Frequently the rules laid down for
the stout woman apply to the older
woman. Slenderness is easier to deal
with. 1t is not necessary to design
special clothes for these ladies in
question. for there are few fashions
which. If chosen with good judgment
and good taste. are not permissible
for them. The secret lies in exercis-
ing the knowledge of suitability. OF
becomingness, of irreproachable good
taste
Clothes should, Of course. be digni-
fed, and essentially girlish styles are
to be avoided. The bolero. for in

ment for an older woman. Neither is
the shirtwaist and skirt of contrast
ing color particularly advisable.
Many women retain to the end of
their lives a perfectly balanced and
well-rounded figure. and such one
may defy these precautions.
Colors should be chosen with wis
dom. Now,-it is quite unnecessary for
the woman out Of her first youth to
appropriate black as the only suit

may wear colors they never dreamed
of wearing in their first youth. There
are certain types of women-with red

charming with gray hair. and gray

it is good at all 1t is like "the little
girl with the curl of nursery rhyme
fame. Amethyst also answers to this
latter rule.
Clothes should be graceful. The
short walking skirt is inappropriate
for an older woman. Long lines. sup
pie fabrics. soft creamy laces-every-
thing soft. nothing harsh. These are
the points to remember.
And then. you know, everything de-
ponds upon the type of woman.
Some women would look perfectly abb

persons. although their years might
warrant the style. Other women
would look equally ridiculous in cos
tunes suitable for the young matron-

that all women are young and
that all women are beautiful. Upon
first Thought this may seem unreason-
able and discouraging. but upon sec
ond thought we must admit that it Is
wise viewpoint, for, after all. it is
far better to make a pretty gown
which may be successfully worn by
a woman of good looks or by her less
attractive sister than to present an
ugly creation which will neither do
the best by the hOmely woman nor do
justice to her fairer sister.
The French people steer very clev-

a combination of net. hand embroid-
cry and lace, and they are finished at
the hand with a rufle of net.
There is no doubt that these net waists
will prove a welcome addition to the
woman's wardrobe. In the first place
the net, in it's various shades. lends itself
prettily to almost any colored suit, and
it falls into pretty outlines. Further
more, the waists are extremely easy
to keep clean and neat, as they do
not require even pressing when wash
ed, nor do they need very much wash
;ng-for the net does not collect the
dirt so easily as many other ma
terials. There is something dressy in
q net waist, and any one owning two
pretty blouses of net may feel that
she is prepared for the winter months
if not for warmth. at least for
beauty

The second waist is also OF net.
while bauds of cluny insertion give
length to the figure. On each side OF

finishes the sleeves. 1t is very ef-
fective waist, and is made in style

A smart model for sheer linen waist
is that with the tiny yoke of pin-tucked

ducive to a short-Waisted effect, but it

The square bag of hand-carved leather
is very effective. and its cost proves
that it is extremely desirable. 1t is not
very large, but it easily holds the little
things that most women carry.
The bag of cretonne is quite the incest

1t is said that net waists cannot fail
to be extremely popular to wear with
semi-dressy suits for matinees and call
ing. and the pictures shown today are
suggestions for the making Of these net
blouses.
The first blouse is of plain tucked net.
Right here be it said that the difference
between Partisan net blOuses and the
blouses made in this country is that the
tuckng done abroad is by hand. while
in this country it is all machine work.

and surely more desirable. that the tucks
be made by hand with a plain thread
or heavy floss. The tie worn with the
first blouse is of net with Irish lace
ends, while the same lace is used round
the wrists Of the very long tucked
sleeves.

These corselet skirts WI not be quite

the reign of the pure empire. They
will be partly fitted to the figure from

Only Two 6attIeships.

Washington.-By vote of thirteen
to five, one member absent and not
voting, the house committee on naval
affairs Monday rejected the Presidents
urgent recommendation that Congress
at this session authorize the building
Of four battleships at total cost of
$38.000,000, and by unanimous vote
there was included in the navy appro-
priation bill an authorization for the
construction Of two. to cost $1,000. 900
each, and to be of the Delaware type.
These representatives voted in ac-
cordance with the Presidents recon-
mendations: Lilly of Connecticut,
(Rep); Thomas, Ohio, Rep); Myer,
Louisiana. Dem); Talbot. Maryland
(Dem.), and Hobson, Alabama, (Dem.)
Representative Hobson announced
after the committee meeting that he
intended to make minority report
recommending authorization for four
battleships.

Mile-a-Minute Balloon.

Washington.-Peter Cooper Hewitt
OF New York. electrical engineer and
inventor of the hydro-plane skimming
boat. intends to build a dirigible bal
loon for the government which will be
more powerful as a fighting machine
than anything now under considera-
tion by the War Department.
He will build the balloon at his own
expense, the machine to be bought by
the government If satisfactory.
Mr.. Hewitt will be aided in his work
by Miller Reese Hutchinson. Both
have received encouragement from
President Roosevelt and the War De-
partment.
The dirigible Mr. Hewitt expects to
build will be worth from $4,000 to
100000, and will probably make a
speed of sixty miles an hour. Plans
submitted to the signal corps by Mr..
Hewitt have been approved by dirigible
experts.
His proposal is especially welcome
to the signal corps, because no appro-
priation for dirigibles will be made by
Congress this year.

Land Claims and Grazing Permits.

Washington.-Chief Forester Pin
chot In his annual report says that al.
though lands within national forests
are withdrawn from all forms Of entry
or filing except under the mining laws
and the agricultural settlement act OF
June II, 1906. many claims are valid
because initiated prior to the creation
of the national forests All alleged
claims must be examined and reported
upon in order that the commissioner
OF the General Land Office may be in
formed II there appears to be any rea-
son why patent should not issue

neous claims we're transmitted to the
General Land Office for fnal action:
200 mining. 100 homestead, 10 desert
land and 20 timber and stone claims
were held for further report and 215

The General Land Office ordered 81
hearings on recommendations OF the
forest service that claims be rejected
The average number Of cattle and
horses grazed under each permit was
81 head and the average number Of
sheep 1,74S. This shows conclusively,
says the report, that the small owners
have preference in the use Of the ma.
tional forest ranges.
The total receipts on account OF the
above permits we're $S57,S57S3.
Only eight per cent Of the applicants
failed to pay the grazing fees and to ac-
cept the permits applied for, and with
out doubt many OF these will accept
their permits before the close OF the
season. This is exactly the same per-
centage as last year.

Shot BY Hoid-Up.

Pueblo.-In the boldest holdup that
ever occurred in this city, Joe Russ.
young Austrian, was shot dead and
six of his countrymen routed by a
lone highwayman at ten O'Clock Sun
day night.
The holdup, with its fatal results, Is
rendered all the more tragic by the
fact that Russ, after long, hard labor,
had Just succeeded in laying by suffi.
cient funds to take him back to his
young wife and child in the old coun.
try and that he had already written
them that he would leave for home
next week.
The affair occurred under the bridge
across Santa Fe street and near the
Eiler smelter. The Austrians were re-
turning home from town when the
bandit stepped out Of the shadow and
ordered them. Hold up your hands!"
Instead Of complying with his request
or rushing upon him. the seven, all OF
whom are big, stalwart smelter work
ers, frightened by the bandits gun,

Seeing that his commands were not
obey ed, the man shot-once, some OF
the Austrans say; five times, others
affirm. One Of the bullets struck Russ
in the back. passing through his heart
and killing him Instantly The high.
wayman escaped.

My Dear Boys and Girls:-I have
just completed the crop report of your

it shows progress. l regret to say that
some of our members have not yet
threshed, and l must send this letter
without their report being completed.
Some yet to report. will win prize,
which l shall take pleasure In sending
to them as soon as they send me the
pound sample of the threshed grain
and the total number Of pounds
threshed from their measured acre
of grain.
The total number OF points for each
competitor was determined on the
same basis as last year. Multiplied
the weight of grain in the hundred
head sample by 25, to which was
added the weight of 1000 kernels
multiplied by %. The grade or quail
ity was determined on basis Of 1000
points for perfect grade. The yield
of pounds per acre gave the number
of points for the competitor. Adding
the poinfs won by the 100 head sam
pie. the quality grade and points won
by yield per acre, we have the total
number of points won by the competi-
tor with each particular grain.
The following are the winners as far
as the report can now be made:
