DISTINCTION OF THE
MODEST VIOLET STAMP

| The three-cent purple stamp which
all efficient persons will now affix TX
out-of-town letters in order to con.
serve the motion lost in sticking or
more than one paster, and which the
aesthetic will use so as to avoid the
horrid clash between red two-cent anC
green one-cent stamps is not new
design. Modest as the violet from
which its hue is taken, it had been
among the wall flower stamps until
| Mars called it forth to join the dance
of the, taxes.
The purple three-cent stamp deep
violet, the stamp collectors call it
was first issued in 1902, with Jack
sons head on it, says the New York
Sun. We saw it occasionally in our
mail, for there was young poetess Of
considerable distinction with whom
violet was passion. When she sent
us a sonnet about the first violet Of
early spring it was written on violet
paper slightly scented with violets and
the stamp that brought the violet en-
yelope to our grateful desk was vio-
let stamp with Andy's head on it. The
Young woman even inclosed a three
cent stamp for the possible return Of
the poem, pocketing a gross unneces-
sary loss Of 2 cents on the entire trans
action for the sake Of violetism. Nine
years ago Jackscn's head was succeed
ed by Washington's on the three-cent
stamp, but the color remained the
same.
Only persons over 40 remember the
three-cent stamp. as the accompani-
ment, of everyday mail. Three-cent
postage came in ten years before the
civil war. First it carried a half
ounce letter 5000 miles or less. In
1868 the element of distance was abol-
ished to the extent that cents would
carry a letter to any part Of the u.
s. Twenty years later the rate was
reduced to 2 cents for each half ounce.
The three-cent stannp then in use was
a blue-green, with Washington's head,
but was succeeded in general use by a
two-cent red and brown stanp. which
also bore the kindly face of the first
president. After four years in 1887. !
the color was changed to green, but
the design remained the same.
Some may object to the deep violet
stamp as too gloomy, but Georges
face takes r'ost of the despondencv
out of it. There could be worse col
ors, as the postoffice department has
frequently proved in its variations of
reds and greens. The important
thing is to remember that the three |
cent stamp is the order of the dav.
Cast not your two-cent stamped let
ters upon the out-of-town mails. lest
they return to you after many days.

coming. Trim they are, too, and very
fetching, worn at the right angle, with
the proper amount Of coquetry, but
woe to the unwilling dansel with the
high pompadour who perches a Tip
perary hat on the tip-top of her hair! !!
The result is ridiculous.
Oriental Influences
There are reports OF other sources
for styles than Paris. The Orient, with
it's bewildering array of things mys-
teriously beautiful, sends us rare color
combinations unusual embroiderieS
and hand-woven materials that are
not made elsewhere. One famous
house here in New York has sent it's
buyers to China, Japan and India in
stead of to Paris, and we can look for
some very interesting developments
along fashion lines. Of course, now we
have the mandarin coat, and other
Chinese and Japanese garments occi-
dentalized for our benefit. There
seems to be wave of color worship
going broadcast over the land, and
everywhere one hears the remark, "I
don't care how simple it is, or how
little trimming you put on it, If you
will just make it beautiful of line and
color" After all, that is the true beau
ty in dress, as in everything else.
Charm in Simplicity
Just suggestion for the everyday
dress, the dress you must wear for
"work or play" is Illustrated here. The
lines are very good. The high rolling
collar and long tight sleeves bespeak
a businesslike attitude. Of course
there are buttons, giving a smart dou-
ble-breasted effect, and the arrange
ment of the belt is most unusual. Her
hat belongs to the times, for it is an
aviator's cap, made of the same ma
terial as the dress.

Boise Clocks May Be Set Forward
One Hour In the Summer Months

Shall Boise set the clock forward one
hour for the late spring. summer and
early fall months, thereby joining in

which is being agitated over the coun-
try?
A number of Boise merchants and
professional men believe that the step
should be taken, thereby putting Boise
in line with many other cities in the
United States which plan to get more
out of the longer days than they have
in the past. They hope to be able to
get under way a movement in Boise

following a conference, issue a proc

of the senate and a conference had
been held on the workmens compensa-

reached and the only possible grounds
in sight was the third PLAN" or cas-

When Representative Bates offered
the following motion a heated debate
took place, the motion finally being
adopted as further instructions to the
house committee in its future confer
ence with the senate committee, by a
vote of 81 to 2s, the Democrats and
Republicans voting solidly with the ex-
ception of Hubbard of Ada, Republi-
can, who voted with the Democrats.
BATES MOTION.
81 move that the special workmen's
compensation committee be instructed
to convey to the joint conference COM
mittee of the house and senate the
following statement of the houses po-
sition in this matter and direct that
the same be transmitted to the senate:
This house has made two honest and
determined efforts to enact a satisfac-
tory compensation law for the state Of
Idaho, the first in house bill No. 81,
which was by the senate indefinitely
postponed; the second by amendments
to senate bill No. 40. in which the
senate refuses to concur.
From the communications Of the
Joint conference committee and from
the acts themselves of the senate, 1t
becomes apparent that the senate's first
requirement in the matter is that any
plan adopted shall permit casualty in
surance companies TO do business in
the state under the act.
