rrast1ng color. me uors are very small and close together.
 English sateens are now used ex tensfvely by smart dressers. Frocks of the plain colored sateens were seer early last summer among the collec tions of clothes at exclusive dress makers, but they were not adopted to any extent, being looked upon as @ novelty. This spring will see any mum Der of dresses made of English sateens It is not, however, the plain colored sateen that is most prominent, al though this is used to some extent Printed sateens in designs very mucf like the English prints are smarter.
 When we see pretty model devel- oped in this material, which has the appearance of foulard, we wonder how we could have ignored it in times when cottons had not come into the promi- hence that they are enjoying just now.
 Pretty Models for Little Girls.
 Designers of children's clothes have seized upon these English sateens to work out some interesting play clothes. There are any number of pretty mod els for little girls made of the figured sateeen in combination with white or gandie, the organdie being used for collars and cuffs as well as for sash es and belts. Some straight-line sa- teen frocks for tiny girls are smocked in blending colors and have sashes of white organdie; others have interest ing stitchings of colored worsteds.
 One jumper dress of printed sateen in soft green shade is worked with black yarn around the neck, cap sleeves and belt, blanket stitch be- ing used. For tiny tots there are amusing play clothes of pink and light blue sateens without a design. These are made just like smocks and worked in worsteds. On the pockets are em- broidered Kate Greenaway-~f1gures. Mothers may not care to dress their children regularly in clothes of this sort, but they are most amusing as play aprons for the nursery.
 Flounces and frills have brought about a great use of net, which is most popular at time when fluffy dresses are worn. Dressmakers are reveling in its use and everybody is wearing it. A great deal may be ex- pressed through net, depending upon the colors chosen and the method of handling it. An older woman may wear with great dignity a black net dress, beautifully draped, while for a debutante bright, billowy, tulle frock may be extremely informal
 Among the more elaborate black tulle frocks are some lavishly embroid- cred in crystal and silver beads A

NICE SETS PACE l FOR CHIC- GOWNS
 Opening of Race Course Brings Out Generous Showing of Lovely Clothes.
RICH DISPLAY OF NEW HATS
Celiophane or Vanished BraIds Score Sig Success; Veil-Trimmed Models Attractive; Turbans in crlnkIed
 Braid Are in Evidence.

The opening of the race cofIrse at Nice and the presence of many prom. fnent visitors, among whom the Amer. ican contingent did not lack full repre- sentatfon, mean brilliant social sea- son, which in turn signifies an as- semblage of lovely clothes, writes a prominent fashion correspondent.
 oInan wUnuer, then, InaG nere Inls social season should open with un- wOnted brilliancy. Many women wore their long sable mantles but left them swinging open to show their charming new frocks in bright or dull hued silks. These fur mantles are still being worn on the Riviera, because after four in the afternoon cold wind springs up, and if one is driving In an. open car or standing about 1t is absolutely nec- essary to have a warm wrap.
 Several new cloth coats were seen. A beautiful color effect is carried out in the loose. wrappy coat of putty gray burella worn over a bright tartan silk in which red, black and white are blended. The coat when thrown open reveals lining of the same silk as that used for the frock The bright color is again introduced through pipings of red patent leather, which appear on the pockets, sleeve trim ming and about the collar.
 Two Shades of Tan.
 By using two shades of tan for the second topcoat, one coppery and the other a fawn tone, an entirely new effect is obtained. The cloth selected for this model is duvetyn, the copper color being used for the coat itself while the fawn shade makes a stand ing collar which is set inside the roll ing shawl collar of copper coIored cloth, while the turnback cuffs over the very loose sleeves are of the light CT toned material. The coat is lined with pale fawn shade and the frock worn with it is of fawn duvetyn, like that which trims the coat.
 Daring evening Costume at Nice.
 One of the most daring evening costumes worn at Nice is developed in black satin, with hollow jet balls out lining the hooplike extensions. The bretelle-like bodice of white tulle has a delicate lattice of jet spotted with large Jet disks. The Spanish atmos- phere of this striking toilette is fur ther accentuated by high comb of

USE OF COLOR IN THE HOME
Tints Attractive in Clothes Are Not to Be Spurned for Interior
 Decoration.

The average woman fails to realize how color alters the appearance of her home. Indeed, she is almost afraid to use it except in a few set schemes of the crudest sort. Though in her dress, in her embroidery, in the hat she is trimming, she may use it freely and often with originality, yet in her house decoration she Is too timid to attempt any but the most common place arrangements.
 The high cost of labor and the dis comfort of the necessary domestic up- heavals may be partly accountable but perhaps now that she has learned how to paper a room and is not afraid of a paint brush she will not be dis couraged from experimenting.

Elaborate Hair Ornaments.

Spanish combs are more than ever favored. They are built quite high. with elaborate designs of iridescent stones. All kinds of pins and orna- ments for the hair will be worn and the barrette will again be favored.

A PURELY BUSINESS TRANSACTION

The Douglas Dispatch has set up of it's charac terisc 'howls" against the removal of the dangerous rock points the Bsbee Tombstone highway. Not be- ing cognzan of the embraced in this contemplated work, the editorial writer of the Dispatch fit to dict calamity toward the completion of the Befnardino Rodeo link of the Borderand and has assumed that the money appropriated toward this work IS about to be 'ifed by the supervisors and applied to the blasting of the points of the Tombstone road The whole matter down to the fact that the editorial writer of the Dispatch. in his eageness to set up ''hOwl against Bisbee and Tombstone did not take time to in vestigate or attempt to learn the facts.
 The state highway department, after receipt of nu, merous requests from the Warren District Commercial club for the removal these dangerous rock points the Bsbee Tombstone highway offered Cochise county the of state equipment and blasting powder to blow out these cuts.
 The offer was made the board of supervisors and their meeting of May 17th the following action rec erded in the minutes of the board. was taken:
 "A communication was read from the Arizona
 Highway Department relative to the removal ot the
 objectionable rock points the Blsbee-Tombstone

 and passed to instruct the state engineer that what
 ever arrangements he and County Engineer Sid
 Smyth made jointly would be satisfactory the

 County Engineer Smyth at once arranged for the use of the state machinery which will be idle within short time and the funds necessary, explained by Mr. Smyt will be taken from the fund now held idle for the completion of the Bernardno odeo link of the Border land This money be used this link before the first of July as it is impossible begin work that piece of road prior that date Therefore, this money is idle and County Engineer Smyth proposes to borrow the needed amount for the work the Bisbee-Tomb- narino- Rodeo fund on July first The action taken is merely using idle funds and is pure business transac ton. and a comnendable one.

A PLAIN CITIZEN INVESTIGATES

A Santa Ana, California newspaper man, having heard tales of varying prices for Liberty BOnds decided to investigate He took $1OO third issue 12 per cent bond and offered for sale at bank There he of fered the list price in that days quotation which $9O17 The bank would also redeem the attached inter- coupons tOtaling $786, making the entire Of $98.03.
 Since his quest purely for information, he re- fused this Ofer and next presented his bond to we'll known legitimate brokerage firm dealing in such secur ties It made the offer the bank with fee of fifty cents for handling
 Next the investigator visited cigar store which dis played price quotation board ill its window, but the proprietor would give only $9657 for the bond with its interest coupons Thence the quest went on down the line of small dealers and pawnbrOkers the prices offered gradually diminishing the lowest being $83 which the pawnbroker claimed about the current quota tion though it in reality SLY less than the list price for the bond without coupons Having learned what he wanted know the nqusitive soul went home and put his bond away, safely.
 These figures and this experience might be dupli- cated in almost any community, and amply prove the wisdom of the advice offered by federal bank official: Se Liberty Bonds only necessary and then deal only with banks or legitimate brokerage concerns"

 ''We taxed twice much by ideness three times much by prde and four times much by folly; and from these taxes the commissioners not ease or deliver Us, by allowing an abatement.

DOLLARS VS. CHILDREN

Women who apeared before the Senate Public Health Committee at Washington in behalf of the Shep national congress approprates millions to raise better hogs and nothing to improve the conditions of children
 Some of them ventured that the fathers and hus- bands in congress had been hOughtess that the they had sought to raise better hogs to provide food for the children They said they thought the gressmens hearts right but they had simply erred few of the women not so charitable with the solons.
 There are two answers to the women's queries. One is men representing dollars have always maintained powerful lObbes in Washington to look after their inter ests The national congress is hOneycOmbed with the agents of special privilege and legislation that has made it possible for big business to make profits have always met with greater The children and the women, who interested in the children have main- tained no paid Hobbies at the capital
 The other is, women and children heretofore have had voice in the government Farmers have that is, the Congress has always felt the need of appro- prating money to raise better animals to get the votes of the farmers.
