ERE we show a group of pretty, practical underclothing for a doll 16 inches in height; we also show & little sallor dress with pleated skirt and a reefer jacket to match. The dress and jacket would, of course, be made in navy blue serge or cloth, the underclothing in fine ealico or cambric. NEEDLEWOR 5] HIEF among the “use- fuls” are sewing cages; “companions” our grand- called them. These can be little rolls fully equipped to tuck in a satchel for traveling, a small work bag to hold a bit of embrotdery, a hanging bag to have materials In readiness for odd jobs and a collapsi- ble box that can be flattened out for packing. For the roll cut bronze leather into & strip six Inches wide and twelve inches long, lined with flowered silk in the same proportions and bound with brown silk brald. Make two circles of pasteboard two inches in dlameter with leather and silk. Sew the strips around them to make a pocket for spools. On the long flap sew notched leaves of flannel for needles, and beyond it stitch into compartments a half inch wide rib- bon to nold scissors, bodkin, thimble, stiletto. Fasten lengths of ribbon to the end for tying the case when rolled. A collapsible work box may be made from a five inch square of card- board and two 12-inch squares, one for the outside of suede, glazed leath- er, velvet or cretonne; the other of figured plain silk for inside. Insert the small square between the two pieces of materlal and stitch clogely around it. Round off corners of bag and bind with ribbon or silk braid, three-quarters of an inch wide. To the center of two of the sides sew pockets of the lining material, and on the other two sections put a needlebook of leaves of flannel and a small heart-shaped pin ocushion. Sew ten-inch strips of ribbon, two to each corner, placing them about an inch in each slde of the rounded edge. These when tled draw the ma- terial into shape, throwing the ful- ness on inside of box. A little prac- tice with paper will make the idea plain. It 18 so useful to have near the dressing table some sort of sewing equipment that the little hanging oase will surely be acceptable. Cov- er an oblong plece of cardboard three by five inches with dark flowered bro- cade or ribbon. To middle of top sew a small needlebook of pinked flannel with a silk or raffia top. Un- derneath stitch a strip of ribbon to hold scissors, and at one side a tiny pouch for the thimble. Fasten hang- ers of some ribbon at top of case. Four spools of thread are attached to the case by short lengths of ribbon or cord knotted at one end so the epool does not slip off, the upper end sewed to each corner of the case so the spools hang down. Have black and white silk, and black and white cotton. Another little hanging case may be made of a strip of rafla an inch wide and five inches long, from which are suspended scissors, a thimble case, a needlebook and spools of thread. A dainty small workbag can be made in melon shape. Cut pasteboard in five oval pleces measuring six inches across the center, the widest part. Taper to point at each end. Cover each plece with flowered silk on outside and plain on inside, allow- ing a half inch for turning in. ‘When the pleces are finished join the sectlons edge to edge by over- casting, when they form a melon- shaped bag. Fasten a ribbon to the polnts for a hanger and add a small mmans rosette to cover the joining. Such a bag {8 pretty in green or brown suede lined with gay silks, or in linen with a cross stitch or floral design em- broidered on all but the center sec- tlon, which forms the bottom. Old pleces of brocade make handsome bags, the seams covered with gold cord, which 18 also uged for hanger. Add a tassel on each point. “VANITY BOX” MOST USEFUL Duty of Every Woman to Preserve Her Looks to the Very Best of Her Abliity. Men carry as a constant joke the fact of the women folks having with them their little vanity box. Now, as a matter of reason a woman has as much right to carry a vanity box, which makes her appearance a mat- ter of importance, as & man has to shave himself. A woman only shows her good sense In trying to preserve her good looks, for it Is quite easy to look a fright if one 1s a little lax in touching up. The men of late have been carrylng in the tops of thelr hats a tiny mirror In which they can note if their hair is unmussed, collar and tle correctly ad- justed, etc, and so forth; so why should women act surreptitiously in their use of the vanity box, which is 2 necessity to her well belng if she considers her beauty of any account whatever? And what woman wouldn’t be beau- tiful? So do not be backward in putting to 80od use your vanity box, whether con- cealed in purse, or chatelaine, or in the top of the umbrella handle, for it 18 to your matertal interest, Attractivenes s nine-tenths of the battle in the conquest of the other sex, Both high and low neckwear is be- ing shown In the new styles. Many French handkerchiefs embrofdered in delicate colors. Rosettes in novel shapes are fagh- loned of straw with centers of silk. are For belts, the black-and-white stripes are used in leather and silk. Cluny, in bandings, is very popular for trimming the bottoms of the new skirts. Prominent among the trimmings are the dashing effects in quills and rosettes, The new marquisette waists are lovely. Many of them are embroidered in colors, Many skirts show tunics that are buttoned over at one side under rows of buttons. Striped and dotted rainproof fou- lards are very attractive for hoods for motoring. The season’s poke hats have been ardently taken up by fashionable women who--motor. New skirts are over two inches wide, but heavily weighed at hem to maintain straight lines. ‘Walstcoats or vests, some without, revers many of the new coats. For tailored suits a novel material s “aero raye.” It is mot so heavy as cheviots or serges and comes in most attractive colorings. some with, are seen in HAIR MUST SUIT TOILETTE Notable Is the Revival of the “Bang,” a Fashion Which Is Not Recelved With Joy. Nowadays it is found convenient to change the style of halr dressing in or- der that it may agree with this hat or that dress. There are some tollettes that would be bereft of their effect, and even be made to look absurd, it the hair were not arranged in keep- ing. The curled fringe, called the “bang,” has been revived. One reason for the justifiable revival of the light-curled lovelocks that stray about the forehead is the immense popularity of the short center parting, which is just a little trying without thelr softening influence; and another 18 the relnstatement of the heavy plalt or the twisted drapery of hair which is used to frame the chignon. When the plait weights the halr over the forehead the counteracting effect of a few gossamer-like tendrils of hair be- low is reqisite for the sake of ele gance. One of the coiffures of the moment {llustrates the conical dressing that is becoming to the girl with a small face and mignon features. It is built up by means of a twisted drapery of hair which resembles a plait, and be low it 18 a thick coll held in place by tortoice-shell prongs. The hair Are lessly ondule beneath, 8o that the ears are hidden, and there are a few stray lovelocks on the forehead. In another the plait is used as a coronal merely, and all the rest of the [ bair is curly except the childish-look- ing straight fringe. THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONE BANKERS COME IN 10 PALACE COACHES (Continued from Page 1.) the security behind the loan is of a liquid nature. I think that we all admit that the question of safeguard- ing and regulating in some sane way the eronorous issues of commercial paper which are continually being purchased by the bankers of this country is indeed a live question and this association could do far worse than to devote some of its energies to devising some system which will make it possible to ascertain with definiteness, the actual condition of borrowers who are offering paper on the open market, so that the coun- try banker who depends solely on second hand information may feel justified in purchasing the paper and be confident that it is a desirable investment among his assets.’” The meeting then adjourned and a pike dinner was served on the shore of Lake Bemidji. 500 Pounds of Pike. Five hundred pounds of choicest Lake Bemidji pike were consumed by the bankers and their wives, which had been prepared by Oscar Christenson, chief chef at the Hotel Markham, and cooked by John Tay- lor, one of the best known lumber camp cooks of northern Minnesota. The preparation of the fish was sup- ervigsed by F. S. Lycan. The pike dinner as it was termed was gotten up with the aid of the Ladies Aid societies of the Presbyter- ian, Methodist and Swedish Luther- an churches, the women being as- sisted by the by the girls of the re- spective churches. The menu consisted of the follow- ing: clam chowder, fried Lake Be- midji pike, escalloped potatoes, cold ham, radishes, young onions, sand- wiches, ice cream and cake. Wild Flowers in Profusion. All tables were prettily decorated with wild flowers, and the waitresses gowned in white, fleeting to and fro among the long banquet tables in the trees of Bemidji's public park formed a picture that drew favor-| able comment from more than one of the visiting bankers. Exclamations of, “Oh, such pike,” were frequent, and President Hun- toon of the bankers’ association was heard to say: “I wonder if the residents of Be- midji fully appreciate the advantage they possess in having such a beau- tifut lake as Lake Bemidji in the center of the city. If I lived in Be- midji during the summer, I would have pike for breakfast every morn- ing, and it would be caught by Huntoon.” Those in charge of the dinner were: Mesdames Campbell, Spooner and Torrance of the Presbyterian church were assisted by Gladys Kreatz, Babb and Beryl Neal, Gladys Stanton, Gladys Mackenzie, Dorothy Torrance, Ivis Roberts, Selma Witting and Miss Gooley. Mesdames Shannon, Richards, Cut- ter, Minor, Simons, of the Methodist church were assisted by Grace Rit- chie, Hazel Southworth, Flora South- worth, Ethel and Eva Getchell, Olive Cunningham, Inez Woodruff, Nell Shannon, Ruth Wightman, Hazel Wells and Miss Schmit. The Ladies Aid of the Swedish Lutheran church under the direction of Mrs. John Moberg were assisted by Misses Lofe, Barness, Almquist, Hendrickson, Edd and Mesdames Smith, Christenson, Wilson, Alton, Thompson, Tenstrom, Lindval, Bo- den, Larson and Neslend, Young to Speak Tonight. At this afternoon’s session of the bankers, Joseph R. Chapman spoke on “Educational Reform in Minne- sota,” and Frank A. Weld president of theMoorhead Normal on “Training Teachers for Agricultural and In- dustrial Education.” W. D. Will- ard of Mankato gave a report of the delegates to the Los Angeles conven- tion. Before adjournment resolu- tions will be adopted and officers elected. Tonight Lafayette Young speaks at 7:30 in the Armory on “The Bank- er and Other Men.” The public in general is invited to attend. A band concert of one hour will precede the meeting tonight. At 2 a. m. tomorrow the special train, with three extra sleepers mak- ing thirteen cars in all, will leave for International Falls where the bank- ers will spend tomorrow. DUMAS FACES NEW ARREST LATE TODAY (Continued from Page 1.) at the head of the lakes or in Minne- apolis. Dumas Isn’t Worried. At Cass Lake today Dr. Dumas is keeping up a bold front. He is treating his arrest and the charges preferred against him more as a joke, and says that he will prosecute his accusers to the fullest extent of the law as soon as the present trouble is settled in his favor.

The third Lord Templetown used to tell of an extraordinary and really au- thentic case of second sight. His brother, Henry Upton, the second vis- count, was with his regiment abroad when he’and several brother officers saw an old friend wearing trousers and shirt only pass through the mess room to another room from which there was no outlet. They followed and saw nobody, and the sentry per- sisted that no person had entered. Henry Upton wrote to his brother, afterward third viscount, to request him to go to their friend’s lodgings in London and find out what he was do- ing at such and such an hour on a cer- tain day. The brother in London com- plied and found that their friend bad died, but not on the day he had been seen abroad. Later the landlady was asked on oath as to the date and hour of death and whether he had died in a white shirt with a blue check. After some demur she confessed that her lodger did not dle when she first stated, but on the day when his friends had seen him pass through the mess room. It seems the date of demise had been falsified on account of his pen- sion, which was almost all his family had to depend upon. And he died in a white shirt with a blue check, his landlady having lent one of her hus- band's to bim on the morning of his death.—London Court Journal. SHE WANTED LIGHT. And 8o 8he Had the Windows Fixed Exactly to Her Taste. The architectural new house that caused a decided do- mestic rupture was the windows. The man was in favor of medium sized windows, with small panes to match the rest of the house, but his wife in- sisted upon enormous sheets of plate glass. “You are away all day and do not know whether I can see my hand be- fore me at noontime or not,” she said, “but I am In the house most of the time and must have plenty of light and sunshine.” So they had big windows. Before the carpenter left she ordered inside shutters put up. The family’'s first night In thelr new home. was cele- brated by adjusting two sets of win- dow shades, one white, the other dark green, which served as a background for two pairs of curtalns, one of silk, the other of lace. On the third day the man helped his wife to hang addi- tional sash curtains, and on the fourth day he found a man tinkering with the outside of the window ledge. “He I8 just getting ready to put up the awnings,” she explained. Her husband looked at the shutters, the two sbades, the two curtains and the sash curtalns and the arrange- ments for the awnings at each win- ‘dow, and then he laughed, but she could not understand why.—New York Times. Lung Complaint. Lodger—1 can't stay here any longer, Mrs. Binks. Landlady—Why not. sir? What is your. complaint? FLodger— Lung romplaint. Your baby howls too much.—London Telegraph. Be true to your word and your work and your friend.—O’Reilly. feature of the Absinth. ~ Dr. R, Hercod of Lausanne in & spe- «clal contribution to the Alllance Tem- perance Almanac points out that the absinth liquor, which is now prohib- ited in three European countries—Bel- glum, Holland and Switzerland—owes its pecullar noxiousness to the fact that it is prepared with several es- mences, among them wormwood, which have marked toxic properties. Added to the action of the alcohol (a strong absinth contains 65 per cent) these essences have a most deleterious ef- fect on the organisms, especially on the nervous systenr. Even small doses provoke a great f{rritability, which may easily lead heavy drinkers to crime. Epilepsy 18 more quickly de- veloped among absinth drinkers than among the drinkers of the commoner kinds of alcoholic lquors. — Dundee Advertiser. A Quaint Inscription. An old churchyard near London is famous for the inscriptions on its tombstones. There is one on the me- morial of Susannah Barford, died 1652. aged ten years and thirteen weeks. The concluding lines beneath the skull and crossbones on her monument are: Her stage was short, her thread was quickly spunn, Drawne out and cutt, got heaven, her worke was done. This world to her was but a traged play. | Bhee came and saw’t, dislik’t and passed away. When Dining Out. “Pop!” “Yes, my son.” “What is an ultimate consumer?” “Why, he’s the one who usually has boy.”—Yonkers Statesman. The concessions of the weak are the concessions of fear.—Burke. Carrot Soup. A good soup may be made by cook- ing grated young carrots in milk or in milk and water in a double boller. Use about one-quarter cupful of carrot to a cupful of liquid. Thicken with flour mixed with butter in the propor- tion of about one-half tablespoonful of each to every cupful of the liquid. Season with salt and a very little mace and strain. Tibet. Tibet is all mountains and valleys. There Is scarcely a plain worthy of the name. The mountain passes are at a high altitude and crossed omly with great difficulty. The valleys are ‘well populated, but the cities are small and the houses crude buildings of mud walls. The streets are narrow and dirty. Northern Tibet is peopled large- ly by nomad tribes, while in the south there is @ more settled population. The Value of Time. “When 1 started in life,” sald Mr. Booster, “I worked twelve hours a day.” “Yes,” replied his son, “but in these rapld times any one who took twelve hours to do a day’s work couldn't hold a job.”—Washington Star. Congquering the Cobra. It has been kuown thousands of years that the dreaded deadly cobra, whose bite invariably and almost in- stantly causes death, may be easily paralyzed and tranced by a very slight finger squeeze around the back of its fearful neck. to pay the check for the dinners, my | POSTED ON RUBBER:: He Couldn’t Be Fooled About the Grewth of the Trees. A promoter for a rubber company was trying to persuade Mr. Spangler to invest some of his savings in the company's stock. The demand for rubber, he said, was worldwide and constantly increasing. The company owned immense forests of rubber trees and kept an army of workers employed all the time in gathering the crude rubber. The output was enor- mous, and the profits—well, the scheme was certainly better than a gold mine. “l have heard,” sald Mr. Spangler suspiciously, “that the forests are be- ing exhausted.” “That's true to some extent,” an- swered the other, “but we: are not de- pending on the existing trees. We are planting hundreds of squave miles with new trees.” “How long does it take for a tree to grow big enough to tap?” “Only six or eight years." “That won't go down with me,” sald Mr. Spangler, with emphasis. *“My wife has had a rubber plant in the front parlor for six years, where it's warm all the time, wintér and sum- mer, and it hasn’t grown a foot in all that time. No, sir; you can’t fool me on that!”"—Youth’s Companion. Man Eating Wild Men. In the celebrated “Travailes” of Ed- ward Webb (1590) are dozens of stories that would make Munchausen turn green with envy. One of the most cele- brated of these is his story of the wild men of Prester John, which is as fol- lows: “In the court of Prester [ohn there is a wilde man and another in the high street of Constantinople whose allow- ance is every day a quarter of raw mutton, and when any man dyeth for some notorious offence then they are allowed every day a quarter of man's flesh. These wilde men are chained fast to a post every day. the one in Prester Tohn’s courtd, the other in the high street of Constantinople, each of them bhaving a mantell about their shoulders, and all over their bodyes they have wonderful long haire. They are chalned by the neck lest they speedily devour all that cometh within thelr reach.” England’s Uncrowned King. Of the loug line of kings which have ruled England-since the days of Wil- am the Conqueror, nearly 900 years ago, there has been only one un- crowned king. King Edward V., the boy king, who met an untoward fate in the Tower of London in 1483, is the only monarch who reigned without re- celving the church’s blessing or the formal homage of his subjects. Some people include Lady Jane Grey among England's monarchs. If this doubtful clalm Is allowed England's only un- crowned queen ranks with Edward V. and deprives him of one distinetion.— London Tit-Bits. A Triumph of Imagination. Tallandier told me that a great 4archbishop of his acquaintance in Paris bad set himself to make an exact de- sign of the imaginary abbey of The- leme, minutely described by Rabelals, and told him that if such an edifice were to be erected it would be the most perfect bullding every known.— Conway’s Autoblography.
