Happy. lucky. much to be envied little
June bride:
OF course, every other June bride in the
past has felt herself to be the happiest
girl in the whole wide world on her we'd
ding day. But you have a right TO feel
that you are happier than all other brides.
That Is. you ought to be. for in addition to
belonging to the man of your heart, you
may nave the consciousness this year of
being a most bewitchinE bride.
Not in years has there been such a va
riety to choose from in selecting ones
wedding gown.
In fact, there are NJ longer hard and
fast rules TO be oilowed in choosing his
all-important gown.
The June bride may study her individual
preferences.
No longer need she be arrayed in a plain,
stately gown of heavy satin, II she hap
pens to be q young person. who must wear
friIly. soft frocks TO look her prettiest.
She can dress as she pleascs on her we'd
dIng dap. and drapa her veil 70 suit her
couture and her own sweet self. Now,
isn't that one good reason for being es-
pecially happy
There is no denying the fact that clothes
do count immensely.

can put her in had humor. to say moth
ing Of the joyful mood that n becoming

Clothes do affect the mood Of even the

will rot buy everything she thinks she
must have for her rousseau. for Dame
Fashion. you know, is growing moro and
more whimsical. and fashions have a way
Of changing Just when you don't expec;
them to.
So, In selecting her trousseau Il Is wiser
not to look too far ahead in considering
the usefulness of her gowns.
And this applies quite as much 10 her
bridal gowns as to her other frocks.
The up-to-date girl of to-day. when she
Is about to be married. selects her wed
ding gown with the idea OF wearing 1t
after the evsntful day.
She doesn't put II away In = big box

serving IL for "reminiscences in the future;
instead. she buys with the sole idea OF

SOFT MATERIAL PREFERRED.
The june bride will choose some flmy,
soft material this year for her wedding
gown. in preference 10 heavy satin or
silk.
White chiffon cloth is much the fash
lon. while organdie with a chiffon finish,

Question Sprung in Dietrich Trial.

Omaha. Neb.. Jan. THE trial of
United states Senator Dietrich in the
Federal Circuit court on an Indictment
alleging bribery in connection with the
appointment of a postmaster at Hastings,
Neb.. progressed rapidly today until a
point was reached where the first witness
for the government was placed on the
stand. when General Irwin. chief counsel
for Senator Dietrich, interposed a demur-
rer, on the ground that Mr.. Dietrich had
not taken the oath and was not therefore,
a United States Senator when the alleged
bribery occurred.
This question was acknowledged by
for both sides to be new one,
ana each had prepared argument on the
subject. The court will hand down an
opinion tomorrow morning.
The point is a significant one, and raises
the question Of whether a member of
Congress is amenable to the United States
government as a member of Congress
between the time of his election and the
date of his qualification as a member of
the House to which he is elected.

COTTON STEAD|ES
The Fluctuations De-
crease In Extent
The Outlook Appears to be For a
Gradual Advance in the Market
With SmaiI Backsets Oc-
casionaIIy.

Cotton was not in a fluctuating mood
yesterday and the market was steady.
That is, ii was steady in comparison
with the wild up and down dashes which
have characterized its performance since
the holidays. There was a range of about
twenty points in the fluctuations yes
terday.
On the local spot market there was sold
sixteen bales at prices from 13 to Is IA
cents pound, as against fourteen bales
day ago yesterday at prices OF from
s 3-S to s 5S cents a pound. The sales
here this season have reached $4,000 bales
as against 1924 last season..
The decrease in war talk is one cause
of the steady market, the effect of this
wearing off. The strongest sustaining
point has been, however the fact that
continental splnners are coming in good
and heavy on purchases of cotton at the
present prices.
With a lack of cotton in the world and
the bulk of the crop already marketed
normal conditions would mean a sharp
advance. The settlement of the eastern
question by peace will bring this about
Here is a view OF a gentleman given out
yesterday. 1t is that if war does come be-
tween Russia and Japan that shortly af-
ter it begins cotton cloth will be needed
badly in the east and that the price of
cotton Will then advance. 1t is an idea
worth thinking about
