JEwELED BUTTONS IN USE.
Some No Larger Than Studs Found
in the Up-to-Date Trim
mings.

Gaudy is the one word which wilde
scribe adequately the buttons of the pres
ent season. They flash and CLEAN and
fiaunt myriad colors into the shoppers
eyes, and bewilder her even more than dc
the color combinations in millinery, says
the Washington Star.
Above all things the button of 1904-'0s
is ornaental rather than useful. 1t is
employed to give a finishing touch to al
outdoor garment, or to Salieve the sug-
gestion Of soberness in house gown, OF
to trim, like sequins or embroidery, the
girdles and stocks of the hour.
.Extravagances in the button line show
jeweled effects. Buttons composed en-
tirely Of rhinestones vary in diameter
from a quarter of an inch to an inch and
a half. The center is generally good
sized rhinestones, with slender spokes OF
small, fine rhinestones radiating from II
to an outer circle of small stones.
Again, the stones are set so close to-
gether that there is neither mounting
nor dress fabric to be seen between them
The rhinestones used for these solid
looking buttons are generally very fine
and cut with many faces, so that the but
ton sparkles, no matter how the light
strikes it. Colored jewels are combined
with rhinestones exactly as they are used
with diamonds in brooches.
A striking button or marquis lines
shows large jewel, either turquoise,
amythyst, emerald, garnet, sapphire
topaz or opal, overlaid with a fligree eff

marquis is in turn encircled by tiny rhine.
stones, and the button measures nearly
two inches in length. These jewels will
be matched with the color of the gown;
emerald on green dress, sapphire on
blue, topaz on brown, etc., and they will
be used in all colors on black velvet.
Sometimes the arrangements of the
Jewels is reversed. For instance, the CEN
ter will be large, many-faced rhine
stone, from which radiate slender rays
or spirals of jewels. These rays are built
Of wash gold, set with Jewels to match
the color of the gown, and topaz seems to
be enjoying a particular vogue in com.
bination with the new brown cloths.
Opal centers, with petal effects in rhine

- q ARA" said young Mrs. Saher to
y her old serving woman, as she
stepped into her spotless kitchen,
give this suit of clothes to the first
worthy-looking tramp who comes
along, as Mr.. Saher will not require
them any more"
Don't you think, num-" said the
cautious old servant, lit will be en-
couraging the likes of 'em, as worthy
men don't go about begging"
"Oh, Sara" said her young mis-
tress, many an honest man begs for
bread these hard times. Can't you tell
an honest man when you see one?
Better some one should have the
clothes than the moths eat them up"
well, seem as you are that
anxious, I'll do my best to pick out
worthy beggar, though l don't like
encouraging the likes" said Sara,
shaking her wise old head
Sara was the terror of all the trades
people. If one of them ventured into
her kitchen with dirty shoes she
promptly settled with him, and the Of
tense was not repeated. If the coal
man dropped his Goals or the ash man
his ashes, going to and fro, Sara made
them stop and clean their dirt up to
the accompaniment Of her shrillest
tones, and they we're careful not to
have it occur again; but hard as she
seemed, her heart was soft enough
where her young mistress was con-
cerned, though her master stood some
what in awe of her, and said he did
not dare venture into his own kitchen,
unless he had on velvet slippers.
A few evenings after the above
conversation Mr.. Saher was obliged to
make a business trip to Dublin.
Mrs. Saher was sitting dejectedly at
luncheon the third day after her hus-
bands departure, when her sister-in-
law, Mrs. Richard Saher, was an
nounced.
"Dick has booked some seats for the
theater for tomorrow night, Helen;
there is an American play on, and we
thought you would. like to see it."
"Oh, 1 should love to go. Alice;
how thoughtful of you and Dick"
The next afternoon found Mrs.
Saher toasting her feet before a huge
crate fire. 1t was raw, bleak day
in November. An east wind whistled
down the chimney, and deep, yellow
fog hung over the town, working itself
through the house; more gloomy day
could hardly be imagined. She seemed
restless and uneasy. She could not read,
nor could she settle down to her needle
work. She tried waltz on the piano.
but was not in the mood for playing.
what is the matter with me?" she ex-
claimed. Just then there came loud
double knock at the knocker, and Sara
entered with a telegram, which her
young mistress eagerly opened.
"Home for breakfast. Harold" she
read. Now, Sara, mind you, give us a
good breakfast"

Coal in Sweden.

Two or three years ago the Domin-

shipped cargo Of coal to Sweden to
be used as an experiment on govern

such big success that the company
now ships some $4,000 or 10000 tons

Sweden. This year the company is to
make further experiment in the for

Opinion of Jap Newspaper.

talking so much about the war and

rior education that has given the Jap

AN IMPORTANT MATTER.

they need not register this year IN

istered ln some former year ana have
voted I'm the past All the urgIngs
to comply with the low arc unheeded
by them because they fail TO listen
carefully feeling secure in the notion
that they are already duly registered.

that the laws Of Utah provide foI am
entirely new registration every 'our

Therefore. In order 10 vote Tor national,
state county or precinct officers this
year the voter must register this year
no matter when, where, or how often
he or she has registered before.
It liz good thing to have the regis
uation lists purged once In four years
that the names OF persons who have
died or removed out OF the state, or
become for any reason disqualified TO
vote may be eliminated so TINT the
lists may not be crowded with such

afforded. But whatever views may be
