Dear sir:--1 deem IL proper and
only fair that you be advised of
the position OF the Bureau OF Natur-
alization relative to declarat ons Of
intention on the part OF aliens
made prior TO September "a, 1906.
A decision OF the u. S. strict
Court for the eastern district OF
Arkansas, western division, in the
case OF In re Wehrll, reported in
i57 Fed, 93S. holds the seven year
limitation placed upon declara-
lions Of intention under the present
naturalization law (act of June 20.
1900 will also apply to old law
declarations made prior TO Septem-
Der ~ 1906 on the date said new
law became operative, towt Sep
TENDER ~, 1906. Therefore, all such
declarations, in the opinion OF the
Bureau, will become inyal d for
naturalization purposes on and af-
ter September %, 1913. and all pc
titions for naturalization based up
on such old declarations on and
after September %. 1913, will be
opposed by this office for the rea-
sons stated. IL is therefore sug-
sested that when an applicant for
citizenship calls upon you to file
A petition hat you advise him of
the view OF the Bureau Of Natural
i~zation, that he may decide whether
to file a petition based upon such
old declaration, or surrender the
declaration and make a new one,
which of course would mean a de-
lay of two years before he could
file a petition for citizenship based
thereon.

A RELIC OLE THE PAST

To the ordinary or garden variety
Of individual the sight of a sure
enough yoke of oxen In this day
and age seems rather homogeneous
especially IL they are seen by the
side OF a modern, block signaled
railway upon which a fifty-mile-an-
hour train is speeding. To Ameri-
"A Falls people, however, little
or no attention is paid to a sight
which within ten years will have
gone the way of the stage coach and
the horse car. Last Friday a string
Of twelve yoke of oxen hitched to
loaded wheat wagons entered town
and drew up In front of the con-
crete elevator, where the hundreds
OF sacks we're unloaded into the
wheatpit. The outfit belongs to a
German farmer living on a dry farm
to the west of this city. and is a
mute argument for better and swift
er ean of transportation.
That afternoon the patient beasts
we're headed toward home, and as
the long train of empty wagons
crawled slowly 10 the grade on the
other side of the river a person
wonders whether this is the
twentieth century or bygone terri
torial days-at this point in the
day dream a saucy Ford car dashes
around the corner amid a wreath OF
gasoline fumes-it's the twentieth
century all right.

cries include some bits Of the bright
colors that have made such a feature
Of the summer Used to excess. these
oolors are over-varm in effect and by
no means agreeable. but bits Of color
on white arc often picturesque. as in
the case Of this illustration The sim
pie straight skirt is made Of bordered
material and around the lower edge
is attached a hand Of oolored silk.
This silk matches the girdle. The
color almost as a matter of course
matches one Of the shades used in
the embroidery and the color reappears
in the hat trimming and in the parasol.

way are the smartest Of all things.
It is a season Of matched effects and

well a. lawn and batiste, while nets
are made up in essentially lingerie
styles. The pretty little dress that is
shown in the picture is made from the
daintiest printed voile. The design is
one Of little flowers and the trimming
is frills Of plain white voile while at the
waist is worn softly draped girdle
Of pale green silk that Just matches
the leaves in the design with a pink
rose tucked in TO give a chic bit Of
color Such a frock is charming for

designs. too. and the air Of simplicity
is essentially smart The same idea

attractive made Of plain white wolfe
with frills Of shadow lace The skirt
is Just a plain one in two pieces with
seams at the sides only and it is gath

little surplice bertha is arranged over

which the trimming hand is arranged
It is half visible through the voile and
that yelled effect makes an important
feature Of prevailing fashions. Every
thing that can be arranged beneath
transparent material is so placed All
the trimming of thin blouses IS isarranged
on the lining and the contrast afforded
by this blouse is particularly attractive.
The idea is one that can be repeated
with many variations. For the infof-
nal dinner and occasions Of the kind.
the skirt and bosom could be made
Of oharmeuse satin or crepe with the
blouse and frills Of chiffon. or net
could be used in combination with
elk Any transparent material will
give the veiled effect to the blouse and
the veiled effect is desirable but what
i desirable is by no means necessary
and a pretty effect could be obtained
by using crepe de chine for the entire
gown with only the bosom in contrast
and omitting the lace trimming band
The result would be somewhat similar
to this one and equally attractive in a
different way The treatment Of the
sash on this figure is not to be forgotten
for sashes are all-important and this
low knot is particularly attractive and
graceful.

linen and piaut are favorite ratenalS-a
and the simple one piece models are
greatly liked. The one that is shown
here is made of rose-colored hnen
embroidered in white and the ems
broidery gives Just the individual and
distinctive touch that is always de-
sirable. The black patent leather belt
and black tie are smart touches. Buff
linen would be handsome treated IN
Just the same way or indeed any
preferred color, but buff, rose color
old blue and green are fashionable
colors.
The dainty little lingerie frocks are
always charming. Since voile has been
added to the list Of musIins, they are
perhaps more so than used TO be the
case. for hne material with lace banding
makes as pretty comOinalon As any
that can be found. Undoubtedly
children's dresses feel the influence Of
color and good many are made Of
oolored voile and colored batiste with =
white trimming but there is an essen
tial daintines- and charm about the
oil white dress that is never to be

w THATEVER fashions may come
w and whatever may 60, the
lingerie gown is always in
demand for warm weather. One Of the
prettiest fancies Of the summer. which
is novel also, is the combination Of
fancy material with plain and there is
an excellent example shown on one Of
the figures. The design is a good one
for such purpose, for the skirt is cut in
just four cores and trimming outlines
the front gore while it is arranged in
such way on the blouse as to give a
panel effect and. in this instance that
panel and the front gore are made Of
dotted voile. while the remainder Of
the gown is Of plain. The trimming is
one Of the heavy laces that are so much
in vogue for thin materials. II the
same idea were TO be copied in muslin
or voile it would be better to use
Valenciennes. Mechlin. Irish crochet or
perhaps a combination Of crochet and
Nalenciennes. The gown is really
very dainty one yet it is simple. 1t is
easy to arrange trimming when the
indications are given for placing it

sleeves are equally liked but long
sleeves undoubtedly are fashionable
