Found Riches in Australia.

How to become a millionaire is to
follow in the footsteps of Sydney Kid
man. the Queensland cattle king, who
holds more land than anyone else in
Australia, his runs aggregating some
thing like $4,000 square miles, which
is, he confesses, ''far too much for
any one man to have"
Leaving his parents home near
Adelaide, AZ years ago, at the age Of
13, to seek his fortune, he got EN-.
ployment as cowboy on the Gipps
station at two dollars q week. Then he
carted wood and drove bullocks on the
Darling and was one of the first at

he went in for cattle and horse deal
ing, and, in partnership with others,
took "out-back" mail contracts in va
Tious states in Australia. There was
a lot Of money made in those days
and Kidman got his share Of it.

First Land Opening in Iowa.

Eighty years ago, on June l, 1888
the first legal settlements were made
by white people on Iowa soil. Be-
fore that time a number of settlers
had come in, contrary to law, but
many of them were driven out by
United States troops. In September,
1892, however, treaty was made
with the Sac and Fox Indians by
which a strip of land in eastern Iowa,
known as the Black Hawk purchase,
was ceded to the United States and
thus made available for white settle
ment. "The time having expired on
the first of June, 1888, for the In
dams longer to remain on the pur-
chase" wrote J. B. Newhall, an early
resident of Burlington, in rare old
book called Sketches of Iowa." a
copy of which is preserved in the IL
brary of the State Historical Society
of Iowa, "the floodgates of emigra-
ton were opened. From this date
may be taken the first permanent
settlement of Iowa by the pale faces;
and scarcely had the red man set his
footsteps in the order of march
towards the setting sun, ere the set
tier was crossing the mighty river,
with his f1ocks and his herds, to
make new home on the sunny
plains of Iowa."

POINTS ABOUT THE COUTURE
Should Always Be Arranged in Keep
ing With Period Represented
by the Costume.

Every toilette of historical design,
semble the dress of the past, should
be suited with a couture arranged in
keeping with the period represented.
With a gown of the mid-Victorian per-
suasion the hair should be parted in
the center and brushed over the ears,
so that they are completely hidden.
At the back there should be loosely
puffed chignon.
The simplest of adornments may
trim the hair For the evening, and it
should take the form of band Of
velvet or a. double Gordon of little
flowers.
Ornamental tortoise-shell pins may
be worn, and, as it is considered ad-
vantageous to the appearance and
good for the hair not to use numbers
of hairpins, tortoise-shell prongs may
be substituted. One is exactly like a
large hairpin, inasmuch as it is made
of gold and has crinkled sides, so that
it can hold the hair securely, and at
the.top a row of diamonds is set.
With the spiral dress, as the CLASH
cal robe of today has been called, ow
ing to the fact that it is draped
round and round the figure, there
should be a classical couture rather
reminiscent of the mid-Victorian
vogue.
The hair is parted in the middle
and at the back is arranged in loose
ly woven basket plat. A wreath Of
small roses makes a pretty ornament
tor such a couture, and in the center
may be posed a couple Of Mercury
wings brilliant with simili diamonds.

Social Qyerstrain.

Mrs. VIM. J. Bryan, after but two
months of the fatiguing life of CAPT
tol society, has had to give way to a
nervous breakdown. Mrs. VIM. II.
Taft was another who was unable to
play that eXhausting game. Anyone
knows personally of similar instances.
The higher the station, the Weather
or more fortunate woman is, the
more likely a victim to neurathenla.
You might expect that men. who
must bear more than half OF the
worlds physical hardships, would be
the chief sufferers from nerves. On
the contrary, the doctors say that two
thirds of the neurotics are women.
And unmarried women, the majority
of whom nowadays work for their
living in competition with men, do not
suffer from nerves as do those who
are married.
Mere overwork does not often lead
to nervous prostration. The laund-
ress and the scrub woman rarely
haunt the doctors Office for this
cause.
The shopgirl envies the patrician
lady in her limousine and lmaglnes
that she is merely idling. But her
occupation may be more exhaustlng
than the shopgirls.
Normal life needs the patient, silent
performance of certain regular tasks,
easy because they are routine and the
mind is adjusted to them. The
social leader on the contrary, is un-
der strain every minute. She is ex-
pected to display brilliancy, to parry
other bright wits, to grasp social SIT

SOME IDEAS FOR GIFTS
DAINTY NOVELTIES SURE TO
PLEASE THE RECIPIENT.
Clever NeedIewoman Never Need BE
At a Loss for Suitable Present.
More Pleasing When Made
by Hand.

A gift that is made by hand Is al
ways twice as valuable as one that is
bought, and so many dainty novelties
are seen now that offer suggestions
for needlewomen that no one need be
at a loss as to what to make for the
traveller or the girl graduate or the
bride of these summer days.
To begin with the woman who is
going anywhere are so many gifts
one hardly knows where to start, but
one of the incest is set of dress
envelopes" for her trunk.
These envelopes are made Of heavy
linen. the shape copied from any en-
velope, and they should be the size of
the trunk. At least half dozen may
be made, bound with ribbon and work.
ed with monogram, and then into
them may be slipped the travellers
prettiest frocks, keeping them from
ever coming in contact with the 9TH
er things in the trunk.
Sometimes these envelopes are sim.
ply doubled sheets of bristol board
or heavy cardboard, covered with
linen and tied together with ribbon.
Another nice gift to make for the
traveller is a set of bags for her shoes,
or a case lined with oiled silk for
her toilet articles.
For bride-to-be the gifts are also
infinite in number and variety. A half
dozen little guest towels marked with
cross-stitch designs, satchet pads for
the chest in which her trousseau is
kept, anything in the way of house.
and also any bit of handmade lin
geries you may select.
Nothing very new, you say. Well,
perhaps not, but they will be new
and wonderful to the girl wrapped in
her dreams of future and present hap
piness.
For the girl graduate there are
many presents easily made. One Of
these is pretty case of kodak pic
lures made from long strips of linen
fastened together. the inner strip be-
ing made with buttonholes" wide
enough for the pictures at intervals
both top and bottom.
These may then be folded over and
over and tied with ribbons, the girls
and the date being worked
on the outside edge.
Another novel and attractive gift is
a set Of collars, cuffs, jabot, belt
and hat band, all of hand-worked
linen, edged perhaps with tiny frills
Of lace, while another nice gift for
either bride or girl graduate is a set
of aprons-a work apron, an en-
broidery aprons-being half way up
to form a huge pocket for work), 4
chafing dish apron and garden apron
all made by hand and embroidered
with the girls nonosra~

First White Men in Iowa.

1t was two hundred and forty
years ago, on June rs, 1873, that
white men first set foot on Iowa soil.
On that day the Indians living, in a
village which was probably located
at the mouth of the Iowa river were
surprised to see two men strange in
dress and color approaching along
the path which led from the river
bank. The two men We're Father
Marquette, a Jesuit priest, and Louis
Joliet, a French trader, who had set
out the previous month to discover
and explore the Mississippi river of
which they had heard so much. The
Indians received the strangers kindly
and with great ceremony, and it is
of this meeting that the poet Long
fellow wrote in "Hiawatha" in the
incident of the coming of the "Black-
Robe chief" There was feasting and
exchange of presents and then after
few days the explorers continued
their journey down the great river.
For many years it was supposed
that this first meeting between white
men and Indians on Iowa soil Oc-
Cured near the mouth of the Des
Moines river. But several years ago,
in an article published by the State
Historical Society of Iowa, Professor
Laellas G. Weld produced evidence
which goes to prove that the Indian
village was located at the mouth If
the Iowa river.

SPERRY'S. TALK A
FEATURE OF HEARING

Requested to lend his assistance by
James A. Rath, head worker of the
Palama Settlement, and introduced as
an expert on sex questions, Lyman B.
Sperry, NJ. D., made the closing speech
last evening at the senate hearing OH
Senator Bakers so-called red light"

close to one of the most eduCative and
enlightening hearings to which the
community has been treated during
the session of the present legislature.
Doctor Sperry began by saying that.
he had not come prepared to speak
and that he had no special desire to
speak, because Of the fact that the
trend of the discussion had so reused
him that his feelings were uppermOst
and that he could not speak as calmly
as he would like. He then proceeded
in a calm. firm and forceful manner to
tell how he had been led to devote his
life to matters pertaining to sex edu-
cation, and had travelled from coast to
coast and from gulf to lakes doing
what he could to free young men and
young women from medical quacks
and the dangers resulting from fgBor-
ance of sex matters. He quoted fig

TARIFF DREAD
HURTS MARKET

Under date of April 3, Willett &
Gray have the following comment on
the raw sugar market:

amount to about $4,000 bags at 3.45c
per pound and at 3-32c c. & f., equiv
alent to 3.45c Many of these sales

cannot be held for warehouse on &C
count of the coming lower tariff law.
No doubt this feature of the sugar
situation is responsible for the present
reaction in prices which must neces-
sarily run itself out till it is known
what the new tariff will be. At this
writing there are quite varying specu-
lations as to what this will be and no
value can be placed on the correct
ness of any of these Sguesses. Con-
gress will meet in extra session next
Monday and remain in session until
the tariff bill becomes law. The time
required to complete this legislation
is as much a mystery as the tariff it.
