skirts of diaphanous materials over the
hips will ever be popular for the SIM

with furore. Worn by a tall, slender
woman nothing could be more pleasing
or effective. The sheer, pure white

green, or probably a dash of pink or
blue, are inexpensive, and in many
cases are made up without any lin

the exchange catalogue and directory
was now in the printers hands and
would soon be issued. This book will
be of great value to all patrons of the
exchange as well as to strangers in the
city, containing as 1t does all the rep
resentative firms, besides other matter
of general interest. 1t will be distri-
buted free of cost. Mrs. Henry Nc
Alpin, chairman of the committee hav-
ing in charge the recent garden party
at Mrs. George ]. Mills, reported a con-
siderable amount realized for consig-
nors, besides a small net profit for the
general fund of the exchange. Mrs. C.
$. Abrahams of the committee appoint
ed to arrange for next seasons quar-
tefS, spoke OF the negotiations that are
still on progress, which would doubt
less result in the exchanges continuing
in its present quarters. 1t was decided
to keep the exchange open until at
least June Is. This will necessitate an
other board meeting, which will be held
on the second Tuesday in June, at $50
a. m. After adjournment the whole
board received a personal invitation
from Mr.. Joseph NJ. Solomon to stop
downstairs for a refreshing drink of
soda, most acceptable treat, and one
that was thoroughly enjoyed and ap-
preciated.

Texas, while seeding continues in the
northern districts.
Very encouraging reports respecting
