a white material imported from Russia.
"Wool crash" 1t is called, for the loose
coarse weave initiates the heavy lines OF
this name.
Both gowns show the front band trimming
already described, that of the first gown De-
ing made of Russian embroiueries IN ortno-
dox stitch. At each side of this very orna-
mental trimming, In whose rich coiorings
a superb blue predominates, is border OF
uneven velvet bars in the same tint.
yoke Of white Russian lace, outlined with
three rows of the velvet, shows IN the
bodice, whose large puffed sleeves are
capped with fringes in the embroidery tints.
The sleeves are finished with lace cuffs, a
row of ;neertion showing in the puffs
dropping above.
Another stained-glass scheme is seen in
the second gown. for certainly one can call
these rich bold colorings nothing else. The
embroidered band of this, running
down the. front of the gown like the other,
displays only deep violets The large bios
SONS in which the needlework is done
vaguely outline the passion flower. The
cut-out neck of the little bodice is bordered
with slashed collar with deep violet vel
vet bordering the tucked pieces. The bias
belt is made of the same material. and the
neck is filed in with white null guirnpe
drawn simply around the throat with vel"
vet draw string.
And now another rift, for looking upon
the sleeves Of this gown one recalls the con-
fession of the morning prayer, I'VE have
done those things We ought not to do.

and the result Is the wrong combination

crash and turning back with velvet-trimmed
cuffs-all right SO farther misguided
creator has placed pulled ones Of violet and
white plaid silk. Remove these and insert
similar undersleeves of plain white null,
and the gown will be exquisitely perfect.
Spring Hats Are Due.
In the matter of millinery our Lenten
headgear need not necessarily conform to
the still wintry season. From the middle
of February New York women begin to
wear the airier top pieces of spring, even
though they are not supposed to appear be-
fore Easter. So shapes Of straw satin and
velvet braids combined are already seen.
some still showing the wide plumes and
laces of winter and others boldly sporting
the blossoms of wood and garden.
Yellow seems to be a favorite shade for
these delicate flowers, among which appear
the crocus, the jonquil and the tulip. The
smaller blossoms. in the choicest instances,
are compactly massed and put on In large
rosette-like clumps.
One bewitching hat, decked with yellow
crocuses. was of black and dark blue satin
braid. The scooping shape, which was only
moderately big, took an upward curve at
the sides. Filling these in underneath were
the flower rosettes bit of lace in the same
dense yellow mingling with other short ends
at the back. A shaped Chantilly scarf in
black supplied these, the wide middle drap-
ing the front brim, with veil look.

passionate housewives to send forth lunches
to the knights of the dusty road without
taxing the poor sufferers for tithes of work
To point a stern finger in the direction of
the woodpile when weary traveller asks
for food will now be considered an act Of
cruelty, and the scorn that has heretofore
attended the constitutionaily tired husband
and father, who has remained at home
when his family hustled to support him,
wiz be changed to understanding sympathy
Many of the cruelties practiced in the last
fifty years. before the laziness microbe was
traced to his lair will be recalled with hor-
ror. There is some reprodch connected with
our hasty ancestors who burned witches
at Salem, Mass. but what will be said in
the future of those who have compelled
reluctant boys TO pillow and unwilling girls
to wash dishes? The blame WILL be almost
more than one may bear.
Inability to work. or to do anything. even
to think, is sure sign that the uncinaria

promptly, there will be return of ambition
that will astonish the family and likely re-
pair its fortunes.

If the patient is young and has done little

But 1t seldom strays over into the To-
calities where it might be of most use. For
instance. who has ever seen an evidence of
1t anywhere on the farm-eXcept in the
hired man? The woman who rises al dawn
and milks the cows and strains and sets
away the milk and then cooks breakfast
for the family and does a washing which
covers the wild sward of the front yard, and
then gets dinner for dozen, by means Of
a rest. and finds that she finishes washing
the dishes for the midday meal Just in

Very truly yours, c. c. O'Neal & Co. Undertaken Butt has recently con- verted one side of his store room into a cabinet in which he has installed one of each of the fine caskets and cofins he keeps in stock, thus enabling him to place them on display Tn minute. We doubt if there is better equipped undertaking establishment in North Arkansas than the one kept by MT. Butt.
 The revival mee ting at the Methodist church is still in progress, services being announced over Sunday. Thus far there have been reported more thaa twenty conversions and splendid in- terest is still manifested. This revival has given Green Forest such religious shaking up as the town has seldom be- fore enjoyed, and it is to be hoped that Rev. McCracken will continue his labors among us as long as he possibly can. His faithful services should be liberally rewarded by our people.
 THE TRIBUNE is much pleased with what has been done in sidewalk build ing to the depot, but it lacks much of being what it should be. The work done at the expense of the town will pass quite satisfactorily but most of that done by the owners of property lacks some of being worthy of being called walk at all. This matter should be rem. edied at once. If the walks built by property owners are not put up to the standard the council should take the same course it has with the property of non residents.

 A dispatch from Eureka Springs pub- lished in the Leader Democrat of Springfield Tuesday says that Tom Flannery shot and seriously wounded Claud Haggard, at dance on White river.

 Miss Alice Smith of Livingston, Mont, arrived Wednesday and is now a guest at the home of her brother Lee Smith. Miss Smith formerly resided in this community and has hosts of friends who are delighted to see her. It has been thoughtfully suggested that the lodge and society element of Green Forest might do well to petition the legislature at it's present session, praying that honorable body to add three or four more nights to the week, so that the various meetings can be held without seriously interfering with each other. This is especially necessary since several have membership in many of the various organizations, and are compelled to forego the pleasure of at tending some meetings because of con- flicting dates.

Canning Factory Once More.

In order to put the question of can- ming factory in business way to the men who weild the destiny of Green Forest, TIE TRIBUNE made canvass Wednesday of such of the business men as we thought would be willing to take stock. On the basis of capital stock of $b0O0 divided into 400 shares of S25 each we found takers for thirty shares as follows: w. R. Sneed, 10 shares; Coxsey Bros., 10 shares; c. c. O'Neal & Co.,, ? shares; c. B. Grim, 2 shares; J. H. Ramsey, ? shares; J. c. Harbert, 2 shares; Dr. Poynor, 3 shares.
 While there are some who are inter- ested in such an enterprise whom we did not see, we are sure that from the number who declined and the size of the sums subscribed by most of those who did take hold of it, that it is im- possible to make the enterprise go at the present time.
 Mir. Sneed would take more stock as probably would Coxsey Bros., but MI. Sneed said that while he considered it a good investment, that it would be an enterprise of special value to the busi- ness men who would not only realize on the profits of the factory but would be benefited much more on account of the money it would put in circulation and he thinks all should take reasonable proportion of the stock. What he pro- posed was mainly for the benefit of the town.
 THE TRIBUNE not feeling able to take up the balance of the stock, we will have to pass the subject of canning factory for the present.

We wish Dr. Butt unbounded success in his chosen profession.
 Again Green Forest is furnishing a good share of the capital for the estab- lishment of a new bank. Jasper is the location and w. R. Sneed and Coxsey Bros. are the heaviest stockholders, the capital being $10,0OO, fully paid up. John Hurd will be the cashier. It is expected that the new institution will be opened for business April fst. M. s. Coxsey left for St. Louis Wednesday morning to purchase safe and other necessary supplies.

SAILING ON FRIDAY. -


Among the ancient superstitions
Of Jack, the sailor man, there is one
that sticks like the odor Of pitch to
. spliced hawser. Those who 60
down to the sea in ships are still
reluctant to 60 down on Friday.
Many superstitions have been at
tributed to sailors. Some Of them
are myths, but this one about sail
ing on Friday is reality, as the
captains Of all seagoing vessels en-
tering New York hsrbor know.
Why they consider it i'll luck TO
sail on Friday the men before the
mast cannot explain, but they have
stored in their forecsstle tales many
lurid narratives Of the experiences
of the ships that started on voy-
age on Friday. If it is around the
Horn severest gales are sure to be
met with, and it IL two to one that
the rocks of Magellan will send hel
to the bottom. If it is to Liverpool
or Lisbon the trades are sure tc
fall or there will be q man over
board before the Bahamas liz
astern.
The Latin seamen are peularly
susceptible to this superstition
Spanish and Portuguese sailors e.
pecially. Their fears are shared b,
the French and Italians. Germans
English and Norwegians are in
clined that way a little, but Uncl'
Sans jolly tars are devoid OF fear
That is why they are the best sail
ors and fighting men in the world.
"Give us a blow" said an Amer
lean shellback in South street, "an'
We don't give q continental whethe
it is Friday or Monday"
When the Latins discover thei
captain preparing to weigh sncho
in the stream on Friday they la
back in their work in the riggin
or in getting provisions on boar
and usually manage to delay sailin
until the last day Of the week.
The large ocean steamship CON
! panies make no distinction on a
count of Friday, and the crews
. the transatlantic liners take itt
! interest in it.-New York Comme
cial.
