Mark Twain went to Virginia City
from Aurora in the fall of 1868, arriv-
ing there quite grim and dusty, with
his pants in his bootlegs, l mean the
lower ends. No one knows how much
of the way he walked, but it must have
been a good deal. On the way he
stopped at Reed station, about eight
miles northeasterly from Dayton. All
who have read his "Rorghing It. will
remember his description of how the
proprietor heated his barroom stove,
that is, with lighted candle inside
that shone through isenglass, while
there was plenty of dead limb wood
within hundred yards OF the place.
Well, that old station structure burned
to the ground on the 3rd of December,
and the Nevada Historical Society
never even got its picture took"
The place was first known as "Bud' S
Station but George Reed and Katl-
crime Reed appear to hold the first
record title and they conveyed it to

Treasurer from 1879 to 1882, Crockett
sold to Martin Cooney and he subse-
quently conveyed it TO CardeIli Broth
ers and Tanrredi Cardelli is the pres

A. EARLY every necessity and all of
IN the luxurles OF the layette prove
fascinating work when the time comes
to make them. Women delight in fash
ioning pretty, diminutlve belongings
for the baby, especially If they may
be made of fine or luxurious materials,
and It seems they are turning more
and more to ribbons. There is such a
long list of things for the layette that
are made of ribbons these days that 1t
seems as If ingenious and prolific
minds somewhere must be busy all
the time thinking only Of two things
layettes and ribbons.
Just a few of the new articles de-
signed in ribbons are shown here, but
they include such gifts as friends like
to make. In addition there are many
small bags, ribbon-lined baskets, pin
cushions, bootees, sleeve and sock gar
ters, bows for the carriage robe and
small bows and rosettes to deck out
little dresses. Each Of these, as well
as the articles pictured, are made in
many different ways.
Little bootees of ribbon bid fair to
usurp the place of the knitted or
crocheted boot and they are provided
with bootee cases, also made of rib
non. One OF these Is shown at the top
of the picture. 1t is simply an en-
