1t is safe to predict that women will
eventually take to wearing pajames
and do away with nightgowns alto
gether, for nothing more comfortable
can be imagined than these garments
that were at first supposed to be the
exclusive property of the masculine
gender.
One of the surprising things about
pajamas is that no matter how tall a
girl may be they make her look like
a little girl.
The feminine pajama trousers
while apparently cut exactly like a
mans, are really sloped in over the
hips in order to do away with any
unnecessary fulness.
The newest feature in pajamas is
presented in the trim trouser legs
which are sufficiently loose and Ions
to be comfortable, having at the ex
trene bottom a fold Of white fabric
rolled up IN very plquant mannish
fashion.
This clever idea does away with
the unfinished ext that is such az
unattractive featsTc, and the jaunty
little roll makes the feet seem all the
smaller New York Journal.

ELABORATE CoRsETs.

The newer corsets are of the thin
nest material, and for this there ere
several stuffs that feel like silk, wear
we'll and are really no heavier than
silk. They can be bought in the pale
tones, and for two or three dollars
one can. get as. good a corset as cost
three times as much a few years ago.
Those who fancy the handsomely
figured eorsets and cannot buy them
can initiate the French method, which
is embroidering them by hand.
A delightful little set. corset and
a corset cover, was embroidered in
pansies. The corset. cover was very
short bolero, little more than a pair

Artificial butter flies are sometimes
manufactured fer sale as rare speci-
mems to natural history museums and
private collectors. Their preparation
mainly consists in spreading with a
camePs-hair brush very thin gum or
paste over the wings Of ordinary but
terfies and then sprinkling over this
certain delicate metallic powders Of
various colors BY this deft manipu-
lation very common butterfly can be
transformed into one that Is extremely
rare. The fraud came to light through
an alleged specimen of a red admiral,
the butterfly so widely noted for its
brilliant red and white hues. Some
times the white specks turn blue, and
specimen in which this transforms
ton has taken place is regarded as a
great rarity. The dealer knew this.
and naturally his red admiral had many
blue specks. Unfortunately for him
the purchaser was suspicious, and by
the use Of magnifying glass and a
damp brush quickly discovered the
fraud.-Chicago News. ~

Merry Minneapolis Policeman Simply
Stands in the Way.
Big John Martin takes great pride in
the profession CT sparrow cop" He
is ever hot on the trail of yiolators
of park ordinances on Lake Harriet
boulevard.
He has long made a speciality Of
heading off fast anu reckless drivers
and bicycle scorchers. The police
court records show that John has ma
terially swelled the city's revenue for
fines because of what the offenders
term his "pernicious" activity in reg
ulating speed.
One of the best things John does is
to "block and tackle" the fast flying
''chuffers" who have gone to Harriet TO
get rid of their surplus energy.
Suppose an automobile is bowling
along at the rate of thirty-five or forty
miles an hour-a rate of speed of
which several Minneapolis racing
craft are easily capable. Does John
content himself with merely yelling
Hi therel" and brandishing his club
after the fashion. of his blue-coated
brethren of the city? Not he. He
makes them stop. To the uninitiated
1t would appear that the officer might
as well attempt to stop a locomotive as
powerful auto in action.
But this model patrolman accom-
plishes his work without pulling a gun
or resorting to any kind of violence.
The moment he sights bubble" COM
ing down the boulevard for all pos
sessed, though it be quarter Of a
mile away, John walks into the middle
of the roadway and waits develop
ments. When the machine gets near
endeavors to keep himself directly IN
its path. No matter how good is the
nerve of the chauffeur, none has yet
been encountered who failed to stop
before reaching the minion Of the law.
Sometimes the juggernaut has come to
an abrupt halt when close upon the
policeman, so close that his brass but
tons have been slightly Jared, but
there has been on furtner damage to
his anatomy.
t, 81 came awful near running over
you just for the fun Of it." was the
grim salutation of a chagrined chauf-
feur when overhauled in this unique
way the other day.
'Why didn't you do it?" asked John !;
that's what I'm asking you, why
didn't you do it,"
The automobile business is still
brisk with Martin, and he has yet to
report case of ruffled dignity on his
part. Minneapolis journal.

This is an age of disillusion. 1t is
not long since the British workman
was considered to be without his peer
throughout the world If he were a
navy, he could eat more beef, drink
more beer than anyone else on the
face of the earth; as a mechanic he
was the hardest working and the most
skilled: in agriculture he was unap-
preached. He could lay more bricks,
pillow a straighter furrow, win more
coal, carry heavier loads than could

Our grandmothers said that an hours

any person can test the truth of this
By INDUCING in en- hours sleep before

Choose any of the games in which
women are interested, and it would be
possible to detect deteriorating in
'huences in those who devote to them
a disportionate amount of enthusiasm
and energy. 1t is this all absorbing
tendency of modern games, far more
than the mere effect physically CT
morally of any one game, that is to be
deprecated. In athl. tics, as former
ly in book learning, women especially
require to aim at a sense of proper
ton, and that consciously before the
best results can be. obtained. Ath-
leticism among women is without
doubt a reaction from the ideals Of the

Imperfect Vision.

4 The handicap Of imperfect vision
naturally interferes with the progress
OF the child in his studies, says DR.
Grace Peckham Murray, in an article
In. the .Delineator on Backward chill
dren. A wen known oculist of New
York City states that defective vision
is very common cause Of apparent
mental dullness in young children. A
child's eyes should be examined when
he is old enough to attend school. in
order to be sue that he does rot sllf-
fer from lack sof good eyesight. One
writer has saidAthat lie 1aev an met
with a case of chronic bad spelling
that he did not also find some visual
defect. 1t must be remembered that
trouble from imperfect seeing comes
not only from seeing words and figures
wrongly but also from fatigue of the
brain caused by eye strain.

Not in Touch with heitfeld.

The popnlist committee as recognized
BY Chairman Andrews met at Boise this
week and the result is declared by the
following press dispatch:
The populist state committee adjourned
late this evening. 1t was in session most
of the day and discussed many questions
arising in connection with the split in
the party and the organization Of rival
committee under the leadership of the
element designated as the Heitfeld popu-
lists. The action of Chairman Andrews
in removing the committeeman from
Lincoln, Bear Lake, Canyon, Idaho and
Shoshone counties was approved and he
was given plenary power to ill vacancies
now existing or that may hereafter occur.
The most significant feature of the meet
ing was in connection with The calling OF
the state convention. The chairman was
instructed to call the convention at the
same time and place as the democratic
convention. This point is covered by the
following resolution: Resolved that the
chairman be authorized to call state
invention for nomination Of state officers
at thetsame time and place as the demo.
cratic state convention, unless hereafter
changed by the state committee
The question Of whether the peoples
party should support separate state
ticket at the coming election or form a
fusion with any other party, is referred
to the people for their action, and it is
recommended that the different delega-
tions to the state convention be instruct
ed by their respective county committees
upon the question.
The apportionment for the state con-
vention was fixed as follows:
Ada county s, Bannock 2, Bear Lake 2,
Bingham s, Blaine 10. Boise S, Canyon ?,
Cassia 2, Custer /, Elmore 2. Fremont S,
