Dear AUNT Madge:
haven't much to write that will help, but
am going TO ask If any of the sisters have
ever tried this way of serving Astrakan apples?
Pare and slice them very thin, and sprinkle
sugar over them an hour or SO before serving /,
eat them raw like peaches. They are delicious
for those who like them and some who do not
like them any other way will find them sppetiz.

had a visit from a little boy lately-one of
the kind hat Is an animated Interrogation point
and II occurred to me 10 write of ways to keep
little boys busy. I.had to invite another of the
same age (seven years., so that they could be
company for each other, and do you know they

something else. They picked up apples and
played" they were going to sell them, and they
played rake hay till they cleared up the barn
floor of all the scatterings, and when 1t was
dinner time they had picnic by simply taking
their food from the house oat under the trees,
and had delightful time.

Dear Aunt Mad9e:
Can you make use of the enclosed poem? I
ENJOY reading the letters in your column very
much, and find them very helpful.
Yes, your poems breathe spirit OF
faith and trust which make them COM
forting and uplifting to many who read
them. You have "consecrated' your
talent, and by that conservation you will
help others; and thus the Mutual Bene-

are in combinations OF lace, applique.
chiffon and very natural looking aow-
ers, which come in both silk and cotton
20 meet the demands OF every purse.
The shapes are a trihe larger than the
small turbans and look well without
wells.
The old style couture has at last
given way TO a new and more pleasing
arrangement OF the hair. The new
style Is a modification OF the parting
and bang. The front hair Is now
weaved loosely over n large iron and
cOmbed lightly to either side from the
center. The part Is but a mere sug-
gestion. A thin fluffy bang over the
forehead softens the outline OF the
face. With this new arrangement the
chignon is lowered considerably, even
approaching the nape OF the neck for
daytime wear but rising very high
for evening. With the high dressing
the back hair Is comhed up smoothly.
All the putting effect Is now considered
p8sse. The shell combs still rule and
are a great addition to this orderly
neaddress. and especially so with the
long. fat, single braid running length
wise from the crown Of the head TO the
nape of the neck. The chignon combs
FOR evening wear are very high and
narrow.
Chiffon capes and cloaks are quite
the features this season and show greee
popularity for use with cloth, silk and
velvet gowns as well as for evening
wear with the lighter materials. The
short capes Of chiffon are exceedingly
smart little nffairs, made with accordl-
on plaits or a dozen little ruflies. The
lining is OF silk or satin. the same color
as the chiffon. with an interlining OF
contrasting silk or quilted satin. 1t is
considered very dressy TO have these
chiffon wraps made OF exactly the
same color as the cloth gowns. Two or
three shades are also permissible.
Three-quarter length accordion plated
chiffon cloaks have several rows Of
shirrlng, giving the effect OF large
cords. These hold the plaits In posi-
tion and give the cloak better shape.

BOOM
or the Building Variety Strikes
Henryetta. /. T.

Henryetta, / T., Apr.i 12--Just now
the town Of Henrye.ta, this being the
name selected for the new town now
generally known as Henry 10 in the
throes Of building boom. Every
day many new faces ere seen op our
streets, most Of whom come to Invest.
while others come to enter into bust
ness or TO watch q good thing pushed
along When q man comes here and
does not seem particularly stuck on
the place we simply take him out and
show him The coal fields. That settles
the matter and he concludes there is
something in IL. and there is 70 other
argument needed 10 induce him TO be-
come one Of us. During the past week
the TT, Smith & Western people have
been ronning surveys through this
section with a view 60 building q road
from III. smith TO Oklahoma City.
Raidroad men and miners dub this
place the "Pittsburg of the south
west and they say this country is
full Of coal, iron, lead, nc and posi-
bly, copper, and when It is developed
no section of the country will equal It,
These things are stimulating and
building the town of Henryetta, and
upon these our hopes OF the future
are founded. While we have the min
ing interests, we also have magnifi-
cent farming country to assist in
building the great st city" in the
sor,Awest. Now we do not wish to
mislead any poor Aan. and will there
fore say that this country will never
be opened for homestead or pre-emp-
tiop, but will be the individual prop
erty of the indians. Each Indian
will be given title TO 200 sores; OF
this he can sell at what price he may
choose, all but forty acres, which he
must retain for a homestead. This
lARd will probably for from IS 10 sl5

The town of Henryetta is built ia a
beautiful little valley surrounded al
most entirely by mountains and is
very picturesque; back from I hills
lies the farming country. No one who

The spring opening at Miss Gillian s
millinery parlors occurs to-day, to-
morrow and Saturday. Miss GilIam's
stock this season is complete in every
respect, aud the display is certainly
beautiful and charming-mustb be seen
to be appreciated The latest novel
ties and all the dainty creations that
please and fascinate the fair sex are
there in profusion. Miss Gillian asks
her friends and the ladies generally to
give her call. She is confident she
can serve them most satisfactorily.
Seven amendments to the state con-
stltution are to be voted upon in No
vember. The first authorizes special
county levy of Is cents on the 800 for
bridge and road purposes. 1t is dis
cretionary with each county court.
The second provides for verdict by
three,fourths of the jury in civil cases
In courts of record; and in both civil
and criminal cases in courts not of
record. two-thirds may render a ver-
dict The third permits either indict-
ments or information in criminal pros
ecutions. The fourth makes lawful
JuFIeS OF less IMAM II men IN courts OF
record, and also provides that only a
judge authorized to try felony cases
may order d grand jury. The fifth
undertakes to divide the taxable valu
alton of incumbered real estate be-
tween the mortgage interest and the
property interest, with provision
whose purpose is to divide the burden
OF taxation equitably between the
givers and holders of mortgages. The
sixth and seventh pertain to the
Worlds fair. One of them authorizes
the issuance by St. Louis of So, 000, 900 |
4 per cent. bonds in aid of that enter |
prise, and the other permits the gen.
eral assembly to take $1.000.000 from |
the state sinking fund for use in max
ing a Missouri building at the fair.

So far as | have heard, there was
but little, if any, strife or conspiracy
in the school meetings out here Most
of the districts have tried to employ
experienced teachers, who are quail
fed intellectually and morally. This
is as it should be, or what did Emerson
mean when he told his daughter that
he cared more to know who her teach
ers were, than to learn what studies
she had chosen?
Cedar Grove will have a six months
term for the ensuing year, with j. G..
Hartman as teacher; Pepper Street, "
six months, with Phil. Hartman, as
teacher; district No. l. TIP. 35, r.
E, eight months, with Jno I. Patter-
son as teacher. Miss Sallie Hawkins
will teach six months term near
Sabula, and other teachers in the Val
ley have schools, which | am not able
to locate by name or number of district.
But we wish every teacher in Iron
county very successful term for the
ensuing year; for the teacher is an ex-
ponent to the intellectual and moral
status of this grand Republic.
