No Place for Fluffy RuffIes=-NOt necessary
TO be GrinIy Plain Eifher--Stand or
Fall by the Tailored Suit--By Her Hat
is the Business Woman Judged.

"Out of the "a hours" maintains
dear old Peter in Hopkinson Smiths
charming story, "one should rest
eight, play eight and work eight" The
business woman likes play and needs
rest, but she must work her quota OF
hours also. In addition to the, home
woman's wardrobe for rest and play,
the business girl must provide an en-
tirely separate outfit for work.
The home woman may wear out
her old things around the house" too,
but where is the business woman to
wear out her partly passe frocks and
blouses? At the office? Alas, so many
of them did that it was in no arbitrary
spirit of tyranny, but in sheer self
defense that the department stores IN
sisted on a black uniform for their
women clerks. For the dazzling ar
ray of summer Silks peekaboo shirt
waists and cotton Jumpers which
after a summer of strenuous Sundays
served through a winter of discomfort
behind the counters was truly appall-
ing
No, the business woman must be
spic and span. The very minute a
tiny tear comes in a shirtwaist or a
frayed edge shows on sleeve or skirt
hem that garment must be passed on
to the chambermaid. The business
woman has no time to get the good"
of even carefully mended finery at
home, and if she be wise little bust
ness woman, no matter what sacrifices
she makes in other directions, ner Of
flee costume will be iTreproachable to
the very last detail of nicely.
THE WELL-CUT TAILORED SUIT
ESSENTIAL.
Whatever else the business woman
does without she will have at least
one faultless tailored coat and skirt
suit. In 1t she will have the most OF
snap and smartness that her purse
will afford. She will choose a color Of
which she will not tire in the long
stretch of weeks through which it mus
do duty. She will have it so conser
vatiVe in style that at the end of Z
year It will not proclaim abroad the
date of It's origin. Above all, she viii
select a fabric that will stand the weal
and tear and wettings; "A firmly WOW

women; but even they, for whom the
shirtwaist is impossible,
confine themselves to the simple per-
lection of frocks which impress rath-
er by richness of texture and adher-
ence to little details of smartness than
by conspicuous elegance.
THE BUSINESS-DINNER DRESS.
There is the frock, also, that every
business woman likes to have ready
for the occasions when she must go
directly from her Office to restaurant
dinner or the theater.
Such frock is charmingly illus
trated in the one-tone costume of
taupe gray cloth. The lines are strik-
ingly simple, the only trimming be-
ing the braiding of soutache which is
applied not only on the cloth of the
gown, but also on the gray chiffon
which, over white lining, forms yoke
and sleeves.
FURS MAY BE AS CHOICE AS ONE
PLEASES.
One luxury in which the business
women may revel with perfect taste
is the set of handsome furs. Even
the most uncompromisingly plain tall
ored suit is lifted to elegance by a
rich muff and collar of fur, and it is
economy to start out by buying good
furs-the very best one can afford.
Conventional shapes remain in fashion
through many seasons, and money
spent in furs is we'll invested for the
business woman who wants to be at
tractively, as we'll as correctly, garb-
ed.
THE BUSINESS HAT MUST BE
PRACTICAL.
Il want a small hat" insisted a
business woman, looking hopelessly
about among a collection of big mo-
dels; and she further argued with the
} protesting milliner: rive rlsked put
ting out enough eyes In crowded ele-
yators, I've had my nose scraped by

lars. With such coat and the pro-
per compliments Of high-laced boots,
rubbers, stout umbrella and a big veil
which can be wound over hat and hair
the plucky little business woman need
have no terror of a strenuous wrestle
with the elements.

AN ALGARoBA BEAN MILL.

A mill to grind algaroba beans has
been invented by G. w. Renear OF
Honolulu. 1t was tried yesterday and
worked we'll in presence of Director
Wilcox and Mr.. Krauss of the Hawaii
Experiment Station with others. The
mill has a capacity of between three
and four tons a day. Mr.. Renear is
working on a dryer to go with the
mill. An excellent fodder is produced
by grinding the beans. A cattleman
here has $4,000 bags of beans, going
60 bags to the ton, and a plantation
on Kauai 10000 bags stored up.

neat, washable sbirtwaists is the bust
ness woman's chiffonier. she will have
also at least one emergency blouse.
That morning will inevitably dawn
when the alarm clock will fail to ring
and in the frantic furry of dressing
there will not be a minute to spare
for inserting cuff links, studs and
shields in the fresh waist. "Therell
come time some day." too when the
laundress will fail to arrive with
supply of clean waists. Then, no, for
the little emergency blouse! The
blouse always ready; made Of silk
that keeps presentable without laun-
dering; of dark color that shows no
telltale soil traces.
And that emergency blouse which
the canny business woman keeps al
ways ready with shields, buttons and
neckties in place, will save many a
day from a bad beginning.
! The satin blouse this year has the
high favor of Madame Mode, and if ii
is made of good satin, soft in texture
and not too lustrous, the simple CIT
satin blouse will prove not only a
smart addition to the business wo-
mans outfit, but an ideal emergency
standby.
The plaid silk blouses also are
cheerful and attractive for Office wear
Pipings and pleatings of plain silk
modish little neckties and gilt buttons
give them quite a festive air, with
out in the least putting them under
the ban OF "dressiness," which is, o
course, the worst of taste for the bust

The Spanish Mine.

Last Sunday the following were
visitors at the Spanish Mine in Water
Canyon with Henry Wolf, S. W. Davis
and Hy. Christensen's son; Harry
Davis, John T. Morgan, Andrew Jen-
sen, Ralph Morgan, Elmer Morgan and
Eph. Rowe.
The trip was long and dry one, and
the first thing we took after reaching
camp was nice cool drink of water,
which was served in new wash basin.
Then the mine was visited by the bunch
led by Sam Davis, during which time
dinner was being prepared by Mr.. Wolf
and Mr.. Christensen and consisted OF
fresh cooked bread, beef steak, break
fast bacon, fried eggs, rice pudding,
tea and water.
After dinner the party was led to the
mine by Mr.. Wolf, who explained the
ms and outs, and ups and downs of
mining and pointed out the different
formations passed through, and every
thing looked quite encouraging to those
present, most of whom are stockholders.

Letter From Alma Beck.

The following letter has been re-
ceived from Alma Beck, Spanish
Fork young man who is now in the
Philippines. The letter is just our size
exactly right for publication; but o,
dear, IL some Of those 100 per cent hot
air artists" had written it, there would
have been about 2, 900 words, and IL our
support would not justify US in paying
$500 to set it in type, some fellow
might have threatened to stop his paper.
Alma, old boy. you have the right idea
down to gnst's heel; always be brief
but positive and no man can go wrong.
Here is the letter:
Masbate, Sorsogan, P. I. Aug, 2, '08
Dear Mr.. jensen
After having most pleasant trip
from Spanish Fork to the Philippine
Islands, and being assigned to Masbate
in the province of Sorsogan, now find
myself enjoying the climate and the
conditions in the tropics.
We find these natives suffering
greatly from their laziness when in the
school room where they have to do
what we tell them. But they all want
to be educated for clerks or bookkeepers
so that they can sit in an office in their
Sunday clothes all the time. This rule
has few exceptions, and these want
lots of work and lots of servants To do
it. They are very easy going and think
nothing about tomorrow and very little
about today.
Within twenty rods of my house
there are eight "te-endas" or native
stores, and one could buy them all for
$40 and still they all make living from
them.
l am getting along very we'll and like
my position and the conditions o. X.
Respectfully, Alma Beck.
