GOOD TASTE IN GOWNS.

The majority of women dread the task
of designing or making up frocks for
girls of fourteen to eighteen years of
age. The young girl is neither a child
nor even in these advanced days a young
lady. Standing, as she does, with re-
luctant feet where the brook and river
meet" the young girl has a right to be
considered and consulted as to her tastes
more than she is. She has as much right
to her individuality as a grown person.
says Emma NJ Hooper in the Ladies'
Home Journal. Two types are usually
representative slight, reed-like figure
and the robust maiden who does not
possess a Wel,-define1 waist. These types
cannot be attired alike, and while keep
ing within the bounds Of common sense,
fashion, and becomingnesS, their ideas
should always be consulted and any la
tent taste in the way of dress should
be encouraged. To keep on dressing a
girl in brown when she fairly longs for
blue is to me unnecessary cruelty. 1t is
far better to have a girl sufficiently
womln.y to appreciate pretty clothes
than to have her so masculine as to
despise them. Select stripes, small checks
and pain goods for a stout figure, and
more fancy effects for the slender girl.
She can riot in figured fabrics, wider
stripes, large plaids and pronounced coll
crs and any amount of fussy trimmings.
Err on the side of dressing girl of this
age too brightly rather than too quietly
She can wear any of the fashionable
colcrs, but brown, navy blue, ecru green,
red pink, cardinal, rosy Vio,et, pale blue,
pink yellow old rose, and bright violet
led are especially wei suited to her
Give her black hose and ties or buttone1
shoes with all dresses, and dark tan
ties in the summer. For nice she will
wear four-button tan or brown gloves
glace kid, pique, silk or Isle thread A
back or blue sun umbrella goes with
any costume, or the Oldest OF misses has
parasol of changeable silk. Have back
gaiterettes for winter wear, and do not
forget TO provide her with an umbrella,
rubber cloak, and rubbers for wet
weather wear. Let her underclothing be
neat and plentiful, but not much
trimmed.
Dress a stout girl in the Swissribbed
under garments to detract from her
sAort-waisted appearance. but the SEN
der figure can wear the fat goods or
loose-itting under vest and DRIVERS. Do
no put corsets on a growing girl but
let her wear a corded waist, of which
there are many good makes, with shoul-
der straps and buttons upon which to
fasten her skirts, stocking supporters.

The Norwegian Methodist Con-
ference in Session.
MUCH GROUND IS COVERED
TOday's Proceedings Will be Full of
Interest to Church People of
All Denominations.

The Norwegian NJ. e. Church was
inaugurated yesterday. morning by Bish-
op Bowman who conducted communion
and administered the sacrament in the
Norwegian Methodist church in Upper
town. At II o'clock Rev. DR.. Hurlbut
spoke to the members of the conference
and a large number of laymen on the
subject of church literature, and more
particularly - the interests Of the tract
society In connection with the pub,ica-
tions in the Norwegian language.
The reports of all the presiding elders
were then handed in. All of them cover
ed great deal of ground, and many
consisted of statistics showing the
amount of work done in different sec
tions of the Northwest during the past
year The reports of Rev. j. c. Larsen,
of San Francisco, and Rev. c. ~ Hauge,
OF Helena, Montana, were particularly
interesting. Both of these gentlemen
went into their operations since the pre-
vious conference, in detail, and their ad-
dresses were listened to with very great
pleasure by all present.
At the afternoon session the Bishops
Cabinet met and Went into committee to
discuss matters connected with the con-
duct of the conference. Rev. DR.. Hurl-
but, who was unfortunately compelled
to leave the city last night to fiji en-
gagements elsewhere, then made an ad-
dress on the success of the Sunday
schools of the NJ. Il. Church. This Iect-
ure was an intellectual treat, and the
speaker discussed the Sunday school
question in most charming manner.
He spoke particularly of the efforts of
teachers, so often seemingly unappre-
ciated but never really so, and urged on
ali instructors the necessity for constant
and faithful devotion to the up-buiiding
of the Sunday schools and the religious
education of the young. In the evening
Rev. Mr.. Wage preached in Norwegian
to large congregation, taking for his
subject Holiness"
Today's proceedings viii be- well
worth listening to. There will be ad-
dresses on many subjects of interest
to all church workers, including talks on
the ''Epworth League" and kindred or
ganizations. Tonight sociable win be
held in the Uppertown church at which
the choir of the First M. e. church will
sing several selections. There viii be
several addresses, and refreshments serv-
ed The impression that the conference
is to be conducted throughout in the
Norwegian language is a mistake ana
this idea probably KEEP many peo-
pie away from yesterdays meetings. The
work is all carried on In the English
language. A pleasing feature of the
conference is the attention being shown
the visiting delegates by the ladies of
the Norwegian NJ. f. Church who are
doing al in their power to entertain
the members of the conference. They
wiz provide lunch in the basement OF
the church for the delegates every day
during the meetings.

and passenger rates for the past thirteen
years ought TO throw some little light on
the decrease in dividends The rate per
ton per mile for freight in 1892 was 1.2S6;
in 1894 II had decreased to 0.S51. The
average rate per passenger per mi.e in
1892 was 2,4l7 cents, while in 1894 It was
but 2O3 cents. A decrease of one-third in
freight rates has undoubtedly played its
part in the reduction Of dividends In
addition to the exhaustive statements of
railroad affairs given in the Manual, the
usual appendix Is published, showing the
debt of every state in the Union, and also
of counties and leading cities. These
details are invaluable for reference by
statistical writers and add in no small
thority.

HOW THEY FEEL ABOUT IT.
What Business Men Say About Street
improvements.

improvements.
The remarks made by number OF
prominent merchants about town indicate
that there Is more than a passing senti-
ment concerning the matter of a 1cacad-
amized road on the pipe line. A concen-
sus of opinion shows that it is deemed
most important step for the city just
at this time.
There are many reasons it is stated.
why 1t Is IL matter of paramount i'm
portance to this city to have a good
driveway and there are also good rea-
sons why the city should purchase O
crusher and roller for street purposes.
One of the principal points in favor of
the road is the fact that we have no
good driving streets or bouievards ana
now that one Is graded for twelve miles
Is most advantageous,y located and viii
In time become one of the most beau
tiful drives in the state and is suscepti-
Bile of endless additional attractions in
the way of parks and pleasure grounds,
it would seem pity that its Use should
be lost to the people for the lack Of the
expenditure of a few hundred dollars in
paving, While all of the material, ma
chnery and men are on the ground and
the work can now be done 10 per cent
cheaper than it would cost in the future
after the present facilities are removed.
Winter is coming on and the men need
work, labor Is consequently cheap ana
while 1t would Keep many employed at
living wages, stfl 1t would cost the city
less than to have the work done under
other circumstances, when the machinery
and possibly the men would have to be
imported.
Another important point to be consider
ed is that with the heavy crusier, 20
Gated at a quarry. and with roller fully
equal to all future demands it does ap-
pear that it would be poor policy, to
say the least, to allow them to be re-
moved when in the next few years it is
certain that large street improvements
win be made. The city does not want
a small crusher or a small roller that can
do Only limited amount of work. 1t
Always costs more money to do public
work on so small a scale.
The business men are fully awake to
the situation and from their remarks
