New Dress Trimmings.

.ATEVER before in the history of
~ Dress trimmings has there
been such a lavish display of
materials, so varied in shape and
detail that it is well-nigh impossi-
bic to go amiss in the matter of
choice.
Tassels, Pendants, Fringes, and
all kinds of Draping Ornaments
are quite the thing. Much color is
evident. Beads and Spangles and
anything with a metallic CLINT in its
compound is correct. The Braids
are very beautiful. The beauty and
oddly Of Buttons is great feature
of the costume.

plantation purposes. The homesteader
has mob added to the value of the land
in any respect, either by his personal
labor or by intelligent supervision of
the work of others. The conditions are
similar to those on the mainland where
homestead entries were received on val
liable timber lands. Merely nominal
residence was established, and when
title was received the land was prompt
ly sold to some large lumber company.
As far as benefit to the commonwealth
was concerned the government might
better have sold the land directly and
converted the proceeds to public uses.
The experience had in these lines IL
Illustrates the fact that lands which are
most valuable for some established and
highly profitable line of industry will
not be actually used as homesteads even
if s6Bdivided and given to applicants.
No way has yet been devised for keep
ing man on his homestead after he
obtains title if he believes that he can
make money more easily by selling his
land to some corporation. TO have a
successful homestead, one which is a
benefit in increasing the prosperity Of
any country, it is necessary to have,
first, man who really desires to own
and cultivate piece of land, and who
has the ability, physical and to Ger
tain extent financial, SO to do; second,
the land open to homestead entry must
be of such quality and so located that
the entryman can raise food for home
consumption and will prefer to live at
home; and, third, the surrounding
conditions of market and transporta-
ton must be such that the products can,
be sold at prices profitable enough to
support his family. If he can make as
good or nearly as good a living by
renting his land he will probably do So
Nothing can keen a homesteader on
his land but the fact that this is, in
his own opinion, the most suitable place
to live, and when the earnings which
he receives from cultivating the soil are
higher than those obtained in any other
way
One Of the difficulties of bringing
about actual demonstrating is that in
herent in distinguishing between the
bona fde settler and the Spectator.
At present the territorial laws do not
limit the number of homesteads that
man can take, with the result that
having secured one homestead the own
er can dispose of it and get another
and another in succession without add
ing to the population of the country.
A somewhat active. sentiment on the
part of the majority of citizens is to
the effect that the preference should
be given to natives. The idea promi-
nent in public discussions when home
steads are mentioned is that the public
lands should be divided up among the
present population.

To Mr.. James Steiner.
Dear Sir: The postals, album and
papers, received, and I thank you very
much for the kindly interest you have
taken. The scenes are exceedingly sat
isfaetory and some seem very familiar,
also, many of the names. The places
most prominent in my memory are the
Catholic cathedral, the Fuller house.
and "Father" Damon g on Chaplain
street, DR.. Hillebrand s, home of P. c.
Jones (and / think he would remember
my father, Captain Jetur R. Rose of
barks Pacific and Trident), and large
frame house on corner of Fort and
Beretania avenue, once the home of
Alfred J. Cartwright, and where we
boarded when we were in port for
short time only. Pictures of these
places would seem very home-like.
Should you be able to locate the house

"Father" Damon or grandson? Please
excuse questions, but it is the only way
to obtain information, and the recalling
of half forgotten scenes and memories,
seems to have brought me more in

several copies of The Friend, which
serves as another link, and few years
