SPOKANE WEEKLY REPORT.

Although the recent heavy rains
which fell throughout Pacific North
west, did slight damage to strawberry,
cherry and alfalfa crops in some sec
lions OF the country and crushed down
grain in some instances, the result ON
the whole has been beneficial. Local
grain dealers who have been investi-
eating throughout the Big Bend coun.
try, report that farmers are jubilant
over the outlook and that a conserva-
tive prophesy Of the crops for that
section this season will place the yield
at from fifteen to twenty per cent in
excess of the yield Of last year. In
the Palouse country the soil retains
moisture longer and the yearly pre-.
cipitation is greater, consequently the
rain was not 80 helpful in that dis
trlct, but In the Big Bend country, the
principal grain producing section of
the Pacific Northwest, conditions are
different and every drop of water has
it's distinct advantage.
Reports from the principal fruit
growing districts are to the effect that
the apple crop this year will range
somewhere between so and 80 per
cent Of the bumper yield of last sea-
son.
In the Various industrial fields re-
ports continue to show an increase In
activity over the corresponding period
OF last year. LAUNDERING and mining
stand out especially prominent.
Jobbing and retailing trade contin.
ues normal in all lines, with a steady
demand for seasonable goods. But

Is distinctly good. Quotations are
strong and 1t Is probable that there
will be an advance In the next two

ITCHING AND BURNING

iberia, MOI was troubled with
scalp eczema for about five years and
tried everything heard of, but all OF
no avail. The doctors told me would

Remedies would do me good. This
spring l purchased two boxes OF Cuti-
cura Ointment and one cake Of CUT
cura Soap. After using one box of
Cuticura Ointment considered the
cure permanent, but continued to use
1t to make sure and used about one
half the other box. Now 1 am entirely

"The disease began on the back Of
my head, taking the form of ring
worm, only more severe, rising to g.
thick, rough scale that would come OT
when soaked with oil or warm water.
bringing few hairs each time, but in
each time, and spreading until the en-
tire back of the head was covered with
the scale. This was accompanied by
a terrible itching and burning sensa-

HEALTH AND GOOD LOOKS
propriate Care of Both Those I'm
portant Items.

Various doctors and artists have
been once again discussing the vexed
question as to whether women should
wear corsets, and they have once
again come to the inevitable conclu-
sion that if they wear the right cor
sets they are considerably improved
by them. If ever the wasp waist as
serts itself again among US it will be
something to grumble at, but the cor
set of today is really beneficial rather
than harmful, if it is properly made
and properly worn. 1t may be that
we ought not to require the support
of corsets, but life in these days is
artificial, and surely it is better to
have good figure by means of a good
corset than to have bad figure with
out it.
Just the same, good many women
are not sufficiently careful about their
corset. and then they wonder why
their gowns never look we'll Better
a cheap, ready-made blouse robe on a
good corset than an elaborate frock
over shapeless one. 1t will not only
be better from the point of view of
health and carriage, but it will even
give an air to the gown. French wom-
en- have built up their reputation for
dressing well, not on their taste in
gowns, but by their attention to the
corset.

KlMoN0S IN ALL DESIGNS
Dainty Negligee Garment May Be Had
In Practically Any Form That San
Be Required.

Despite the pronounced vogue of
Chinese modes in formal garb, the Jap
anese kimono remains the intimate
friend of the women who has a col
lection of dainty lounging robes. For
those cold mornings when the wind
bowls outside and the furnace is in
sulky mood, there are comforting
robes of quilted Japanese silk, dainti-
ly handworked with light and dark
floss For milder weather there are
adorable kimonos of Powered satin
with borders of satin or Japanese silk,
and some of these have the shirrings
at the elevated waist line which
slightly suggest blending of the EN-
pire with the Oriental style. Still
more fascinating are the cotton and
silk crepes in white, sprinkled over
with pink cherry blossoms and in
blue or rose printed with graceful
sprays of white wistaria To wear the
kimono there should be a clinging
loose slip of satin in solid tone
matching either the grounding or the
figuring of the robe Many women,
however, prefer to wear the ordinary
princess garment of Seco silk trimmed
with lace ruffies or the one in white
lingerie carrying riuslin embroidery
Van Dyck point insertions, and edg'
ings of Valenciennes lace.

FOR THE LITTLE ONES
FASHIONS DICTATES OF THE SEA.
SON PERMIT DISPLAY.
Accordion-P!eated Crepe de Chine
Model, Shown Here, is One of the
Prettiest That Has Been
Evolved This Year.

This is an age when elaborate and
expensive clothes are not only permits
sible but essential to the small child
who is dressed according to fashions
word. To be sure, play clothes and
street frocks are simple, even if they
are expensive, but afternoon clothes
are not only expensive-they are elab-
crate as well.
The frock illustrated is one of the
charming accordion-pleated crepe de
chine models made for little girls.
The dress is simple enough in outline,
but the yoke is of real baby Irish lace,
and the crepe de chine, to be durable
and yet soft and thin, must be expens-
i've.
Some of the frocks for very little
girls, like the one described, have high
waist lines, but many of them have the
belt fastened well below the knees.
Ribbon belts are almost exclusively
used for little girls Sometimes the
crushed and folded ribbon is fastened
about the frock with invisible stitches,
sometimes it is run through embroid-
cred beading, sometimes through but
tonholed Sits in the skirt of the Track.
Hand tucking and hand embroidery
are combined with expensive lace to
make children's clothes elaborate. One
lovely frock shows band of tiny pink

NO NEED TO "H0LD PRONE
Sound Magnlfying Trumpet Which
Will Tell You When 1t Is Time
to Talk.

There is a sound magnifying trum-
pet of fat shape, behind which is
small attachment intended to support
the telephone receiver. When it be
comes necessary to hold the line,
when calling up or replying, instead OF
the person standing with the receiver
glued to his ear he places the receiver
upon the time saver, bringing the ear
piece into position with the sound
magniier He is then at liberty to
resume his duties until such time as
the person required at the opposite
end attends his instrument.
This is notified by the speech trans
mitter being magnified by the time
saving device so as to be perfectly
audible at a distance. The receiver
may then either be withdrawn and
held to the ear in the usual way, OF
left in connection with the magnifer
hearing being quite as simple and
easy as under normal conditions. An
other advantage of the invention is
that the users two hands are left free
to carry out any other requisite task
such as the turning up of documents
making references, writing down mes
sages or instructions from dictation
and so on.

MADE HAPPY BRIDAL TABLE
Novel Ideas, a Feature of Recent Din

In the Memory.

At a dinner given by some college
lads and Iassies to a couple who had
been very popular and whose engage

davs. the following were some of the
novel features: For a centerpiece
there was a good-sized sailboat afioat
on real water, which was supposed to,
represent the "Sea of Matrimony'' and
the name on the boats side was "Just

white roses and red carnations, the
two class flowers. When the clear

London and its Lumber.

London is the most conservative city
in Europe, If not in the world. 1t loves
it's lumber. You may still see those
notices attached to lamp posts which
announces Standing for Four Hack,
ney Carriages, or whatever the num-
Der may be, though for ten years lin
one case, to my own knowledge for
twenty-fve) no vehicles of any kind
have stood there. Perhaps it is as well
that these relics should remain; they
are tiny part of our social history.
They will probably remain when we
are flying to dinner or the theater in
omni-aeros. By that time people won't
know what hackney carriage" meant,
and there will be discussions in the
Notes and Queries of the period.
For each generation hands down to the
next certain nuts to crack.

roses embroidered just above the hem
of the fine lawn skirt, another band
about the neck, and others about the
edge of the elbow sleeves. Fine val
lace Is set in below the embroidery on
the waist in elaborate design, and the
skirt is finished with hemstitching.
Shepherd checks in black and white
wool are popular for street frocks for
small girls. These frocks are simply
made, sometimes in Norfolk coat
style, with black patent leather belts
and fat linen collars, sometimes in
Russian blouse style with collars of
Irish lace.
Leather handba gs for children are
sold to match any conceivable colored
rock They are carefully made of
good leather and are simpler as well
as smaller than full-sized bags.
Handkerchief linen is used for some
of the daintiest of the small girls
frocks. Fine India and linon lawn are
also used. Marquisette and wolfe are
used, too, and prove serviceable as
well as dainty. 1t should be made up
rather simply, as it is itself decorative,
and rather heavy for children. 1t is
especially pretty for children if it is
trimmed only with heavy cluny lace
Tucks, too, look well in wolfe, and a
model child's frock of the material is
made with three tucks about an inch
and a half deep running around the
skirt Just above the three-inch hem.
They are machine stitched.

CATCHING Files Paws Well.

Catching flies is affording Shreve-
port (La.) man profitable and indie
pendent living. He sells them to the
city board of health. His name is
Bartsch. and his net revenue from the
fly industry for the first two days of a
recent week was $24.20. When the
health board began offering premiums
for the flies, dead or alive, Bartsch
purchased about 100 traps and placed
them in f1y-ridden sections of the city.
Then he began making inroads on the
health boards exchequer, and SO well
did he operate that he bore the market
price down from so cents to 20 cents
quart, for it is by that measure that
the board purchases. Bartsch is still
working, and he will work as long as
the treasury holds out. He finds fly
catching pays.

BOILED EGGS BETRAY THEM
Nationality of Diners Is Shown in
Their Various Methods OF
Eating.

Sherlock Holmes might have figured
this out, but he did not!
The average Englishman will al
ways demand his egg boiled just
three minutes, then he places it in an
egg cup, just large enough to have
the egg fit 1t, taps the top of the
shell, and removes the broken shell
with his fingers. The egg is eaten a
spoonful at time.
A Frenchman, much like the Eng
lishman, likes his eggs Of three min
utes, exactly. He then "peels" them,
places them In glass, stirs and
mixes well together with salt, pepper
and butter. He makes a practice OF
dipping bread into the mixture, and
eating it along with the eggs.
A Spaniard wouldn't think of letting
his egg boil more than one minute.
He then breaks it, and let's the con-
tents run into a glass, and consumes
it as II he were drinking glass OF
wine.
An egg Is only fit in an Italians
estimation when 1t has been placed
in cold water. and removed just as
the water begins to boil. He then
breaks it, pours it on a plate, and
proceeds to sop it with bread.
The German, like the Italian, de-
mands his eggs as near the liquid
state as possible. He breaks his eggs
in an unsightly cup, and scoops the
liquid out as if it were soup.
The American is about the only one
who prefers his eggs boiled hard.
When they are served up to him, he
knifes them in half, removes the con-
tents into a glass, after which he
adds a plentiful supply of pepper, but
ter and salt. He then minces the
eggs fine, mixing them well with the
spices. and eats them with his toast.

Regulation Weight.

There is only one way to regulate
body weight, and that is by the nat
ural method-by diet, exercise, bath
ing, etc.-by alimentation and elimina-
ton. The nostrums advertised to take
off flesh without change Of diet are all
dangerous. Be sure of that, and avoid
them The same diet that will put
flesh on thin man will take flesh off
a fat one. In other words, natural
diet produces a natural condition Of
the body.
