vi GRAND DUCHESS HELENE OF RUSSIA, The rumored elopement of the Grand Duchess Helene of Russia with a poor student has been denied, but no one has attempted to deny that the charming Helene is one of the most audacious royal flirts to be found in ali the courts of Europe. A SUMMER SCHOOL TERM. Trees for West Side School—Other Educational Notes. There will be an art exhibit in the Masonic hall May 15, 16 and 17, aft ernoon and evening. This exhibit .s prepared by the la dies of the Kalispell art club, and will consist of reproductions of the great master pieces of art. Programs of vocal and instrumental music, re citauons, etc., will be rendered, mak ing the time spent enjoyable as well as instructive. The ladies are to be commended for their zeal in this matter, and no doubt the people of the city will show their appreciation by generous patronage. All admission money will be used to purchase casts and pictures for the school rooms. Tickets, 25 cents for adults and 10 cents for children, may be purchased at the door. Tickets were in the hahds of the pupils last week, and some rivalry ''/as occasioned by competition for a prize offered by the ladies to the rooms selling the most tickets. Miss by K. a ly) the in of Eaton's room, sixth grade, secured the prize offered in the grammar : by grades, and Miss Knapp's room, sec ond grade, that offered in the pri mary grades. Mrs. Geddes' room was a close second for the primary, and Miss Maloney's for the grammar grade prize. There was sold, in all, $102.25 worth of tickets. The selection of pictures and casts for the school will be made by the following committee, assisted by sev en of the teachers: Mesdames S. H. Butler, James Broderick, F. L. Gray, C. E. Conrad. Geo. Phillips, Frances Jurgens-Kleinschmidt and Messrs. J. H. Edwards, A. T. Leopold, Rev. A. H. Carswell and W. W. Gillette. This committee will meet at the Masonic hall, Thursday, May 15, from 10 to 11 o'clock a. m. There being a lack of funds for the purchase of trees for the school grounds this year, a private fund was raised through the efforts of Mrs. Broderick and Mrs. Gray, and this week 60 Carolina poplars are being planted along the four streets bounding the west side school build ing. Throughout all the grades the per centage of promotions has been much smaller than in former years. It has been the aim this year to make the grading close. This will cause a few temporary disappointments, but in the end it will greatly benefit the children and the schools. A few who show ability in a majority of their studies have been promoted on the condition that they make up the sub jects in whicn they show a weakness. There will be a summer school of six weeks' duration, commencing Wednesday, May 14, in the central build,ng, taught by Miss Shaffer and Miss Craven. The tuition will be $6 for the term. This will be a good op portunity for any pupil wishing to make up any deficiency in his work. These two ladies being teachers of excellent standing in our public schools, will be given autnority to remove the condition of any pupil at tending the summer school, who, in their judgment, has made up the work satisfactorily. Parents and pu pils will be able to find the particu lars at the school building. The office will be open every day this week. uel A. C. Dr. Ida F. Rosencrans has removed her office to rooms over Gannon & Neu's, in the Knight block. Office hours remain the same, 9 to 12 and 2 to 4.

Railroad Up the Big Blackfoot River The latest report of railroad build ing that is of especial, importance to Missoula and western Montana comes from residents of the Big Blackfoot valley. By informed settlers there the report is brought to the city that the Big Blackfoot Milling company has completed the purchase of a right of way many miles up the val ley, with the exception of through two ranches. The project is feasible. Many years of heavy logging has so denuded the valley of timber contiguous to the Blackfoot river and its tributaries to permit of driving logs to the com pany mill at Bonner that new meth ods must be employed to bring down the timber, which the company owns far up the valley in large quantities For this a railroad similar to the one in use above Hamilton would satis factory do the work. Authors of the report go further and claim that a road with a route by and through Ovando and Helmville to connect with the main line east is now calculated on.—Missoulian. 2 Special to the women of Kalispell: Do not forget that we carry the best lino of fine kid gloves in the city All sizes and colors.

The basqued coat expresses dignity and comeliness for dresses of rich ma terial and build, while the swathed bell and the long sash ends for gauzy frocks need no advertising. The fashionable skirt is admirably catholic, for under this genus every conceivable style is admitted, the plain skirt, the flounced, the plaited, the tucked skirt, the skirt with a volant take your choice. Canvas, voile—you may suit your figure—and etamine and taffetas are all mentioned as the fash ionable materials, but when all is said and done the fine silks are as attractive as anything; they drape so gracefully and hang so softly. Flounces are made in various ways. Sometimes they take almost the form of three skirts; occasionally they are narrow and relegated to the hem. Many skirts are trimmed with box plaits all round, bodice and skirt alike. Tuckings J NEW BLUE AND VIOLET WAISTS. are a fashionable treatment and are employed both horizontally and per pendicularly. Many of the soft crepe de chine and mousseline toilets have the skirts made iu "sun ray" fashion, which is a revival likely to become popular. The Game of the Hoar. Every popular ocean steamer now carries its set of pingpong, or parlor tennis, which enlivens things on ship board. New Yorkers fill in odd even ings with pingpong tournaments where sides are chosen and one side plays the other down, and as yet simple prizes are given. The possibilities of pingpong for rainy days at seaside or mountains and for semi-invalids and elderly peo ple who do not care for out of door sports, but who like exercise, are many. It will eventually involve "caddy" to pick up balls, as diving about under furniture for the balls is one of the unpleasant features.—What to Eat FRENCH MODES. The Hard Weaetn* Street Gown and /he Dressy Tailor Made. Women are realizing more every day the importance of the toilet, especially this year, when there are plenty of temptations to spend money. The trot toire gown, which the Frenchwoman is never without is b^ her kept faithfully to its original purpose of morning wear for every day, and she accompanies it with an appropriate toque. It is really a bona fide walking, hard wearing dress. For this class of gown the deep basques are coming in again, joined at the waist line, and the skirt is a walk ing length, just touching the ground, nothing more.

Most of these dresses are made so that the jacket can be left open or 'closed, and when they are open the fancifully shaped revers show all sorts of em broideries. Perpendicular cord tucking? in triplets can hardly be overdone. The skirts are all lined with glace, biff un ter jupes do not seem to be considered necessary, and consequently the dress s can be more easily lifted when req uisite, but they are shorter than here tofore. Cordings mingle with embroid ery and often form designs on the bad of the bodice and either side like sun's rays and just below the waist. There is a liberal use of lace in the way of jabots and fronts and appliques on collars. Those who are fortunate enough to have old point lace which they can spare for such a useful pur pose should employ it, and for the mo ment Venetian point is much worn both on evening and day gowns. Foulard is in favor, and the cut shows a day gown of pale blue with a design of chrysanthemums embroider ed on the silk in narrow gray and mauve ribbons. The skirt and bodice are finely tucked, the skirt edged with kiltings headed with Valenciennes entre deux, the collar aud vest formed of fide muslin and lace, fastened with a knot of black velvet in front. For evening dress there is a new sleeve copied, perhaps, from that of the Normandy peasants. It is generally made in a thin fabric—it would not look well in any other—and is gathered into the armhole and then set into a band, which is reversed and buttoned above the elbow, so that it is quite hidden, and the fullness falls over it. It is hardly possible to have an even ing gown too soft falling. Anything that is stiff is a mistake, and the elab oration introduced iuto these skirts is truly wonderful. Evening dresses generally now have a garland of artificial flowers on one side. We are not content with follow ing nature, but have flowers of every hue except their natural one and foli age to match. The newest adornments are ruchings of flowers made in silk.

Some Thlnqrs That Are Good For Fast Glowing Voung Folk. A question of vital interest to the ma jority of mothers today is what food is best calculated to meet the demands of growing childhood as well as to supply the waste of its tissues. With the fast growing child its demands for food ofttimes seem inconsistent, but in most instances it will be found that its sys tem is really in need of a certain food substance, which can only be got by eating an excess of f he unnecessary food in order to obtain it. With active exercise of both mind and body, as with the rollicking school boy, the demand for proper food is great. In most instances, and leaving It to the children's decision, "proper food" means pastries, etc. Instead ot these building up and repairing the body, they serve to give more heat and energy to an already worn, tired out nature. The virtues of whole wherst bread for the growing child are many. It supplies every need and want of the human body. It not only gives beat and energy, but is a constant repair« of waste tissue, while its mineral con stituents convert cartilage into Strong, healthy bone and teeth. Sandwiches of this bread daintily put together with a thin slice of cold meat or some meat preparation form a most acceptable lunch, and if these are incased in the waxed naper used by bakers, and which can be purchased of them, they will keep moist and fresh for hours. Do not forget to use butter on the bread quite as liberally as if no sand wich was to be made. A certain por tion of fat is absolutely necessary to the body's development as well. Sweet, fresh butter or cream is the best form of fat, and a liberal use of these is quite sufficient for the body's needs. In preparing the school luncheon do not forget to tuck in a bit of fruit oi some kind. Sweet fruits contain much nourishment, it is well to remember, dates, figs, bananas and gnapes con taining the most. Juicy fruits are rich In phosphates for the blood and are easily digested as well. The excess of water which they contain forms a distilled drink, and as thirst quenchers they prove a success. It is far better to supply the children with fruit for their luncheon than to give them a food that in time works evil effects in the system.—New York Observer. Advice For the Fat Woman. Notwithstanding the interest shown in physical culture by people in gener al, the distinctly "fat" woman has not disappeared. Here is what one of the numerous people "who know" says she should and should not eat: The woman—or man—who wishes to lose flesh will avoid sweets and starchy foods, eliminating from the bill of fare such edibles as potatoes, corn, beans, peas, parsnips, spaghetti, beets, cream and fresh breads. The only admissible drinks are weak tea without milk for breakfast and luncheon, one glass of water for dinner and a cup of hot wa ter before breakfast and before going to bed.
