FR0CKS Of F|LMY WHITE
They Are Trimmed with Delicate
LaCes for Commencement.

In many schools commencement comes
the end Of this month, and a number OF
fond mammas, home seamstresses and ex-
elusive dressmakers are already busy max
ing frocks for the sweet girl graduate. The
season has brought a number OF flmy
white materials for this purpose, and many
more pretty ways OF making them up.
The chic graduating dress is not neces-
sariy elaborate: It may gain its air OF dis
tinction from the smallest amount Of trim

kind and is used in an original manner.
Sheer handkerchief linen. fine. silky main

fer graduation frocks. These can be
trimmed with real or fine imitation fllet
shadow lace. creamy point Venise or baby

ciennes Is always fashionable, and when
used on fine quality OF organize Is indie
scribably lovely. SILK marquisette is used
for the more pretentious graduation gowns.
One pretty little gown now being made is
Of white batste, trimmed with yeilo"ish
lace and clusters Of white satin roses, the
latter used both at The waist and on the
skirt. Another. which is TO be worn al

waist and finished with a hchu bodice. A
white organdie frock with surplice waist
has a fchu edged with pinked taffeta
ruche and the skirt is trimmed with
ruche to match.
At a small boarding school where the
color OK the senior class is rose II has been
decided to have this color appear in the
commencement gowns. They are to have
foundations Of pale rose messaline. over
which will be three-tiered skirts OF net
founcng. and sashes Of rose satin.
Some sort OF q white gown IS necessary
for the out-of-door class day exercises at
most schools. Dresses OF fine white French

for this occasion. or little white taffeta
gowns, completed with the cutaway coat,
to match. A temporary collar OF the class
color. made Of satin can be applied for the
time being.

HARRY BLISS IS
 HIT BYSTREET CAR

While crossing Nineteenth street at Park avenue going to his home last night Harry Bliss. aged about 35. was run over by Fountain Heights car No. ao1 and serl- ously injured. He was taken to St. Vim cents hospital in the ambulance of the Johns Undertaking company.
 Bliss right arm was broken and his skull was fractured on the right side of the head. He also had a number of ether injuries. Following an operation upon him last night a physician stated that he would be unable to tell his exact condition until the effects of the opsr- ation were over
 For several hours the identity of the man was not known, but his father hear ing of the accident fancied that it was his son. Harry, and went to the hospital to see. He identified him just after the oper- ation was completed
 A peculiar feature of the accident is that Bliss was run over in the exact spot where Col J. F. B. Jackson was kill several weeks ago, and near the place where an old Jewish peddler was run over and seriously injured some time since It is regarded as one of the most dangerous crossings in the city and is poorly lighted, it is claimed.
 Bliss lives with his father at SIS North Nineteenth street and is married. The car which struck him was in charge of Motorman Sims and Conductor Brown. The accident happened about $50 o'clock.

ONE MILLION DOLLARS FOR
A GOOD STOMACH
This Oiier Should BE Warning TO
Every Man and Woman.

The newspapers and medical jour
nails recently have had much to say
relative to d famous millionaire's Of
fer of a million dollars for new
stomach.
This great multi-millionaire was too
busy to worry about the condition OF
his stomach. He allowed his dyspep-
STA to run from bad to worse until In
the end II became incurable.
His misfortune serves as a warning
to others.
Every one who suffers with dyspep-
sia for few years will give every
thing he owns for new stomach.
Dyspepsia is commonly caused by
an abnormal state OF the gastric
juices, or by lack of tone In the walls
of the stomach. The result Is that the
stomach loses its power to digest food
We are now able to supply certain
missing eleme nts---to help restore to
the gastric juices their digestive
power, and to aid In making the stom'
ach strong and well.
We know that Rexall Dyspepsia
Tablets are a most dependable rem
edy for disordered stomachs, indiges

THE FATHER OF APPLE INDUSTRY
OF THE NORTHWEST

The nearing of the fifth apple show
at Spokane next week gives excep-
tional interest to the story of the
father of the apple industry in the
Pacific northwest. This is Ezra Smith,
"the Honorable Ezra" as they know
him in Oregon, and he came to the
Pacific coast in 1861. He was an init
mate friend of Abraham Lincoln, and
as lieutenant governor of California
did much with Starr King to save the
golden state to the federal Union.
President Johnson, at Secretary Sew
ards insistence, made him acting gov
ernor of the then new territory OF
Washington.
When Mr.. Smith left Olympia and
sailed up the Columbia he came to
district of shelving land that rests in
scenes of surprising beauty. He de
cided to make his home there for the
remainder of his days. He conceived
the idea that to plant a fruitbearins
tree is a prayerful act Orchards be
came a passion with him. He laid ou
one after another, nursed them into
bearing and then gave them to the
youthful pioneers.
Others grew affluent, but Smith KEEP
on planting. He proclaimed the gla'
tidings of orchardry. He urged man!
men on to the rewarding labor of grow
ing wonderful apples.
He found that production is onl,
half of the problem, that marketing i
the other half and that the market i
affected by the merit of the pack. s.
he devised the box pack, became tn
father of horticultural associations an
played an instrumental role in tn
northwestern legislatures enactin
rigorous regulations as to CROWN
fruit. 1t is partly in consequence G
such laws that you can eat an appl
from the Pacific northwest in tn
dark, for it has become a felony to e.
port a worm in an apple.
Mr.. Smith has been an inspiratio
to all educational movements, but whf
he has done for the apple industr
has been his distinctive contribute

BULGARIA PRAYER
WHOLE COUNTRY SUMMONED TO
CHURCH TO A MASS
OF THANKS.
Their ARMY PUTS TURKEY TO ROUT
Their Government censors Allow Only
Officially Assured Facts to Pass
We May Have Legation
at Sofia.

The bells in every church Sunday
throughout Bulgaria summoned people
to a mass of thanks. The services
were largely attended, this practically
was the only celebration of the great
victory of Lule Burgas and is illustra-
tive of the Bulgarian attitude.
Unlike Japanese censors, who al
lowed all rumors to go, Bulgaria per-
mits only officially assured facts. The
only cheering heard since have been
in Sofia is for departing Macedonian
and Bulgarian volunteers.
Fastening to Join Army.
Every town taken over the border
means more Bulgarians fastening into
Bulgaria to join the army groups.
These hardy Macedonians are seen fire.
quently coming into town.
OF those who gave their prayer of
thanks in the churches, unless they
had heard through friends at hospitals,
none knew whether relatives at the
front were killed, wounded or living.
No official lists are sent out nor do
the people complain that there are not
any. Bulgarians keep repeating the
thoughts of the nation on the object.
Costs can be counted after the object
is gained.
All Mac edonian and later drafts are
rushed to Adrianople while the Bull
garian first and second armies con-
front the Turks at Tchorlu.
Turks Fading Away.
All reports from the Soninka region
indicate Turkish opposition is fading
away. Companies are disbanding and
soldiers are throwing away their rifles
Two Bulgar divisions moving south
joined in the valley of Struma below
Neurskop and expect to arrive at Sal
onika, but the Greeks, having the
start, probably will beat them. An
other Bulgar division, having Joined
forces with a Serb division from Us
kub, also IS in this marathon.
Now that a Bulgarian army is put

we may have a legation or at least &
