Pretty Petticoats

Petticoats continue to be fascinating
garments made Of soft fluffy textiles,
with any amount Of exquisite work
nanshib lavished upon them. They
continue for the most part fiat at the
top. To preserve the svelte lines Of the
figure it is necessary that the skirt
should hang softly and in straight lines
from the hips. Gathers wrongly placed,
a pleat misapplied, the wrong position
of a cord, a band or a button may de-
stroy the harmony Of the whole.
The new skirts are completely finish
ed at the front and over the hips.
Bands are absolutely banished. skirts
of wash materials. have buttonholes and
buttons, arranged in as fiat a manner
as possible. Non-washable petticoats
fasten with a clasp or hook. The fash
ion of fastening the skirt in front or al
the left side has been abandoned for
the more natural fastening in the back

Now for More Rumes

t, Let the heart Of the woman who loves
runies rejoice within her. For theirs
Is a popularity that is perennial, and
late summer and early autumn models
show them in a variety Of kind and
shape that is bewildering. On waists,
sleeves and skirts they appear; some
times so deep as to be capes, again so
narrow that they stick out like broad
quillings. 1t is a perfectly safe state
ment that no matter what the kind it
cannot go wrong, for no two designers
make the same, and each is equally de-
sirable. Some are straight across the
bottom and very full; others are circu-
lar and fiat.

Double Chiffon

That charming new fabric, double
chiffon, is growing in popularity, and
seems 10 I'LL a long felt want. 1t is a
compromise between the too transpar-
ent and the too Opaque, and something
which is at once perfect for day and
evening wear. Asait does not require
to be used so plentifully as single chif-
fon, II does not in the end come out as
an expensive fabric. 1t combines ad-
mirably with laces, and it is known to
the thrifty that, like single chiffon, 1t
washes perfectly.

Tattine the Thing

Happy Is the woman who has some bits
OF that old-fashioned lace known as tat
ting. Happier stln is she who can WELD
the letting shuttle and make as much
Of this lace as she likes or has time for.
For nothing is more fashionable at the
present time than tatting, and at its best
few things are more beautiful or desir-
able. This form Of handiwork dates back
to the sixteenth century, and has enjoyed
many periods Of great popularity

Teaching Baby to Walk

In cold weather baby should never be
allowed to play on the floor. but, having
removed the bed clothes, II can then be

A baby should never be forced to walk.

Farewell Surprises.

One of the most pleasant parties
that has been held in this city for a
long time was the one which took
place last evening at the home of Mr..
and Mrs. j. E. Mason, among the
pines in West Prescott. About thirty
of the friends of this couple gathered
there in the evening, coming in on
them without a moments warming,
and they did not come empty handed
for they brought a number of nice lit
tie presents as remembrances of the
years that have been spent together
in this city. The party was made up
principally of the members of the
Baptist church, of which organization
Mr.. and Mrs. Mason have been mem
bers for many years.
They have been residents of Pres
colt for six or seven years. having
come here from st. Paul, Mimi, for
the benefit of Mr.. Mason's health, but
intend to return to their old home
next Wednesday, and it was on this
account that their friends met to bid
them good bye. The evening was
spent in talking over the days gone
by and was greatly enjoyed by all for
there were many pleasant things that
had TRANSFERRED during that time Be
fore leaving Rev. Taft presented he
gifts in happy little speech, and on
behalf of the church and their friends
wished them much Joy.

are being obtained. G. W. Murray,
who lives about nine miles from Pres
colt, combines ranching and fruit
raising and little stock raising with
mining. A few years ago he located
on little ranch at the place desig-
mated and planted out small orchard
of about 700 trees which is now bear
ing In spite of the dry weather last
year he had some of the choicest fruit
raised in this section. There was no
large amount of il as the bloom was
nipped by late frosts, but in quality
it would be hard to beat any place.
Ii was raised, too, without any irri-
cation whatever. Last September he
sowed quite large patch of rye, de-
pending entirely upon nature to pro-
vide moisture for its growth, and
now he has as fine piece of pasture
for his cattle from this as one could
wish, while one small field of it is
being saved for hay. The rye, on
which the stock has not been pastur-
ed, is now over foot high. and is
growing finely. Mr.. Murray is quite
an enthusiast, in regard to what can
be done on a small scale along these
lines.
