“FOR BIGANY, SET ~_ FREON PAROL Having 19 Wives, Gets Out 3 Years Ahead of Time. DUPED WOMEN HERE, Detective Work of New York Girl He Married Led to Conviction in Hoboken. TRENTON, N. J., March 20.—Emil ari von Muller or “Count Vonder- Ragen,” known as “the marrying Count,” has been paroled by the New Jersey State Board of Prison Inspec- tors, The “Count” was sentenced in 1910 to serve eight years in the State prison for bigamy. ‘He was arrested in Los Angeles early in 1910, where it was said hi had just married Miss Pearl W: Powers, daughter of a rich grocer. He ‘was accused of having, in all, nine- teen wives, but he denied that any besides his Los Angeles bride had any Mra. Mildred J.

No, it’s not a new kind of cracker name of the uniform dress for women, in which Mrs, Mildred Jobn Landone hopes to interest us all. She herself is 20 Interested that she has written a book about it, and she plans soon to open a prize competition to which well-known artists will be invited to contribute their ideas of a Polymuriel. All designs submitted will be placed on exhibition and a committee of prominent women will be asked to award the prize to that uniform Gress which they modern woman. Pink-cheeked young woman with a dreamy smile. “*Poly’ is for ‘many,’” she explained, “and ‘muriel’ Kittle sister. @easons, which will be as suitable fo: which will never go out of style.” WILL BE BEAUTIFUL, HEALTH- FUL AND SIMPLE. “And what's it going to look like?” T inquired anxiously. “It ie to be as beautiful ae pes- sible and yet consistent with health and comfort,” she replied. “My own idea of a Polymuriel in- eludes trousers. They will be rather full and reach to the ankle, Over them will be worn a skirt sufficiently wide to make walking comfortable, and ending about midway between knee and ankle. In rainy weather it will be possi- ble to butten back the trouser- lege until they de net come be- low the edge of the skirt, and there le therefore nothing about the ankles to eelleet moisture. The skirt will be hung frem the shoulder on suspenders. The waist will end at the normal waiet-line and have lecse, full eo and a neck that can be made either high or low. Ne cor- eet will be worn with the costume. “But I by no means set myself as the proper authority to design the Polymuriel,” Mrs. Landone added quickly, “I am only giving you my rather vague and tentative idea of it. I want the design finally accepted to be that of a real artist, and there- fore I am going to open a competi- tion, with prizes, All Polymuriel de- signs submitted will be shown to the public, and the winner will be picked by a committee of representative women. “I do not advocate that all women should be garbed in Polymurtels on all occasions, but I should like to have such a costume accepted as suitable whenever one wishes to wear it. For travelling, for inclemeat ther and for all gatherings of a serious nature it would be just the thing. “The church, for example, is the last place in the world to advertise the modiste, I know that many peo- ple stay away from church because y dread the sartorial competition waged there. And I have always felt sympathy for poor working girls who attend meetings for their benefit and are confronted with a platform full of richly dressed women.” AND IT WON'T DETRACT FROM “THE BEAUTY OF WEARERS, “But can any uniform dregs be found,” I objected, “which will prove becoming to every woman?” “Yes,” continued Mrs, Landone, “because women are naturally beau- a, tiful whatever they wear, “Any woman whe has managed to look beautiful while -wearing the absurd fashions of the last few yeare need net fear that uniform dress will detract frem her ne. eae inate inable F fashi marrew shouldere, wide sheul- dere, arme like balloons, Gren Uke epladles bigs high, bine “What does the name mean?” was my first curious question when I had called at Mrs. Landone’s apart ment, No. 528 Riverside It isn't the title that matters, 90 much as the thing it stands for.

Yet there was dignity in the custom of former days, when women raised their wool and flax and spun their thread and the same garment was handed down from mother to @aughter and from father to son.” Maybe there was dignity—but even @ child hates to wear hand-me- downs! And then Mrs, Landone frankly at- tacked New York's general adher- ence to the old proverb (doubtless in- vented by a tailor), “clothes make the man.” “It 1s @ fact,” she said, “that many sensitive women, whose minds and attributes would lend glory to our sex, are shut In, year in, year out, for want of suitable or rather stylish clothes. It is easy to say that great minds should be ubove such trifies. Indeed, there are many who are above the des to possess, but they are not above the hurt of the ridicule of their neighbora, The doors are shut to them, not only in the social world but also in the business world, WHERE UNIFORM COSTUME WOULD BE A GODSEND. “I am speaking for the sensible woman who stays at home because she has nothing to wear. The pre- dicament is not a pleasant one. When it occurs repeatedly, not among hun- dreds but among hundreds of thou- ganda of women, the remedy should be found.” I have never thought there were many Flora Macflimsys in New York, but Mrs. Landone promptly onppiies long list. she said, “and the busin women who are too fatigued to give much time to fineries. There is the young, small-salaried girl who is sup- Porting @ mother or a brother. There are teachers, socia! service workers and nurses.
