"Ever since spinning was a type of
womanly industry from age to age, it has
been expected that beautiful apparel should
clothe women. From the classic robes of
Aspnsia to the rich dresses of Elizabeth,
and thence to the wedding gown of Pur-
itan Priscilla we sec the attractiveness of
dress."' But at this time only has it be-
come possible for all women to he becom-
ingly nttired at Il small cost, the supply of
beautiful inexpensive dress fabrics now to
be had making it an easy matter. Yet
there are women who insist that the ex-
pense of having summer gowns Numbered
is greater than the original cost, and that
in the end light woolens or summer silks
are more economical. This is n mistaken
idea, as washing pretty belongings is fino
art, which is very easy to learn. Any girl
no matter how delcately reared can wash
her own summer gown. A bright day
plenty of water, and Il little pure soap are
the necessary aids in the work. To do it,
fill tub two-thirds full of warm water,
dissolve fourth of cake of Ivory Soap,
(Which will not fade the most delicate
colors), add it to the water, wash the gar
ments carefully through it, rinse first in
clear water, then in blue water, wiring,
dip in thin starch, hand on the line in the
shade. When dry, sprinkle, and iron on
wrong side. Eliza r. Parker.

On Septuagesima Sunday, 1922, at the

alighted a footman dressed in deer

THE PRESENT GOVERNMENT CAN
TAKE CARE OF ITSELF.
Annexation to Come Up Early Under
the Mckinley Administration Z
Come Up at the Extra Session.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2O.-t prob
ably official statement of eX-Queen
Liliuokalani in the Star, defining her
position in Hawaii, and alleging that
her abdcation is not binding. eXcites
no alarm in Congress among the
friends of the Republic.
The members of the foreign rela-
tions committees of both houses did
not feel disposed today to discuss the
latest contribution of her eX-higness
to history. The fact is that Liliuo-
kalani is regarded as the most defunct
monarch in the world. Her presence
in Washington has not excited the
least comment in foreign relations cir
cles, and she is looked upon simply as
curiosity. The sentiment in Con-
gress is that the present Government
can take care of itself until some dis
position is made by this country of
the question of annexation, which is
Kinley administration. 1t may come
up at the extra session.
There is no fear that Liliuokalani
will be able to agitate matters enough
here or elsewhere to overturn existing
affairs, or that she will have strength
enough to do the least bit of harm in
this country against the government
which ousted her from the throne.
There is strong suspicion that she
| begins to think that the sympathy of
/ this country is with her to some eN-
tent but this mistaken impression
reaches her through her over-enthus-
iastic secretary He recently rejoiced
in the fact that twenty-five Congress
men had sent cards to call on "her
majesty" as he invariably calls her.
| His impression. as seen through his
royal glass, is that this is signifi-
cant.

MADE AN ORPHAN BY A BRUTAL
STEPFATHER.
Miss Lilly Miller, Travelling Com
panion of Mrs. Capt. Carlson, Re-
ceives Sad News in This City.

The latest files of the Chronicle,
from San Francisco, bring sad news
to Miss Lily Miller, the travelling COM
panion and nurse of Mrs. Capt. Carl
son, of the schooner Fred L. Sanders.
On February 22d, at Port Blakely,
Wash, her step father, charles f. Mil
Ter, shot and killed the girls mother,
and then turned his pistol upon him
self, inficting serious, but not neces-
sarily fatal, wounds. The following
brief account of the affair is culled
from the dispatches, printed on the
day the Australia sailed:
The people of Port Blakely, the big
mill town, were reused to great
pitch of excitement today by a cruel
murder. The murderer is Charles f.
Miller, a sailor, and the victim was his
wife, Caroline Miller. After killing the
woman Miller shot himself twice, but
he will not die.
"When the news of the killing
spread the mllmen of Blakeley were
wild. Miller was in the hands of a con-
stable. When the managers of the mill
saw that there would be a hanging
bee unless something was quickly
done, they started the machinery and
put the men to work. When the 5
o'clock whistle blew, however, and the
workmen were released, they gathered
again determined to hang the muir
derer. The constable saw the danger
and made his way down to the wharf
with his prisoner, closely followed BY
ready. The officer got his man on
board a steamer and came across the
bay to this city, where Miller is now
confined in the County Jail.
Mrs. Miller's body was also brought
here. The Millers had lived at Port
Blakeley for two years. The man had
worked at odd jobs around the mill
and his wife had also worked out
among the families in the town. Mil.
Ter had frequently beaten his wife
Five months ago Miller went away on
the Laura Madsen and returned only
five months ago. No one saw the deed
but there is not doubt of the mans
guilt"
Miss Miller is only sixteen years OF
age, bright, pretty girl who is a
great favorite with Capt. Carlson and
his wife, and, in fact, all who know
her. Through her step fathers rash
act she is left alone in the world. Al
ready steps have been taken by the
skipper in port to see that she does
not suffer. They wanted to make NJ
a purse for her, but she would rather
be independent, and so a good home
will be found for her instead.
! Miss Miller left home only last No
vember. She told Capt. Carlson tina
her step father neglected and abused
his wife, and that she had threatened
to leave him. Mrs. Miller was obliged
to work out most of the time, in orde1
to gain her livelihood.
