Getting All 1t Was Entitled To.
Mr.. D. j. Averitt, an old confed-
crate veteran who had been clerk
ing for Leben, the baker, since last
April, was arrested a few days ago
on a charge of larceny after trust.
He declined to give bond, which he
could have done, and was taken to
Jail. He reconsidered later, how
ever, and was released under a $500
bond Monday afternoon.
1t is alleged that several bills that
had been marked and passed in the
bakery were found IL his possession.
He also had about $3.50 in bank,
which he had deposited since coming
to Dawson several months ago.
Mr.. Averitt, who came to Dawson
from Texas, brought some money
with him, and also draws a pension as
a confederate veteran. He was work
ing at the bakery for his board and
lodging. He denies his guilt. and
says he will prove his innocence.

temporarily filling the place, will
likely succeed him.

NO MORE DELAY.
Another Expert Matchmaker Added
to Force at Adams Jewelry Store.

On account of the large amount of
repair work brought in it has been
impossible to get all of it out with
out some delay and it has grown to
such proportions that we have had
to add another expert matchmaker
to our force, and from now until
our increase again makes it impossi-
bic to keep up We will turn out your
work on record time.
The increase under existing condi-
TONS has surprised us, and only goes
to show what a reputation for square
dealing and first-class workmanship
will do.
We invite those who have had
work done and had to take it back
half dozen times to have it done
over to leave it at Adams Jewelry
Store, where the experimental stage
is over with, and quit worrying.

Girl Has Baritone and
Soprano Voices Combined

high A, and with trifie of strain even
the high G.
A medical inspection showed that al
though in all other respects the pos
SCISSOR Of the double voice was a proper
ly developed female, the larynx and
vocal chords were much larger than
those of ordinary females, the vocal
chords being particularly unusual.
The only deficiency in the female
voice was that there were apparently
some small gaps in the middle of the
female compass. From the middle G
to c the notes were somewhat hoarse
and strained.
1t was concluded by the medical fac
ulty which considered the case that in
contrast to other cases of female bari

this was case of a female actually
born with male larynx, and that no

evidence to show whether the young
woman would also retain her clear and
soprano compass.

SPECIAL SUGGESTIONS
FOR STOUT WOMEN

To prevent a skirt from standing
out at the lower edge of the front
breadth, as it so frequently does in
the case of a woman with a prominent
abdomen, take Vshaped dart about
four inches in length on the side of the
front gore crosswise, three inches from
the top in the lining, and haste the
outside material over it. If the skirt
is unlined raise the back cores up I'M
der the belt about two inches, or morx
if necessary. and it will draw the full
ness backward.
Always fit the top of large WON
ans skirt before turning it up around
the lower edge; never fit a skirt too
tightly at the waistband, and always
leave from one, to two inches of the
material at the top of the skirt to
crowd into the binding at the waist
line. Before finishing shrink this full
ness. To do this lay the skirt on an
ironing table and place a dampened
cloth over the material, doing a few
inches at time. Pass a hot iron over
this repeatedly; then remove the cloth
and press the material in a curve un-
til all the fullness is shrunken. Should
the material look glazed from pressing,
sponge lightly and press again. This
depressing while damp will form steam,
which should remove such spots.

BERLIN, November 13. Doctor
Scheier, the well-known laryngologist,

cal Society this week a remarkable case
of bass voice in a young girl, which
had come under his notice According
to the etiqutte of the profession he was
obliged to conceal the name of the
young lady in question, which is likely,
however. to become known before long.
1t appeared that when the young girl
reached her sixteenth year and was
developed into youngladydom her pref
ty soprano voice suddenly broke, like
a boys, but instead of passing through
the uncomfortable stage in which boy
looks and feels such fool, the female
voice was changed quite suddenly into
full and rather deep baritone. The
young women spoke with bass note
and could sing right down to the
lower c.
Startled by this popularity, her pa
rents tested her on the high notes, and
found that she had kept also the
soprano compass, easily reaching the

The American Girl
Now Being Heard From

course, that it can be made to serve
with any dress desired, but, on the
other hand, a pettieoat of the shade of
the skirt with which it is to be worn
is more attractive and always more
youthful. This skirt should have a
gcred poke at the top, so that the
overskirt will fit neatly. A petticoat
gathered into a ribbon or tape string
tied about the waist is as great a det-
riment to a handsome dress as an I'M
becoming veil on a pretty hat. Even
the smallest girl should have her I'M
derskirt well fitted and carefully
made For economy's sake there should
be an underhOunee of muslin or perea-
line beneath the deep silk ruffle to
keep the skirt from wearing out in the
distressingly short time that a silk
skirt usually does go to pieces. Really,
the Importance of good underskirt
can not be too strongly emphasized,
for without it the most expensive dress
will hang but poorly, and nothing is so
unattractive as an ill-hanging short
dress.
Shawl collars or else unusually wide
reyers are seen on the majority of
tailor coats for young girls, and with
the small sleeve now fashionable a
wide rever is essential to give breadth
across the shoulder line. These revers
may be of corded silk, of MORE, of
panne velvet or of the material itself
with soutache braiding or rows of
stitching. On many of the newest
coats the silk or whatever material is
used for the revers is carried down as
a facing the full length of the coat
The sleeves may be finished as the reg,
ulation coat sleeve, with few bands
of stitching and two or three cloth but
tons, or, if preferred, may be adorned
with two-inch cuffs of the same mate
rial as the collar and revers. Rounded
and cutaway effects are still occasion
ally seen, but the long straight coat
front is evidently more popular at
present. Often the turned-down collar
Of the cloth itself, while revers and
facing are of silk the shade of the ma
terial. Dark Innings, very nearly the
color Of the coats on which they are
placed, are fast displacing the white
satin that remained in favor for so
many years.
Not only must the street walking
dresses be smart and carefully chosen;
the evening wraps must also be accord
ed due consideration and thought. A
pretty evening cloak is every bit as
important in these days as the dainty
frock which it protects. White cloth,
with wide collar and cuffs of soft
white, makes an adorable cloak for a
young girl not yet out, while if it is
desired to wear the wrap occasionally
during the daytime on the way to
dancing school or afternoon party,
darker shade, deep rose, japanese blue
or perhaps bright scarlet, would be
better investment. This cloak, if to
be worn perhaps in a public convey
ance, should be half fitted with long,
rather full, coat sleeves and reach
quite to the end of the dress. If, how
ever, a girl is so fortunate as. to have
carriage or an auto always at her
disposal, looser wrap would be per
haps smarter.

color will make a hopeless failure Of 1t.
The chief color of the rug should be
the chief color of the walls-not neces-
sarily the same tone, but harmonixing
tones of the same shade. If the walls
are a soft yellow, a rug with different
shades of brown, and to give the need
ed note of contrast, duh soft red and
blues, would look well in the room.
This kind of rug would also go well
with green or blue walls. The proper
ton of the different colors in n rug
may make or mar it for one s special
use. In choosing rug it is best TO
have feeling of one predominant
color, with the other colors adding the
snap that contrast gives, and forming

A floor should be the lowest or dark
est tone in a room, then the walls, and
the ceiling the lightest or highest. This
is the natural way and the safest 20
follow, as a general rule. 1t gives 4
feeling of firmnes and solidity to the
floor. The floor should support
the walls in color, but care
must be taken not to make the mistake
of thinking that strength of color is
obtrusiveness of color. Strength of
color in the right place will make the
scheme of decoration successful and
