coming a fad is the little Chinese sweater made of the new embroidered silk jersey tissue. They can scarcely be called sweaters but are long blouses rather or the mandarin order. They are very loose and slip on over the head The tissue is woven with the little punches of Chinese flowers all over it and band down one side to carry out the Chinese effect. The border also carries out the mandarin effect The blouse is worn with broad loose belt embroidered in Chi nese design.
 This same embroidered tricot fabric also makes beautiful negligees of the kimono design. The black embroidered in blue and green and lined with blue panne makes a smart limOno. It is also made effectively into little house capes lined with soft velvet.

Wear Bracelets Above the Elbow.

Wear Bracelets Above the Elbow.
 The sleeveless dresses have brought another fad to the front recently, that of wearing bracelets above the elbow. One never sees bare arm now with out the handsomest of jeweled brace lets always above the elbow and al- most as high as the shoulder. The fad was started about a year ago when Parisians commenced to wear jade assd onyx and all sorts of queer com position bracelets to bring good luck. As they became more popular and more of the sleeveless dresses ap- peared, the variety of bracelets grew and now the jeweled ones are the rage.
 Last summer at Deauville a Pari-

sienne appeared with thirty-fve dia- mOnd bracelets on one arm. They ware all worn above the elbow, and, sleaEss or no sleeves, and night and day,v6he was never without her brace lets. It is an exceedingly pretty style when it is not OverdOne, especially for a woman who has reached the age when her arm might not be as beauti- full as it once was. It is nice for the jewellers, too for they are put to their wits end to find new devices to meet the great onrush for spending money. The newly rich invariably buy jewels and they have been coming on at such &pace recently and have bought the usual rings, necklaces, crowns etc., and are still looking for something more. so the new design in the above the-elbow bracelet pleases their fancy. It breaks the startling nakedness of an arm that might be ugly if it does not go to the other extreme by being wonderfully beautiful. It is a pity that something of the sort could not be invented for the backless dresses, TOT IL IS dlIldZllS to uUl6 uOW NCly ICw women have really beautiful backs and arms.
 Neil Inclined to Be Overdone.
 The veil is another accessory that has held sway for long time and is now inclined to be overdone. The modistes have been showing the most beautiful veils for the last year. The majority of the hats have no trimming on them whatsoever but are worn with a handsome veil.
 Lewis showed some smart Spanish veils in the early autumn that are now being worn everywhere. They are huge squares in the handsome Spanish laces of a rather heavy design which are simply thrown over the hat and left to fall loosely on the shoulders.
 Many of the evening hats, tulle tur- bans, have lace wells attached to them in long streamers hanging over one shoulder, The fad for veils of all de- scriptions amounts to craze and the queer part of it is that the very few est of them are ever worn over the face.
 Another smart accessory that is be-

Curioua Clubs.

The recent announcement that an
English "Bald-Headed Mems club" had
lust met-the first time since 1916,
owing TO the war-serves to recall one
or two odd clubs.
"The Fat Mans club" for instance.
was known to exist In Paris in 1897.
Its heaviest member turned the scale
at 336 pounds and the chief qualifiea-
ton for membership was to weigh at
least DO pounds.
About this time there also met In
New York the Society of the Pointed
Beards'-a most exclusive club. No
one was eligible unless he had a care
fully cultivated beard of natural
growth and terminating In one SYM
metrical point half an inch from the
apex of the chin.
At two club dinners In 1898 even the
celery was served with Its leaves
trimmed to a point.

AMERICAN LEGION MEN ARE
NOT EXEMPT FROM POLL TAX

Members of the American Legion
are not exempt from paying an an
nual poll tax of two dollars, despite
statutory provisions seeking to alb
solve them from such payment, under
an opinion filed with Governor Boyle
by Leonard Fowler, attorney-general,
says the Reno Gazette. The attorney
general holds that the payment of
poll taxes is a constitutional require
ment and to make any exemptions,
other than those of age limit and
that extended to ~uncivilized Ameri-
can Indians. would be unconstitu-
tional. The remedy, the attorney
general says, is to amend the consti-
tuition. in case it is desired to exempt
service men. The attorney-general's
opinion was given in response to a
request from Governor Boyle, with
whom representatives of the Ameri-
can Legion had discussed the
question.

EIGHTY-TWO CENTS AN OUNCE
FOR SILVER AT CARSON

Eleven hundred pounds of bar sill
yer has been brought to the govern
ment assay Office at Carson City by
Charles Lecamp. superintendent of
the Como Consolidated mine. at Co
mo. and the best price offered for ii
was eighty-two cents an ounce, says
the i;eno Gazette.
Lec:mp asked for one dollar an
ounce under the terms of the Pitt
man act. but was informed by Will
liam Burns. superintendent of the as
say Office, that he had no authority
to pay more than the market price
for the metal. He advised Lecamp
to ship the ore to the. mint at San
Francisco. This Leeamp did. Burns
told him that he probably could get
more than the market price for 1t
at the mint. Lecamp has received no
returns from the mint.
1t was the largest consignment of
metal to be brought to the Carson
Office in years. Lecamp brought it in
by automobile, lugged it up the assay
steps. weighed it and then logged il
back to the express Office when he
could not get a satisfactory price.

T0NOPAH BONANZA BEGAN
TWENTIETH YEAR TUESDAY

Last Tuesday was the nineteenth
anniversary OF the birth of the To

the young camp of Tonopah was lit
tie known and the boosters depend
ing on Jim Buffers discovery on the
slope of what later became known
as Mount eddie, felt that the camp
was not getting its share of pub
licity and therefore prevailed upon
w. w. Booth to fill the aching void
with a five column folio kicked of
on a job press. The paper vas hailed
with delight when it appeared on
Saturday, June Is. 1901, with one
hundred words of Statutory" couched
in language that could not be mis-
taken. Our policy will be for the
best of the country. That the paper
will meet with public favor is left
to the opinion of the reader and ad-
vertiser. We have done our best
The selling price was ten cents and
the entire issue was disposed of faster
than 1t could be printed at the rate
of twenty-five cents a copy. Mrs. Jim
Butler still treasures the first copy
OF the Bonanza. which was presented
her by Mr.. w. w. Booth.

words that appear on the foot OF
the monument TO the author recently
erected at Zwolle. In a gentle. spot,
surrounded by ancient oaks and frs
and with shrubbery around, this mon.

presented for the purpose by the van
Royen family. The monument Is IN
the shape Of a cross with the mono
gram Of Christ and the symbols OF the
four evangelists. The inscription on
the main part is "In Cruce Calus."
Many subscriptions were received for
the monument as soon as the plan was
suggested in 1916. Queen WilhelInina
was among those who gave.
