An eclectic article elsewhere,
headed mobility in Hard Lines"
by the way, "royalty" was the
word used in the paper from
which it was cut--mentions the
present Premier of Great Britain
as having once worked with pick
and shovel in the Australian gold
mines. This is a fact that has
been heard related by Australians
in Honolulu. Perhaps this is one
reason of Lord Salisbury's sue
cess in undermining the diploma

came Minister to France he
devoted a good deal of his
time to the conduct of his pa
per, the Tribune. The copy
editors who put. up the head
lines Of stories of the day fell
into the habit OF making most
of them interrogative, as, for
instance, "Was it murder or
Suicide?" or did she kill him
for love?" or Twill the Presi-
dent sign it," etc.
The whole paper was speck-
led with interrogative points.
The thing had been going for
weeks, till one day a postal ar
rived, addressed to Mr.. Reid,
and marked personal. 1t read
as follows:
"pm getting awful tired of
your questions. Why don't
you find out something? A
great newspaper is supposed to
know everything, and ought
not to annoy its readers with
needless inquiries. This morn
ing you asked: Twill Mr..

That night an order came
that the Tribune must ask few
er questions.
In spite of Whitelaw Reds
experience we are tempted to
ask the people of Hawaii few
leading questions, just an even
half a dozen of them.

QUESTION2-Have you seen

are beauties and they only cost
from $3.50 to $3.50 according
to style.
QUESTION: -Have you seen

QUESTION 4-Have you seen

rainy season is coming on and
they are just what you want.
They are cheap, Clearly and
indeStruCtible.
QUESTION 5-Have you seen
the RAIN GAUGES we have
lately imported? With one of
these little instruments you
can laugh at the Clerk of the
Weather and give him point
er after every storm.
QUESTIONo-Haveyou seen
the latest thing out? 1t is a
portable bootblack stand, made
of iron, which can be screwed
to a post anywhere and moved
in any direction. Must be seen
to be appreciated. Complete

ular Marie Antoinette fichus, made OF

by the way, can be bought ieadymade

latter were of fine spun silk with lace
insertions let in at the instep. They
were dainty and pretty enough to suit
the most fastidious taste.
The new evening wraps in somber
black are at first glance rather de-
pressing, but they are the correct thing
just now, and the edict has gone forth
that their trimmings must be of Thibet
and their Innings of satin.
One handsome one | noticed was of
black bengaline lined with pink bro
caded satin and trimmed with an enur-
nous collar and cascades in front OF
Thibet fur. Another model in black
satin hung straight from the neck in
domino fashion, was satin-lined
throughout and had immense sleeves
which were lined with green miroir
velvet. An ideal garment for its pur-
pose, but one needing a tall woman
to exploit it's charms. Most outer gar
ments do demand this requirement, |
think, excepting only the chic Eton
jacket, which looks at its best when
worn by short woman.
The cape in the picture shows the
best model for dressy evening wrap.
This particular one is made of mirCir
velvet, with liniags of satin in a faint
shade of rose anG trimmed with SOFT

cloth and velvet show much trimming
of lace, but / do not advocate its use

oleomargarine. But when the test cases
were brought before the courts 1t was
demonstrated that the materials used
were not in themselves injurious, and
that the inventor as secure in the pos
session of his patent The manufacture
and sale continued and other inventions
followed, so that cheap butter" came
to be available for those who are unable
to buy the pure product of the cow and
the churn.
One of the examiners at the potent
Office says that the principal features
of all butterines is milk in some form.
This preparation of milk is mixed with
butter, thus making a combination
which is cheaper than when pure but
ter is solely used. Very often extracts
of animal fats are used, but when prop
erly prepared are said to be entirely
unobjectionable from hyg1enic stand
point. The fact of the matter is that
these prepared buffers are so much like
the genuine article in appearance that
it is difficult to distinguish the differ
ence, and / imagine that the majority
CT people who eat oleomargarine do so
under the impression that they are eat
ing butter made entirely from the milk
of the cow.
There is no harm done except when
the manufacture is dishonest, but in
these days the adulteration of food is
carried to such an extent that it is i'm
possible, even with a large purse, to
escape using them in some measure.
The only way to do, think, is to trust
that we will be saved from such risks,
L l. <~E
travel and the other misfortunes which
are likely to befall us all.
The small farmers and dairymen OF
the western states, even under existing
laws, complain to their senators and
representatives that the artificial but
ter is sold in small packages by retail
dealers in country stores at such low
prices that they have almost. no mar
ket for their little surplus of genuine
butter which formerly afforded rev.
enue upon which they had long depend
ed as a part of the annual incomes of
their farms and retail business ven
lures. In order to give these citizens
some protection Senator Henderson,
of Nebraska, in the last congress intro
duced and urged the passage of bill
which provided that "alI oleomargarine
shall be packed by the manufacturer in
frkins, tubs or other packages of wood
or tin, each containing not less than
one pound, marked, stamped and
branded as the commissioner of inter
nal revenue shall prescribe; and all
sales shall be in original stamped
packages" The bill also provided for
a tax OF two cents per pound on all oleo-
margarine manufactured and offered
for sale.
OF course those farmers and small
dairymen who have access to the large
markets need no protection Of this ma
ture. Their pure butter commands a
good price, and there is great demand
for it. But the farmer who only has
butter for sale once a month knows
nothing of the speculative character Of
the market, or else his product is so
small annually that he cannot afford
to reach out for the metropolitan mar

at the beginning of the season, they
require the same superabundance of
material as their predecessors.
The same may be written of the new
skirt. With the coming of each month
now the amount of goods necessary to
construct the skirt fashionable is some
thing wonderful to contemplate, and
wonderfully depicting to the purse as
well.
And so by these and other signs do
our hopes of economy in dress sink
lower and lower.
Most women are very fond of fine
raiment and adore stylish up-to-date
garments. No matter how good reso-
lutions in the direction of economy in
dress may be, visit to the modiste or
a walk through State street with it's
alluring shop windows cause the fair
shopper to slide imperceptibly into the
atmosphere of new gowns, new bon
nets and new things generally, and
once in their tolls she finds it impos-
sible to eXtricate herself. In Short
to be practically economical nowadays,
one must be crumpish, which in itself
gives the impression of a want of van
ity that is foreign, or ought to be, to
womankind.
Now that the social season is upon
us-you know it doesn't begin until
after the holidays-our minds natural
ly turn to evening and reception gowns
and in looking around for something
new in this line [ came across some
charming models.
found most of the reception dresses
made of either cloth, silk or velvet, and
invariably trimmed with lace and fur

creamy tint seems to be the proper
thing.

1 might mention in passing that an

I might mention in passing that an
evening gown may be as simple or elab-
crate in the matter of trimming as
ones taste and circumstances will adj
NIT, but very few women, even of the
very wealthy class, buy the best ma
terial for these gowns.
The very prettiest one have seen
thus far was made of satin that cost
only a dollar a yard, the simple garni-
ture being ruches of the same and ma
tural flowers. This grade of satin will
usually bear two cleanings, after which
it is better to veil it under chiffon when
it will have every appearance of a new
gown.
am sorry to note the growing ten
dency to lengthen the skirts of all
gowns, particularly those intended for
home and evening wear. They are close
ly gored at the top, though of course
this depends much upon the figure of
the wearer, and all are cut to flare from
six to ten yards at the foot. The latest
fancy is to accentuate the many seams;
and one / saw yesterday had this novel
idea,very prettily carried out. 1t was
composed of cream-tinted satin, the
very wide skirt being cut with Is cores,
each gore being outlined by narrow
pearl and gold passementerie. The low
cut bodice was made entirely of beauti-
full lace placed over satin, while at the
front was the quaintest bow imagin-
able, made of satin ribbon in a vivid
shade Of green edged with pearl and
gold beads and wired to stand out stiff
and straight.
Another smart gown had the skirt,
which was of the new short-haired
plush called oriental satin, trimmed in

with it was a Louis XIV. coat in ruby

sive.
Between the present time and the be-
ginning of lent many debutantes will
make their first bow to society, and
within the week l have seen some
charming gowns to be worn by these
novices. Lyons tulle seems to be the
preferred material for these dresses,
and many of them are made with very
full skirts and short baby waists-a
style exceedingly simple and girlish,
and generally becoming.
Others more elaborate, of dainty silk
in snowy whiteness, are designed after

kets, and consequently he is brought
into ruinous competition with the man
ufacturers of the article which is pat
ented, and which is produced so
cheaply.
The tax of two cents per pound would
necessarily require the retailer of oleo-
margarine to raise the price of his
product; and that part of the bill meets
with the objection that it compels poor
people to pay more for what they are
willing to buy and use instead of pure
butter. OF course it would raise rev.
enue for the government, but all of it
would come out of the pockets of the
poorer people. There is no objection,
however, to the requirement that small
packages shall be stamped and branded
so that the purchasers may know ex-
actly what they are getting. Under
existing law, dealers can buy oleomar-
garine, properly branded, in ten-pouad
packages, and retail pounds and half
pounds without informing customers
that it is not pure butter. The large
manufacturers of oleomargarine, how
ever, are likely to employ expert lob
byists to prevent the passage of the bill
if they can do so.
