on the boulevard are American women.
They are not dressed in the absolute
harmony of lines and color-even the
Paris working girl knows how to man
age that. The American is more prac-
tical than artistic. She is a thoroughly
healthy girl, and her attractions. are
not based upon fictitious things. She
does not have to resort to artificial
means to make her beauty apparent.
THE London woman is one of abso-
Lutte elegance in carriage and taste of
dress. The English make mediocre
face appear beautiful. 1t is due to
artificial means.
I'm California you find the really
beautiful woman not only among the
so-cal1ed upper class-the class that
gets into the society columns-but the
real. and in many cases the higher,
type of beauty is found in other strata
the good middle class, and some
times in the class where circumstances
make it difficult to live. But Califor-
MIA climate seems to be an antidote
for that. Among the poor there are
many really beautiful women.
"The Sunday Calls contest may not
produce the most beautiful woman in
California, but it will have one good
result-it will make the public ac-
quainted with some beautiful faces that
perhaps have not been noticed here
tofore.
CAUSED A SENSATION
Three years ago the most beautiful
woman I saw in Spain was a California
girl. She created a tremendous sensa-
tion there. But beauty is an elusive
thing. / knew Professor Eberlin, one
of the greatest of European sculptors.
He had model which he pronounced
the most perfect example of feminine
beauty and he declared that her beauty
should be recorded. He made complete
measurements of her figure and a
plaster cast. He. used them in the
production of his greatest works. After
two years she came back and he found
that her beauty and her proportions
had changed. So beauty of face and
figure is a transitory thing.
There are more beautiful women
seen here than anywhere else, though
the most beautiful woman may be out
side of California and belong to an
other and older race.
But taken all In all, we ought to
be very proud of the beauties that we
have. Some artists and literary per-

IT IS NOW DENIED
The Lumber Co. People Now
Deny that they Settled
With Dietz for SIS, 900.

Chippewa Falls, Wis, Sept,
21-The 100000 feet of logs
held for three years by John
Dietz of Cameron dam will be
foated to this city by the way of
the Flambeau river, the Missis-
sippi Logging company having
given the contract to w. f. Mo-
ses of Mortified. Mimi, to haul
them five miles by team from
Thornapple river to Flambeau
river. This eliminates all future
trouble with Dietz and makes
unnecessary the rebuilding of
Cameron dam to food the logs
by the Thornapple river route.
The report that Dietz has~been
paid SIS, 1000 is denied. Sheriff
Clelland still has three criminal
warrants against Dietz. which
he is trying to serve.
