THE DAINTY
"PETER THOMPSON"

Undoubtedly the little frocks known as
the Peter Thompson dresses claim prece-
dence over a1l other school dresses. In
the first place the style is simple; again,
It is a style suited to almost all young
girls and there is an opportunity to
decorate the dresses in any style, for they
can be plain or ornamental. The plated
skirt Is n~eatest, though others are as
dressy II banded with a different kind OF
material to match the dress goods. Scotch

More funny things happen than can
be counted in a days shopping, espe-
eially in the holiday season, when wom-
en-. men and children walk along NUT
tering to themselves and coming slips
of paper, dingy from long handling,
only waking up" to dive into the
nearest store to purchase a desired
article before it slips their mind.
A woman stood in front of the post
office yesterday afternoon gazing va
cantly into space, and unconsciously
talking aloud as she counted imaginary
parcels on her fingers. "If l pay SO
for Sarah's dressing gown I'll only be
able to pay 81 for Johns cigars, sand l
know he won't want such cheap ones.
And I cannot get him anything else
for a dollar, and Sarah almost told me
she wanted that gown, and there's the
nuts and candy and dates and extras
for the children, and the washwoman's
baby, and l wonder which Is
pretfiest for a little girls hair, pink
or blue -"
''Blue, II she's a blonde, and pink
IL she's dark" interrupted I, who had
been listening to her monologue with
growing amusement.

CHRISTMAS IN
OTHER LANDS.
Quaint Russian Customs.

QUHIMt Htu8BHHH OuBtOn1Bs
At Christmas time IN the Russian
provinces, as at Halloween in other coun-
tries, popular superstition holds that it is
very easy to read the future. The girls
read the future by breaking an egg in a
glass of water and deducing their fate
from the shape 1t takes. first leaving It
before the shrine of SOME saint, or by
pouring melted wax into cold water. The
final test of fate is to put a ring of each
guest into a large pan, covered with a
cloth, being careful to place three bits Of
charcoal and small pieces of bread and
salt at the psychic angle of the pan The
rings are all turned with a spoon while
the girls sing songs. At the end OF each
song, says the Travel Magazine, a ring
is pulled out and the song that has been
sung is known to foretel the future of
the owner of the ring.

TUMIc EFFECTS.

Some Of the new skirts for dressy
gowns have tunic effects, but rather
carried out by an upper skirt Of trim
ming than by an upper skirt of the ma
terial.
1t Is more than probable that what
will succeed the present type OF toilet
will in some form or other be the
tunic.
Such, at any rate, is the opinion Of
many dressmakers, and were the tunic
boldly launched for q dressy sort of a
winter toilette. nobody in Paris would
be taken much by surprise, so it is said.
Still this is more likely to be brought
out for very late rather than the
early winter, and for evening rather
than street wear.

TO PLEASE
THE LITTLE ONES,

To be filed with candy or toys. The
outline of any sized stocking will do,
but the leg portion must be cut long
enough to allow for a two-inch hem at
the top. The stocking is cut in two
pieces rom cape net. Turn

top. Lay the two pieces together with
the turned-under edges inside and over
hand the two sides together with red

with white tops and heels and a bell
sewed on at the heel and toe are at
tractive and delight the children.

A CHRISTMAS SONG.

An amusing act in a song for little folks
is arranged in this manner Let all Of the
little girls and boys be dressed with shoes
on their hands. A narrow curtain is drawn
across the edge of the stage to hide their
hands. While singing the chorus, the little
folks lkneel down and hold up their hands.

all were standing on their heads, with their
feet in the air. Some one should ompcse
a merry little topsy-turvy chorus to make
the song as lRughable as possible. It IS Q
clever act for the little folks at a church
entertainment.

for this cause.

The county Executive Com
mittee earnestly solicits the aid
Of every citizen to help establish
state wide prohibition in the
new state. The fact that we
are between Texas on the south
and Kansas on the north, two
states that are putting out the
liquor traffic, makes it more
urgently necessary for our good
that we establish laws to pre-
vent our state from becoming
the dumping ground for the
driven out whiskey elements of
these states. We cannot hope
to escape the dreadful vices
which fOllw this element unless
we establish laws prohibiting
the sale Of whiskey.
Oklahoma should be the ideal
state Of the nation. PrOhibi-
ton is. without doubt. one of
the laws which must be enacted
to make il such.
Let every one get ON the side
of temperance and good govern
ment and vote for state wide
prohibition on September II.
