The Way frohibitionfsts Collect
Campaign Funds-Notes.

OLYMPIA, Oct. 27.--It would seem.
from a matter that has Just come to
light. that the Prohibitionists OF this
territory are extremely hard pressed
for campaign funds, and are resorting
to numberiess schemes of a question
able nature to secure the same. Not
long since prominent gentleman of
this city was called upon by a leading
attorney who stated that he held q coli
lection against him and instructions to
proceed with the same at once. The
gentleman thus informed was greatly
surprised and at once demanded to
know who the individual was asking
for the collection. The attorney there
upon produced a small slip OF paper.
which was printed subscription OF
$40 Ia the campaign fund of the Pro-
hibition party. To this was signed the
name of the gentleman against whom
the collection was ordered, and on the
back Of the note. the third party cam
paign committee over its signature
requested the attorney TO proceed with
the collection. The gentleman thus
approached was extremely wroth, as
he declares that he had never before
seen the piecr of paper and that his
signature 10 the same was q base
forgery. The attorney, being con
WINGED OF the fraud, at once tore up
the paper and threw IL Ia tae stove
The gentleman thus offended declares
that for fraud aud trickcry. IL Is his
opinion the Prohibition party beats
even the Democratic party.

THE PRINCESS OF WALDECK.
OF INTEREST TO FAT WOMEN.
What They should Wear and What
In Rest tn ha Avoided.


Fleshy women are dressmakers'
terrors. Nearly all fashions are de-
vised with slender women in view, and
when applied to fat women, with due
discrimination, makes of them night
mares. One can drape thin woman
to give her the curves and dimpled
lines of developed form. But rare Is
the woman who can overcome the
ponderosity of flesh. With the broad
busked corsets and sixteen-boned
waists, the same bodice which the
slender woman wears, strained till il
fits like eelskin, is bGttoned up over
the fat woman and makes her look
fatter than she is. Not one woman oil
200 pounds in four dozen knows how
to bring out the dignity which is posi-.
Bile to such figure. A fat woman in
the usual plain, long-habit bodice is
always less well clothed than she
ought to be; sometimes, if she draws
her corset lacings too tight, she is an
object which, in plain English, is dis.
gushing.
Half the troubles of flesh arise from
treating it in a way Numerically OPP.
posite TO the right one. The fieshy
woman, when she observes that her
waist measure is growing larger. sets
her foot down commonly as resolute.
ly as she NAV against such an unde-
sirable progression. She buys the
stiffest stays, warranted "unbreak
able" in the market, and when the
modiste fits her two attendants lay
their hands on the rebellious flesh and
push and squeeze it together until ii
makes great protuberances above and
below and a groaning, squeaking ma
chine combining the area between.
Now the fat woman makes mis-
take when she discloses TO a non-sym-
pathetic world just how stout she has
become. That is little matter which
is her own secret. and one which she
should guard sedulously. The woman
OF perfect form is the only one who
can afford, for esthetic reasons, TO dis
play her figure in-the close-fitting polo
naise or basque. The woman whose
figure is too full should treat IL ex-
actly as does she whose slenderness is
too fragile-disguise it with long,
rather loose, lines
To come to details, the stout woman
should shun the short waist, or Joseph
inc bodice, as she should the plague.
She should never yield 70 the seduc.
tons OF belt or girdle. She should
never wear basque or any garment
that makes a break at the waist all the
way round. The gown which gives
her repose, dignity and almost grace
Is the gown which gives you her figure
at one sweep, adding 10 her apparent
height and taking the eye off her girth.
making the proportions better. She
wants the longest lines she can get
and the most graceful curves. She
would avoid anything that breaks up
her attire into parts, leading the eve
TO study her in detail. She wants 10
