SOME DREAMFUL CONNECTIONS

Hobble skirts cost money,
when they set right. The home
maidest thing under the canopy
is a homemade hobble dress.
You know that yourself. Theat-
rical New York is all hobbling
and toddling. You should see
the dreamful CONNECTIONS, filmy
and diaphanous and just bit
contracted about the ankles,
that are the sartorial ecstacy of
Madame Sherry" These
creations are an apotheosis, an
idealization of the hobble craze,
with the illogical hideousness
mercifully yelled, the irrational
pedal skimpiness disguised under
0yerhanging frou frous of float
ing fluff. Even your husband
would like the hobble dresses in
Madame Sherry Madame.
If you hobble your feet you
must hobble your heads. You
know that, don't you, dear danes
and demoiselles? You mustn't
look top-heavy. With your ankle
department producing the effect
of haveing been drawn through
a curtain ring, your couture
mustn't be big and blowzy and
out of proportion.
AS we are instructed in ply
sizes, our line of direction
should fall within its base" sar-
torially speaking. Hence, one
must needs hobble ones hair.

How to Tell if Your Hair is
Diseased

Even if you have a luXuriant
head of hair you may want to
know whether it is in a healthy
condition or not. 90 per cent of
people need a hair tonic.
Pull a hair out of your head;
if the bulb at the end of the root
is white and shrunken, it proves
that the hair is diseased, and re-
quires prompt treatment if its
loss would be avoided. If the
bulb is pink and full, the hair is
healthy.
We want every one whose
hair requires treatment to try
Rexall "53" Hair Tonic. We
promise that it shall not cost
anything if it does not give sat

PREDESTlNATION

Below we give a little clipping
from an article in the New York
Weekly Witness of October 5,
1910. The article is headed,
! What is Predestin alton?
Judas Iscariot and priests
and Plate acted on their own
responsibility and under the gui-
dance of their own evil natures
in putting Jesus to death. They
were under no sort of compul-
sion to commit that wickedness'
but the fact that they would do
so had been known to God be-
fore the world was created and
it entered into His plan for the
regeneration of the human race. 1"
In referring to the above, we
are led to believe that under the
law of perfect freedom, persons
should have and the powell, priv
ilige and opportunity of doing diff
ferently from what they have
done.
Now if such was in Gods plan
for the above parties to do as
they did, all having peen fore
known predetermined in His
plan for regeneration of the hu-
man race, we should think, that,
the power or privalige to do
otherwise from that which they
did, was denied them, in con-
Sequence of this foreknowledge,
and predetermination.
Hence, if the above be true, we
do as we do because we could
not possibly have done otherwise.
In To Freedom of the Will we
having che power to do or avoid
doing a thing, to keep or to vio-
late the law, the choice we may
make or whether we will violate
or keep the law cannot be truly
FOreknown, otherwise we would
simply be creatures of fate
We do as we because we could
not do otherwise.
ForeknowIedge would destroy
our Freedom of making a differ
ent choice from that which was
foreknown.

HOBBLED WOMEN ARE
CARRIED TO A DANCE

Gary, Ind, Oct. 20. Five
helpless women were carried up.
stairs last night, one at a time,
into the residence of Car
Schmidt in Gary, so they could
attend a hobble skirt party Civ
en- by him.
George Clinton was the man
who played the role of Jean to
these half dozen Saphos. Gin
ton is built for the part. He
weighs 275 pounds and stretches
the tape to 6 feet A inches.
An acceptance to the hobble
skirt party required that the
guest wear a dress of that de-
sign.
Trouble began to accumulate
as the guest arrived, for Mr.. and
Mre. Schmidt live on the second
floor of the apartment at Sixth
and Jefferson streets.
1t is a physical impossibility
for a woman draped in a hobble
skirt to climb steps. and the host
was in despair until he thought
Of Clinton and the humane ele-
vator Immediately got on the
job.
It was fun the first two trips.
but after that things began to
get serious for Clinton. He was
putting like a donkey engine as
he deposited his third fair bur-
den on the second floor. He
was groaning and breathleSs as
he set the fourth safely down.
AS he staggered up the steps
making the fifth ascent, he
would have sworn that he had
climbed to Masonic temple roof
before he reached the landing.
Clinton will probably be in big
demand at similar parties in the
future.
While women cannot climb in
hobble skirts, they can dance.
Nothing can keep women from
that. In order to keep down the
pace of the escorts in the steps,
the men were also hobbled with
blue ribbon which matched the
overalls that each wore.
The feature of the menue was
chicken a la hobble."

oct. -DeWolf Hopper.

The plot Of William B. Gray's FAM
GUS pastoral play, The Volunteer Or
ganist, which is booked for this even
ing at the Fargo operahouse revolves
around a broad minded young clergy
man who falls in love with the tav-
ern- keepers daughter, and who Is man
enough to stand by the woman he
loves in spite of all the petty an
noyances and worries cast upon him
by his congregation. The climax is
reached when the organist and choir
refuse to take part in the church serv-
ices unless the young woman resigns
from the choir. The minister calls
for volunteer organist, and tramp,
who has been hanging around the VIII
lage for some time, responds to the
invitation and plays. The tramp turns
out to be long lost brother Of the
clergyman and happiness Is melted out
to all deserving of it while the wick
ed are shown the error of their ways.
