OLD SUMMIT HOUSE

the old Tip Top house in 1877. In 1884 the old Summit house was de- molished and replaced by cottage for Summit house employees, and the pres ent printing office of Among the Clouds" just destroyed, was built.
 The first ascent of Mount Washing ton is recorded as being in 1642, when Darby Field and two Indians made two ascents in May and July, which was followed by an ascent made in August by two men from Concord. Other ascents were made in succeeding years in the early part of the eighteenth century, but the first scientific expedi- tion was not made until 1916, when Dr. Francis Boott and others braved the clements and made the difficult ascent.
 The first man to guide visitors to the summit of the mountain was Ethan Allen Crawford, grandson of EleaZer Rosebrook who built the first hotel in the White mountains, near the site of the present Fabyan house. It was he who opened the first foot path. which he blaZed through the un- broken wilderness to the base and up the rough and craggy side of the mountain to the summit. 1t led over Mount Clinton from the site of the present Crawford house and was re- built in 1S40 as a bridle path.
 In 1923 Ethan Allen Crawford built two stone cabins on Mount Washing ton. the first shelters to be built there, and not until 1852 was the first Sum init house built by J. s. Hall, Lucius NJ. Rosebrook and Nathan R. Perkins. It was opened on July 2S of that year, and provided shelter for a number of guests By this time the White noun tains had attained fame as a summer resort, and many summer hotels had been built on the east and west sides.
 Benjamin Osgood one of the pioneer guides of the mountains, who died last year at the age of SS made the first winter ascent of Mount Washington in 1858, accompanied by Deputy Sher. if Hartshorne of Gorham
 In 1861 the late George Lane of Twin mountain and Fabyan drove the first coach to the summit, an eight. horse hitch with a great coach.
 The building of the Mount Washing ton railway was begun in 1866 and completed in 1869, which was the year of the visit of Gen. Grant to the sum. nit.

BUILDING ON MT. WASHINGTON
 DESTROYED BY FIRE.
Famous Men Had Visited 1t Durino It's Thirty-Five Years of Hospitabe Shelter and 1t Will Probably
 Be Rebuilt

The old Summit house on Mount Washington in the White mountains in New Hampshire, which was burned to the ground recently and which will un- doubtedly be rebuilt as speedily as possible, was structure around which much interesting history clus- ters. For 35 years it had offered it's hospitality and shelter to the summer tourist, having been built a few years after the railway was extended to the top of the mountain. and just after the government had established weather bureau station there The Summit house was the mecca of mountain climbers, and was brought into promi hence more perhaps through the spec tacular climb to the clouds" and motor races to the summit than in any other fashion. Among the events at the summit were the visits of Gen. Grant, in 1862 the visit of President Hayes, in 1877; that of Lord Chief Justice Coleridge, in 1883. and the visit of Gov. Johnston and party of Alabama, in 1900. Grover Cleveland went to the summit couple of years ago with his family.
 There were always many attractive young people connected with the hotel, usually school teachers and college youths and girls, who were anxious to spend their vacation in earning money, and who found summer on the highest mountain top in the east an interesting experience.
 Work was begun early In the 7O's on the Summit house, which has just burned, and it was opened in July. 1873, with great eclat. The hotel had accommodation for over 200 persons, and was two stories in height
 regular train service from Fab vans and Breton Woods had been established to the summit, with two trains daily, and no White mountain visitor who had not spent night on the summit was thought to have real ly seen the sights of the White noun tains.

UNIQUE METHOD OF TEACHING
 DUTIES OF CITIZENSHIP.
Remarkable Results Obtained by the Organization of School Repub- lies in Public Schools
 of the East.

The school republic is a movement started by Wilson l.. Gill, a we'll known worker in the field of educa- tion for the purpose of giving chil- dren their first lessons in citizenship. The movement has grown in the United States and the United States government, observing the good ac- complished among American school children, carried the method into all the schools of Cuba. Within the last year some schools in every state of the union have taken up the method Commissioners of education from sev- eral nations, in session in New York city, in April, 1908, signed articles of agreement founding the Children's ln- ternational state to add interest and strength to this cause of healthful, loyal citizenship in every country. Children in American schools be- gan signing the pledge of information al citizenship on May Is, 1908.
 Mir Gill is enthusiastic over the de- velopment of his idea, and declares that he believes there never was a movement which was making so powerfully for the betterment of child life throughout the world as the school republic And while it is effective, it is so simple so practical, so accepta- ble to young people, so helpful to those who have the care of children. and so full of reasonable hope that it is surely winning it's way into the schools of the country
 Every thinking, observing, true patriot" declared Mir Gill, in discuss ing his plan, has hoped that some way might be found by which men who take the initiative in business affairs could be induced to attend primary meetings, vote at local elections and take their turn in serving on Juries This has seemed hopeless since every time the educated part of the people has been aroused to action by some extraordinary crisis it has immediate ly sunk back into it's old state of apathy. and boss rule has again as serted itself undisturbed, and public money, health and life have been wasted as before.

STRIPES AND POLKA DOTS.
Methods of Trimming That Will Make Any Simple Frock Ornamental.

One of the pretty ways of making simple frock ornamental is trim ming it with an opposite design in the same coloring.
 To be explicit, polka dots are in fashion and frocks in this design are trimmed with wide bias bands of plaid or striped material in the same color.
 A striped frock is trimmed with a wide straight band of polka dot mate rial.
 plain surface is trimmed with both the polka dot and the striped fabric, and when the combination is well done it does not really look like a patchwork quilt
 It can even be carried out in yokes and stocks, as nets in fashionable col ors now come with tiny polka dot of white. It is usually in a small open circle instead of real polka dot, but It gives the same effect.
 These nets are put in tiny tucks and used instead of lace, embroidery or muslin.

Hosiery Decorations.

Since the fad for decoration has be- come so widespread the girl with a talent for fashioning flowers and bow knots with her needle is decorating the fronts of her hosiery from toe to ankle with quaint designs. These are of natural flower tints on the delicate hosiery worn with evening gowns and in self tints for those matching street costumes. Sometimes lace butter. flies and bow knots are used as in serts, first being appliqued upon the webbing which is then cut away from the underside. Faded hosiery of a first-class quality may be successfully home-dyed, and thrifty young wom. en overloaded with passe evening hos iery may easily transform it into a sort suitable for street wear by dyeing it tan. taupe, brown or blue.

LITTLE ERRORS THAT WORRY.
How Some of Them May Be Avoided
 by the Home Dressmaker.

It is usually the little errors in dressmaking that are the most fri. tating and annoying to the woman who does her own dressmaking. The unlined waist is one of the hardest garments to fit correctly. When wrinkles come at the base of the arm. hole, the trouble usually is that the armhole has been made too small. If it is, do not cut it out. but simply snip it with the point of the scissors to see if the wrinkles are removed. If the wrinkles are not removed, then trim the armhole
 If the waist wrinkles at the base of the collar line in the back, see if your belt is in the proper place exactly at the waist line and that the line from the center back of the belt is plumb. If you are sure that the belt is cor rectly placed, then snip the collar with the point of the scissors at each side of the center back of the collar and wrinkles in all probability will be removed

PIacinu a Couch.

touches are now so much used in sitting rooms that any arrangement that has even spice of novelty should be welcomed So try putting the couch in the corner of the room so that it touches the wall at one end ana behind it. At the other end, with us back against the divan, stand a oookcase, which is a complete screen to the couch. The latter piece fronts out toward the room, so that any one entering sees the bookcase at once, ana on going farther into the room 'he couch comes into view.

Ribbons Must Match.

Debutantes-to-b are most particular about their ribbon accessories, and gorgeous, indeed, are some of the sashes, coiffures and blouse bows mo- ticed at the weekend society festivi- ties to which members of the younger generation are sometimes admitted. With her Dutch-necked dinner frock of girlish white Swiss or point d'esprit the jeune file wears lowered sash tied trimly about her slender waist and arranged at the back in butterfly loops, two of which may be drawn half way to the shoulders. The hair bow and sleeve rosettes may be of softest chiffon satin, matching the grounding of the sash. but her opera glass bag is preferably of the figured sash ribbon lined to match its satin bordering.

AN HONEST DOCTOR

 A few months ago came here in . wretched condition. Exposure and dampness had ruined my once robust health. I had catarrhal affections of the bronchial tubes, and for time there was doubt as to my recovery.
 "My good honest old doctor advised me to take Peruna, which did and in 8 short time my health began to inn prove very rapidly, the bronchial trouble gradually disappeared, and in three months my health was fully re- stored.

A PLAY REPUBLIC

selves as natural enemies, but their families. When the boys and girls, as school citizens, made laws and en- forced them in the interest of order and good fellowship the fighting among the young people ceased at once. and the conditions among the older people gradually improved.
 Every person on becoming inter- ested in the school republic asks: How many are there?' That question can not be answered directly, for the method is free, much has been pub- lished about it, and apparently, thousands of teachers have adopted it, many intelligently, some not so intelligently, and, of course, many with success, and some have failed partly and others totally, because the few and simple principles involved are not always understood or the motive is mistaken. In New York city in 1907 Supt. Jasper prohibited the school city, but the board of education immedi- ately investigated and authorized every principal who might wish to adopt the method to do so, and MT. Jasper co-operated with me most heartily. On my invitation a few principals took it up with gratifying results"

Miles in company with some school
girls while returning home one even
ing. He escorted her home and a
friendship arose between the two, cul>
minating in a compact to run away
and get married. The extreme youth

intentions to her parents, but the
story was told to another girl friend,
who assisted the couple in making
their escape by having the girl come
to her house and then going from
there to the depot.

Quainted with the town and left the
girl at the Rock Island depot while
