LARGE Waists.

The Venus of Milo dressed in
Partisan modes might pass muster
now; thirty inches is none too big now
for waist Paris made the law and
every one followed it joyously; even
the stays, pull as you may, will not
give you a small waist. It is even
rumored that French women pad the
front of the figure to cause it to ap
pear straight, but the one desideratum
is to keep the hips to the straight
line.
Catherine de Medici when she in,
troduced the bone corset, made thir.
teen inches the right size for the
waist, and many a woman at court
sacrificed her life to attain it, There
is no necessity to have long bones to
keep in the hips; coutil or brocade
may be cut so as to confine the dimen.

ExhnrtInn the pucks.

There are two tiny boys in this town
whose mother sings often to them at
their request, and as she is an ardent
church woman, the children hear as
many hymns as anything else. The 9th
er day they were playing with their
wooden ducks in the bathtub, and
strangely enough the ducks were more
inclined to float sideways than in the
approved manner. After several at
tempts to keep the misguided ducks
straight the older boy shouted:
Stand up, duck, stand up" Then
two-year-old, noting the familiar
phrase, leaned over the tub and eX-
horted: "'Tand up, duck 'Tand up
for Jesus!"

monogram paper can be used, the
stamping being done in gold or silver
unless to match a special decoration.
A 25-cent handkerchief will take
quite a new air If the initials Of the
owner are embroidered on 1t. The
lettering for ordinary ones is in small,
plain letters across one corner; for
more elaborate ones a monogram or
initials inside medallion is preferred.
Bureau covers, table scarfs, linen
pillow slips, and centerpiece which
can be picked up cheaply at white
sales will look vastly better if market
with initials.
Bolster rolls of plain linen are bet
ter looking if they have three fiye-inch
initials worked in the middle They
should be heavily padded to stand in
bold relief.
The girl who has little time for
fancy work should learn only to en-
broider initials. It does not take long
to mark ones belongings, and it in
creases their beauty.
See that the padding is regular and
well rounded and that the covering
for the satin stitch is taken firmly
with stitches close together, but not
overlapping, and with edges even.

The Spring Hat.

The spring hats have arrived and
they differ from the hats Of the pres.
ent season in that they are worn at
such an angle that a fringe of hair is
shown about the cheeks and temples,
softening the outline Of the features.
This feature is settled. The hats will
be worn off the face. Even where
there is a modification of the mush-
room shape in the crown, the brim is
turned back or is tilted off the face.
Another point is settled and that is
that the shapes will be large. The
large hat is more youthful and for that
reason popular with women. Even
when the new straw is turban 1t Is

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. OBSERVED

Tomorrow is Mothers day and will
be properly observed by the residents
and in the churches of Bemidji.
Special programs will be given in
at least one Bemidji church, and
white carnations, emblems of the day
will be worn by many.
Mothers day was first observed
four years ago by Miss Anna Jarvis
of Philadelphia on the first anniver-
sary Of her mothers death. The
thought came to her that all mothers,
whether living or dead, should be
honored each year.
So interested did Miss Jarvis be-
come in the plan that she began to
further it by writing to churches,
societies, people in official positions
and al whom she thought would in
terest themselves in the movement,
with the result that now many gov
ernors, as Governor Eberhart did,
issue proclamations officially nam
ing May IA, Mothers Day and its
observance tomorrow will be almose
universal throughout the United
States and Canada.
