Never have there been prettier small patterns in cotton than are found this year, nor are they expensive, since they are found in every material from 25 cent dimities to $2 and $3 embroidered chiffons. Canton crapes in tiny flower designs, voiles of. various prices and even our old favorite, dotted swiss and polka dotted mousselines, may all be used for dainty little frocks, of which every one needs two or three, whether one remains at home or goes away for the hot season.

The other day his father was reprimanding him for some misdeed, and Willy was an swering very saucily. The father be came very angry and. seizing the youngster by the collar, said: "Set here,' young man, you must not talk like that to me. I never gave my fa ther impudence when I was a boy."

'One peculiarity of melancholia," said a specialist, "is that the victim of it actually enjoys the despondency and often doesn't want to be cured.

I*' 1*9, That all Iowa should be proud of Iowa's part in the Panama-Pacific exposition is the view of Senator A. B. Cummins, just returned from a tour of Hawaii and the western coast. No Iowa man appreciates more fully his wonderful state than does the senior senator. That he was pleased and is greatly appreciative, may b® learned from his testimony printed in the Register and Leader, as follows: "I want to say," he volunteered, "that the San Francisco fair is .worth the long trip out there. It is wonderful. And I congratulate Iowa upon her representatives out there. Wil bur Marsh, as chairman of the Iowa board, and Woodworth Clum, as secretary, have done more than I ever dreamed they could do on the small amount of money they have to ex pend. Iowa is in the front rank of the states represented. Marsh is the most popular man about the fair. He is sought by everybody, and liked by everybody. Clum is an ideal sec retary, efficient, alert and capable in every way. Together, they have written Idwa's name at the head of the list. The exhibit of Iowa corn is worth a trip across the continent and it will, no doubt, be given a place high in the list of awards, Nothing less than genius conceived-it." Further testimony comes from the exposition officials: "Iowa was awarded today the grand prize for the state agricultural exhibit at the Pan ama-Pacific Exposition, and all but four of 289 individual exhibits of Iowa received or hon orable mention for agricultural exhibits. "Individual exhibitors were awarded two medals of honor, thirteen gold medals, 161 bronze medals and 24 honorable mentions." The news coming from the Panama-Pacific Exposi tion that Iowa has been signally honored—or rather that Iowa has honored herself—bv being given recogni tion, in the agricultural class, over all exhibitors, will be received with gratification by all Iowa people. This testimony of the greatness of Iowa, fyeralded to the world, sh"ould be sufficient to convince us that the men who insisted that Iowa make a suitable showing at the exposition have done the state a most excellent service and that they are deserving of all Iowa's praise—es pecially so, as they proceeded with their work in the face of great difficulties. It is hoped from this success will result a broader view in Iowa of all things designed to place the state in a favorable light before the country and the world. What it means to Iowa, and especially to the Iowa farmer, to have it known broadcast over the world that Iowa is the peer of all agriculturally—which means that Iowa is the brightest spot in the world—can with out much thought be reasoned..out. For the. farmer it means not only a boost for Iowa land, but it means placing him before the world at the top of agricultur alists. To be known as the state of the most fruitful soil and most prosperity, means much to every person having any interest in Iowa. The Greater Iowa association is composed of men who all along have recognized the greatness of ,Iowa: It has taken a lot of I their time, and a vast amount of mental and physical energy, but they, have succeeded in convincing the skeptics and standpatters of their own state, as well as the world, that Iowa is deserving of all they have claimed for her-—and in the great cause for the good of Iowa alone, they will feel satisfaction in the reward that has so fax come to the state by reason of their unselfish efforts, directed in seeing that their state gets its due before the world. Truly it is remarkable that of 289 invidual exhibits all but four received prizes or honorable mention.
