A SEASON OF
 LARGENESS
  Fashion Says Large Hats, Elaborate Trimmings, Gowns Full.

With October only few days away with it's accompanying need of new gowns, wraps and hats, the shops are beginning to be thronged by women looking at the displays for the fall. The riches of these displays have never been surpassed. The season is to De one of '1argeness," if one may so express it. The hats are larger in size than ever and, of course, that means larger trimming for them. The gowns are full the trimmings elaborate, and the wings to go on over them are large.
 As to colors, there is fancy for the tones of purple through all the violet and lavender tones, for the raspberry tints from the darkest to the pale ones that hint of pink and lavender, for the range of colors in the wood and copper shades, and a fashionable light color runs through the yellows from canary to maize and similar tones. There is a decided mixture of colors. One of the stun ming hats made of reddish purple vel vet is trimmed with raspberry, lav- ender, emerald green and plum color ribbons and with morning-glories, peonies and orchids in all the colors. The newest shade of blue is al- most the shade that was formerly known as Copenhagen blue. It is between the Copenhagen and the Alice blue, and the new velvets, rib- bons, flowers and plumes all come in 1t. Another new shade is the shell brown. This is a pinkish-brown, such as one finds on a sea shell, and 1t is particularly good for hats, wraps and gowns. The new hats are mostly in the cloche, or bell shape, and they are becoming to nearly every one. The shape, however, can not be se- lected haphazard, for any belk shape will not do for all faces any more than any single shape of hat will suit round or oval faces alike.
 The fashionable flowers are the dahlias, orchids, morning -glories and the feur- de-lis. On single hat may be found dahlias, large pansies, vio- lets and foliage.
 The newest plume is the rainy day. These plumes are a great improve ment over the uncurled ostrich, but none too beautiful. They are simply ostrich feathers treated and shaped in such a way that they keep an up right position on the hat, and rainy weather does not take out the little soft effect that is given to them. A hat trimmed with them is very natty and jaunty. Large, cigar-shaped hatpins, immense eabachon rosettes and widespread wings are to be found on the hats to wear with tailored gowns.
 The novelty for street gowns is the olive green color, and there are many handsome tailored suits. For evenings 2 there are the spangled laces and chif- 4 ion voiles, and chiffon silks and oth- $ CT delicate fabrics. The long bodice effect, in princess style, is in favor for evening gowns, the surplice for hand some gowns with lace yokes, while many of the skirts are full plaited and trimmed with three bands of silk or velvet or braid. Goats are of ev- cry length, from the girdle to the hem of the skirt, while sleeves for handsome gowns are from the elbow to seven-eighths length and for tail bred dresses to the wrist.

 SUFFERER.
 The French have a happy method of curing ehilblains, and this they use when the weather begins to grow cold, First take half an ounce of white wax, of OK marrow one ounce, of hogs lard one ounce. Take your mixture and melt 1t slowly over the fire and stir without stopping till your wax has melted. Then strain through a fine cloth and when bedtime comes spread the soft paste on the chilblains and wrap fine handkerchiefs round the toes and fingers.

M'kehz.e HAS SOLD PROPERTY.

Deed for All His Holdings Except
Water Works Plant Recorded.
Considerable interest and specula
ton was aroused at Bismarck last
week when a warranty deed for all
real property except the water works
plant, owned by Alexander Mckenzie
in Bismarck, was recorded in the reg
lister of deeds office. The transfer is
made to the Todd Land company, a
South Dakota corporation with Offices
in st. Paul, and the consideration is
100000.
The property includes improved and
unimproved city lots, the whole being
the choicest in the city.
The sale was complete surprise to
McKenzie's friends here, none of whom
had and advance information, and
there is much speculation as to wheth-
er this means the withdrawal Of the
big political chief from state politics.
It is reported that Mckenzie has be.
come interested in Western Canada
lands with William Bulge Of Grand
Forks, and others, and that his inter-
ests at Bismarck are closed out for
the purpose of investment over the
line.

Cures Her in Five DAYS,

"After my granddaughter of about
seven years had been cured of the
measles, she was attacked about a
fortnight later by furious itching and
painful eruption all over her body,
especially the upper part of it, forming
watery and bleeding sores, especially
under the arms, of considerable size.
She suffered great deal and for three
weeks we nursed her every night,
using all the remedies we could think
OF. Nothing would help. We tried the
Cuticura Remedies and after twenty.

THE WESTERN COUNTIES
ACTION FOR CONSPIRACY.
Russian Alleges Fraud In Settling
Damage Case.

Startling charges are made in suit
brought at Towner by Henry Rosenke
Of Upham. through his attorney, d. j.
O'Connell, against John Wittmeyer of
Kramer and ]. C. Bowers of Upham
for the sum of $13,5OO on charge of
conspiracy to defraud.
Back of the suit Rosenke tells an in.
teresting story. On Nov. 6, 1906, Ro.
senke's wife and three children were
killed in train wreck on the Balti-
more & Ohio railway, while on their
way from Russia to join Rosenke in
North Dakota.
Rosenke, who is Russian German
and had been in the United States only
short time, went to the defendants
for advice after the death Of his FAM
lily. The plaintiff alleges in his COM
plant that the defendants told him
not to get an attorney. but to let them
ok the settlement, and that If he would
pay them $500 for expenses they would
get him 10000.
He also alleges that false kilograms
were sent to him purporting to be from
the Baltimore & Ohio railway, and also
from the imperial Russian consul in
Chicago, asking him to go to Chicago
at once for settlement. He went to
Chicago, accompanied by Wittmeyer
and Bauer! and deal was fixed by the
defendants and two attorneys, wherein
Rosenke agreed to settle with the
railroad company for $4,000.
He further alleges that 1880 was
paid to the Chicago attorneys and a
check for $3.50 was given to the
plaintiff. The check was given to
Wittmeyer for safe keeping, and he
drew the money and had 1t placed to
his own credit. The plaintiff further
asserts that all he received Of the
$1,000 was $500.
Peter E. Sandlie, sheriff Of Nelson
county at the time, is also made a
party to the suit. The case will be
tried at the next term Of the district
court Of McHenry county.
