the prophets, and another feature that
was renewed in stylishness at about
the same time with boleros and that
still holds Is the surplice front. These
are a very different affair from that
which was carried out in Shirt waists
a few years ago, as will be seen by the
model Of the third picture. White
cloth was the material, and the bodice
was fitted in back, its overlapping front
being finished with a lace rufFle. 1t had
no belt, but was hooked to the skirt,
and it's deep yoke was finished with
novel revers that were garnished with
lace frills and band of jeweled galloon.
The skirt of this gown was lined with
cerise taffeta and was trimmed In the
manner shown with four wide bands Of
ivory lace. This lace was not outlined
with spangles, and for that reason was
noticeable, so general at present is that
treatment of lace trimming. The cape
shown in the picture was a filmy affair
of ivory lace fastening with white satin
ribbon and having a wired collar.
For an economical trimming there
is nothing better than braid, which is
at the height of its favor. An old dress
can be remodeled with little bother by
just braiding all the seams and setting
scrolls and ornaments about the foot.
A pretty notion is a scroll that clasps
the skirt at about the knees in graceful
curves, the design dipping in front a lit
tie, that the cutoff look may be avoided.
A bodice in surplice effect that shows
even more plainly than the one hereto
fore described how unlike the old sur
plice the new sort is, is put at the right
in the next picture. Like the other, this
bodice had plain back, but the fronts
were laid in pleats at the shoulders and
in the waist, where one side Tapped
over and extended in sort of cascade

and soft leather, Is in as much misery
as is the other girl who is squeezing
her foot. There are shoes in an adap-
tation Of mems cut, on which are heels
curved under the foot like a Louis
XVI, but the particular tailor girl
would rather suffer and put her arched
little foot into fat shoe than permit
herself a mongrel apology for the right
thing. For dress she wears pumps, and
then she is not quite so particular
about their being manly.
A very tasteful bolero was that put
in this second picture, which shows o
gown that was made of steel-gray cloth.

Ranee Horses Tor Japan

Portland Oregonian: The suggestion
that the range horses of eastern oregon
and Washington may find a market in
Japan as cavalry horses, will revive the
interest of stocklnen In neglected in

starve out this undesirable, because lat

abandoning them to the rlgors of the win

treasured over the prospect of shipping
these creatures to Japan, with such reco-

in the fact that they are tough, not

The SLIDING PnIn

F1remen use the sliding poles in the
engine houses when descending from
the dormltOry floors to the street floor
about their ordinary affairs, just as
they do when hustling down for a fire.
1t Is the quickest and easiest way to
go, and naturally they go that way al
ways. To q man not fireman, how
ever, and so unaccustomed to 1t, the
commonplace use of the sliding pole
seems at first strange. He has seen It
usually, perhaps only, from below; and
the use of 1t Is associated in his mind
with the sound Of the gong, the pound
ing of the horses hOofs, the Swapping
Of harness and the general hustle Of
preparation. To see the firemen come
dropping down the sliding poles into
this scene of activity seems all right. II
seems like part of the general scheme.
But If one who has been accustomed
only to seeing them come down the
poles in this way should happen at a
time Of quiet In the house to be on an
upper floor, and instead Of seeing fire.
men shoot into view should see one sud
denly and silently disappear, that sight
probably would at first be surprising to
him.
At first it seems strange to see any
man, fireman or not slide down a pole
to start for his dinner, for instance, but
that is what the fireman does, and 1t is
just the same If he Is going below for
any duty In the house. He goes down
the pole habitually, because that Is the
simplest and easiest way to go. But
he doesn't go back that way; easy as 1t
is to slide down the pole, it would be
mighty hard work to shin up It. When
the fireman goes up, then, like every
body else, he climbs the stairs.-New

have some provision for furnishing lnfor-
nation to those who seek knowledge of
the state and its resources. In times
past this paper has urged this necessity,
but the legislatures have taken the view
that Il was useless expense to collect
and publish such information. Now
that the governor has expressed himself
on the subject, It Is to be hoped that the
public Will give the matter some atten-
ton. 1t will be a good while before there
win be another session of the legislature,

1t Is this desire on the part of many
sensible women to avoid mannishness
that has brought such vogue for trim
med tailor-mades. To this end, trim
ming is not really necessary, but it is
effective and furnishes an easy and
sure relief. So we now see so many
tailor gowns that are elaborated with
much characteristic trimming, that the
tailor cut at last stands more for beauty
than for severity. The first picture here
Illustrates this development, though the
new method Is by no means carried to
extremes in 1t. Made of green boucle

with white, and bias bands of the velvet

various sizes were the only other trim.
