FOR GIRL GRADUATES.

The ''crisp white muslin frock' is
thing of the past. This spring all
muslin, organdie, swiss, null, batiste,
lawn, or lace Of which a white frock
may now be fashioned must have alb
solutely no touch Of "criSpness"
whatever, and must hang without a
suggestion of flare. Naturally this
edict affects the graduation gown,
and in selecting the material for this
all-important frock this fact must be
borne in mind. Wash fabrics are in-s
finitely more attractive than any 9TH
ers for the graduation dress, though
among the wash fabrics must be in
Guided this year the cotton voiles
which in such an infinite variety of
qualities are the most popular thin
fabrics of the season.
The Commencement gown is with

Just touch all around, with a funny
little fish tail of a train directly in
the center of the back. In one mod
ell in wolfe this train is really part Of
the sash, which falls from the waist
and is caught to the skirt down the
center of the back, giving a panel,
effect although not really let into the

There is a belt of some description
on almost every style Of dress this

LET THE CHILDREN HAVE MORE
KISSING GAMES.

Children need more kissing games,
according to Percival Chubb, pro-
fessor of New York University and
head Of the department Of English
and pageants in the ethical school of
New York.
kissing games as played by chill
dren are harmless" he says. Drop
the handkerchief, pOstOffice, clap in
and clap out and q dozen more games
of the same sort hurt no one. Mind
you, [ don't advise them for the ell
ders, but before the young people
have reached lineage Of Is they are
all right. The old-time play spirit is
gone. The children no longer play
games at parties and their elders play
bridge most of the time. The Sunday
comic papers are among the chief of
tenders against children. In the
schools, for example, we work to de-
velop a certain standard of literary
and esthetic tastes in children. Con-
stantly in school and out of school,
the Sunday supplement- works against
any educative efforts. In place Of
better qualities in the trough Of the
comic sheets children learn smart
ness, vulgarity, monkey tricks and
irreyerence."

VOGUE.

perfumes of Araby'' are no longer
the height of sweetness in the eyes of
women, for it is from the land of the
cherry blossoms that the newest and
daintiest scents now COme-perfumes
so delicate in their sweetness that
they are suggestion rather than a
scent, and with enough individuality
to them to please the most fastidious
of women, who are Wearied of plain
violet and the heavy perfumes from
France, which were in vogue last
year.
There is the Japanese lily perfume,
eXhaling a delicious fragrance remi-
niscent Of quaint Japanese gardens
far away, and lotus flower water,
which is another novelty of the year.
The enticing OdOr of the Japanese
violet, very different from our own
modest flower, yies in popularity
among exclusive women now with
that of the Japanese clover, which is
more pungent and lasting than the
former perfume.
In selecting a perfume it must be
remembered that to make it's delicacy
appreciated soap, sachet, and scent
must all have the same fragrance,
and as little as possible must be
used.
A decided perfume of any kind how
ering over a woman, or leaving
trail Of odor behind her, is not only
bad form, but is repulsive rather than
attractive. A Whit Of fragrance,
suggestion Of flowers rather than any
scent, is the thing to be desired

WOWAN'S PAGE Hs 1o

TRULY do I agree with some OF
our readers as to the letters
you all should write for the
page I've asked you each
week to write, and some of you have
helped quite a good bit; many of
you have had nothing to say. Now
if you want to do away with recipes
and fashions you must write for the
page, all your news and views.
Have you had to suffer from an
nual house cleaning? Nearly every
one has at this season; an uncon-
trolabe desire to change about all
the furniture and curtains, and close
up fire places for the summer. One
good plan that works splendidly is, to
take one room a day and go over it
thoroughly and arrange it as you
wish. By doing 500 you keep the
house from getting in turmoil,
every one in it out of patience, and
unable to find anything in the place
it should be, and yourself from the
invariable nervous headache after
the upheaval of spring cleaning.

When the childrens' rubbers get so

also strengthen the shoe and make it

Effect of Thoughts.
Sick thoughts lead to disease. Many
a man has died of consumption be-
cause he had become convinced that
he had an inherited tendency and
allowed these thoughts to so depress
him that he was an easy prey to the
white destroyer, instead of determine
ing to subdue it by living healthy,
wholesome, happy, outdoor life.
Psychotherapy or the mental treat
ment Of disease is as old as the be-
ginning of medicine. In it's present
methods it is older in Europe than
five years ago with the investigations
Of Charcot and his school.-Womans

A Green Sponge.
Sow a large white sponge with tice,
oats, or wheat; place it for week or
ten days in shallow dish with water
in it; as the sponge absOrbs the mois-

When this takes place suspend the
sponge from the top Of the window
and it will become a living mass of
green, requiring only a little Occa-
sional moistening.-Na Maya

FRUIT NOT HURT.

County horticultural Inspector Tay-
lor spent several days in McElmo can
on this week, making a thorough in
vestigation of the orchards of that
section, returning to Cortez Tuesday.
Mr.. Taylor informs US that, not
withstanding unauthorized reports to
the contrary, but little or no dam
age has been done to the fruit in the
McElmo by the frosts of the past
week. "The apples will be more than
100 per cent of a crop, if no further
damage occurrs," said Mr.. Taylor,
"and what few apple buds that have
been injured are of the crab and very
early varieties, these trees having,
however, sufficient live buds to insure
a full crop. The Elberta peaches were
crop. The Elberta peaches were dam
damaged some but there stillremains
sufficient live buds for a normal crop.
Other varieties of peaches remain un-
touched and are burdened with live
buds. Sweet cherries are all right
while the forward apricots were
caught.
81 have not had time to get into
the Lebanon, Arriola and Lake View
districts as yet" continued Mr.. Tay-
lor, "but / have no fear for those
districts as the buds in those sections
are not as far advanced as those in

TILL THE BUGLE SOUNDS
REYEILLE.

Funeral services for the late John
Curry, the veteran soldier, newspaper
man, pioneer, and citizen Of this en-
pire of the southwest, were held this
morning at st. Columba's church. A
large attendance Of friends of the de-
parted, many of these being from Sill
erton, testified to the esteem in which
he was held during the long life just
ended. The floral offerings were many
and beautiful, some of these being
from organizations to which the sub
ject of our sketch had belonged.
The services were under the aus
pices of the G. A. R., the members
of Sedgwick Post attending in a body,
Sam May carrying the flag, for which
the man lying cold and still, had
fought in bygone years. The casket
wasdraped in the stars and stripes,
and lying above the soft folds was
a Gala lily. There were no other
flowers on the casket, instead, they
we're massed at the foot of the stand
on which it rested.
The pallbearers were comrades of
the G. A. R., their names being as fol-
lows: M. Connors, F. Murphy, S.
Lohr, B. Whitaker, J. Rodgers, and
A. Burnham. After the service, which
included the requiem high mass, the
cortege left for Greenmount, where
interment took place.
