French Women and Dress.

Another fancy of the spirituelle
French mondaine is that of wearing
the same house gown for each of her
| formal at home days during the three
Partisan calling months, January,
February and March, writes the Paris
correspondent In Vogue. She selects
something very elegant, very becom-
ing, very personal, something that
suits the scheme of decoration of her
reception room, that is neither, too
rich nor too modest to accompany her
interior. She carefully arranges each
accessory of shoes, jewels, couture,
and then wears 1t day after day, its
folds becoming more and more ac-
customed to every movement of her
ngure, while she gives the Impression
OF being woman OF taste and ele-
gance, yet her sartorial reserve an
nounces also that she has something
more in her head than the eternal
question of chiffons.
There is nothing more vulgar than
the idea that one must not appear
too often in the same gown. II a
gown is really beautiful, has some
real charm of line and color and tex-
ture, one does not tire OF it any more
than one does a flower. The t.crbie

fashion and We choose something
hastily that has nothing but novelty

ROLLING STOCK IN
EXCELLENT SHAPE
Canadian Pacific Prepared fol
Mechanics Strike.

Winnipeg, Man., Aug. Sit is be.
ginning to be realized now that the
Canadian Pacific railway was pre-.
pared for the mechanics strike for
some time. Locomotives and rolling
stock at present are In excellent con-
dition, the dry summer being light on
wear and tear. Besides 300 Japanese
mechanics, trained in railway shops in
the Pacific coast states and technical
schools, are arriving and being dis.
tributed where necessary. Sleeping
and dining cars are drawn up close to
the shops to provide accommodations
for nonunion labor and are guarded
by special constables. Fifteen shop
foremen or gang bosses walked out
here, declining to work with importa-
lions, only one declining to come out.
No violence or disorder has been re.
ported from any company's shop in
Western Canada. ~ -...- e..-.-..
It is not expected that the strike
will interfere in any way with the
handling of Western crops, even
though it should last until wheat
starts to move, which is not expected.
Western wheat will not begin to reach
the railroad in any volume for five or
six weeks and the Canadian Pacific
has been making preparations for
handling it. 1t is estimated that the
crop will require about 100000 box
cars and of these there are already
100000 in the West, with a CORE
spending supply Of engines. The rest
will be sent on as freight is offered
and will be. kept in the West until
they are required.
Canadian Pacific telegraphers are
seriously preparing for a strike within
a fortnight. The arbitration award
will be forwarded to Ottawa next
week and the men, do not expect to
be satisfied.

fantastic cliffs, and buttresses, and
domes of naked hard-pan that stub
bornly defy the forces Of erosion,
and refuse to crumble down. In sew
eral places there are masses of earth
architecture that remind n of the
ruined castles on the Rhine. These
bare walls are mostly of gray earth,
not rock, and the carving of them
has been most strangely done. It is
only when you climb amongst them,
and touch them, that the wonders of
erosion r fully revealed.
The hard, dry earth has most stub
bornly resisted the d%isintegrating ac-
tion of water, wind, heat ami cold,
and there are hundreds of earth cliffs
nearly as smooth and as perpendic-
ular as the brick walls of Harlem.

drop of these bad-lands from the
plateau to the waters of Snow Greek,
but ! think it is about eight hundred
feet.
After the first moments Of spell
bound wonder and amaze, you begin
to pick out the geography of what
lies before you. You see that the
axis of all this wild waste of carved
and lurrowed earth is the level. and
very narrow valley of Snow Greek,
which comes down from the west.
You can easily trace its course east
ward to the point where it bends
abruptly northward and runs into
the Missouri, PARALLEL with the last
eight miles Of He'll Creek. In the
creek bottom there is a sinuous
string of cottonwood trees, aspens
and willow brush.
