The holly, however, is not so high

the mistletoe, which is rare, delicate
and beautiful and the source of many
ancient Druidic legends. In the Unit

the southern states. while that used
in England is chiefly produced in the
orchards Of Normandy. 1t is also the
state flower Of Oklahoma.

Orange Blossoms and Brides.

Various theories have been given
regarding the use of orange blossoms
as bridal ornaments. The Gus
tom is supposed to have been brought
to Europe by the Crusaders from the
East, the Saracen brides being accus-
toned to wear orange wreaths at
their marriage. To this objection was
raised that although the orange tree
was brought TO England as early as
1890, 1t was long before there was
any real cultivation of 1t even In
greenhouses. A second theory Is that
orange blossoms came to be worn by
brides on their marriage because they
were not only scented but also were
rare and costly, and so within the
reach of only the noble and rich, that
Indicating the bride had to be Of high
rank. A third is that orange bridal
wreaths had their origin in Spain.
where oranges have been cultivated
for centuries. Thence the fashion
passed to France, and by means Of
French millinery was spread to other

Congestion-senate Adopts Reso-

Steps to Reduce Traffic Jam.

Observation-Disclosures use OF a
part of the governments revolving
fund for the purchase OF rail equip
ment, was suggested to the Interstate
Commerce commission By the Asscc!a-
ton of Railway Executives to aid In
relieving the present accute freight
congestion. At the same time, the
Senate adopted a resolution by Sen
ator Reed, Missouri, calling upon the
commission for information as to what
steps 1t had taken toward breaking the
traffic jam.
The executives recommended that
$125, 900. 900 be set aside for purchase
of equipment, especially cars to meet
the insistent demands of freight. Each
road would be asked for a statement
of equipment needs and loans appor-
toned pro rata. The executives urged
the commission to act at its earliest
opportunity because of the car short
age.
Program Outlined.
The executives offered also the fol-
lowing program for disposition of the
remainder of the $500, 900, 600:
A temporary reserve for judgments
and claims against the Railroad admin.

Appropriation for the short line rail-
roads, $12,0 00. 900.

tions, $50, 900, 600.
Appropriation for additions and bet
terments which will promote the
movement of cars, $4,000 600.
II maturing obligations of the vari-
Gus roads do not require full use of
the $50, 900 set aside for that pur-
pose, the remainder should be turned
into the fund for the purchase of
equipment, it was added.

with plaits. Both wool and silk fab
ricS are TO be reckoned with in the
fall styles, and all sorts of plaitings.
A new fall model In striped wooden
goods has recently made its debut and
is shown In the picture above. Many
ready-made skirts employ accordion
plaitS, that are liked because they take
less material than other plaits and
prove as effective. as may be gathered
from the model in the picture. The
plated skirt is easy TO make at home.
One has only to buy material twice
the length of the skirt plus the width
of the hem, with sometimes a little
additional allowance for matching
the stripes or plaids. The goods is
cut i'm two lengths, sewed up and the
hem put in. Then it is taken TO the
professional TO plat in plating ma
chine, or one can do this work at home.
The plaits must be very thoroughly
pressed down.
When stripes running on the dag
onal are wanted, the making is less
simple, but even then presents no very
great difficulties.
