Thirteen thousand one hundred and
thirty.six more boys than girls attend

Ing to n report issued by State Super

The figures on attendance for 1909 are.
boys. 50i.651; girls. 49i.5l5. The rec.

OF boys In schools has ranged from
s,673 In 1900 to 1886 this year. The
lowest figure was In 1903. when the ex.
cess was only 4.96S. These statistics
are considered surprising because Of
the impression that more girls than
boys attend the public schools.

WHEN SHORTENING A SKIRT.
Should Always Be Done from the Bot.
tom-Two Methods That Are
Recommended.

To shorten a skirt do so from the
bottom, either by making tucks or cut
ting of the number of inches from
the ground to make it the desired
length. When a skirt is to be length
ened, do not attempt to piece 1t at the
top, One way to lengthen the skirt Is
to turn 1t off evenly from the floor,
easur the difference between the
length desired and that which the
skirt has after 1t Is trimmed evenly.
Cut a piece of material twice the num-
Der of inches in width required to
male the Ges ircd length, and as many
inches around as the skirt measures.
Allow One-half inch on all seams. Join
this extra piece to the skirt proper,
with the seam on the right side. Press
1t fiat with the edge down. Turn the
added piece up on the right side.
Measure from the waist line down the
length of the skirt, and turn the bal
ance of the piece up on the right side.
Fold in half an inch at the edge, and
basic the edge over the joining. Stitch
a double row of stitching, sewing on
the applied hem, M at the extreme
edge and the other about one-quarter
of an inch from it. Press this fiat,
and you have a trimming as well as
an added length.

CoIoring Canvas Shoes.

The matching" idea is so strong
just now that girls may like to know
that white canvas shoes may be col
ored to match any costume. The pro.
cess of dyeing will shrink the shoes,
but they may be successfully painted
with good water.color paint.
Mount the shoes on trees. II you
do not own shoe-trees, stun the shoes
evenly with tissue paper. Then ap-
ply the paint with a good-sized bristle
brush or a sponge.
Care should be taken to prepare
sufficient paint before commencing the
painting; the canvas being very alb.
sorbent, you will need a generous
amount. AS an even tint depends up
on expeditions work, you can readily
see the disadvantage of having to
stop in the midst of the operation to
mix more paint.

PLAITINGS RETURN TO FAVOR.
Advent Of Pussy Dresses Of a Former
Period Are Responsible for
Revival.

The tiny knife plaitings only an
inch In width are again coming to
the front with the revival of the fussy
dresses of the 1880 period. They be-
long to the era of the little roses, mar
row frfnges and puffs. The selvedge
of chiffon cloth cut off and sent to the
plaiter's or else done with patience at
home will save the whole hemming
process. The French also double chif-
fon before it is plated, to avoid hem.
ming. The selvedge of some silks may
be used in the same way, and whep
the band of a different color along the
edge happens to be in harmony or in
good contrast 1t has even been chosen
as a decoration for the dress, and al.
lowed to 60 into the frill. Tiny knife
p%laitings are made of lace insertions
because the straight edge forms a
more even line than the scallop of
lace. When insertions are used for
frills, whether gathered or plated,
they are felled to the gown so that the
pattern may not be wasted In a seam.
Taffeta ribbon. too, is frequently con.
verified into knife plaitings.

ment that the mobilization of rein

But his declaration is taken with a
grain of salt" as the government Is
seeking TO allay the anger OF the peo.
pie that arises not only out of the
unpopularity of the war, but also from
the charges that the government was
wholly %unproparcd for the wal that is
precipitated.
Gen. Marina, who is making a gel-
liant defense against the tribesmcn be-
sieging Melilla, wired he expected a
furious attack any moment. There

TO have seriously affected the morale

Hates to Let Cash Go.

Jefferson City.-Governor Hadley
and State Auditor Gordon have agreed
on a system of paying state moneys
to educational and eleemosynary in.
situations. Heretofore state institu-
tons would draw the money appro.
priated to suit their conveniences, but
under the new agreement they can
draw only onc.eighth of their money
each quarter. So they must arrange
their disbursements to suit this rule.

Pay for Prison Labor Increased.

Jefferson City.-The state board OF
prison inspectors decided that &C
cents a day for the labor Of able
bodied convicts in fireproof shops fur.
nished free by the state, rs well as
power for all necessary machinery, ia
not sufficient, and accordingly an
order was adopted fixing the future
price at 70 cents a day. This Is an
increase of Is cents per man per day.
The bulk Of the contracts will expire
December 81, 1909, SO the time is not
far distant when they must be re-
newed or the contractors leave the
prison.
