market value of homestead lands as
such Is a price that may have little or
10 relation to It's intrinsic value II Of
Tered for sale Internationally to any
and all Corners.
1T is the price at which it will be
accepted by bona fde homesteaders
whatever that price is. If people will

So IL means that the market value of
that land as homestead land at that

q corporation stands ready TO pay $1,000
an acre for II, unincumbered by the
conditions of the homestead law AMI
the imperative duty is upon the ap'
praisers to Tx its price at So, and upon
the government to sell at the same
price.
IL do not understand that the home
stead laws are to be imperative as to
public lands fit for homesteads until
those willing to take homesteads are
ready TO pay the price that the govern.
ment thinks II ought to get. Under
the law the nomesteaders state the
price, and the government and the APP
praisers must accept and follow. The
lands are there to be cut up for homes
II any citizens want them and at the
best price the homesteaders are willing
TO give, whatever IL Is. Moreover 1
do not understand that II Is the policy
OF the land laws to stir up competition.
The government Is called upon TO scrut.
inize most closely whether the appli.
cant Is bona fide homeseeker or not,
and whether he is making the land he
gets his home in truth and In fact or
for instance, under q 999 year lease,

ing. and that otherwise public lands
are sold by appraisement and not by
competition shows most emphatically
that the purpose of the land laws Is to
get settlers and not money.
'In the case Of the Molokans, who
are seeking to acquire lands at Kapaa,
they are generally known to be genu'
inc homeseekers; the fact that they are
willing to occupy their lands 10 years
before getting title Is substantial evl.
dence OF their good faith. They are
willing, understand and offer to pay
81 per acre for the land in question
no one else is bidding more, the gov.
eminent II seems to me, should accept
that figure as the price to date.
Anyhow, now that homesteaders
are willing to take up the land, the gov.
eminent, II seems to me, should ac'
cept. 1t is not called upon to drum up
opposition bids. II 1t is great bar
gain so much the better, 1t will sci
others to applying for land.
Il do not believe the Russians should
be given any advantage over the resi-
ident, but as things stand, ! think the
offer should be accepted, and II any
would be settlers now here feel az
Grieyed, the best thing for them to dc
isc to get after other land and ask
: tor the same terms. Public lands are
here to be cut up as promptly as pos
/ sible at whatever figure Is offered"

THAT PERKY AIR
Is Evident in Our Everyday Street
Costumes This Spring.

We do not have to attend a fancy ball
to assume what for better name might
be styled the nqw approved perky air
The modes of the spring and summer
absolutely demand it as an everyday
characteristic. We have tip-tilted hats,
sprfghtly, diminutive, and piquant; our
sleeves spring jauntily from our should
ers, our bodices are trinity belted, our
skirts swirl smartly about our feet Veri-
ly the day of the little woman is at
hand, she of the robin type of beauty
bright of eye. quick OF movement, and
round OF figure.
II we cannot be beautiful and pictur-
esque and perky" we can at least be
smart and practical. And talking of prac-
tical reminds me of the very sensible lit
tie suits some of the best courturieres
are making of the new checked mohair
This is as soft and plant as silk. and in
designs Of pin checks ii is particularly
smart. Brown and buff. blue and cream,
soft green and white and rose and white
are stunning coloringS, barred off with
threads of black.
These checked suits are made up in the
simplest fashion. the skirts being usually
knife plated, which is very much newer
than the killed junes

CasIefp in Sfpkes of Shoes.

The variety of new styles for spring
and summer covers a broader range
than ever before, and the introduction
of new feathers and new colors, says
the Shoe Retailer, has made possible
new combinations and artistic effects
never before attempted in footwear.
The choicest goatskins of Morocco
have been tanned in beautiful shades
of the fashionable colors and made UP
in very attractive afternoon shoes for
women.
Pumps Of patent leather and dull kid,
with stiff leather bows to match. will
be used for dress occasions.
Tan Russia calfskin and Russia goat
skin and white shoes of duck and buck
skin will divide popular favor for out
door affairs in the summer.
Gun kid and gun metal calf in light
weights are the newest features of
mems and women's shoes. and both ap-
pear to be rapidly gaining in popular
ity- These feathers have a dull. rich
luster, and are easily kept in condition.
They are shown in Oxfords and evening
pumps.
Pumps are again becoming generally
| popular as a gentleman's evening dress
shoe, shown in patent and duh feathers.

Food fos Thought

How to live comfortably with one
neighbor-that is the problem. to avoid
the knocks and frictions which draw
lines In mems faces and too often con-
tract their souls. 1t is paradoxical. but
true, that the larger the soul becomes
the more room it creates for itself-a
margin of quictness in which it re-
mains untouched by petty jealousies aud
hurts. By the practice of charity ard
unselfishness a life builds for itself
more stately mansions wherein 1t may
dwell in peace.
A song in ones heart a smile upon
ones lips. a CHEEKY. wholesome message
of good will on ones tongue are won
derful helps to all kinds of people.
There are SO many burdens of sorrow
and care and poverty and sin: so many
doubling. discouraged, tempted hearts.
To comfort and to make strong, to lift
up and to bless-are these not missions
worth while? Try it, friend. and prove
how truly your own heart and mind
are cheered and made brave by your
very endeavor to carry sunshine into
dark places.

ART or pERFuMING

certain young girl discovered very
early in life that she was neither clever
ror beautiful. She did not even have
the knack of being stylish, and she was
! not born rich. She determined simply
TO be sweet. And she has succeeded SO
well that she is engaged to be married
to one of the incest and richest men In
her set.
First Of all, she cultivated a sweet
smile smile which never came off. -
She studied the art of saying sweet
things to people and though she be-
came known as a flatterer everybody
continued to enjoy having those things
said to him. She grew sweet flowers in
her window garden, read sweet books.
learned how TO make sweet things to
eat and, most important of all, cultivat-
ed a sweet personality in the matter of
{ othes and perfumes. And now we are
getting to the point.
She became an artist in the use of
Sachets and incense. She Stunned liquid
perfumes because she considered them
loud without being truly sweet. She
bought few pounds OF the finest and
fdrest sachet q. sort of mixture of orris
and sandalwood. With satin pads heav-
ily scented with this sachet she lined
every bureau drawer. every glove box,
handkerchief box and pin tray She
made large pads of siikoline asld cotton
batting. with which She lined the walls
of her clothes closet. Next she made
tiny fat pads. which she double-scented
aid sewed into each of her frocks and
hats.
After that she bought fine strip
of perfumed Spanish leather (peau
d Espagne), which she cut into smaller
strips and inserted among all her little
belongings. She bought box of hair
powder and dropped into 1t few
pinches OF her sachet, laid piece OF
the leather cn top of it and closed the
box She prepared a breath perfume
Of orri- and cinnamon. which was better
and less offensive than the horrible
bought pastilles.
Finally she manufactured some in
cense pastilles according to a formula
found in an old book and containing
sandal wood. benzoin. cloves, cinnamon,
nitre. and charcoal This she mixed to-
gether with gum tragacanih and rolled
into tiny sticks to be set on fire in
silver vase Her curtains, her portieres,
and even her carpets. were filled with
sachet.
Thus did she attain the high art OF
perfuming, which is to permeate with a
faint delicate odor ones clothes, ones
and everything one
touches.

GlPDLES POPULAR

Ribbon girdIes promise to be extremely
desirable for spring and summer wear
They will be worn with alI-white cos
tunes and also to set off fabrics which
show delicate colorings on a white
ground. The variety of tfnts in plain
ribbon, the peculiar combination of col
ors In single girdle. and the magnifi-
cent designa Of the 1owered ribbons pre-
sent most bewildering array TO the
discriminating shopper
Whatever the ribbon selected, the gen
eral shape Of the g1rdle remains the
same, high, stiff. and shaped distinctly
TO the figure. Generally 1t is pointed
botL back and front. for very few fig
ures will carry the round cincr,Ire.
From the Orient come ideal girdles
for wear with an all-white costume. the
silks for which the Far East Is famous
being done in heavy er.i55ro,;iery. Some
OF these are embroidered IN silver or gold
thread Others are embroidered in all
white, and are set off by gorgeous clasps
and Buckles studded with Oriental gems
Heavy linen girdies are also shown
for wear with wash waists. and these
are enhroidered in eyelet work, and I'm
isheo with great pearl clasps or buckles.
These pearl buckles have supplanted
metal on the wash belts and girdIes.
Ribbon gfrdles all follow the game
general lines, being built on founda-
ton of bone hidden by very fine shfr-
rings. and foundations can be bought
ready made. The shirrings curve to fol-
low the lines of the figure, and are
frequently finished off with tassels, bits
of passementerie. or flowers made from
chiffon or ribbon
One of the color combinations ,,;,icb
promises to be extremely popular Is
that of the softest pastel shades.
very high girdle made from liberty tat
feta ribbons showed pale lavender. pink
and blue in the pastel tints, and an
other showed the pastel green instead
OF the pink in combination with the
blue and lavender. This gfrdle was f,n-
ished at the back with position tails
of the ribbon headed by an impossfb,a
but very beautiful flower like a crushed
peony made from the ribbon.

pONGEE SILK POPULAR
In Natural Shades and Pale Colors
Wears Finely and Washes Well.

| Not only is pongee in its natural col
| or attractive but in the different shades
pastel blue, red, apple green, COLDER
bown, etc, it Is quite irresistible. Then
! this texture washes so well, IS so light
! and cool, and also wears so much bet
| ter than any material at all Ike it that
| for the shirt waist gown there is moth
| ing so good There are many varieties
| of the silk, principal among them being
| what is known as ''rajah, which in a
way is better than pongee itself. as 1t
| does not need to be pressed so often in
| order to look fresh at all times.
White at the Throat.
Although there may be q deal Of white
at the troat and wrists it is well not to
make up shirt waist gown in too eiab-
at the throat and wrists it is well not to
washed the simpler the dress the bet
ter it will clean, and also a plain style
OF costume is more appropriate for a
morning and travelling dress. Guimpes
are always most convenient for warm
weather. for instead of having to have
the whole waist cleaned when the col
lar and cuffs become soiled the guiapes
can very easily be laundered. 1t is we'll
to have two guimpes provided so that
while the one is being made up the
dress may still be worn. Just iiosy much
of the guimpe should be allowed to show
at the yoke and sleeve depends of
course, on personal choice but when
white can be kept fresh it looks delight
fully cool In hot weather.
Made With Guimpes.
One pretty pongee gown was cut for
quite a deep round guimpe. and the
sleeves consisted of only long caps cut
up the center and held lightly by tiny
straps. the material finished off with
small pearl buttons. A row of these
straps joined to a narrow band was laid
about the neck of the gown. The waist
itself was laid in inch wide box pleats.
The skirt was made with box pleats
about the hips, stitched down, however.
on each side. The plaits were opened
just below the knees. while from some
six inches above the hem were added
some inch-wide tucks to insure the flare
about the feet. With the dress was
worn q wide boned girdle with short
bias ends al the back
Simplicity Attractive.
Another model owed all its charms
and style to its apparent simplicity. This
gown was of apple green rajah, made
without any white, save in the collar
and cuffs a band OF Irish insertion only
an inch in width was laid between two
pieces of inch-wfde accordion plated
rajah. The waist, onened down the
front, was trimmed back and front with
three-irch straps of the material, edged
with the accordion plated ruching like
that on The collar and cuffs. The sleeves
consisted of two puffs, the lower one
coming slightly below the elbow, finished
with accordion plated ruffie above the
tucked and plated cuff. The skirt had
numberless fine tucks about the hips.
while six folds of the material, again
edged with the plated ruching were
added from below the knees The girdIe
was not very wide. but fastened in back
and was quite full. The skirt cleared
the ground by & good two inches. as the
costume was essentially walking
gown.
