Last Friday afternoon came the
closing event in the Russian warfare
between the two factions living on
the Widick farm, west of town. The
case was that Of the State Of Colorado
VS.. Eva and Pauline Floor, who were
charged by Fred Lind with having
beaten and whipped his wife. The
case was conducted by Deputy Dis
trict Attorney Daniels, aud was tried
in Justice Stewards court. Nine
witnesses were examined and the
Attorney gave the casea careful slft-
ing. 1t was clearly case In which
there were no grounds for prosecution
and the court found the defendants
not guilty aud discharged them. At
the conclusion of the trial, Mr.. Daniels
gave the members Of the colony IA
forcible lecture explaining how they
should settle their troubles without
taking the law into their own hands
and resorting to blows. He promised
to be on hand the next time trouble
comes up, and will see that all parties
concerned are severely punished. IL
is now hoped that sweet peace will
reign in Little Russia, and no more
lighting occur.

That dress is a part OF the girl herself.
1t stands for her heart, her brain, her

of happy usefulness.
None who observe, even casually. can
fail to perceive the growing restlessness
among the women of the great cities

appreciates her possible influence in

shifts with every tide of passion and

Flowers, which to the Japanese mind
suggest everything that is poetical and
beautiful, should never be massed in
reckless profusion and confusion. If we
would only try to follow q few of their
ideals in this respect, we would find it
possible to have flowers in our rooms
at almost every season of the year
There is hardly household and GER
tainly very few women who could not
manage to save little to purchase 4
few blossoms at the END Of the week,
which, if carefully looked after and
given their daily bath of fresh water,
and nightly placed where a current of
fresh air can reach them, will last an
astonishing number of days. One or
two carnations of the many beautiful
varieties which are now In the market,
if placed in vase which shows their
long, graceful stems and pale silver
green foliage to advantage, make not
only a delightful bit of color in the
room, but their crisp and refreshing
odor Is agreeable to both guest and
hostess. and the little touch of refine
ment given by these few flowers makes
the atmosphere of the house distinctly
different.

Women and Wealth.

We are apt to envy the wives of rich
men. But the envy ought to be on the
other side-and is. The unhappiest,
most restless women in this land are
the idle wives and daughters of the
rich. 1t is true they have fine houses,
carriages and automobiles, fine dresses,
magnificent jewels, stately calls upon
one another, grand dinners brilliant
receptions, and all that. But it is all
a veneer. 1t is merely a mahogany
finish upon a base of ordinary, COM
mon timber 1t is not happiness, but
only pretense of it-an extravagant
attempt at imitation of it.
The great mass of women without
wealth, who work in their homes, rear
their. children themselves, cook the
meals, mend the clothing and do the
thousand and one amending tasks of
the busy housewife, need not envy the
glistening butterflies of fashion. The
happiest women i'm the world are the
Woodworking ones. Not oyertaxed
drudges, whose lives are necessarily
miserable. but the women whose time
and minds and hands are ever occu-
pied in making the home happier and
life for those about them sweeter.
To put a fine dress on a girl accus-
toned to nothing else since birth is to
give no more real enjoyment to her
than would be given to a doll by the

Sometimes the simplest little aids
will make II marked difference in a
wCman's appearance. For instance, one
whose hair is unmanageable Will find
that by applying a mixture of one tea
spoonful of glycerin to five times as
much water to loose ends of tresses
these short strands stay neatly in place,
says the New York Evening Telegram.
In putting on the mixture it should be
well shaken and then applied To- the
hair with a soft brush just before the
dressing.
The coiffure is then done 10 IN the
usual way, and the hair should lie in
place without having Il sticky or oily
look.
When short hairs are obstinate the
best method of training is to put them
on curriers'. Afterwards they should be
combed out until soft and fluffy.
If soft curriers' are used they may be
scented with perfume, so that they will
impart To the hair delicate fragrance
after contact Of hours.
There may be few drops of any per-
fume put into the glycerin and water
solution, but the greatest care should
be taken not to have the effect strong,

SpoiIed Their Walfxinn.

In her memoirs Nine de Bolgne
gives some interesting glimpses of Eng
lish social life. For instance, she
writes:
"In 1916 no young English lady ven
tured TO waltz. The Duke OF Devon
shire returned from tour In Germany
and observed one evening at a large
ball that woman was never seen to
better advantage than when waltzing
| do not know whether he was anx-
lous to play a trick. but he repeated
this assertion several times. 1t was
passed from mouth TO mouth, and at
the next ball all the young ladies were
Waiting. The duke admired them
greatly, said that il was delightful and
gave proper animation to n ball. He
then added carelessly that he, at any
rate. had decided never to marry a
lady who waltZed. 1t was to the
Duchess of Richmond and at Carlton
House that he saw fit TO make this
revelation. The poor duchess, the most
clumsy of matchmaking mammals, near
ly fell off her chair with horror She
repeated the statement TO her neigh
bors, who passed il on, and consterna-
ton spread from seat TO seat. The
young ladies continued to waltz with
clear consciences. The old ladies were
furious. but the unfortunate dance was
concluded. Before the end of the even
ing the good Duchess of Richmond
was able to announce that her daiIgh.
ters felt an objection to valtzing
which no persuasion of hers could ever
overcome. Some few girls Of more in
dependence continued 30 waltz, but the
majority gave it up"
