through long gilt or jet buckle in
the front, cascade or fluffy jabot
displaying itself down the front of the
waist. This buckle is so much more
generally becoming than bow of rib
bon, and the certain air of trimness
it imparts to the collar makes it ap-
propriate for wear with tailored gowns

HOUSEHOLD VISIONS.

Soften the skin by applying cloths
wrung out of hot water before using
massage or cream.
When tired and hungry, take cup of
bot soup for quick refreshment rather
than tea or coffee.
To freshen blue serge, sponge it with
blue water and hang it in the air to
dry.
Electric fatirons are used exclusive
ly in many large laundries; their ad-
vantages are apparent. The heat can
always be controlled so as to keep the
iron at the right temperature, thus OBJ
waiting the danger of spelling a finished
dress by smut from an iron heated by

CALIFORNIA AND THE JAPS.

Some crank in the California
legislature has introduced bill thai
discriminates against the sehoo.
rights of the Jap residents in thai
state, and some of the supersensltive
Japs, the foreign papers that would
like to weaken our influence with
that country and the jingo papers
everywhere are going into caniptlons
over the unfriendliness of America
for Japan. The probabilities are
that the bill will never be heard OF
again. Should 1t be pushed 1t
will not become a law. The Japs
we have in this country must be
treated fairly as are other national;-
ties, and, as a rule, they will be.
There is no need or grounds for this
senseless cry of unfairneSs of the
American people towards Japs or
any other foreigner. The great
bulk of the trouble with Japanese
labor is brought about by laberers
from foreign countries. We don't
wish to see this county overrun by
cheap Japanese laborers or by those
of any other country SO long as
there is an American laborer out of
job that really wants one. How
ever, there is a demand in this
county for thousands of laboring
men for work that our American
laboring man does not care to do.
We see no Improperly in letting
foreigners have these jobs. BY the
way, there seems to he a good deal
of temmyrot in this eternal cfy
against admitting foreign labor into
this country. Wkere would We have
been had our forefathers refused to
admit the sturdy German and Irish
laborers years ago!
These same laborers with their
descendants now constitute some of
our best citizenship. Yet there
should be restrictions on admitting
the dependant classes faster than
they can be assimilated into our
citizenship and made good Ameri-
cans
