and sides trinity, and ilaring in grace
full fullness just back of the hips. 1t
is combination Of the circle front
and sides with three gored plaits in
the back. To give the rounded ap-

from crushing and creasing, they are
interlined with a split sheet of wad-

are held securely in place by being

which is tackled to the inner edges of
the plaits, and the ends are connected
by ribbons and tied so as to give the

A Very Pleasant Affair.

Such was the entertainment given
by the Ladies Aid society of the Pres
byterian church on Wednesday even
ing, In honor of George ashingt0n,
the Father of our country, who was
present i'll the person of Mr.. George
Wilkinson, who made good George
Martha Washington, the Mother of
our country, was represented by Miss
Bertha Crawford, who looked very
much Ike that honorable lady as we
remember her.
y formal reception was carried on
by Mr.. and Mrs. Washington, assisted
by several hOnored ladies and gentle
men, among whom we recognized Mr..
and Mrs. John Adams, tMr. Grafton
Mason and Miss Alice Christie.l Mr..
Pierce Boetler represented an Italian
count, Miss Annie Thompkins as Miss
Curtiss, who contributed very much to
the entertainment by several select
ions upon the violin.
Several other young ladies were in
pleasure Of meeting them, we are com
PEELED to close the list by just saying
they all looked just too sweet for
anything" and we dreamed of beauti-
ful angels etc, all the night.
After fine musical program a dain-
ty supper was served y novel feature
of the entertainment was the money
making part Of the program. Invita-
tons had been issued very generally
throughout the city, and with each in
yitation a little silk bag with the re
quest that YOU each put as many pen
MES III the bag as You are years Old
1t was a strange coinCident that all
the bags returned by ladies contained
sixteen pennies each. But the other
side took their medicine straight and
the result WAS a tally of 5000 pennies
for the Ladies' Aid Society.

The Euclid Wednesday evening 10 discuss
the board OF trade question. and to try and
decide upon some basis of permanent and
active work.
/ Mr.. Il. VI. Todd was chosen chairman OF the
meeting and V. II. Slack secretary. The
chairman said:
Il think it useless for US to expect that

have to do by our own Individual efforts. We
have five times the milling and two times the

J. J. Atkinson. secretary of our present
very passive board OF trade said
While the millerS are interested in hav-
ing more convenient facilities for buying
their grain, the business men of the city are
vitality interested Duluth's board OF trade
makes her the financial center of the head of

piled by the Duluth board Should we wish

Francis b. Clarke President of the Consol-
idated Land company. said
L believe there are many good buildings
along Tower avenue. any one Of which would
answer the purposes OF a board. The main
question i the providing Of facilities. The
Northern Pacific by putting in their yards at
South Superior, have done their part and il
now rests with the Great Northern TO follow.
Two-fifths of the wheat at the head OF the
lake is in East end elevators today, yet Su-

Their wheat. Ninety per cent OF the elevator
companies have their main offices at Mime

branches but talk to the owners. Show
them that it is for their interest TO locate Of

big land companies and business men have
done we'll in securing great industries for
the city. Now let them double the value of
their property by making it possible for
them to do their business here. Some day
Duluth will come to Superior TO transact
business on the board and West Superior

Temperance Union
As many have asked what are
Parlor Socials:" it is well perhaps that
few words be said regarding this
very efficient and popular department
of w. c. 7. L. work which had for
one of its early national superintend
entS Mrs. Margaret Bottome Of world
wide fame as the president of the
Kings Daughters.
AS Is we'll known the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union is a great
moral and intellectual force aud seeks
by education and instruction to bring
about right thinking and right living
in the people Of our nation. But from
large cities, towns and even villages
comes the constantly repeated ques-
ton How shall we reach those who
never come TO our meetings." There
are many who are unacquainted with
the true spirit and method of the w.
{. I. I. work and SO may think little
about it, and for the same reason
Others may even be prejudiced against
1t There are those who work heroic
ally for the fallen and depressed, and
who seek by every means in their pow
er to rescue victims of poverty and
crime who yet regard the work for
temperance in refined and cultured
homes as an idle fancy. We find there
are homes where children seem to be
securely sheltered, in which intelligent
and cultured fathers and mothers sit
at ease all unconscious of the evils
that allure their children into danger
Gus paths, and they often learn it on
ly when it is too late. These vices
find an entrance often through the use
of wine upon the table in the home, at
the dinner party, the evening recep-
ton, or some other social gathering,
sometimes through the cigarette furn-
lShed by some companion, sometimes
by means of some impure suggestion
gent men and women to the reason
ablenesS and advantages Of helping in
the battle for pure hearts and clear
brains is the object of our Parlor
SOcials.
The method Of conducting them
may vary. \ lady well known and
respected places her home at the dis
posal of the society for an evening, in
yitations are sent out either by her
self or by the society. A talk on any
phase of his reform, or upon any de
partment of our work a we'll prepared
paper, Bible reading, a discussion,
distribution of literature, or pledge
signing may be a feature of the pro
gram. This with the personal contact
afforded and with light refreshments
served at a reasonable hour should af
ford a profitable time and bring good
results. We trust these gatherings
may be continued from time to time
and that they may result in what the
union 50 much desires, a larger force
of workers and greater interest in
the work. CON-
