Braiqing seems to be q, if not the
favorite decoration for a shirt waist
or suit for this summer. 1t will never
surpass solid or French embroidery but
because of the ease and quickncss with
which it can be applied, it appeals to
the busy woman or one who wishC for
a pretty, embroidered gown without
having to spend too much time upon
it. Lunt & Brann have the patterns
for stamping waists, suits, hats, coats,
collars and cuffs etc.

PROF. LUTHER BURBANk'S TRI.
UMP.

Luther Burbank, who has illumined
the world with floral sunshine and
made men glad because of the fruits
and vegetables he has coaXed from
the earth with scientific genius and
that have spread his name and fame
throughout the nations is about to
mercialize his greatest triumph"
What the California plant wonder
worker proposes to do seems to many
impossible, but viewed in the light of
his mast achievements, almost any
thing may be expected from this Gre
alive king of the farm and garden of
Santa Rosa. He proposes to feed man
and beast on cactus plants. Think OF
the agony an animal must suffer in
biting into the steel-like, razoredged,
needle-pointed thorns of a healthy
Arizona sand desert cactus. Imagine
your faithful Jersey COW chewing into
a cud a mess of freshly picked, spine
covered cacti without kicking over
the milk pail and breaking down the
pasture fence.
But Danish the shivers! Mr.. Bur-
bank thought it all ove a long time

vince you Of the ge~nuineness Of the
article.
Not only does the bee excel as an
artisan, but also as a chemist. Its
honey stomach Is one of the most deli.
ate chemical laboratories in the world.
Here the nectar of the flowers is trans.
formed from a highly diluted sweet,
susceptible Of speedy fermentation,
into the most perfect food product
known. This chemical change, In
verting the sugar. according to the
chemists phrase, Is undoubtedly &C.
cOmplished in the laboratory Of the
bee during its short fight from the
field to the hive. This chemical re.
action is so delicate that no laboratory
aside from that Of the bee can sue
c~essfully accomplish it.
Consider the queen bee, the sole
and undisputed monarch Of her en-
pire. Endowed with powers super
human, she governs without exercising
visible authority, rules without coer
cion. Her subjects go about their
tasks with that cheerful zeal which
can only accompany toll fully recon-
pensed, and offer to men, torn into
factions Of %contending opinion, an ideal
social state, where every member of
the community is a toiler and all are
prosperous, peaceful and content.
The queen bee is sole mother of
the race. All life from the egg,' that
great biological axiom, is exemplified
in the hive. The queen mother pass
ing rapidly from comb to comb. places
a single egg In each selected cell,
laying the i~nconceivable number Of
5000 to 1000 n "a hours. This labor
represents in a single day the expen.
diture of physical substance equal to
two and one-half times the weight of
her own body Consequently she does
not even feed herself, being always
accompanied by a devoted group of
maids of honor, worker bees, whose
Office is to bring in p%rofusion the
choicest predigested food to their ruler.
Not the least of the wonderful powers
of the queen is that Of pre-determining
the sex of the offspring which shall
result from eggs precisely alike under
the microscope, but which, in turn,
may eventuate in a worker, drone or
queen, as the mother may elect"

ago, and now he is about prepared to
flood the market of the world with a
spineless, thornless, fruit bearing, nu-
tritious cactus that will prove a diet
airy boon to mankind and will tickle
the palates of pigs, cattle, sheep and
horses.
Our ancestors never dreamed of the
wireless telegraph or the horseless
carriage, but both are here. We of
the present generation never dreamed
of the thornless cactus, but it's here.
The scientific magic of Luther Bur
bank developed it and will produce it
as a commodity.
This civilizing of the savage desert
plant is the result of a long expert
mentation by Mr.. Burbank at Santa
Rosa, and his success in the under
taking, which he regards as his
greatest triumph" will make foreign
missionaries turn green with envy. If
they only had a Burbank to reorgan-

HANDSOME PROFITS REALIZED

Grand Junction inaugurated it's
first charity ball last night and that
1t was q success that will be recalled
by everyone fortunate enough to have
been in attendance in the years to
come, when other charity balls will
have succeeded 1t, is unquestionable.
There was a spirit prevalent that
was q high satisfaction to the pro-
moters of the event. If there was
harsh or discordant note in the breast
of anyone, 1t was not apparent. There
was sense of pleasure given the
mind of everyone that, although they
were present for the enjoyment that
might be obtained from the fleeting
hours of the event that they were
also contributing to the welfare and
happiness of the less fortunate of
their fellow creatures. Selfishness
was entirely at a discount throughout
the entire evening and altogether 1t
was one of the rarest social functions
for actual and unaffected pleasure in
the history of social entertainments in
this city.
The ball last night was not in
tended as a strictly social event, al
though there were many very beau
tiful garments worn by the ladies and
1t might perhaps be considered as one
of the events in the future which
will be regarded. as it is in all other
cities as the society function of the
mid-winter season.
The ball was held under the aus
pices of the directorate of ST. Mat
thew's hospital and to their untiring
efforts may be given the whole credit
