The earliness of Easter this year le.ads lis to forcibly remind you that
your Easter needs should be supplied at once and here. The coming week
we make an advance display of garments and accessories especially suit
able for Easter. This will be by far the most complete showing of ready-to-wear
garments and dress accessories to be seen in El Paso. It is impossible
to describe in detajl what comprises the showing but we believe the follow
ing brief outline will give you a fair idea.
In tailored Suits the white serges and white striped effects will find
favor, and these will be shown next week in an unusually large range of
styles. Suits of panamas, wide wales and Erench serges will be found iu
the advance Easter display in black and all the spring colors in plain and
shadow stripes; all the new coat lengths, satin lined, some with inlaid
fancy satin collar. In addition to wool suits, a particularly attractive dis
play will be made next week of linen coat suits.
In Silk Dresses the showing comprises pongee, taffeta and rajah as well as
chiffon dresses. These are seen in the new one-piece styles as well as the cele
brated two-piece Sussian Romanoff -style, which is proving one of the most accept
able of the season.
Lingerie and Linen Dresses bear a most important part in the Easter 'dis
play, Stjdes were never so beautiful, and our showing was never so complete.
Oostumes and Goats, especially adapted for evening and dress occasions, are
not to be overlooked. In addition to the silks and light weight woolens, special
attention is called to a line of hand embroidered white -linen two-piece dresses,
which are by far the handsomest garments ever shown locally.
Separate skirts, for both dress and street wear, will be especially displayed
next week. White serge skirts, for wear with dainty lingerie waists, are also
specially featured.
The Waist Section! Mere words fail to convey an idea of what this section
contains this season. In fact, the waist display alone is well worth a visit here.
Dress accessories. The displays of iSTeckwear, Gloves, Hose, Veils and Veil
ing, Belts, Bags and Jewelry are in keeping with the garment displays.

IsTew Law Granting Leaves
of Absence Received at
Las Graces Office.
Las Cruces, N. M., Feb. 26. The
United States land office at Las Cruces
was today officially advised by the
general land office at Washington of
the law passed by congress Jan. 28,
1910, which affects in an important way
all homesteaders in New Mexico,
This law, which is applicable only in
the states of North Dakota, South Da
kota, Idaho, Minesota, Montana, Ne
braska, Colorado, Wyoming and New
Mexico, provides:
(a) All homestead entrymen or set
tlers are granted a leave of absence
for three months beglning Jan. 28, 1910.
(b) All homestead entrymen who
made application to enter after June
1, 1909, are allowed until May 15, 1910,
to establish residence on their claims.
Cc) All declarents who made sol
dier's declaratory statements after June
1, 1909, are given until May 15, 1910,
in which to make homestead applica
tion and establish residence on the land.
(d) It is especially provided that the
law will not be held to defeat the ad
verse claim of anyone making entry
over a soldier's declaartory statement
who prior to Jan. 28, 1910, had estab
lished a bona fide residence on the land
entered.
(e) It J also especially provided in
this law that the period of commutation
or of actual residence under the home
stead law, shall not be shortened. Ea
trynien who have taken advantage of
this extension cannot submit commu
tation proof until they have maintain
ed substantially (continuous residence
for 14 months from the date residence
was established; and to make five year
proof on a homestead entry, entrymen
cannot claim credit tor constructive res
idence for more than tne usual six
months prior to the date actual resi
dence was established. This means that
any entrymen -who take advantage of
the three months leave of absence
granted under this law, cannot claim
credit for residence during the time
ithey are absent under such leave, the
period of their absence being elimina
ted from consideration in cases of both
final and "commutation proof.
While the instructions received by the
local land office In regard to this law
do not contain a complete interpretation
of the law, the register and receiver
are of the opinion and will hold that no
contest affidavits against a homestead
entryman where the charge is abandon
ment can be brought or filed during
the period beginning Jan. 28, 1910, and
ending Oct. 28, 1910, which ycovers nine
months. As a contest cannot be
brought against a homestead entryman
who is absent from his claim under a
leave of absence, or until six months
after the expiration of the leave of ab
sence, this will make It Oct. 28, 1910,
before anj' new contests against home
stead entrymen can be brought in the
territory of New Mexico on a charge
of abandonment. m j
No Longer Necessary to
Send Patients to he East.
A Big Boon for the Entire
Southwest.
As the geographical center of the
southwest, El Paso is an ideal location
for a hospital for the care of cases
requiring special attention. The same
arguments which have been advanced
in favor of educational institutions in
El Paso applies with even greater logic
to the hospital situation in the south
west. Greater because it is often urg
ently necessary for a patient to receive
special treatment at onde treatment
which cannot be postponed until the pa
tient is sent to Chicago or the east.
Physicians interested in the special
fields of medicine, realizing the" need
for a hospital in El Paso for the treat
ment of special diseases of the eye, ear,
nose, and throat, have supplied this
need by erecting and equipping just
such a hospital on the corner of Stan
ton and Wyoming streets. This insti
tution, the only one of its kind in the
entire southwest, has been filled since
It was thrown open to the public which
Is the best proof that there is an urg
ent need for a special hospital.
Meets a Need.
Neither Kansas City nor Los Angeles
have such a hospital. There are none
in Texas, Mexico has none and in the
past it has been necessary for patients
requiring special hospital advantages
to make long, fatiguing journeys to the
east to obtain relief. This hospital
is fitted with every appliance needed
by eye and ear specialists in treating
diseases or Injuries .of the peculiar
kind for which the hospital was es
tablished. It is sanitary throughout,
the building is as completely equipped
as any to be found in Chicago or New
York.
AI Appliances on Hand.
Electrical machines for the treatment
of cases requiring the application of
electricity, X-ray machines, magnets for
the removal of particles of steel from
the eye, high candlepower electric
damps for the application locally of
light and heat in alleviating painf a
modern operating and complete labor
atory are a few of the accessories in
cluded in the eye and ear hospital From
the home like reception halUto the pri
vate, rooms and general ward of the
hospital is as complete as sanitary con
structibn can make it.
Not Necessary to Go Away.
It is no longer necessary for persons
requiring special treatment to pass
through El Paso and go to the east for
this treatment. This Institution was
located in El Paso, not for the con
venience of El Paso alone, but for the
accommodation of cases from all parts
of the southwest including the repub-

Sulpnur-The Best- Skin Remedy
TJrere is no drug or medicine that
has been used for skin diseases as Ions
as Sulphur. The trouble has been that
sulphur in crude or powder form can
not be readily applied to the germ that
causes Eczema, Tetter. Acne. Hives,
Barber's Itch and the many other skin
diseases. Littell's Liquid Sulphur
Compound overcomes this difficulty,
being liquid, and if applied with soft
brush reaches the seat of the trouble
at once killing the germs and giving
instamt relief to intense itching caused
by skin disorders. A few applications
according to directions .will cure any
skin disease, no matter of what char
acter. Send 10c for sample bottle.
