forest reserve has proven itself to be
invaluable to the forestry men here
in spying out fires and enabling rang
ers to reach the location of the con-
flagratinns before much damage is
done. The station is at very high
point on IA mountain along the North
Fork river. and the forest guard in
charge has been able tn locate fires 20
and 30 miles distant, his maps and
compass enabling him to place the site
of the fire accurately i'm every ease.

WEARING JET IN ALL COLORS.
Variety of CoIorings for Ornamental

Fashions Dictates.

BLACK jet is very much in evidence

very much declares an enthusiastic
English woman in the Queen. Il am
very tired Of all the cut and blown
glass that masquerades as diamante
work, crystals, precious stones of vari-
Gus sorts, bugles and beads of all de-
scriptions, infinitely preferring, for the
moment at any rate, something quite
Opaque.
BLACK and white Jet need not be the
alpha and omega of the list. In darkish
colors it is most attractive-green of
the laurel or creme de menthe shade,
garnet or ruby for embroidering, red
currant or wine shades of tulle, yellow
like clouded amber-quite fascinating
this last-turquoise, with all the real
gems lack of transparency; brown
think of a brown net frock worked in
brown jet and aluminium. with a dash
of gold over a slip of faint maize char
meusei
Gray jet combined with dull silver
beads and platinum threads would
form charming matt effect stitchery,
biscuit-colored jet, gray green jet, the
color of gooseberry fool, royal blue jet,
purple jet, and to finish up with mole
colored jet, with which one could do so
many charming things thtat / hardly
like to begin suggestions for fear

not to be heavy-need not be confined
to evening wear, but in several cases

ly prove to be old acquaintances. i'm
proved in some way and called by
new titles for novelty's sake. But
then old favorites have proven their
usefulness in a soap-and-water way.
SO it is always good to give them the
preference where garments are to be
much Numbered
As to this, it is absurd to fancy that
any tinted linen, cotton or muslin
texture can be treated like the face
and hands. Some concession to deli
cate coloring must be made, and the
first step toward this is never to let
the little colored garment get too
soiled before washing.
A thick suds of some good white
soap is also better for colored things
than any other. If a strong soap is
rubbed directly upon the garment.
you may expect to see the wild rose
pink or baby blue fly out of the win
dow All tinted garments, except
those bearing the fastest dyes, should
be dried in the shade.
Linen, pique, crash. drilling. pom
gee, cotton suiting and denim are
among the standard textures for
young boys. Sensible dresses for
girls, those for useful morning wear,
play, ETC., are also seen in these ma
terials, some simple white embroidery
or braid taking the place of the hand
some stitching or contrast of color on
the masculine garment.
But the smarter of the little girl
toilets are very dainty IN texture, and
with muslin, dimity and swiss very
appropriate laces give quite elegant
effect. The more elaborate of such
small gowns must, of course, be
cleaned instead of washed when
soiled, but since smart frocks get lit
tie hard wear, and dry cleaning is
much cheaper than formerly, the extra
expense need not be feared.
At all times a wash frock is prefer
able to a more pretentious material
for girls up to six and the same thing
may be said of boys suits for this
age and those up to it.
A delicately figured silk, such as
tiny rosebuds on a white background,
would make a very fetching summer
dress for any little gala occasion. And
here the bertha would be of swiss or
null, trimmed with lace. or perhaps
of solid silk, lace trimmed, and in the
tint of the background.
However, though there is a prefer.
ence for dainty finery where small
girls are concerned, with the bertha
left off and plain elbow sleeves, this
model may do for the simplest coun-
try bingham. The ages given for it
are from eight to fourteen, but six to
sixteen could wear it equally well.

for municipal square dealing in San
Francisco has not languished, as the
cynics and lawbreakers usually count
upon its doing. On the contrary, it has
grown, ans to-day there is no public
action of more dramatic intensity trans
piring on the American political stage

go deeper than when breaking the
ground late, as the soil will have time
to settle firmly back against the bot

capillary connection with the lower

not fear that he will turn up unproduc-
