The fine machine-made lingerie gown
with few hand stitches cunningly in
troduCed among the machine applied
threads works wonders. Bits Of bold
relief embroidery done with coarse cot
ton floss Is perhaps more effective than
any ether hand-wOrk and does not re-
quirc an expert needlewOman to execute
II with satisfactory results. Filet lace
IS again in vogue, but instead OF the fat
designs that made filet attractive we
now have raised figures interviewer in
the square meshes and sometimes addi-
tional elaboration in the form Of appli-
cation of lace motifs. Filet lace Is most
attractive when combined with plain
net OF the same mesh and made over
silk.
There Is something emphatfcallv
charming about the deep cream-c olored
filet nets embroidered with white and
made over white silk foundations: the
lining makes the figures stand out in
bold relief and the rich cream color
lends itself more favOrably TO the com
binatiOn than almost any other tone
The filet lace dress may be made as
costly as one desires.

4 "a ON LAW FOR DISTRICT. "


WASHINGTON. D. G., Oct 2S. -By
the time that Congress meets the ma
tional officers OF the Anti.saloon Lea
que will be very busy in Washington
They have been wonderfully elatet
with their success in Oklahoma and
from now on they Will aim to make
Washington, the capital OF the nation
a dry town. A week ago It was III
timatea that the Anti.Saioon Leagut
would plan to have Congress pass q
law this coming winter absolutely
abollshing every saloon in the Dis
trict. This was thought impossible
even by the most Jealous leaguers, bu,
a more moderate sort OF campaign will
be begun. Az.
The latest decision OF the Anti-Sa;
loon League is to ask Congress for n
local option law like that Of Ohio. II
is known as the district local option
measure. II Congress bows to the
wishes of the Anti.SaIoon League peo.
pie. they will get law. giving power
to hold elections in certain localities
of the national capital. They would
ask that all saloons in certain resi-
dence locality be abolished by a vote
of the residents in that section.
The district will be mapped by
streets and squares and the property
owners and voters will be asked to
vote wet or dry. The temperance PEG.
pie claim that they can wipe ont all
the saloons Of Washington outside Of
the business district. and that will be
a start towards ultimate prohibition
In the whole city.
Some Of the worst saloons are near
the best residential parts of town.
These doggeries would be quickly yot.
ed out by the citizens and the moral
effort would be cheering to the league
all over the country. There will be
much agitation on the part Of the II.

League. and the congressman who
come from temperance districts, espe.

The liquor men were laughing at the

being made dry-they are not laughing
at the inch by inch method which will
be tried this coming session.

Grant District School Notes.

II the health officer should visit
some OF the schools. he would find
them in very unsanitary condition.
Ash piles. waste paper. old boards,
rubbish. etcetera, have been allowed
TO accumulate in many instances. Let
us remember, teachers, that the thor.
onghly successful teacher Is always
ready and willing to do more than
the law requires: and that well kent
grounds promote order and system
within. We can very materially aid
the board Of education In their COOL
work this year by seeing that these
conditions do not exist.
This week. in company with County
Superintendent Faust. we visited n
school where the grounds had grown
up with briers and the ash pile was Il
very prominent object about 10 or Is
feet from the door. 1t was just the
morning recess when We drove In and
moments survey OF. the surround.
ings told us what was hest to be done.
Receiving the hearty support OF the
teacher. three boys volunteered to
help. A nearby farm house supplied
scythe. rake, shovel and pitchforls.
The ash pile was removed. The house
had been shinelcd year ago and the
old shingles still lay under the evcs.
These were burned. the brlers anil
weeds cut down and thrown into the
FIRE also During the noon hour the
blinds, found standing In one corner
OF the room, were hung to the win
