In A public meeting at Hilo call
ed to consider prospective legisla-
ton, two subjects, one of which
has received not little attention in
Honolulu, were prominent. There
was strong and earnest advocacy of
the plan Of extension of public aid
to the Kindergarten. The age
limits in the free schools at present
are and IS. Those at Hilo inter-
ested in the matter suggest provis-
sion for instruction to begin with
Government help at the age OF
three. AS THE STAR has said, this
is the rule in many States of the
American Union. The youngsters
ofthe day are the citizens of the years
to come and the country is simply
acting on the raiup day principle
when it does the very best it can on
behalfof fitting the children for use
full lives. At the same Hilo meeting
an appeal was made for hospital
for that place.

AS Is suggested in local item
today the Honolulu hoodlum, in
his new role Of Fostering the night
school, should be promptly and eff
fectually suppressed. The police
has heretofore abated such nuisance
and will doubtless be just as aggres-
sive in this new instance. The
hoodlums have practically ceased
to interrupt the band concerts.

THE special report of the Board
of Health upon the cholera epidemic

BESIDES giving reception which
was attended by all the prominent
people at Washington, Mr.. and
Mrs. Hatch have entertained Sec

recipients of many social attentions.
At the reception Mrs. Hatch was
assisted by Mrs. w. G. Irwin of
Honolulu, Mrs. Hastings, Mrs. J.

SUMNER STATIONERY.
Novelties of the Smartest Sort in
Paper, Stamps and Perfumed Blot
ters.

There are a half dozen new quaint con-
ceits in purely summer stationery All
the simple conventional sizes of linen
and bank note paper, in the STANDARD
tints and monograms, are still used by
conservative women and for serious oc-
casions, but nearly every owner of
prettily appointed escretoire keeps a
drawer and pigeon hole constantly re-
freshed with the whimsical little. modes
in cards, sheets and envelopes
One OF the most attractive notions is
the big pale blue and very thin sheet,
on only one side of which one writes. A
whole letter is put on that one side and
then the sheet is folded square, two of
Its edges stuck down, and behold an old
style letter, without an envelope, is ready.
On the broad blank SIDE left by folding,
the address and stamp are placed and
the effect is very similar to old family
letters bearded in attic trunks The faded
blue, in thinnest linen paper, is supposed
to be used for foreign correspondence
only, while a very odd thick ridged sheet
in waves and blotches of brown and yell
low, is called 1880 paper, since it is clever
ly stained in exact imitation of times
ravages among epistles so years old
The 1880 paper comes in big double square
sheets and very smart persons do not
mucilage down the folded edges, but lib
orally splash on plenty of sealing wax
and stamp with a, huge ring seal.
AS is so frequently the case fashion
temporarily adopts two extremes, and
one either writes on very large or very
small sheets and tiny, perfectly square

envelope of the new nut brown or Jer-
sey cream cartridge paper is very mod
ish indeed The cream is such deep
ivory tint as to be almost yellow and
the brown is the shade of a dried Eng
lish walnut shell. The texture Of the
paper is thick and fbrous looking like
the cartridge paper on ones walls, but
the surface is quite agreeable for the
finest pen. Instead of coat of arms or
monogram stamped on the pages of this
paper, it is the custom in clear raised,
red printed letters to have the date
July f. 1S96-clearly written out, is for
example what tops the page and one
buys of this sort of stationery a months
supply, calculating to write at least one
note day. Only red or black lettering
is used for this special purpose. With
the tinted paper in ordinary colors and
showing an initial name of country house,
or name of day; this stamping is done on
the top Of the inside of the first page.
The whole note is written on the inside
pages and then directly it is finished,
before the ink is dry a single sheet of
japanese blotting paper is dropped be-
tween the two pages of still wet words.
This blotting paper is, of course, just the
size of the note leaves and is really a
piece of tissue paper woven thick, soft
and printed with the prettiest little shad-
owy colored Japanese designs: Some
authors of tiny flying notes delicateiy
perfume their blotting leaves and on open
ing ones billet aawhiff of sweet odor falls
out with the fairy plotting pad.
The very up-to-date country house own
ers have borrowed an idea for their sta
tionery from the proprietors of summer
hotels. At the top of cream laid sheet,
is inscribed a tempting invitation, APP
pears a charming pen and ink sketch of
the home one IS asked to visit. This
site at the top in the center of the page
while beneath it is printed the name
of the residence and to either side the
full address, postoffice and telegraph di-
rections. This, Of course, looks very like
the summer hottS letter heads, saving
that the original drawing for ones .pri-
vate country house note paper is usually

FRoU-FRoU STYLES.
They are much be-fiounced, one frill
over the other and the last one very deep,
with the lace edgings put on plain or
finely knife-plaited- or else the founces
showing the trout cording so much in
favor for silk skirts. Those in the fine
India and French lawns have sometimes
the deep top f1ounce made of horizontal
tween lace entire-deuX. The bottom of
this may be left straight and edged with
a deep lace put on plain.
Again this founce may be shaped up
into points and finished with a full frill
of lace: shorter lace-trimmed frills show
ing between the points and giving a
charming furbelowed look.
PRETTY PETTICOATS
All petticoats are made to fit snugly
about the hips and very wide at the bot
tom. Commonly the top shows a yoke
at the front and sides, and a, casing at
the back, through which a ribbon is run,
enables the wearer to draw it into de-
sired limits.
A Swiss petticoat with the back
breadths covered entirely with corded
founces is one device for holding even
ing skirts out at this point.
SUMMER NIGHT GOWNS.
A tiny square called the Marguerite
neck is a feature of many of the sum-
mer night gowns. These are most becom-

however. is so shallow that it shows lit

ly fat Marguerite neck is a comfort
able privilege that may be widely enjoyed.
Many of the nigntdresses have round
or square yokes made separately. Other
yokes are simulated by tucking the gar
ment itself and inserting entre-deux of
lace and embroidery between, the whole

NEW YORK. June 21.-In the evolution

quite an elegant air.
OTHER UNDER GARMENTS.
Drawers are all cut very wide and very
short. Methods of trimming the bottoms,
though, vary enormously, so that in this
line, at least simplicity may be said to
be the fashion as much elaborateness.
An extraordinarily wide shape is called
''ballerino' and this is so fiounced and
ribbon trimmed that it has quite the air
of short divided skirt.
Some Of the drawers have a. deep lace
flounce put on slantingly, shorter at the
outer than the inner leg.
The bottoms of another sort are cut in
the shape of huge scallop also shorter
at one point than the other; but what
ever the trimming below, the heading
is commonly of some sort of ribbon run
beading, with ends of the ribbon escaping
to tie somewhere in a bow or rosettes.
UNDER WAISTS.
Corset covers OF wash silk and fine
lawns are made in the boilers shape
which ties gracefully in scarf ends at the
bust, and are trimmed simply all round
with a narrow edge of lace.
There are also others in the old cor
set body shape, with the bust trimmed
as of yore with tucks and embroidery;
but there is every sign that the chemise
will in time do away with this garment
entirely. For the chemise is back again,
praise to the fashion makers! Daintier

cheaper, of course, than the frazier dimi-

they are also less desirable.
SILK, likewise, is less in favor than the
delicate cottons, though from its dura-
