NUT of the conglomeration of styles " which the beginning of winter ushered in. many are passing and a few are to remain for spring. Here IS a pretty and rather plain cloth gown for present wear which may be copied in taffeta silk, figured or plain yoile tor both). in white embroidered fabrics in fact, in any of the beauti- ful summer materials. It will be found strictly up to date when the time comes for wearing it.
 A very pretty development of it shows plain skirt, quite full enough to step in at the normal stride. with the hip drapery made of figured voile having a white ground with colored flowers. The bodice is made of this voile combined with shadow lace. There is a girdle of leaf green messa- line ribbon and a sash which extends about the figure under the drapery and ties in bow tat the right side) with short hanging ends. These pret- ty voiles sell at a very reasonable price-in the neighborhood of forty cents a yard-and make up into as I elegant looking dresses as those that cost four or five times as much.
 We are to have a spring and sum- mer season with everything flower decked. Small flowers on hats.

Powder Puffs for the Purge.

Little crocheted powder puffs are the latest novelty for the purse. They can easily be made at home.
 Crochet two circular pieces about the size of a silver dollar out of mer- cerized cotton of any shade desired. Carefully sew them together, leaving small openings through which to pour in the powder. Fill the bag full with the powder, so that it will sift through easily when patted gently on the face. Then make a pretty edge around the circular piece by croeheting few rows of plain chain stitch, each added row to be caught into the middle of the preceding one which gives a sort of ruffle effect. An opening can safe ly be made by cutting a stitch or two when it is necessary to refill the puff.

PRETTY BONNET TO AD0RN THE
 SMALL MAIDEN

TT IS a delight to make the pretty lit tie bonnets and caps which small daughters and little sisters look so adorably sweet in, and 1t is by no means difficult.
 Here is one made of chiffon taffeta silk, with plaited rufies of moussel- leine and lace. The puffed crown is simply a circle of silk about eighteen inches in diameter, with rows of shirring at the edge. This is sewed to a narrow covered head band or bandeau, bound with pin shirring wire.
 Underneath the band the rufIles are placed after being gathered into ample fullness. The knife plating may be made of the same silk as the crown

New Materials for Toilet Articles.

New Materials for Toilet Articles.
 If you must be abreast of the times throw away or give away the toilet articles in silver, ivory or celluloid which have been your faithful friends for years, and get everything new in art glass, which comes in the most alluring tints of cream, rose, mauve and green and in classically severe de- signs. The little boxes for powder, rouge and soap have square bottoms like the base of a Corinthian pillar and convex covers like the dome of the Madeleine, while the clock cases, pin trays and mirror backs are equal ly plain and ponderous. If you don't care for toilet articles in glass, even of the most artistic sort, you may turn toward those in alabaster, or what looks like alabaster. These come in shapes similar to the articles In glass, but are pure white and prom, ise to be more durable.

ranged at the top of the forehead, leaving the sides almost plain. The arrangement depends upon which way best becomes the bride
 In the picture the fitness appears at the side, with the border turned back over the forehead. The crown, or puff, which results from making the frill about the face, falls back If 1t is more becoming the cap portion may be supported by small wire loops at the front, and made to stand.
 One of the prettiest arrangements shows the frill of even fitness all around and tackled to a circlet of white, silk covered wire, to hold 1t in place. This wire circlet is placed on he outside of the cap but is hidden by a close set wreath of orange bios. soms and buds, one flower set just aft CT another in single row. This ar. engagement brings the veil into the nape of the neck.
 Some families possess wedding wells of beautiful lace, and such a veil must
 
 as time goes on. The wedding veil of lace should be kept and. whether the fashion be for long or short veils, worn by the brides in the family. Wedding dresses and veils are always to be conservative in design, abiding by established rules and a little above the whims of fashion. That is, the regulation gown has long sleeves. the neck is covered, and the gown is cut in the Princess style. Round necks are admissible, but not low necks Lace sleeves, and long gloves also. It is the business of the designer or dressmaker to bear in mind the estab- lished order of things in making we'd ding apparel and to add little present day touches to the plain long lines of the regulation gown.
 The cap drapery of the veil is most popular just now, because caps of all sorts are greatly favored It is best to arrange it on circlet of wire be- cause it will stay in place on the head and not becoma easily disarranged.

 BRIDAL WELLS
 IN FAVOR TODAY

DRIDAL veils of tulle are never out O of fashion, but sometimes they share honors with veils of lace or net bordered with lace. The liking for a cap drapery on the head has rather favored the lace-bordered veil, al though the tulle veil is draped cap fashion also.
 Lace veils are not always long; those of wand and half, falling above the knees at the side are liked, especially when the gown is lace trimmed
 The cap drapery admits of consid- erable variety in arrangement. The frill, formed by lace edge, may be of even fullness all around and fall over the forehead, or it may be placed at each side and the frill turned back from the forehead, or 1t may he ar

Shirt Rosoms.

The shirt bosoms which were intro duced in chiffon on the chiffon and crepe de chine blouses this winter are evidently to continue as the dis tinguishing feature of the tailored waists for early spring. There is one difference, however; they are now de- veloped in contrasting material. For instance, on model in light weight linen the shirt bosom is of plaited handkerchief linen, with a tiny floral design in color scattered over it, this color not being repeated on the Robe spierre collar.

dresses with sprays or single blossom of small flowers, lowered ribbon gir- dies and vests, parasols with millinery flowers added for adornment, or with flowers printed in the coverings. A little study of the styles will betray the tendency to the quaint old-fash- toned ideas in which flowers were the paramount means of expression in us- ing color Nothing prettier has ever been thought out.
 The little gown pictured is not at all difficult to make. It is an "easy- going" fit but must be draped and hung core ly Almost any pattern house can provide a paper pattern for guidance in cutting this dress. More material is required this season than for the past two.
 F1ounces and hip draperies are to the fore, but 1t is not likely that we shall go to extremes in the matter of growing fond of voluminous skirts.
 The narrow band of fur which fin- ishes the bodice on the gown pictured can be omitted for spring or summer wear. But if the gown is made for wear in southern winter resorts this narrow border of fur appears on the sheerest of materials-as lace net and chiHons

and need not be hemmed at the edge. It is poised under the lace.
 By way of trimming, a narrow rib bon ruching is placed about the crown and a rosette of baby ribbon with hanging ends is placed at the side. Ties of ribbon about three inches wide complete this pretty piece of headgear
 Bonnets of this kind are made up in all the colors that children wear, and are very practical for almost every season of the year Tiny boauets of fruit blossoms. little June roses. forgetme-nots, and little daisies are added Flowers and ribbons are of all things the best for childrens millinery.

United States District Attor-

Who Shoot Ducks and
Geese Will Be Prose.
cuted

Hunters who have taken out
hunting licenses with the ex-
pectation that the state is GO
ing to protect them in the VIC
lation of the new federal game
protective law are going to
make q mistake If they con-
clude to defy the government.
Deputy Game Warden Grone-
veg, who il also deputy United
States marshal, has received
instructions from Colonel Tenn
pie, United States district at
torney, saying it will be his
duty to arrest and bring before
federal court officials all per-!
sons found violating the feder-
al game law prohibiting the
shooting Of ducks, geese and
all other kinds Of migratory
water fowl during the season
of 1914. Arrests made In this
vicinity will put an additional
hardship upon the victims, for
since the resignation Of w. F..
Sapp as United States commits
sioner here, the office has been
vacant and is likely to remain
so for some time. All persons
charged with offenses against
federal laws who may be taken
into custody by Deputy Grone-
veg will have to 60 to Creston
for preliminary hearing, as the
nearest commissioner Is loca-
ted there. This will add con-
slierably to the time, expense
and general annoyance that
will follow arrests.
Mr.. Groneweg has taken
pains 10 announce that he will
pay NO attention to the state
game license laws, but will
promptly place under arrest ev-
cry person found violating the
federal law.
Some lawyers anxious to en-
courage resistance, have ex-
pressed the opinion that the
federal law will not stand q
test, but the majority Of the
local attorneys say there is mo-
question about the power Of
the Government to regulate the
slaughter of migratory birds,
ard that the new game law is
as clearly constitutional as Is
the interstate commerce law.

Communication

Des Moines, Ia. Feb. 6, IA
Mr.. Lyle Stebbins, Mo. Valley,
Ia, Dear Sir: The government
passed a law prohibiting spring
shooting of ducks and it was
understood that this law would
not be put into force until af-
ter the close of the present
year and the hunting licenses
that had been issued has expir-
ed. We issued q statement to
this effect some time ago, but
since have been Informed that
the government is holding that
the law is in force in Iowa and
that any parties shooting ducks
this spring will be liable to
prosecution under the national
law.
So far as the State Depart
ment is concerned, we expect
to fulfill our part of the con-
tract, and will take no part on
prohibiting the shooting Of
ducks until the close of the sea-
son according to the Iowa law.
We cannot and do not offer any
relief to parties who hunt and
are prosecuted under the gov
eminent law, as that is entirely
out Of our jurisdiction and
something over which we have
no control, 80 that the hunter
must know If he hunts ducks
this spring he is liable to prose-
cution by the government.
Yours Truly,
E. c. Hinshaw.

Reclaim Much Of
Mobiles Lake

A plan for draining Mobiles
lake on the bolder line between
Harrison and Pottawattamie
counties, was submitted by En-
gineer j. H. Mayne to the
boards If supervisors of the
two counties in session here
Thursday afternoon. The pro-
ject, if it goes thro' will re
claim much valuable land
The joint board was in ses-
sion here all day, adjourning
late in the afternoon to recon-
vene on February II. One
month later, on March II, the
joint board will meet again to
determine whether or not to
take up the project of draining
Mobiles lake, as suggested by
the engineer.
In his report the engineer
advised that Mobiles lake is a
basin which is filled from the
Missouri floods, and because of
. high rim on the east, west
and south the water in the lake
Is held at an elevation near the
level of the surrounding farm
land. Az a result. the adjacent
land is kept saturated until the
slow process of seepage and
evaporation lowers the water
level. Tributary to Mobiles
lake is the old lake bed known
as Wilson lake.
The character Of the soil, the
engineer advised, is of the Mis-
souri, river bottom variety, gen.
orally underlaid with sand. By
keeping the water in the lake
at q low level The ground water
will generally be kept we'll be-
low the surface, he suggested.
Mr.. Mayne recommended a
ditch that would drain the lake
down to the ordinary low wa
ter level, and the enlargement
Of the present ditch from Will
son lake. An outlet would thus
be furnished for tile and other
lateral drainage The lands
bordering the lake could thus
be made available for cultiva-
ton, he declared.
The engineer estimated the
cost of the project at Sl3.956,
which he itemized as follows:
Right Of way and damages,
100; main ditch. $4,000 yards
at Is cents, $500; lateral,
5000 yards at Is Cents, $1,000
lateral, 5000 yards at Is cents,
$1,000; lateral, 1900 yards at
IL cents, Sl56; board, auditors,
commissioners, advertising and
legal expenses, $1,000; engi-
neering and supervision, 81, 900.
