I'm off to the summer resorts" said
a professional beauty a few mornings
ago as we slipped an apolinaris lemonade
or the COOL wide veranda and chatted
about many interesting things
Il am leaving in few days, and ]
won't be back until early in October she
continued, .and [ am taking with me
what every woman craves-namely, a
knowledge of how to look my prettiest."
Success In the beauty business,' I an
swered, consists almost wholly of how
to do the right things at the right time.
In other words, pretty Is as pretty does. =
Just now 1t is how to look and act
pretty under parasol," said the pro-
fessional beauty. IF you've ever spent
any time at summer resorts you will not
question my statement that parasol
beauty is the only thing that counts. You
sit under a parasol all day; you drive
under a parasol; you bask In the after
noon sun under a parasol, and in fact
the summer resort Is the home of the par
asol"
Certainly Rhoda, of Pagoda fame never
looked so bewitching as pretty woman
under a parasel | admit, but have never
realized the important part that the sun
shade played at a summer resort until
you have put it In this light said. III
| the parasol told all that it knew in other
words"
II have always made speciality of par
| asols," said the professional beauty, as
| she twirled the handle o. a stunning
n. a 4
the price of which might have furnished
the larder for an ordinary family for q
whole week. Il have found that the main
thing in selecting parasols is the lighting.
1t is in a way similar to stage lighting,
except that the light comes from below
instead of above"
II don't quite follow you" l admitted
that came my way had been used when
the necessity demanded.
That's easy" said the professional
beauty. when you walk without a par
asol the light falls on you from over your
head; when you sit in a drawing room
the light comes from the side or overhead;
in either case it is slightly above you.
But with the parasol beauty it is diff
ferent. Her face is lighted from below
1t is the exact reversal of the usual meth
cd of lighting the face Even the shadows
fall differently. When l first began to
make specially of parasos I remember
was going to give a garden party ]
thought, like nearly everybody else, that
a rose parasol would be the prettiest and
most becoming thing that l could find to
shade my face as ! received my guests. I
used the tiniest bit of rouge and a deal
of powder-I wasn't really painted, but
just touched up little My rose parasol
was awfully chic and I thought | was the
real thing, but when I look back now
upon that scene I know must have been
the most perfect fright imaginable. When
[ think of the shadows that covered nv
face. extending upward from my chin and
| ending in my forehead. l know / must
have looked like I was intoxIcatedr'
WAS it all due to the rose parasol
Perhaps the rouge had something to an
| swer for" l suggested.
You are right in a way" said she.

Their former rule in the state of Ten
nessee was blighting curse to this
state, and the election of Hooper as
governor would be not only a state but
a national scandal.
Democrats who have been Temporal
rily led astray had best "come on
back" They can not say that Bob
Taylor is the representative of any
clique or faction. There never was a
convention more free than that which
nominated him at Nashville.
The state of Tennessee should not be
delivered into the hands of Newell San
ders, Clay Evans and Hooper.
They represent principles that are
damned by the majority of the pro-
gressive people of the United States
and are cherished only by those who
have used the machinery Of this gov
eminent as a means of enriching Them
selves at the expense of the nation and
the nations people.-Commercial-Ap-

UTTERLY DESTROY TOWNS
Beaudettte and Spooner Entirely
Destroyed-It Is Impossible to
Estimate the Casualties

Winnipeg, Man, Oct. 10.-The death
list attending the forest fires along the
border will reach total of 1000, but
this estimate may be exaggerated.
Every settler in the district by the
Rainy River and Lake of the Woods
ON the north to twenty-five miles south
of Fort Frances, Ont, and from Spoon
er and Beaudette, Mimi, on the east
to War Road, Mimi, on the west, who
is not accounted for is certain to be
dead, as there was no escape.
For a distance of fifty miles from
Beaudette and Rainy River west TO
War Road the forest was a solid mass
# fire Sunday.
Beaudette is only a charred remnant
OF town.
Spooner is entirely wiped off the
earth, Cedar Spur, Graceton, Pitt,
Swift and Roosevelt, mere hamlets,
are destroyed.
The identified dead so far as known
date number siXty-siX.
The fire zone covers an area of So
miles, from War Road, to Stratton, the
first station east of Rainy Liver, and
in width about thirty miles,
Last night the fires were almost on
the boundary of Manitoba. Burning
over the Sprague Lumber company's
timber limits around Sprague, Man,
the fl res are making steady progress
toward the wooden district of South
eastern Manitoba. From the north
another fire is coming to join it.
The missing include some two thou
sand residents of Beaudette, Spoouer
and Pitt and adjaSent territory, some
of whom are dead, but the NEST of
whom are safe in Rainy River and adj
iacent towns on the Canadian side of
the line.
The loss, if the fires should be stop
ped today, is estimated mt s., 000, 600.
Relief trans are rushing TO the scene
of the fires with physicians and fire
fighting apparatus.

REFORM AND
THE DOUGH- BAG.

AT the first dash out of the box we
catch the old republican fox, Newell
Sanders, at his old tricks.
The republicans mean to buy what
votes they can for Hooper, if there are
any III the market.
Sanders goes to the federal of1icehold-
ers for the money. Sanders is thrift
ty campaign manager. The first move
that he always makes is toward filling
the cash boxes.
Hitchcock has already made one or
two trips to Tennessee. Hitchcock is
the chairman Of the national republic
can campaign committee and belongs
to the otliceholding, privilege-seeking
division of his party, of whom Cannon
and Aldrich are the best representa-
tives. Hitchcock will probably furnish
supplies from Washington, and Newell
Sanders is gathering in the sheckles
from Tennessee.
We call attention TO a copy of let
ter printed OH the first page of this pa
per. II is in the form of circulBr sent
out over this state. 1t was sent TO Il fed
eral of1iceholder to a postmaster who
happened to be democrat In the
veins of this democrat no treacherous
blood flowed, and he refused to contrib.
ute money for the purpose of debauch-
ing the voters Of Tennessee. The same
letter was probably sent to every post
master in the state. These men will
be forced to deliver thousands Of dollars
for the republican campaign fund.
Reading between the lines, Sanders
letter is a threat. ''The record of all
contributions will be kept" Sanders
lets them know that the list will be
furnished to the campaign committee.
If the postmaster does not "come
across" he will be marked man.
Sanders will have score to settle with
him, and he will probably settle it,
Thus begins the campaign of reform.
The republican managers of Tennes-
see are violating tie spirit of the civil
service law by seeking campaign con-
tributions from federal officers.
While Hooper is tearing up and
down the state in company with JEFF
McCarn and Gus Enloe, who are so
lost to all political shame that they
chaperon him, preaching reform, New
ell Sanders is filling the dough bag.
And yet there aresome people in this
state who will tell you seriously that
this graceless crowd of federal pie eat
ers are the holy instruments of reform
that is to come.
There is no reform in this combina-
ton of machine republicans and their
former democratic allies.
The republicans behind masked bat
teries, with their colors concealed, are
making determined effort TO capture
Tennessee.
They want the state for the good that
it may do them in the national CAM
paign of 1912. They want also to enjoy
The state offices that they may secure.
They are out for office and are out for
