PLAY GARMENTS.
How the Rompsr and tho Jumper Have
Become Invaluable.

How the Rompsr and the Jumper Have
Become Invaluable.
Play garments In the sense in which
they are known in this country find no
place in the French collection. Such
practical affairs as the romper and the
jumper are American in origin and to q
very great degree In use also. Like
many styles that in the course Of time
are adopted by the Parisiennes. the
romper made it's French debut on the
American child. 1t can hardly be said
to have universal vogue. but nothing
has been advanced OF recent years that
has approached 1t for unitarian serv-
ice
Pinafores have been discarded by
most American mothers. but In certain
Of the foreign countries they retain
their old time vogue and are offered In
many interesting fabrics and styles.
The smock Of the working classes has
been taken as the model for latter day
aprons designed for children, and while
originally 1t was meant to wear over
the frock, 1t gradually was heightened.
the opening down the front became a
seam and the erstwhile pinafore was
graduated into the dress ranks for little
folk.
Many mothers In planning the ward
robes for their children buy an extra
quantity of material so that boomers
may be made to go with the washable
dresses This Is an excellent idea.
since 1t helps to reduce the laundry
bills.
In many instances the bloomers are
cut on circular lines. because this gives
more breadth and consequent ease to
the active small girl or boy. Moreover.
the extra fullness does away with the
necessity of petticoats, since the folds
Of the bloomer serve to hold out the
dress skirt
This year there are interesting
checks. plaids and stripes In washable
materials especially designed with ref.
erence to the dress wants of the
younger generation. The better quality
will wash without fear of running or of
shrinking in any marked degree. With
the shepherd checks In ginghams. lin
ems and cotton voiles are sometimes
combined plain linens In old blue. rose

y HE finish of the woodwork and
walls Of the house Is part OF
its permanent equipment which

plays an important role In its
general attractiveness and the ease
with which it can be taken care OF.
Woodwork Of the baseboards, doors,
window castings, etc., should be easy
to dust and wash. This means round
corners and no elaborate holdings.
Whether or not such surfaces should
be painted or stained and vanished
depends partly upon how good the
wood is and partly upon personal
taste. As general rule. vanished
woodwork Is easier to keep In order
than painted, but paint covers up poor
wood better and can be used In lighter
colors, point which Is often In Its
favor In rooms where there is INSULT
cient light or where light treat
ment in color and furnishings is de-
sired. Good enamel mixed with the
last coat Of paint prolongs its life and
makes 1t easier to clean.
For floors. paint Is less durable and
harder to clean than well finished
waxed varnish. but II the boards are
old and rough it would probably be
better to paint them. Carpets or
mattings tackled down close around the
Dashboard may be warmer in winter
than rugs which do not cover the whole
floor, but they are less desirable. be-
cause 1t is so difficult to take them
up and clean them. Not only must the
tacks be removed from the carpet, but
their larger size makes them more diff
cult to handle than rugs. For months
they remain full of dust and dirt which
flies into the air when they are walked
on, and for this reason they are very
insanitary. II floor is too bad for
ordinary rugs. 1t is better to paint 1t
and then lay down a carpet rug large
enough to cover all but the edges than
to tack carpet over the whole floor.
For the floors Of kitchens. bathrooms
and passageways which must be wash
ed frequently some material less alb
sorbent than wood is desirable. Cement
is sometimes used for back entries.

An Old Guidebook.

OF all the old guidebooks none Is
sought SO keenly by collectors as
some Of Murray's early guides. Per-
haps the most precious Of these as a
bibliographical curiosity is the first edi-
ton Of .Murray's Guide to Switzer-
land" published in 1888. Mountaineer-
ing as popular pastime was not then
invented, and In the section devoted to
Mont Blanc the author contemptuously
declares that 1T is a somewhat re-
markable fact that a large proportion
OF those who have made this ascent
have been persons of unsound mind"

On Prisoners of War.

With reference to the modern treat
ment of prisoners Of war, 1t is interest
ing to recall the views which r. L.
Stevenson In his novel, est. Ives" puts
into the mouth of q French prisoner of
war in Edinburgh castle, which was
turned into a military prison In the
time Of Napoleon. He says: There is
a horrible practice In England to trick
out In ridiculous uniform and, as 1t
were, to brand In mass, not only con-
victs, but military prisoners and even
the children In charity schools. l
think some malignant genius had
found his masterpiece Of irony In the
dress which we were condemned to
wear-jacket, waistcoat and trousers
Of a sulphur or mustard yellow and q
shirt of blue and white stripe cotton"

About twenty couples attended the
dance given by the young ladies in
Gibbs hall New Years Eve. The hall
was beautifully decorated for the oc-
casion and a light luncheon was SER
we'd during the evening. The affair was
strictly invitational and one of the
most enjoyable of the winter season.
Mr.. and Mrs. B. S. Wadsworth en-
tertained at cards New Years night
for number of their friends. Pro-
gressive five hundred was played dur
ing the evening after which delicious
luncheon was served by the hostess,
assisted by her daughter, Miss Beryl.
Those present were Mr.. and Mrs. F.
A. Friermood, Mr.. and Mrs. C. D..
Mitchell, Mr.. and Mrs. Harry Miller,
in addition to the host and hostess and
daughter Beryl.
On account of ice in the river the
boat service has had to be discontinued
for the present and the mail is being
brought up by automobile and does
not arrive until about 1870. The Sc
we're cold weather has caused such
thick, ice to form on all the small
bodies of water in the district that
skating is now the most popular form
OF amusement and all the young peo-
pie are certainly enjoying this exhil-
irating sport to its full capacity.
Mr.. and Mrs. C. D. Mitchell enter
tanned at delightful dinner on New
Years Day. Everything one could
imagine in the way of "good eats"
was served by the hostess, covers be-
ing laid for Misses Zada Roe, Juanita
Hamilton, Mr.. c. A. Smith, Mrs. Ar
mold, Mr.. and Mrs. R. D. Sawyer and
son James, Messrs. Hamilton and
Gene Mitchell, Dorothy Arnold in adj
dition to the host and hostess and the
immediate family.
Next Monday evening the newly
elected city council will hold it's in
itial meeting. AS this is the first time
in the history of Richland that wo-
man has been member of the board
of aldermen it is expected that good
ly number of citizens will turn out
to witness the innovation and from
past experience we are free to state
that there seems little reason to doubt
that Mrs. C. D. Hopper will make a
most able addition to the board of city
fathers.
There was quite an exodus from
Richland the latter part of the week
when all the young folks who have
been home for the holidays departed
for their various schools and fields of
labor. Miss Beryl Wadsworth re-
turned to Pullman as did also Bowen
Van Horn. Bill and julius Hopp and
Clarence Yedica went to Whitman;
Miss Edna Zimmerman left for Ell
lensburg to re-enter school as did Miss
Eva Chellis. Misses Beth and Esther
Van Horn and Miss Edith Fisher left
for their schools to resume their teach
ing duties.

How to Make the Summer Bungalow
Look Cool and Dainty.

Look Cool and Dainty.
Dainty hangings Of printed cotton In
the cool combination of blue and white
have long been a favorite selection for
the summer bungalow or cottage, and
long has been felt the need Of rug
that would carry out this cool color
scheme. A shop which makes special

exhibition rugs Of various sizes In a

evidently they are made on the same
looms.

DEMPSY- DARNELL
BOUT CONCLUDED
IN THIRD ROUND
DARNELL SENT DOWN AND IN
FALLING STRUCK HIS HEAD
HARD BLOW ON THE FLOOR,
CAUSING HIM TO RETIRE.

A large crowd had gathered last
night at the Business Mems Athletic
Club and witnessed the sparring
matches arranged for the occasion.
The main bout of ten rounds was
between Jimmy Dempsy Of Pensacola,
and Eddie Darnell Of Hot Springs. A
blow by Dempsy in the third round
sent Darnell down, and in falling he
struck his head on the floor which
caused him to retire at this round.
The entertainment opened with a
sparring exhibition between two ne
groes which lasted only one round.
Greenblatt and Mirabella then af-
forded amusement with a three-round
preliminary which seemed to interest
the spectators at all stages.
"Curly" Cohron and "Kid" Troy
were next with a four-round bout.
Cohron showed his usual speed and
cleverness which is we'll known to
Pensacola fight fans, and he proved
too much for Troy, the bout being
stopped in the second round.
All bouts were refereed by Mr..
Griffin, of Scheesley's Athletic Show.
In addition to the above, glove con-
tests an exhibition Of acrobatic skill
by the Derrill family was enjoyed. In
this act. a twelve-year-old girl aero
bat was featured.

STRANGER

A True Story for You.

It is with mingled feeling of horror and pity that a healthy man or wo- man hears or speaks of Epilepsy and it's victims. How much greater the torture, mentally and bodily, of ac- tual sufferers from Epileptic attacks can only be imagined.
 Convulsions, loss of consciousness, terrible falls, etc, are bad enough in themselves, to be, and are dreadful afflictions, but the humiliation of publicity that so often accompanies these attacks causes as much mental as physical torture. The Guthrie Drug Go. of Prescott, have finally secured a fully guaranteed remedy for Epi- lepsy. Hays Specific" the great system tonic has such cures as this to prove its merit.
 Dear Sirs:-ln answer to your re- quest for statement of my case, l will say that had Epilepsy, or Fits, since I was four years old. One bottle of your medicine stopped them. passed twenty-five worms. l can recommend it to any one afflicted with Epilepsy. Yours truly,
