A Boost For The West.

Prot. Fernald, a mechanical engi-
neer who during several years has
been making fuel Investigations under
the United States geological survey,
announces the development of gas
engine that not only should solve the
smoke problem, but should be OF great
importance in the industrial world
and Of immense value to the west.
The mechanism reduces the coal to gas
In reducer that has no chimney and
needs none. The gas goes directly to
the engine and does the work of steam

gine of the gas type has been design.
ed up to 1000 horse power, and is
about to be installed upon freighter
on the great lakes. 1t is claimed for
the new engine that it not only does
away with smoke, an important con-
sideration in war vessels as we'll as
from sanitary standpoint in cities,
but it effects a saving OF one-half in
coal
The government has been making
its experiments in the effort to in
crease efficiency in the utilization of
fuel AS it uses $40, 0OO, 600 worth of
coal in u year, the problem is one of
present Importance TO the government,
aside from considerations concerning
the diminishing supply. The tests
made show that fuel OF such low
grade as to practically be valueless
for steam purposes may be econom.
ically converted into produc ,r gas and
thus generate enough power to make
1t OF high commercial value. 1t was
found that slack, bone coal and Ignite
can be used to good advantage: that
Ignite produces in the gas engine,
practically the results obtained from
the same volume Of The best bitumous
The showing made by the gas engine
not only demonstrates that it will save
one-half on the higher grades of fuel
but adds to our available supply OF
fuel the millions of tons Of low grade
coal that have been considered com
paratively useless.
The new gas engine should make
possible tremendous industrial de-
velOpment in the northwest. There
are millions Of acres of Ignite
in North Dakota and other adjoining
states as well as in the Canadian
nOrthwest-there being more than
O, ,0O0, 0OO acres underlying public
lands In this country, it is estimated
An engine that will utilize this almost
inexhaustibIe supply of fuel opens up
practically unlimited opportunities,
And Prof. Fernald says the engine is
no longer an experiment but an as
sured fact, and predicts that within a
few years it will be installed on all the
ships In our navy and will revolutions
iZe the industrial world. An engine
that will use effectively the Ignite of
the Dakotas will mean more to those
states than it is possible to estimate
at present.

Be Kind to Father

BE kind to your father, he had a hard
time
To pick up dollar and toll for dime:
He bears all the burdens and chops all
the wood:
While mother, dear mother, she goes
through the days.
Cooking and cleaning and getting the
praise!
be kind to your father-don't send him
to bed
With jeers and with rancor to ring in
his head;
He sits in the Office and sweats for the
dough,
While mother skips round where the
sea breezes blow,
And writes, Darling husband - It's
pleasant down here;
Please close all the windows if storms
come, my dear''
Be kind to your father and don't pull
his leg
Till he's almost compelled to turn beg
gar and beg;
He's chopping the kindling and earn
ing the money
And getting sweet letters from mother;
"Dear honey
Look after the kitten and feed the pet
bird,
And water the rubber plant" Lovef
Not a word!
Be kind to your father and keep him
from worry;
His life is all trouble and hustle and
hurry;
Don't beat him at breakfast and bang
him at night,
Regards to your father, and tell him
to send
A check for more money; my wad's al
an end"

A NEW SATIN

There Is a new weave of satin Just
displayed which is extra wide. 1t
has been woven for the use of the
drcssmakers who have orders for the
modified empire skirt, which Is net
gored.
This seems to indicate early In the
season that the great designers In
tend to keep to this model for the
fall styles. 1t will not he extreme,
but probably carried out on the love-
ly slender lines that the later empire
gowns show.
In this extra wide lustrous satin
there is a, new shade of golden brown
called rum. There are also dark
grays in the soft smoke and elephant
shades, and It is whispered that these
Will make up the dominant gowns.
The new myrtle tones are also of
this satin and the brilliant gendarmes
blue.
The grays will be embroidered I'm
heavy silk bullion and padded silk
floss in three shades of gray. Here
and there there will be a touch OF
silver fringe, and when the gowns
are built for elaborate evening wear
to be worn with hat. the guimpes
and long, wrinkled sleeves will be of
new coarse tulle embroidered with
silver and rhinestones.
There seems to be a good deal oil
evidence coming from all sides that
the dull grays are to take the place
of vivid colors for elaborate gowns

WHAT CLOTHES MEAN
TO wOMANKIND

That clothes have tremendous in
fuence on the feminine mind has al
ways been acknowledged, but 1t has
remained for the ultra-modern eXper-
imenters to Prove that this influence
lis vital one and can be turned to
account in ,eforming the criminal
and insane!
The poor iemented creatures who
fill our insane asylums are compelled
to wear the institutions wrapper"
hideous garment which would de-
stroy the beauty of goddess.
Several writers who have been taxi
ing up the subject lately are main
tanning that If the insane women
were allowed to wear pretty clothes
the effect upon them would be quiet
ing and helpful.
Unsightly Wrapper Kills Self Respect
| The wrapper takes away their self
respect and makes them feel that
they look hopelessly ugly. and they
do not care how they behave when
they have it On.
On the other hand, when some of
them have been dressed up" they
have Immediately shown a tendency
to have bettcf manners and behave
quietly with decorum entirely for
cign to them in their ugly garments.
or course, these experiments have
not been tried on the violently In
sane.
A French magazine recently pub
lishcd long article claiming that ex-
reformatory for women which went
to prove that the worst types of wo-
men criminals can be controlled by
the power of clothes.
The rules of this institution pro-
vide that the inmates shall dress ac-
cording to their behavior. This
means from prison stripes for the
sulky and unmanageable. to house
gowns of lace for those who prove
themselves worthy to wear them de-
corously and with appropriate man
ners.
Uplifting Power Of Pretty Clothes
The article goes on to say that no
prisoner ever wears the stripes longer
than the first week. Immediately she
begins to feel the degradation Of
them and aspires to be the best dress
ed woman in the prison.
These women are shut off from the
world and see no one but their fellow
criminals, and yet they remain con-
tented, many OF them. for years, be-
cause they are allowed to dress ac.
cording to their satisfaction.
The simple deduction from all thi.
Is that properly gowned all womcr
