White silk parasols will be seen
both in the plain varieties and those
that are painted or printed in lovely
floral designs. There are those that
have Dresden designs upon them,
and lace insets that perfectly fit the
sections as though they were made
for them. Many of the new parasols
are of light colored silks with tucked
and bordered edges, which will be
used at the seaside and summer re-
sorts.
Among this host of sunshades were
number of dark greens, some of
brown and ecru and even navy blue
with printed borders, and some that
looked as though they were cut from
very wide ribbon with fancy borders.
A favorite style seems to be a group
of three tucks with a border above
on the darker colored parasols.
Painting is always a favor.te mode
of decoration. but to be satisfactory
1t must be done very well. Great
trailing branches of roses, wistaria,
loose bunch of violets or number
of lilacs, as though strewn across the
sections, are much liked as designs.
Embroidery is another feature of
decoration that is as much liked for
parasols and sunshades as it is for
gowns and dress accessories. There
are beautifully embroidered Japanese
styles and all sorts of embroideries
are used as well as the introduction
of laces and woven insets.
OF course, there is the lace and
chiffon parasols, which is used for
very dressy functions and for car
riage use. In contrast with these
are those of cretonne and it is said
in Paris that they are quite the fad,
while few have been shown on this
side of the water, but whole parasol
of cretonne is not to many minds an
artistic effect.
the plain coaching parasol, hand
some wood is preferred to everything
else, but there are to be noticed some
extreme effects in the carvings, such
as birds heads, swans necks and the
heads of animals; but after all the
simple, plain finished knob handle is
liked best by women of good taste
For the more elaborate parasols of
lace, embroidered borders, painted
or printed effects, long handles of
delicately tinted wood that resem-
bles enamel, topped with a gold or
gold inset with a jewel at the end,
are much favored. Some handles are
shown of bone with fine carvings up
on them, especially those of ivory.

She WANTS
A DIVORCE

This afternoon i'm the county court
Mrs. Sarah A. Giltner, the well
known milliner, filed suit for an alb
solute divorce from her husband, Ell
mcr Il. Giltner, who is resident of
another state at this time and who
is not known in Grand Junction.
The plaintiff asks for the divorce
on the grounds of desertion and nom
support. She states that she mar
ried Gihner on January 80, 1901, at
Harmon, Arapahoe county, Colo. To
the couple one child was born-a
son, now four years of age and
whose name is Elmer Giltner.
Mrs. Giltner alleges that for sew
eral years her husband has made no
effort to contribute to the support of
herself or their child, although she
made him a good and faithful wife.
The plaintiff asks for the custody
of the child. She asks for no alimo-
ny. Her attorneys are Messrs.
Wheeler & Weiser.
The plaintiff is very handsome
young woman and has been resi-
dent of Grand Junction about one
year. She conducts millinery es-
tablishment in the city.

new STYLES
IN PARASOLS

New York, May 5.-In "the good
old summer time" which is now
rapidly approaching, milady of fash
ion will need new stock of parasols
to protect her delicate complexion
from the torrid rays of Old Sol. The
New York shop keeper has had this
idea in mind for some time, and the
result is one of the most elaborate
displays of sunshades that have ever
been shown in this city As in the
past, the woman who desires to be
lin style" will have a parasol to
match every dress.
The distinctively new feature in
parasols is the use of pongee, and
very handsome they are as well as
practical. In the natural colored
material they can be used with a
great number of costumes and it is
in the natural color that they are
mot often seen. Border effects, too,
are singularly satisfactory in combin-
alton and there are both lined and
unlined sorts offered, SO that there
is ample opportunity for choice and
a great many things are provided for
in the one material.
There are a great many contrast
ing border effects and many of them
are exceedingly beautiful, but there
are also tucked borders. and the
plain coaching parasol is always in
order for general use. For the car
riage the simple sunshade of lace
over what silk with the hinged han
die will be exceedingly used and no
doubt its very general revival is in
part due to the needs of the motor
car, for it shades the eyes without
/ becoming the toy for the wind and
it really provides all the protection
that is needed while its form is such
that 1t is easily adjusted. But no

THE WEAKER PAREYT

Famous Psychologist Makes Most

of Life

+ London, May 4-Dr. Romme, +

+ I. + I. i + + Z.
DR.. Romme has been investigating
the question of sex for many years,
and his announcement of the law as
he has discovered it and his statis-
tics have caused widespread interest
and discussion. He declares it to be
universal law of nature that the
child resembles the weaker and not
the stronger of its parents.
In all countries the proportion is
found to be almost identical, namely
105 or loo girls to 100 boys. The
only exception is found after a great
war. This is because the best and
strongest men are sent to the front,
while the weakest remain behind.
The psychologist declares that ma

same sex before he or she disappears.
More Boys When War Rages.
Among barbarous nations, con-
tinually at war, there is always a
preponderance of boys over girls.
When an old man marries young
wife it is a proved fact that more
boys than girls are born, the oppo-
site being the case when the wife is
much older than the husband.
To every 1000 girls born, DR..
Romme says, there are S65 boys
when the father is younger than the
mother; 94S boys when both parents
are of the same age: 1.037 boys when
the father is from one to six years
older than the mother; 1,267 boys
when the father is from six to eleven
years older than the mother; 1,474
boys when the father is from eleven
to sixteen years older than the
mother. and 1882 boys when the
father is more than sixteen years
older than the mother.
Worry May Turn the Scale.
DR.. Romme asserts that there are
practically no instances where the
strength of both parents is equal.
Worry, Illness, any slight trouble, is
sufficient to turn the scale.

needs it more than 1 do. What is the
1 justification of that interference WITH
liberty?
There are a good many questions to-
| day concerning which we must ask that
Questionable justification for interior
ence with liberty. 1 found that justin
cation in the experience of Cambridge
under a no-license system. 1t seemed
! to me that the collective good, by Sex-
Guiding saloons from Cambridge, jusl-
fled the infringement of the individual
liberty, particularly when that liberty
was liberty to use for pleasure some
thing that was unwholesome.
II do not observe that the human race
has been so placed in this world that
temptations to evil are absolutely ex-
cluded. 1t seems to me that many
temptations are allowed to exist. and
that men are allowed to yield to them,
but when see a great collective good
accomplished at the expense of the loss
of trif1ing or unimportant individual
liberty, am reconciled to that amount
of interference with liberty.
but 1 just said that We have been
obliged to consider interference with
invidual rights in many directions OF
late. The reason is that this masslns
of population in small areas, crowdlng,
driving together in an unWholesome
manner has brought large NUMBER
of new problems into society; and then
nature herself is showing US that IN
many ways we cannot pit ourselves
against natural evils on the indiv1du-
alism principle.
For example. we in eastern Massa-
chusetfs have been vexed much with
the brown-tail moth. Now you cannot
destroy the brown-tail moth or prevent
it's ravages if every man and woman
who owns a lot of land shall be at
liberty to let the brown-tail moth
alone That is impossible. Nature Is
teaching us that collectivism must
sometimes override individualism.
I'VE have had repeated instances in
the government of our cities of the
same thing. For instance, when Bos-
ton had large part of its area burned
over in 1872 the Individual rights OF
the owner of each lot of land We're SO
insisted upon that Boston gained no
new layout whatever for its streets. nc
new vista into the harbor. no improve
ments whatever in it's public highways
or it's prospects, its outlook on the
harbor and the world. 1t was the in
dividual right which stood right in the
way of perfectly obvious public i'm
provement. 1t was an exagseration OF
individualism against collectivism. And
these Illustrations abound at every
turn"
