er than many of the streams upon which money from the federal treas ury is lavished by each congress. But, of course, an appropriation for the con struction of levees at Yuma would be more on all-fours with the appropri2- tions for the control Of floods Tn the Mississippi than with the projects for dredging and pulling snags from riv- CTS. In any event. there is abundant precedent for national expenditure of the character required on the Colorado, and the matter should be pressed by Delegate Wilson with all the energy that is in him.

Levees Needed on the Colorado.

While the damage wrought in the neighborhood oi Yuma by the recent flood in the Colorado river was not ex- cessive, it emphasized the need of levees to protect valuable property from the flood which annually occurs in the river. The agricultural develop ment of the Yuma district has just be- gun, and that country is destined to become one of the great farming re- gions of Arizona. But to achieve the full measure of its possibilities the country must be protected from the an- gry Colorado. The question has been agitated to some extent, but next win ter, when congress meets, there should be Q determined effort to have an ap- propriation for Yuma included in the rivers and harbors appropriation bill.
 If Arizona was a state there would be no difficulty whatever about getting the necessary appropriation. The scores of millions of pork" in the bill are divided after the consummation of a trade in which the senators and rep resentatives from each state have re- ceived due recognition" As every body knows, each rivers and harbors bill carries millions of dollars for the improvement" of puny creeks called rivers by courtesy, the value of which for navigation will never be known to commerce. The Colorado has infinitely more right to be called navigable riv- 'f. t@

wide-open portals, seemed to give happy
augury for the future.
Another wedding went a step farther In
the desire to seek the beauty of nature as
a setting. The ceremony was performed
at sunset under great elm tree on the
lawn.
1t was daisy wedding. Ropes of daisies
marked the path through which the bridal
party passed. and the flower girls strewed
daisies. The green of the turf made a de-
lightful contrast with the white dresses oil
the bride and her attendants. and the gold
en- sunset cast an aureole over all. AS the
twilight fell myriad lanterns began to twin
kle through the trees under which the
wedding supper was served.
The summer wedding feast. whether the
hour names it breakfast or supper, is sell
dom served in the close, hot confines of the
house. If it is a breakfast, the porch may
be utilized, or a large tent or pavilion may
screen the tables from the glare of the sun.
The tables in the pavilion are usually long
and narrow and the guests are served buf-
fet fashion. Great bowls of red, pink and
white peonies make striking table decora-
ton.
At violet wedding narrow strip
of moss and growing violets ran down the
center of the table for it's entire length.
On either side many violet chains encircled
the white damask in graceful patterns
If the porch is the scene of the breakfast
the guests may be served at small tables
to decorate each table in a different color
and with different variety of flower, or a
different shade of the same flower AT
one rose wedding one table rejoiced in a
vase or regal jacqueminots, another was
strewn with dainty blush roses, and on a
third a bowl of waxen tea roses mingled
their fragrance with the honeysuckle way
ing on the trellis close by.
Sweet peas make a pleasing decoration
for the small table. Another pretty plan
is to have in the center of each table a
small fern dish filled with growing wild
flowers. the more woodsy the better.
If a wedding supper is served the porch
should be decorated with lanterns, but it is
far more harmonious with the hour to have
the supper out under the Authenticated
trees. The half-light adds touch of the
romantic and the evening air brings out all
the sweetness of the flowers.
Or a temporary arbor may be erected.
From it's roof of interlacing wires loosely
covered with vines and branches many Ian
terms are hung. The unsightly side yard of
a city house thus be transformed into
a fairy bower and the guests escape from

1t must be admitted that the general
trend of fashion Is toward lavish display.
Never were so many precious laces worn
more profusely; never were chiffons and
grenadines such works of art as they
are now with their painted and embroid-
cred figures; and never were hats bigger or
more burdened with brilliant flowers.
With 1t all there are enough modest
and sensible designs in the field to satisfy
the less florid In taste, and some of these,
in their perfect finish and exquisite cor
rectness of detail. strike an even more
elegant note than do the extravagant mod
els. Some excellent hints are also given
for the economical employment of short
lengths of stuff. for one frock may show

the season are those made of mottled

MILADY'S 'KERCHIEFS
BIZARRE SHAPES AND FINE LACE
TRIMMINGS.
Written for The Evening Star.

written Tor Inc Evening Star.
Even milady's handkerchief, which, by
the way, she now calls her mouchoir, has
fallen a victim to the wiles of Madame
Mode. 1t is no longer merely a bit Of fine,
white linen, edged occasionally with a mar
row trimming. 1t is a distinctly fashion
able. If frivolous. bit of finery, and will go
far toward making the summer girl joy
forever. If ever there was revelation In
things feminine, there is, this year, in this
heretofore insignificant trif1e.
These conceits appear in pinks, blues,
lavenders, yellow and grays. And they are
round, square and Zigzag in shape the lat
ter variety edged very fluffily in lace, like
the uneven fiounce of a petticoat. White,
edged in colors or in black, will still be in
good taste. but is not so new as the more
intricate designs.
The well-dressed girl will have several
handkerchiefs to match each of her gowns.
Either hemstitched square of the goods
trimmed in lace, or round bit. also edged
In lace, Will answer the purpose. If she
wears pongee gown, she must have
mouchoir of the same fabric and. If the
gown is trimmed or embroidered, it Is
proper to adorn the tiny square with the
same trimming
Fine white Irish linen narrowly hemmed
and embroidered In daisies in their natural
colors, is one Of the prettiest styles in sum-
mer handkerchiefs. Flowers seem to have
captured the feminine fancy this season;
they have found their way into everything
in the summer girls wardrobe.
Pink, blue or lavender linen, embroidered
in white, makes pretty effect, which will
be largely adopted. This combination is
worn with the popular wash gowns of
linen or canvas The white embroidery on
the handkerchief matches that on the
gown.
The little white silk handkerchiefs. so
much in vogue several years ago, have re-
turned but they are far more pretentious.
Fleur de lis, either in white or colors, fine
insertions, pale pink rosebuds, or tiny blue
forget-me-not add much to them. 1t is
even suggested that fine edging of velvet
will finish this sort of handkerchief, but, so
far, nothing so perishable and unpracticable
has made its appearance In the shops
An odd and not altogether pleasing de-
sign is found in brown and white striped
goods. 1t is made of nine tiny squares
Joined together with a fine fagoting into one
larger square. 1t may be fashionable but
it is neither durable nor attractive.
The finest laces are employed in the fash
Joining of the new handkerchief, and this
fact may tend to make the summer girl
more careful of them. The loss of a hand
kerchief here or there, has never made
much of an impression on her, but now that
this little accessory has risen to the dig
nifty of real lace, colors and all sorts of
costly trimmings, she may be more chary
of it. Perhaps, also. the young man who
comes home from the summer resorts will
bring with him smaller collection of girls
handkerchiefs than formerly.
