WASHING A FINE ART.

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
Aspasia to the rich dresses of Elizabeth,
and thence to the wedding gown of Pur-
itan Priscilla we see the attractiveness of
dress" But at this time only has it be-
come possible for all women to be becom
ingly attired at a 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 a mistaken
idea, as washing pretty belongings is fine
art, which is very easy to learn. Any girl
no matter how delicately reared can wash
her own summer gowns. A bright day,
plenty of water, and a little pure soap are
the necessary aids in the work. To do it,
fill a tub two-thirds full of warm water,
dissolve fourth of a 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, hang on the line in the
shade When dry, sprinkle, and iron on
the wrong side. Eliza R. Parker.

a ModoI RAILROAD RuiIninr.

Ohe OF the constant attractions to
Jubilee visitors at Salt Lake Citv was
the handsome new building on West
temple street now being erected bv
the Oregon Short Line Railroad as a
home for their general Offices. The
structure is conceded by all TO be the
model railroad building Of the West.
10 conduct the business of a great
road like the Oregon Short Line with
It's 1900 miles of tracks requires a host
OF departments each with its chief. his
assistants and scores of clerks and ac-
countants. None of these have been
overlooked in this model building.
The structure was erected from plans
drawn by the engineering department
OF the road, and each clerk was counted
and place made for him in the prop
er place, that he might perform his
duties with the least amount of neces-
sary labor and surrounded by conven-
fences that would conduce to his great
est comfort. Forty large and airy of
fee rooms are required to house all
these employees.
The busiest and most visited of these
departments is that of passenger traf-
fic presided over by General Passenger
Agent Burley, who in the four months
since the segregation of the road from
the Union Pacific has made for him
self reputation that stamps him as
one of the best passenger men in the
country.
The passenger department is making
an enviable record as being unsurpass-
ed by any western road in point of
comfort and quick time. With its
connections the Short Line has recent
ly reduced the time between Denver
and Portland and the Sound about
twelve hours. In view of the heavy ira
vel toward the Klondyke gold fields of
Alaska. reached only from this section
by the Short Line, this improvement
has been doubly appreciated.
The system is to be extended by a
line to the rich Deep Creek country in
Nevada, which will eventually reach
the coast at Los Angeles. Plans have
already been prepared and are now be-
ing reviewed by the eastern officers
and directors of the company, and work
will commence very soon.

the northern heavens with great speed.
Just what the velocity is, however,
cannot yet be told with certainty. Prof.
SIMON Newcomb, in a recent lecture.
said that it was probably between five
miles and nine miles per second. The
bright star Alpha Lyrae lies not far
from the point toward which the sun
is moving. Every moment we are get

star now is. when shall we get there?
Probably in less than a million years;
