About Trained Skirts

The small things that dressmakers
use to secure certain effects should be
better known to the home sewer. The
inventive geniuses of the trade are
continually devising means whereby
they can secure certain effects, and in
many cases these little devices have
been placed on the market, so that the
home dressmaker might have the bene-
fit of them. The present modes de
mand that skirts shall have trains, and,
though they are made of soft, airy ma
terials, fashion demands that they
should cling in graceful folds. This
is managed by weighing the lower
edge of the skirt with facing of cloth
and in the back adding weighted tape.
The tape may be bought with little
leaden balls attached, and is tackled to
the lower edge of the skirt.

PORTLAND PUBLICITY PLAN
Three Firms Pay 5000 Each Month for a
Year to Help Advertise the
Northwest

An enormous amount OF attention
has been excited by the invitation to
Chicago, extended thru the ways and
means committee OF the Chicago Asso-
citation of Commerce, to send $50 Chi
cago school boys and girls for a two
months trip thru the Western states.
The commercial bodies of the whole
West are joining with the Portland
Commercial Club to insure the accept
ance OF the invitation. Hundreds oil
business men who do business with
Chicago firms are asking those firms to
cooperate with H. A. Wheeler, chair
man of the ways and means committee,
n Jackson Boulevard, Chicago, in
bringing this about. If any reader oil
this paper can help the cause by writing
letter he is urged to do so.
More than 200 citizens Of Spokane
and the Inland Empire" will reach
Portland on Saturday, Feb. 9th, enroute
to California. Immediately after their
arrival the Portland Commercial Club
will entertain the guests on a trolley
ride over the city and with reception
and dinner at night.
AS an evidence that Portland people
are more and more interested in the
advancement of the Pacific Northwest
the First National Bank and Laid &
Tilton have each notified the Oregon
Development League that their sub
scriptions for the year 1909 would be
5000 per month instead OF 500 as in
former years. This same sum is sub
scribed by the the Portland Railway,
Light & Power Co., while the United
States National Bank has advanced
from $50 to 800 per month. These
are larger subscriptions than are made
by the financial and business interests
OF any other city in the United States.

When Cold Breathe Deeply

The Family Doctor: A simple way
to get warm after exposure to cold is to
take a long breath with the mouth
shut. Repeat this several times, until
you begin to feel the heat returning.
1t requires very short time to do
this. The long breath quickens the
pulse and thus causes the blood to
circulate faster. The blood flows into
all parts of the veins and arteries and
gives out a great deal of heat. 1t is
stated that this method of deep breath
ing prevents colds and a great many
other ailments if begun in time.

Prevent Silk from Cracking

Closely woven wool goods, like silk,
should be LOOSELY rolled around a paste
board tube and covered with thin
paper when laid away for some time.
This will avoid the deep creases sure
to accumulate from the weight of the
folds. Silk will crack if left long in
folds.
