trimmings of embroidery ON white cloth or

broidery. These goods arc employed for
vests, plastrons, collars and rovers.
There are three influences now acting
upon the mode, lingering remembrance
Of the empire fashions modifying tho new
or valois and Louis Seize modes-newer,
that Is, In the way of fashionable revival.
Among these three types there should be
something suitable for every woman, with
more or less modification. Tho empire
style Is one which does not combine well
with Others and which Is the antithesis of
the rococo fashions of Louis Quinze and
Louis Seize, being severe and classical in
Its principles, which are copied from the
antique. The eighteenth century Styles on
the other hand, are coquettish, full OF de-
tail and absolutely wrong from the Greek
standpoint which demands repose, dignity
and pure harmony In all schemes of dress
and decoration.
In spite Of the cry that different bodices
ara out of date many of the best Parisian
modistes are making costumes In which
the skirt and bodice are not lust alike
The picture, for example, shows an even

of rose satin, while the corsage is of whito
silk gauze gathered over u fitted lining of
rose satin. The square decolletage is bor-
dered by ruche of gauze. Bretellies of
rose satin arc fastened on the shoulders by
coques of satin. The gauze sleeves are en-

with rose bows. A knot of rose satin is
placed at the front of the decolletage, and
the belt is of rose satin.

There seems to be no diininution In the

patrol the sum had been increased
to $r4o, 900. The patrol was a very
efficient force, and the Executive
would like to keep it on. Rep. Ry-
croft moved that the item be referred
to a committee.
Rep. Richards desired to call the
attention of the members to the
fact that over 5000, 900 was being
appropriated for policing the island
Of Oahu.
Minister Smith said the member
should remember that one-third of
the police population Of the islands
was in Oahu. In the district of
Hilo last year there were 500 cases,
while in the District Court of
Honolulu alone there were o37o
cases during the same time. Re.
terred.
Pay Of jailors, guards and lunas
of prisoners, $55, 900 was referred
to the Finance Committee on mo-
tion of Rep. Winston.
Kep. Rycroft moved that the
seven items aggregating $34o, 600
in the Bureau of Public Instruction
be referred to a committee.
Minister Smith moved that the
first four items pass. Salary Of in
spector-general, including travelling
expenses, $6, 500; salary of
deputy;inspector and school agent,
$1,000 salary of clerk and secretary,
$1,000. Messenger and book clerk
$1,000.
Rep. Robertson moved that the
item creating the new office of
Deputy Inspector and School Agent
be stricken out. He was in favor
OF retrenchment in the expenses of
the Government. The Government
employees were well paid, began
work late and quit early. They
should be made to do some hard
work.
Minister Smith thought that if the
member would think the matter
over he would note the necessity
of an officer who should be execu-
tive officer.
Rep. Robertson's motion to kill
the Office was lost.
Motion to refer the entire items
in the Bureau Of Instructions to the
Education Committee carried.
Rep. Richards moved to refer
items of the Commission of Public
Lands to the Committee on Public
Lands. Carried.
The Speaker announced the fol-
lowing select committee to whom
was referred all the items in the
Postal and Customs Departments:

1t is convenient to know one or two in
genius devices for covering the ordinary
pot.

employed for special decoration lamp
shades of futed paper are placed over
the coarse earthenware, or Japanese pa
per napkins are pinned about it in some
fanciful fashion. For window plants,
however, something more durable is re-
quired, and pretty covers may be made
of pasteboard cut fan shaped to fit the
pot and fastened together in funnel
form, with manuscript clamps. The
right size and shape may be ascertained
by holding piece Of paper smoothly
around the pot and creasing the line
where the edges come. Before the PASTE
board is fastened together it may be
covered with china silk, paper or other
material, the edge Of which must be
neatly turned over on the inside and

Salary of clerk to sheriff, Hawaii,
81, 200.
Rep. Richards moved to have
this item struck out. Minister
Smith said that the office was a
necessity. The sheriff was not ex-
pected to do the clerical work. He
had to be about the island, Rep.
Rycroft was in favor of the item.
Passed.
Salary of clerk of sl,eriH, Kouo;,
5000. Rep. McBryde desired 10
know why the appropriations for
the Island of Kauai were so much
lower than those for Maui and Ha.
waii. He understood Kauai paid
$50, 900 in taxes, $50 more than
Maui. Minister Smith said that it
was because the residents of Kauai
was law abiding lot and the duties
of the police were not arduous. 1t
was quite the opposite. The item
passed as in the bill.
Salary of Deputy-Sheriff, Puma,
5000.
Rep Rycroft thought that this
item should be raised little. The
salary is not sufficient to pay for
horse shoes. Puma was twenty
seven miles from Hilo. The magis-
trate's Office was in the centre of the
district. He would move that the
item be increased to $1,000.
Minister Smith read from the re-
port of the Chief Justice showing
thirty-nine cases in the Puma dis
trlct for the years 1894 and 1895.
There were very few people in Puma,
Mr.. Rycroft and few others.
Rep. Rycroft said that several
new plantations have been started
in the Puma district and there had
oeen large influx of Japanese. On
motion of Rep. Richards the item
passed as in the bill.
Pay of police, $46, 500, was re-
ferred to the Committee on Finance.
Pay ofpolice, Maui, $3r, 900, was
on motion of Rep. Robertson, re-
ferred to the Finance Committee.
Salary of deputy-sheriff, Kauai,
$I9oo.
Rep. Kaeo moved that the item
be increased to $4,000. The deputy
sheriff of the district of Waimea was
receiving $4,000. and it was pro.
posed to only give the deputy-sher-
iff of the island $1,000 Minister
Smith stated that the district of
Waimea was very populous dis.
trict and this official had more re-
sponsibility. The item passed as
in the bill.
Rep. Richards would like infor-
nation on the items for police.
There was in the bill $4,000 for
deputy-sheriffs on Kauai, and SIS
900 for the police on the same
island. On Maui the deputy-sher-
ifs were getting over $4,000 and the
police $1,000
Minister Smith explained that 1t
was owing to the rocky roads and
gulches which required a large
number of police. The deputy
sheriffs represent the Government
as prosecuting officers in their re-
spective districts

1t was in the line of promotion.

and in good order, it may be profitably
fed by mixing with it any one the
numerous concentrated foods, which
can usually be produced at low prices

the raising of such crops as oats and
peas, cowpeas, corn, rye, barley, etc,
as fodder crops, and believe everything
should be saved for silo or NOW, and

This is not the day in which We can

In the latter case if the grass be cut

still adhere to the advisability of plow-

in the practice on light and sandy soils
