KIMoNo SLEEVE COMING.
And now, Banza1, for the kimono
sleeve! Paris, we are told, adores it.
Paris, f1ourishing the Big Stick OF
fashion dictator, declares for Japanese
invasion of style. We must wear the
loose, flowing sleeve borrowed from
the little brown women.
At the city of Paris, Madame Nc
Crafts husband said that Madame
could not answer my inquiries about
the eliminated veil and the voluminous
sleeve of the season, for the excellent
reason that Madame is even now
speeding toward San Francisco from
Paris with no less than a hundred
models, revelations of the mid-Febru-
airy exhibits in the French metropolis.
We must wait day or so to know the
precise length, breadth and thickness
of the new Jappy arm covering. But
the most recent models sent from New
York show a modified kimono sleeve.

diste. Here we see so much of the
kimono and of embroidered silks from
Japan and China that they are no
novelty. AS for wells, San Francisco
women will never give them up. How
can they-in our breezy climate?"
Said another modiste who makes the
figures-I mean fine costumes-for wo-
men of local wealth and fashion:

Mr.. Bode, who for a long time has
been faithfully working with a select
ed chorus to produce Stainers Cruel
fxion, has reason to be congratulated
on the ultimate results, although the
organist feels he has had strenuous
siege. Those who had the pleasure of
hearing this work feel especially
grateful to him as it practically never
happens that Honolulansa hear any
thing even bordering on oratorio work.
1t is step at least that Mr.. Bode has
dared to take and those in the chorus
and solo work should feel glad they
have been able to help him to this end.
In spite of grippe and dengue and per-
haps other causes many at the last
minute were unable to be at their
posts but even then it is a great deal
to say that the affair was accomplish
ed. Hundreds enjoyed the work and it
is safe to say that hundreds more
would have had that pleasure, but for
the capacity of the place where it was
held. Archie Wall had most of the
solo work to do, which he did excep-
tionally well. Give Davies assisted in
the solo work in spite of a very severe
cold. The organ fund, it is to be
hoped, was swelled. The cathedral Is

several days before Mr.. Cleghorn had
been suffering with the grippe and on

had expected to do the honors for the

ceive for him, which she did. ably as
sisted by Miss Elsa Schaefer, Miss

Wells are down and out. Paris says
SO.
New York, of course, echoes the edict
of Paris. Therefore, the coming of the
crocuses marks the going of the veil.
1t is as unexpected as the Growing of
a rooster at midnight, but when did
Fashion ever do the anticipated thing ?
Vale the veil-empty as last years
birds nest. But it has served it's illu-
sionary purpose well, as all we women
know. No ostrich with head poked in
to the sand ever lulled itself into such
fancied security from detection as a
freckled, spotted-skin, tired, blotchy,
unbeautiful woman in partial eclipse
behind a yard of chiffon. A veil de-
ceives nobody save the wearer, but
her peace of mind is above rubies.
The oculists, naturally, decry the
veil in it's injurious variety. Doctors
are apt to say sensible, disagreeable
things. What can a man be supposed
to know of woman's Unsuitable longing
to be lovelier than she really is? The
scientific man is always the most I'M

cate question of feminine vanity.

Paris plus New York, however, may

WORLDS HOP CROP
-Four Countries Grow Most of the
Production of World.

At an early date the United States
department of agriculture will issue
bulletin so of the bureau of statistics,
prepared by Eugene Merritt, scientific
assistant in the division of foreign
markets. This bulletin is report con-
cerning the production of hops
throughout the world, the international
trade, the prices, the consumption of
hops in principal countries, and the
relationship of hops to beer bewing.
Four countries grow Sc per cent of
the hop crop of the world England
is preceptibiy in the lead with pro-
duction Of 2S1 per cent of the total
the crop of 1905 being adopted as the
leading one for which information is
available for all countries. Next in
order stand Germany with 1913 per cent.
the United States with 20 per cent, and
Austria Hungary with ia per cent.
The relative present standing of these
four countries is fairly indicated by
the crop of 1906 but the report shows
that Notwithstanding the large crops
of 1905, the hop production of England
and Germany is declining, while that
of the United States is distinctly gain
ing.
A pecuiarity of hop growing made
manifest in this report is that ii is ex-
tremely localized, not only in the
United States, but in other countries.
According to the census of 1900, less
than / per cent of the crop Of the
United States was grown outside Of
New York, Washington, Oregon, and
California, and within these states the
crop is confined to certain very re-
strctcd areas. In New York most OF
the crop Is grown in parts of the coun-
ties OF Otsego, Schoharie. Madison
Oneida, and Franklin, mentioned in or
der of the size of crop; most of the
crop OF Washington is grown i'm three
counties OF Yakima Pierce, and King;
four counties in Oregon produce most
of the states crop. namely. Marion,
Polk. Yamhll. and clackamas; and In
California the crop Of the state Is
grown mostly In Sonoma. Sacramento
Mendiclno. and Yuba counties. T'he
foregoing statement holds good for the
crop of 1893 hu; since that year there
has been a marked extension OF areas

SALT AS A BEAUTIFIER.

In the way Of beauty cults there is
always something new under the sun
and there never lack women so pa
thetically eager to be pretty that they
hungrily seize on each new crumb of
advice, says the Philadelphia Public
Ledger
The latest edict then, is that to pos
sess a fairly peachy skin, soap and
water must be eschewed and salt and
milk substituted.
One woman has tried it declared
that if women who spend so much
time over their complexions and 81
much money on facial beautifiers
would simply wash their faces at night
with salt or apply a salt and milk
solution. they would not only have
better skins. but save their money be-
sides.
Her own rose leaf complexion, she
says, is due to this method Al night
she washes her face in very hot water,

proportions, is party based upon the
re-exported hops from Germany and
Austria Hungary
In 1904 the hOp-exporting countries
shipped 65,000,000 pounds of hops,
some degree of duplication being in
volved because of reshipments. This
quantity came out Of the worlds crop
of about III, 100000 pounds, SO that in
ternational trade handles about three
eighths of the entire crop.
Half of the hops that go into inter-
national trade are shipped to the Uni
ted Kingdom, and these hops are
chiefly brought from the United
States, the fraction of British imports
contributed by this country often pe-
ing one-half or considerably more.
The countries of secondary import
ance in the import trade in hops,
which received from 100000 to g.
100000 pounds each in 1904. were Bel
gium, France, Germany, the Neither
lands and the United States
The APPARENT anomaly of the United
States as an importing country, while
being second exporting in order OF I'M
portance, is explained by the fact that
the brewers Of the United States pre-
fer Austrian and German hops on ac-
count of their extremely high quail
ity for certain desired results in brew
ing.
London, Nuremberg, and New York
are the worlds three leading hop
markets. The price of hops is SUD-
ject to very wide fluctuation. The
quantity wanted by the world varies
not greatly from one year to the fol-
lowing, so that shortage or abund-
ance in the crop is reflected in the
ix, afn1, ho is. m
dicated by the percentage of defici-
ency or abundance. The prices or hops
in New York are affected more
by prices in london than in
Nuremberg, the reason being that
American hops are largely the ce-
penGence Of British brewers and do
noe enter perciptibly into continent
al trade.
AS far bact as 1886 tie United
States imported half a million pounds
of hops, and the amount grew to g.
| 000, 900 pounds in 1882, since which
time the amount has ranged from that
quantity to 100000 or 100000
| pounds annually, with the excepnon
of two or three years, until 1905, when
the imports rose to 10,000,000 pounds.
On the other hand, the domestic
exports of hops ranged from quarter
of a million to a million pounds in
the period from 1851 to 1853, after
which period the exports continued
to be subject to great fluctuations, in
some years rising to as many as l0,-
100000 to 21,000,000 pounds. In 1905,
which was years of extra
ordinary imports the exports ex-
ceeded them by o. ly 100000
pounds, or about one third of the us
