WORTHY OF NOTICE

s
In conversation with DR.. G Q.
Ray, this morning we learned that
he had been in chickasha just one
year this month. During this
time he has nearly run the cata-
logue in treating chronic cases.
Many of them have been Of the
most stubborn type having taken
nearly all other forms Of treatment
before resorting to Osteopathy.
DR.. Rays success in healing dis
eases without drugs, has proven to
Chickasha that Osteopathy is all
that is claimed for it. Cons 4ering
the fact that a large ihaiiy Of
the cases that come under this form
OF treatment are chronic and Of long
standing, and that above eighty
per cent of them are cured, this
alone is sufficient to recommend
Osteopathy as a safe method IN
acute cases such as fevers etc.
Over ninety per cent. Of DR.. Ray IS
patients during the past year have
been greatly benefited; eighty per
cent. cured while only a few have
failed to be relieved 70 any extent.
This is certainly a good record for
chronic cases. So marked has beeA

hard cases, we are authorized 10

may stop and it will not cost you
one cent. This, we think, fair
proposition, and only shows that
the doctor has the utmost confidence
in lis ability to handle diseases
without drugs 1t IS cehainly
well worthy a trial II will give
skeptics an opportunity to test the
virtues Of Osteopathy FREE if not
beneficial. Female diseases Of all
kinds are typical ostcopathic cases.
Fevers, summer complaints, diar-
rhoca, etc, etc, yield very readily
to Osteopathy, sometimes one
treatment being sufficient for a sin
gle case.

Old GsTOnInO
Among the Veterans of the Blue
and ihe Gray on Memorial
Day.


Old Geronimo occupied a seat on
the platform with the old soldiers
Of the Union and the Confederacy
at the Memorial Day exercises at
Lawion- The ineident caused
some adverse criticism in the lrress
Of that city. Il was suggested that
he had no place in the gathering
The point may have some merit.
But there are other sides 70 the
question. To be sure Geronimo is
a savage. He scalped his victims
killed in ambush He never car
ried on civilized warfare. He was
an outlaw from the time his first
atrocity was established until he
was taken and made a prisoner Of
war. He is still a prisoner Of war
and will be until he dies.
But he is a peaccable, harmless
old savage now. lie is seiiile and
has no merit and is not d feature Of
interest save that he retains some
Of his native craft. And for these
reasons there was noharm in allow
ing the old savage TO sit with the
old veterans.
The Geronimo band Of Apaches
numbered at one time about 5000
warriors. They fought the hardest
fight that Crook and Miles had III
the.Arizona campaigns. Their part
Of the wars was the part Of an i'm
placable crafty enemy. The veter-
ans who were with Crook and
Miller in the Arizona campaigns
against Geronimo will not forget
the 6erceness Of the Indias there.
And their war too, is over.
The Indian Of the United States
is becoming civilized. 1t is the
desire Of the government that he
become citizen and help make his
destiny what it iscapable Of being
The Indians are cooperating with
the government in the evolution.
The presence Of the most hated
Indians warrior Of later Indian
campaigns at the Memorial Day
observance was an earnest Of the
good will Of the government as
represented by sovereign citizens.
1t was a sort Of burial of the hat
chct not at all out Of the keeping
with the spirit Of the occasion.

ashamed to talk about them. They

ADMINISTRATION and
Sashes.

Written for The Evening Star by Harriet Hawley.
This is great spring for the slim little
maid, for the 1880 effects, notably the long
shouldered, dropping collar and the shirred
skirt yoke, have crept into the fashions for
children. Aside from this, there is no nota-
BILE change in fashions for little folk. In
common with their elders, they will wear
much green and brown, while American
beauty red will be a popular hue for the
girl who needs a dash of color in her cos
tune. AS Easter comes early, cloth, chf-
fon, velvet and silk will form the majority
of Easter and spring costumes. but the
springlike touch dear to childish hearts
will be offered in the hats, which are veri-
table wildernesses of flowers.
Another accessory of the spring costume,
which is really a necessity, Is the lace col
lar. There is absolutely nothing in the
child's wardrobe which will save wear
and tear on a mothers nerves like a good
lace collar. In heavy Russian lace, Irish
point, point de Venise or Paraguay, it will
renew the life of a made-over dress, and
best of ALL will bear innumerable cleanngs
on its own part, If carefully handled. The
deep, round lace collar is still worn by
children and there come also collars with
pelerine effects in the front, or long tabs
over the shoulders.

new spring coat for her little girl can

ever-lengthening shoulder seam, too, no
longer permits the bodice to fit as snugly as
of yore. The full summer waists hang with
much of the old spencer looseness, but in
stead of the low neckband of other days
the unlned stock seems to be mounting to
greater heights than ever.
1t is not everybody who will be able to
wear the extremes in these styles, and it Is
noticed that conventional wearers still OBJ
serve what might be styled a certain stiff
ness. That is, their skirts are only of me-
dunn width, with the fullness coming in
some distance below the waist. The length
of the shoulder seam is kept within bounds,
the sleeves are not too vouminous and the
shoulder trimmings are without undula ton.
A group of pretty costumes of moderate
character are fashioned after late French
models. Soldier blue is the tint of cloth
gown, showing strappings and wide bias

English Women Masters of Hounds.

From the Illustrated Sporting News.
The line of demarcation between mems
sports and those that may consistently be
participated in by women is being broken
down and obliterated in so many places ana
ways nowadays that the time seems fast
approaching when the whole range of sport
will be a field common to both sexes alike.
Not long ago the idea of woman master
of the foxhounds would have been scoffed
at in England, nor would any woman-no
matter how well qualified to discharge that
duty-dream of aspiring to the office. The
complete change in public opinion in this
respect is emphasized by the displacement
of Mr.. r. Hole in the mastership of the
Seavington Harriers by Miss Philips OF
Montacute House, Somerset. Thus, the
gradually expanding list of women masters
of hounds receives in Great Britain nota-
BILE addition. At the present time packs OF
barriers are being hunted in Great Britain
by Mrs Cheape, Lady Clifford, Mrs. Pryse-
Rice Miss Bally and Miss McClintock- Mrs.
Cheape, who is known through Warwick
shire and Worcestershire as THE Squire"
carries the Bentley and Willenhall Har-
riers, which are considered second to no
other pack of their kind in that country.
Mrs. T. H. R. Hughes is master OF the
Neuaddfawr Hounds in Wales, and Miss
Edith o. Somerville is master of the West
Carberry Hounds in Ireland. Hitherto the
mastership has been considered suitable
only to a man of firm, determined charac-
ter, and the change is a curious revolution.
illustrative of the important position wo-
men are rapidly acquiring In matters OF

FOR BoUDoIR WEAR. :
Simple and Dainty Things Tor Beauty
and Use. 81 80

Written for The Evening Star.
The simple japanese kimona is in greater
favor than ever for neglige wear, because
of its ease and grace and the quickness
with which 1t can be arranged or discarded.
Many beautiful and quite oriental designs
in cotton crepes are shown in the shops for
this purpose. These can be made up quick
ly and inexpensively, or, If desired, fash
Toned out of dainty silks. The boudoir maid
who affects kimonas usually wears the heel
less toilet slipper made out of a piece of
the fabric in her kimona.
The short kimona is also much favored,
and is usually made of cotton or silk crepes
or of handkerchiefs. Red and blue bandan-
as and white handker chiefs with colored
borders are favorite for this neglige. More
fullness is required for the kimona than the
combing ia cket.
The strictly Grecian costume of white,
made to fall very full in gathers, with cord
and tassel arrangement at the neck or
waist, is another style which finds high
favor. Sometimes the material is draped
to fall from the left shoulder or from both
in soft folds, held by a knot or buckle.
China and India silks, crepe de chimes and
cotton crepes are desirable for such robes.
For the thoroughly modern boudoir maid
a bewildering display of materials Is Of
fered-white and delicately tinted chiffons,
mousselines. GAUGES and point d'esprits. A
liberty silk robe is shown in opal shades,
with an opalescent seQuin girdle to secure
1t at the waist line.
Ruffled and plated ruchings have in
vaded the realm of the boudoir gown. A
red crepe de chine has angel sleeves Of ac-
Gordon pleated chiffon. edged with red
ruching. The yoke is made entirely of the
ruching, which has tiny silk cord edge.
Dressing gowns of the colonial style are
picturesque and becoming, in addition to
their merit of ease and comfort.
Many pretty and practical things are
shown in dressing sacques in China silks
and laces. A typical one was made Of blue
plated, fan-shaped pieces Of silk inserted
at intervals below the waist. This feature
also made a full, graceful collar and
sleeves.
Pongee sacques with heavy lace collars of
Irish crochet make serviceable garments.
Tha honeycomb effect is pleasing feature
of the newest pongee boudoir sacques 1t
gives graceful folds, and is varied by little
touches of beading and tinsel.
