The plan which is being followed by the
women of this association is feasible for
any locality. DR.. Lugger points out that
IN every country place around every
farmhouse where there are empty cans or
tubs, pals or barrels liable to fill up and
stand full of rainwater. the mosquitoes
breed by the millions, and if but a tea
spoonful of oil is poured on one of these
small breeding places, the results follow
as effectually as where a large stagnant
pond is treated. If the amount sug-

season it is only necessary to renew the

in very dry seasons. once in thirty days is
sufficient. Of course the laying of the

an impossibility-the preventive serves

FRILLS OF FASHION.

Variations in children's gowns bios"
they are very slight, and small girls
rival their mothers In their ambition
to keep up to date.
Soft wool materials make up very
prettily in this way. In figured French
flannel the collar may be made of the
same and trimmed with rows OF narrow
braid or velvet ribbon. Skirts of the
small gowns are usually plain, but the
older girls have some sort of trimming,
either tucks. stitched bands, ruff1es or
velvet folds, stitched on.
The long-waisted mode, in which the
waist line rounds down low in front,
Is conspicuously evident among the
gowns for girls over 10 years of age,
and the small gowns for dainty little
girls Of initiate this fashion as much
rs possible by having the long waist
Ill around. Guimpe dresses, which
never seem to go out Of style, are suit
able for all ages. from 6 to the more
mature years of middle age.
Bolero jackets are very popular in
the kingdom of small costumes, and the
attempt to produce the effect Of stols
ends is seen in one little gown. where
narrow lace revers are carried down the
entire length of the front, as shown In
the illustration. Another pretty effect
is made by two box piaits in front, one
at either side from the yoke to the
hem, and two in the back, giving a
long effect to the waist, which is de-
fined with a narrow velvet belt ending
in small velvet rosettes at either side
Of the front on the plaits. The skirt
gathers on to the waist between the
plaits, which apparently are contin-
uation of those in the waist. A sailor
collar of lace covers the shoulders in
the back and opens in front over =
yoke of tucked white silk or batiste.
Thin gowns Of point d'esprit for party
wear are variously trimmed with
ruches, ruffles, lace insertion and rows
of colored satin ribbon. A pretty feat
