it was cut BY the government
townsite surveyors, at $l65.
Az block !, adjoining, condi-
tons the same, was started by
sir. Chandler at 800 and went
to Mr.. Phillips at si95. Aside

Fads of fashion.

Sleeves made in handkerchief points
will remain in fashion for a long
time. They will be carried out in heavy
materials, though far more suitable to
light ones.
Belts OF black satin ribbon alternat-
ing with rows of narrow black lace,
with tab fronts and pendent purse Of
the same material, are among the
recent novelties.
Three diamond birds decorate the
outside of a large gold locket for q
chain pendant. 1t is round and is of
the remarkably thin design which is
now so greatly favored.
Decorated boxes for bonbons show
the appropriate design of an Easter
lily or the more sentimental pansy.
They are tied with dainty purple and
white satin lavender ribbons.
An ecru crepe de chine waist is a
soft and dainty thing for summer. One
which was recently seen in the store
case was made with tucks running
horizontally about the bodice to give
body and fulness and the sleeves had
similar tucking about the upper part.
A lace yoke pointed in front and lace
on the sleeves completed the trimming.
Cream white lace ties in one piece
have centres with small dotted pat
terms and an effective border, which
increases considerably as it approaches
the ends. These ends are several
inches deep and have various kinds
of dainty designs finishing them. For
a scarf of this variety about eight
inches wide and nearly two yards long
the price would be from $1.75 to $3.50.
Green silk petticoats are all the rage,
and there is a watermelon pink that
captivates the fancy of tho woman
who likes gay colors. OF course moth
ing is so quiet as black and white or
so loud either, for that matter, and a
perfectly stunning petticoat comes in
a black and white stripe silk, the black
being a heavy gro-grain. 1t is made
with a deep iounce edged with black
silk ruching.
A white crepe de chine coat is lined
with white surah and is modelled
after the loose sack shape. A deep
collar falls over the shoulders, which
is entirely made of heavy-looking white
silk cord, fashioned into graduated
round points. More of these cords
are draped in military fashion across
the front and ends below the coat.
The upper parts of the sleeves are
shirred into several thick cordings,
and where they enlarge below the ell
bows have an elaborate drapery OF
white silk cords and dangling fringed
silk cord ornaments.
Pale blue taffeta and the lightest
shade of tan silk are combined in a
pretty coat suitable for a girl of four
or fite years old. 1t has rounded
stitched capes, two of tan alternating
with two of blue taffeta. The main
portion of the full length coat is OF
tan silk, but it is striped with bands
of stitched blue taffeta, which are
broken at intervals and arranged in
sharp-pointed ends. Three pearl but
IONS are on each of these points, and
from the small blue cuffs other pointed
pieces ornamented with pearl button.
