CARRY BIsQUE DOLLS
Latest Fad Among Fashionable Set
Of Paris Is to Take Babies" to
Entertainments.

New York.-Fashionable women
will carry dolls about with them this
winter.
The fad Is an importation from
Paris. where for a month women have
been carrying large bisque dolls in the
salons at social occasions and on the
streets in automobiles.
The first importations OF dolls to
enable American women to copy the
curious Partisan fad arrived here ten
days ago. They were brought over
by three fashionable Fifth avenue
establishments the heads of which be-
lieyed they could start the style In
the country. Since that time several
hundred dolls have been sold to WON.

when buying them stated that they
intended to further the fashion Of
dolls for grown-up people.
The dolls-all girl 'babies"-are
sold at from $65 to 1925 each. They
are eighteen inches high and are
dressed In the latest Partisan clothes
of the finest materials.
The establishments keeping them
make extra clothes at prices ranging
upward from s25. The only differ
ence between these dolls for grown.
up women and those for children is
that the Partisan dolls are manufac-
tured OF the finest bisque, with COM
position bodies and joints so made as
not to creak when moved.

END OF CANAL WOES.
Social Lines Drawn Closely by
Women Along Ditch.
Lack of Fellowship and Something to
Do Was Seed of Trouble-Tangie
Soon Strengthened Out by
Work.

Chicago.-There is a woman stop
ping at the Blackstone Just now who
is given credit for having done more
to help in the digging of the Panama
canal than any other member of her
own sex and most of the other. Her
name is Miss Helen Varick Boswell,
she comes from New York and she
Is the chairman OF the industrial and
social conditions department of the
General Federation of Woman's
Clubs.
Miss Boswell is the woman sent by
~ex-President Roosevelt to Panama
some three years ago with a rowing
commission to set to rights the WON
en- of the canal zone. Something was
wrong and Mr.. Roosevelt, who then
was President Roosevelt, and Presi-
dent Taft, who then was secretary of
war. were nearing their wits ends.
The government had built pretty
little white and green cottages with
~screened-in galleries and they had
fitted them throughout with the latest
style in mission furniture. The men
at the zone were putting aside more
money than they had been able to
saw in years in the states and from
a mans point of view there was no
apparent reason why the American
who had followed their hus-
bands into the zone should net be
content But they were not, and the
spirit of unrest grew until it took on
proportions of sufficient size to affect
the work on the canal.
The president and the secretary os
wal put their heaGs together and de-
termined to send a from the
states with the rather unusual COM
mission to find where lay the trouble
with her transplanted sisters. The
woman was Miss Boswell.
What Miss Boswell found was a row
of IL towns of varying sizes stretched
along the canal from Cristobal on the
Atlantic to Ancon on the Pacific. She
found 200 women far from familiar
haunts and all the things that had
mean life set down in an existence
where the line of social exclusion
vas more tightly drawn than in the
flourishing cities of the states. The
seed of discomfort vas producing a
tangle of unhappiness which was
clogging life the leisgth of the ditch.
Miss Boswell visited all of the II
towns.

This is the opinion of DR.. Amelia NJ.
Fender. who for the past few years
has been connected with the women's
and children's department in the
Moune Sinai hospital, and has made a
special study of New York people. DR..
Fender must know the secret of idle

of ten in this city knows what real
idleness is, and how very necessary to
health 1t becomes" said DR.. Fender.
Their one great Idea is to make mon

a moments rest or grant such a thing
to another person.
They are continually on the go from
morning until night, and when they
can find no pleasures ready-made they
invent them. Their brains are always
