j. A. Ninck was arrested at Walla
Walla this week charged with obtaining
money under false pretence in having
collected life insurance premium with
out giving the policy, it being found aft
erward that he had no authority to act
for the company. Ninck will be remem-
bered in this city, he having been here
for three or four months last fall solicit
ing life insurance. While here he
boarded at the Artesian hotel, and was
known about town as "the count" prob
ably because of his German accent, his
important bearing and general lack of
funds. While at Winona, on the line of
the O. r. q N, during the heavy storm
last November, party from Pullman
ran across the 'count" who was then
en- route for Walla Walla afoot, and who
was soliciting insurance at the farm
houses along the way. He said he found
walking better than riding; probably be-
cause it was cheaper.

kane, where part of the n. p. track
disappeared this week, they made an at
tempt to find the bottom Of
the mysterious sink hole. A pile was
driven down into the mud, another
spliced to its top, and so on till 1876 feet
of piling had been driven down toward
China, but when operations were stopped
the pile was going down at the rate of
five inches at each stroke of the pile
driver, there apparently being no resist
ance except the pressure on the sides to
the downward course.
DR.. S. B. Nelson, the college veter-
marian, was called to Palouse Monday
to examine some horses belonging to o.

equines were suffering with glanders. He
found that one of the horses was in bad
condition from the dread disease, and
ordered it killed. He will again visit
that district, and make a thorough in
vestigation, and see that every effort is
put forth to prevent the spread of the
malady so fatal to horse flesh.

Mourning garments are not the
ugly shaped things they once We're,
but are made in strict conform ity to
the modes of the day. Eudora cloth
is very popular for mourning wear.
The little breakfast jacket has be-
come necessity to every woman,
and upon it she lavishes her store of
originality in the use of material,
the style Of make, and the combi-
nation Of colorS.
As autumn comes We may make
slight changes in the trimming of
dainty lawns, organizes, and swisses
and lay them away for informal
evening wear during the winter
season.
The present prospect is that the
sleeves will maintain the present
proportions and form for the whole
season. The tight arm and the stiff
little puff at the top which serves to
hold the more or less elaborate cap
in place will, with variations, doubt
less be the style.
Costumes of pure white, from
parasol to shoe, are one of the pre-
vailing fashions in summer dress,
and they are worn morning, noon
and night, in all the varying grades
of elegance or simplicity.
Short boleroS and Etons made of
cut-work and embroidery, lined
with thin tinted silk of some be-
coming color, are considered very
smart with any sort of light summer
gown. They give a pretty finish
that is both chic and dainty.

or dark hued surface side and pro-
ducing an effective color mixture.
Tan, brown, navy, green and gray
coverts will frequently show an en-
livening tinge of red, or plum will
mingle tremendously with green,
the latter color being woven at the
back. Fine checks and stripes pre-
vail in some kinds of smooth cloths
and cheviOts. There is never n sea-
sou in which mixed tweeds and
cheviots are not popular and some
interesting effects are promised for
this one. Tricot returns from an al
most remote past, but, like all re-
vived fashions, with difference.
The new weave suggests wavy lines
that run across in accordance with
the fancy for bayadere effects, the
cloth being shown in the popular
color mixtures.

This Jubilee year has revived
many of the early Victorian styles
and is said to be responsible for the
new POmpadour hair dressing.
When at all becoming the Pompa-
dour is most kind, as it makes face
seem more youthful and large feat
ures apparently smaller. 1t is not
difficult of arrangement. The front
hair is brushed straight upward and
drawn back over small hair cush-
ion, thus raising the hair, halo fash
ion, around the face. When the
hair is not thick it is slightly waved
before it is arranged over the roll.
A less severe style of hair dressing
is to Pompadour the front and
arrange the short hair on the temples
in Hat, round curls, subsequently
combing them out until fluffy.
trizzes have gone out and few if
any curls are now worn. Side
combs were never so popular, and
they grow longer and longer, late
designs resembling the old ear-to-ear
combs for children. These combs
are put in after the hair is arranged
over the roll, but must not destroy
the rotundity of the Pompadour.
There are also sets of three combs,
each four inches long, for the
Pompadour. Combs are a necessity
for this style of hair dressing since
the slightest wind would otherwise
rumple it.-Fashion Exchange.

A little tact and ingenuity are
much more etfectual than punish
ment in many cases and a great saw
ing of temper. There are times, no
doubt, in every family when fault
and its consequences must be en-
phasized by some sort of punish
ment, but don't point your moral
with slipper. Let the punishment
come as nearly as possible in line
with the fault. Make it logical
consequence, not an arbitrary act,
for these little people reason quite AS
clearly as we do from cause TO effect
and appreciate quite as readily the
force Of a striking argument. After
all, it is not rules and regulations,
although they may be of the best,
which develop the character of the
child. 1t is the mental and moral
atmosphere in which he lives. To
rule ones household wisely is not
an art that comes by intuition; it de-
mands serious thought and our best
energies.-House and Home.

Recipes For Hard Sauce.

Hard sauces are preferred by mos
persons to liquid ones. One that is
very good is made by rubbing to a
cream two cupfuls of brown sugar
and one cuptul of butter, adding
three tablespoonfuls of milk, one by
one, at the last, and beating the
whole at least one hour. A tea
spoonful of vanilla should be stirred
in just before serving. Another
sauce is made from one cupful of
graduated sugar and nearly one
half cupful of milk, boiled togeth-
er to thick syrup, and then stirred
until cool, when it may be favored ;
or two cupfuls of brown sugar, one
and one-half cupfuls of milk, and
butter the size of a walnut may be
boiled to the consistency of honey
and then straiued.-EXchange.

Our habits of thought make us
what We are. To think of wrong
doing with desire to do wrong is
one form Of evil. 1t is the prelimi-
nary step which may lead at any
moment of temptation to open
degradation. As my thoughts are,
SO will my life be, is an memorable
law which no juggling can modify
aud no repentance, however bitter,
can annui.

Pillows.

Sleeping on a pillow is not con
ducive either t. health or beauty,
and is one of the pernicious habits of
an etfete civilization.
Raising the head higher than the
rest of the body is by no means II
natural, but rather an artificial pc
sition. Were children accustomed
from their infancy, to lie perfectly
fiat while sleeping, they would feel
no Inconvenience whatever, but to
take away the head support from
those who have always used it seems
hardship indeed.
Barbarous nations are generally as
straight as an arrow, due in great
measure to lying with the head and
heels on level. The stopping shout
ders and the head craned forward
are all too often the result of the
pillow habit, the upper part Of the
body naturally curving TO conform
to the unnatural posture.
BY all means let us abolish the alb
surd and disfiguring pillow.-EX-

A woman's true world is very

Women have more strength in
their looks than men have in our

than men have by their arguments.

Woman is the Sunday of man; not
his repcse only, but his JOY, the salt
of his life.-Michelet.

SCr0fula,
Skin EruptiOnS.

Scrofula, Eczema, letter and SINH
lar diseases cannot be cured by local
applications of ointments and lini-
rnents, for the disease is in the blood,
and can only be reached by blood
remedy.
S. S. $. (Swift's Specific) is far ahead
of other blood remedies because it does
so much more. 1t promptly reaches
and cures the most obstinate and
deep seated diseases which they have
no effect upon whatever.
Mr.. Thomas N. Tinney, of Corpus
Christi, Texas, writes:
The Columbia herald. [volume] (Columbia, Tenn.) 18??-1935, 1897-08-20
THE
RIGHT
REMEDY.

This S. S. S. proved to be, for as I
continued its use grew better, and
was finally cured completely of dis
ease which had cursed my life for
years, and had withstood the treat
ment of many so-called blood RENE
dies, as we'll as of the best physicians.
S. S. S. also cured me of a severe case
of rheumatism. 1t is the only real
blood remedy on the market"
1t is not difficult to be cured of any
blood disease, if the right treatment is
given. S. S. S. is the only positive
cure for Contagious Blood Poison,
Scrofula, Cancer, Eczema, Rheuma-
tism, or any other deep-seated blood
disease, for it promptly reaches the
seat of the trouble. 1t is the only
