 Don't laugh, mean ready made Nearly all the large department stores have some winter model gowns lett over.

 The store keeps the gown in good order for you all the summer, and since the gowns used ss models are usually in advance of the styles there is little or no danger of their being out of date in a few months.

ELDER ROBERTS SPEAKS.
Adheres To POlygamOus Practices And
 Ridiculea Miniaters

Salt Lake City, Utah, June 9-A sen sational feature of the controversy which has been waged between the ministers of the evangelical churches and the Mormon priesthood was the ad- dress delivered in the Tabernacle to- day by Elder Roberts, once excluded from the congress because of his poly gamous practices.
 He spoke in reply to an open letter published by the ministerial associa- ton. Elder Roberts frankly declared that the church had surrendered not one iota of its belief in the principle of polygamy but countenanced no poly gamous marriages while they were forbidden by law. AS for himself. he said:
 T stand exactly where I did ten years ago-namely, that though the church proclaimed against the contin- nation of this relationship, though the State proclaimed against it, neither the church nor the State may absolve the moral obligations I am under or re- lease me from that moral duty"
 MT. Roberts characterized the Chris tian ministers as belonging to a third sex, neither male nor female and said they were better qualified for pink teas than statesmanship. All of the high officers of the church. including President Smith were present.

'All summer sir. Miss Smith has went to the Hot Springs.

 The cook said Miss Smith would be sixty-four next September, sir" Of whom are you speaking, JonesT My reference is to the maiden party sir Miss Smith, Mrs. Smiths sister-in- law"
 Tom felt his face grow white. He stared stonily at his plate.
 And she let me call her Miss Smithr' ne murmured, remark which, If his man heard, he gravely ignored
 For a week Tom fingered about his veranda and garden, desolate and dis contented, and when summons came from Holly House on Friday morning he blessed the fates. Holly House, at least, would have no haunting mem ories of her presence. Mrs Robertss message ran.
 Third call to Holly House. Will you come Saturday,"
 His reply was brief and expressive: T will if have to waik.-Tom"
 Having secured his seat half an hour before the train left, Tom was deep in his paper when the train boys began to cry their wares "Popular hooks of fba doy, pono.. maeazines"
 Give me "Harper's" said a quiet voice from the seat behind.

It was she who broke the silence Tt Is strange that thev have never said anything to either of us about the other" she unused Where were you last Saturday, Sum- day, Monday" demanded Tom, ab- rupt1y.

lack of the right kind of outdoor ex- ercise. Women coop themselves up, fIling their lives with useless trffles like putting fine embroidery on the clothes of a perfectly unappreciativo infant. Meantime they are losing both interest in outside life and health. Some day, when the child Is grown up. 1t will have a mother who is an invalid and who is perfectly unable to keep up with it either physically or mentally.
 The most sensible women l know dress their children very plainly.
 You would be surprised at the number of fifty cent ready made dresses worn by the children of peo- pie who really have money" said saleswoman in one of the large depart ment stores recently. We always keep on hand a large assortment of six months and year old sizes in dress at fifty cents, and flannel petit coats at eighty-five cents and ninety five cents, and our best customers buy them. It Is not the fashion to spend money on tiny babies things any more. They are made to be sensible and comfortable. that's all. great many mothers do not put their babies fin long clothes at all. and most wo- men dress their. little ones with the single flannel petticoat. leaving off the

 Before a mining property is devei- oped it passes through the stage known as a prospect" In this stage the property lacks one or all Of the three requirements, money for development intelligent development, and provision for the treatment of the ores Tne lack of the second requirement alont makes investclent at this stage noth. ing but a gamble, as no one knowA how much ore is under the surface un' til after 1t is uncovered.
 After the three requirements are full filled, the stock is no longer offered TOT sale by the company and If bought Tn the open market does not offer larger returns than bank stocks or others.
 Between these two stages, however, comes one where the mine Is sufficient ly developed to show enormous ore bodies. but the company Is forced 10 sell stock to provide necessary machin- cry, mills. etc.
 This is the proper time to invest as the ore bodies guarantee safety ana the future work guarantees big profits:

New York. June s-The cotton market opened irregular at an advance of thirty points to decline of one point. the big gain being on the uJly option. which was one more under influence of covering by frightened shorts and various rumors re- garding a possible corner in that position.
 The first sale in July was 1.l00 and that position sold at 12.25 on the call. Later fluctuations were irregular and there was heavy realizing for over the holiday with the new crop relatively easy owing to favor- able weather in the south.

 After the early advance the cotton mar ket became quiet and the July option lost most of it's gain under profit taking by short interest the price recedipg to l2c pound The market closed firm at a net advance of POT points. Sales were estimated at 300, 900 bales
