Stories That Recall Others.
The Wrong Disease.

A patient in poor health went to a doctor and explained his illness and also the fact that he wasn't able to pay for the professions services at once bHt would do so within a short time.

The patient said: @Well, doc, don't you know a was just talk ing to another physician and he told me you doctored me for the wrong thing, and I don't want to pay you for doctoring me for the wrong disease" :"

cHlLp,s WARDROBE

Among the warm weather fabrics that will be favored for the chiId's wardrobe may be mentioned heavy linen, gingham, especially striped and Scotch plaid weaves, natural colored pongee, and taffeta. Taffeta, of course, is designed for frocks of the 'dressy'' type, but the other materials are all washable and, therefore, in the utility class. For early spring, serge will play it's part. Some smart little models are shown equipped with detachable guimpes of white pique.

A ROUND TABLE EFFECT.


 There is new tablecloth for a square table that gives the effect of a round table. The design is circular, it's edge coming just about to the edge of an ordinary square dining table, and the pattern is clearly de- fined, leaving just the trianglar sec tions at the four corners of the table in plain unpatterened damask. Sam dlesticks may be set. in these plain corner sections, and the circular de- sign gives a round table effect. An other new pattern shows the table cloth well covered by an elaborate design which leaves a circle of plain damask in the center-lfke a center piece. And no extra centerpiece of embroidered linen or lace is neces- sary with this handsome cloth. h. deed it would spoil the effect.

CHICKS lM PRoFusIoN.

Checks are here in profusion, parti- cularly for little girls.
 Ginghams, checked and plaids in novel fashion are on display in the downtown .stores. In the ready to- wear departments many gingham mod els are now in. Cross stitch forms a pretty decoration on these youthful froks and is worked in Grec1an design.
 Stripes of varying width are in or soon to be here. Some interesting eff fleets are promised in self trimming these ginghams by developing the dresses with panels and bands of the material running in contrasting di- rection to the stripe sof the main garment.
 Plaids do not restrict their models to cotton goods only. They are com ing out in new materials, from the thickest to the thinnest, so that they will be worn by women and children both during the snowy season and on into the spring sports season, too. While ginghams offer a multitude of color combinations, including quaint models in pastel shades, the wool plaids restrict themselves to the pris- matic colors, using bright.

LATOUCHE BALL TEAM
 PLAYS HERE TOMORROW

Tomorrow afternoon at 3:3O o'clock the Latuoche ball team will be here and cross bats with the Cordova club. The visitors are now on their way here and as they have not been de- feated this season a snappy contest may be expected, as the Cordova boys have yet to meet an aggregation that can claim victory until after it has been won in a hard fought battle. The game is called late in order that those who desire to take advantage of the excursion to the glaciers can do so and be back before the umpire calls "Play ball"
 The lineup of the Latouche team will not be known until it's arrival here, too late for today's issue. The Cordovans will bat as follows: Fred erickson, 3b; Gilbert, 1b; Steele, c.; Koch, 2b; Peterson, ss.; Mckay or Mcdonald, lf. Watson, If; Taylor, cf.; Chambers, D.

COW TESTING
ASSN. FORMED

With provisions made for -four
testers, covering all parts of the val

will be formally launched next week,
according to Assistant Farm Advisor

One tester will be employed in the
Brawley district, this including the
Number Five country north of Holt,

Seeley and south, and the other two
the country lying between FL Cen
tro, Holtville and Calexico and the
eastside mesa.

one af the most severe handicaDs 4

Will b. the largest in the state.
