Fine plain organdie or dimity or
the best grades in lawn are suited to
the dress shown in the middle of the
picture. 1t is also a one-piece slip,
with the fullness provided for by deep
plaits laid over the shoulders in the
back and front. The skirt is bor-
dered with a wide band at the bot
tom, of printed organdie, showing
plain and figured stripes alternating,
and the sleeves are finished with one
plain and one figured stripe of the
same material. The figures appearing
in the border are calculated to capti

six to nine years old, set forth the
most approved lines on which frocks
for children are made. They are OF
fabrics most in demand for occasional
wear. They are made in the same de-

wear, but show more latitude in the
matter of decoration.
At the left of the picture the little
miss is arranged in party frock of
messaline. 1t could hardly be more
simply cut If 1t were gingham school
dress. 1t is a plain slip with parallel
tucks running lengthwise at the front

beginning of the other, the two form
ing a double braid across the back of
the head. But the arrangement of the
braids must depend upon the length of
the hair. If it is very long they will
be coiled and pinned down at the back
of the head or wrapped about It, The
feature to be noted in this coiffure
especially is the fact that the hair
Is brought forward so that the braids
begin above the ears.
To dress the hair in this way sue
cessfuily requires that it be first made
fluffy. small support is needed to
keep the pompadour in place. A
scant supply of natural hair may be
dressed in this way by using two short
switches in the braids at the sides.

ROSEBURG. Ore, Nov. 27.-The
final summary of the estimated tax
budget of Douglas county for the COM
ing year was completed by the coun-
ty court It shows an estimated ex-
penditure of $S5S.602. as against an
estimate of s512,2O2 year ago. This
shows an apparent reduction of
S15S,600
In last years estimate, however,
was included about $4,000 OF taxes
charged against the oregon & Cali
fornia railroad lands and the lands
Of the Southern oregon company, in
litigation in the federal courts, and
upon which the taxes have not been
paid and will not be paid If the
lands revert to the government. The
state tax for the coming year is estl-
mated at sl0O,226 AS there are no
bridges to be erected this year, the
road levy is materially reduced.
Notwithstanding the heavy reduc-
tion in total valuations, the tax levy
will be 1876 mllls-just the same as
last year,
