New York. Mny 21. The summer
Is drawing near mid with It tho time
of Juno weddings nnd graduating ex
orclses. To the average girl tho
thought of the coming examinations
J with their puzzling questions nnd
dreadful pitfalls, does not cause half
j. so much worry and anxiety as the
question concerning the dress she Is
mencomont exercises. It Is undoubt
edly nn Important event In tho life of
a girl, when she graduntes from
school, after having for years worked
hnrd at her studies to fit hurself for
her future career, whatever that may
he.
The general custom of dressing girl
graduates In white on the occasion of
their graduation, is of quite ancient
uiiKiii. ii cun ue irnceu uacK iu uie
old Romans, with whom the custom
was so common that It even found
expression In the term used for those
who were about to graduate or who
stood before their final examination.
Such persons were called candldatl,
from the color of their toga, which
was invariably white. The derivation
of the custom Is perhnps not quite
correct nnd far fetched, hut at all
events the custom i,s as much in
vogue now as It was when our grand
mothers nnd great grandmothers
went to school.
White Always Appropriate.
It is undeniably nn appropriate cus
tom. There Is nothing more befitting
youthful feminine charms, nothing
sweeter to look at thnn a girl dress
ed In white. Youth hath charms of
Its own and needs not gems nor rich
ornaments to make Itself felt. Even
the plainest girl looks pretty In n
whltu dress if It fits her well nnd for
handsome girls no better foil could
be devised than the simplicity and de
lightful unobtrusiveness of a white
frock. It lends an indescribable
charm to the graceful lines nnd hud
ding forms of the sweet graduating
girl.
Although the custom of selecting
white materials for graduating dress
cs prevails as ever. Dame Fashion
has her say as to the materinls, the
cut and the trimmings of the cos
tumes. Fortunately for a grent many
girls who are not daughters of mil
lionalrcs, fashion allows considerable
freedom In the selection of materinls
for graduating dresses. Fabrics of
every description, from the cheapest
to the most expensive used, so long
as they are white nnd are cut and
trimmed in the approved style. Judg'
Inir from the ceneral style of dresses
T In vogue at the present time graduate
X ing dresses will be unusually hand
T some and charming this season.
1 Simple and Suitable.
Among the simpler mnterials which
will be used for such dresses are ba
tistes and mulles of various degrees
of fineness and expensiveness. India
linens, Persian lawns, Swiss and or
gandie will also find many admirers.
It may be said, however, that the
softer materials, like batiste and
mulle are preferable, as they lend
themselves better than the stiff er ma
terials to producing those soft nnd
graceful effects so characteristic of
present styles.
The question of trimmings and or
namentations is a very important one
with graduating dresses. It is
iu the trimmings and ornaments
that the bulk of the expense
naments that tlie bulk of tue expense
Is. Hand embroideries and ornamen
tal stitchings are extremely popular
tlhs yenr and will be used on gradu
ating dresses Just as they are on
other dresses. If the girl is clever
at needlework, or if she has a sister
who knows how to do things and Is
willing to sacrifice some of her spare
time for her graduating sister, the
problem is comparatively Bimple nnd
the expense of a suitable dress not
great. But. If the embroideries have
to be purchased, the cost of even a
simple dress mny rise to a prohibi
tive figure.
The lines of the graduating dresses
should he simple and graceful and
their overloading with frills, flounces,
etc., should be carefully avoided.
However, there Is ample room for
elaboration of details in the way of
embroideries, insertions, stitchings.
etc.. enough to produce a variety of
effects from tho plainest and most
severe to the frivolously' ornamental.
I Princess effects are very' pretty and
will bo used a great deal this year.
Graduated tucks are quite suitable for
ornamenting the skirts. The waist
will, in most cases, be made with a
deep yoke and. perhaps, with a bertha
falling over the sleoves. There will
be a creat variety of sleeves, from the
full top sleeve, with closo fitting long '
cuffs of laco or transparent material,
to the short elbow sleeves, with frills
at the lower end.

He has sold the Elgin stnge line

Mr Keeney tool; this rundown route
in 1894 and by constant effort built '
it up to be the best stage line in Ore

best equipped line operated in the

horses each, four monster Concord j
coaches and the pussenger tralllc is i
heavier than on any line in tho state. 1
