Ing the public, members Of the family
OF Dorothy Arnold, who disappeared
from her homo Dec. II. now say that
Mrs. Arnold, the mother, did 70 to
Florence to see George 8. Griscom,
Jr, who, they believed, might know
something OF her movements.
They also admit, or, rather, profess,
that Mrs. Arnold Is now In Europe,
stopping with two omen whose home
is usually at Florence. but who, they
say, may have moved away from there
in the last few days.

Griscom's hotel in Florence, Italy. Jan.
Is, a month after Mr.. Griscom had
cabled that he knew nothing about
D~orothy's whcrea bouts or motives for
leaving home and renewed requests
for information. Lorenzo d. Arm
strong. who has superseded his law
partner, John s. Keith, as the ccmmu
nicator between the family and the
newspapers, said that while Mrs Az
mold obtained no news from the Pitts
burg clubman she had been unwilling
to return home.
Mr.. Armstrong says that there ap-
pears no good aso for longer with
holding the facts that folders and sail
ing schedules OF half a dozen Atlantic
steamship lines were found among
Dorothy's papers and letters and that
this fact, coupled with discovery Of
letters from Mr.. Griscom, had led the
family to believe for a time hat Dor

In speaking OF Mrs. Arnold's trip
abroad in search OF her daughter Mr..
Armstrong said that he did not believe
she had found a trace Of the missing
girl.
II want to say that she doesn't know

7I7o Twc-Piece Corset Cover for
Misses and Small Women,
L. 10 and "a vrarH-

The cOrsrt cover WItu lue straight
upper edge that can be cut from en-
broidery is one that is exceedingly
we'll liked. This one is made with
seams at the center bach and under
the arms, consequently there is little
fullness at the waist line. In the il
l%ustration. it Is Joined to a peplum,
but 1t can be finished with a straight
belt, if preferred. The corset cover is
especially adapted to embroidery but
can be used for any material with the
edges trimmed to suit the fancy.
The pattern consists of two pieces,
corset cover and peplum. The front
edges of the corset cover are fin
ished with hens and the closing can
be made with buttons and b~uttOnholes,
or invisibly by means Of a fly. When
the corset cover is made Of plain ma
teriaI. the upper edge should be fin
ished with beading threaded with rib
bon to regulate size.
For the 1G year size will be required
/ "a yards of embroidery IA inches
wide with 3-S yard Of plain material
So, or 1 Is yards of plain material SO,
IS yard A inches wide.
The pattern. No. 1920. is cut in sizes
for misses of II, IS and IS years of
age. and will be mailed to any address
by the Fashion Department of this

Gambling In Wood.

any log that looked all right so far as
we could tell If the inside was sound
we stood to make good profit. but
worm holes or rotten spots at the core
would mean heavy loss. Not until
we got the log to this country and got
