FAT WOMAN IS
OUT OF FASHION

Styles, direct from Paris, accom-
panied by an expert demonstrator
and a number of unusually pretty
live models, were shown at the dress
makers convention at the Illinois
theatre in Chicago They provide
for a corsetless, hipless, skirtless
girl, with no rats or puffs or swish
ing silk skirts and no high-heelel
shoes.
There seems to be no provision fol
fat women They are left entirely
out of the seasons styles and are
privileged to wear corsets. The wo-
man OF fashion, however, must be
slender and willowy. In place OF
corsets and skirts there is close
fitting one-piece suit of knitted silk.
This conforms to the body at every
point, and over this is slipped the
dress, which is whaleboned, girdle-
clinging underlining and dress COM
bined, and is hooked into place at
the back or at the side. 1t is split
almost to the knees, but the opening
IS concealed by deft pleats and
folds. This permits free walking.

HOUSTON RETURNS FROM
ALASKAN HUNTING GROUNDS
They brought Back Beautiful Spec
linens of Polar Animals Which
They VIII Have Mounted.

DR.. H. E. Houston and brother r.
Houston of Kalispell, returned on
No. Tuesday evening from their
Alaskan hunting trip. They both re-
port having had a most splendid
outing, secured all of the choice
game they wanted, accumulated a
considerable coat of tan and added
IL pounds each to their weight.
They hunted at the headwaters
OF the Mcmillan river, within 12O
miles of the arctic circle, and they
say it is a veritable hunters para
disc. They brought back with them
as many heads and pelts of the va
r1ous animals as the law would
allow, and having a big field to pick
from they secured some very rare
specimens.
They secured caribou, moose,
bears, mountain sheep, 20 ptar-
migans and great number of other
smaller polar animals and birds. They
were equipped with a. 3A Graflex kc-
dak and took nearly seven hundred
exposures. They got excellent pict-
ures of the game in its wild state,
and great many of beautiful Alas
kan scenery.

THE LARGEST YET,

l. B. Willoughby probably holds
the record for raising the largest po-
tatoes SO far this year. He has one
on display in the office window of
the Travelling Mems Land-Investment
company that weighs three and one
Aalf pounds. 1t is very oddly
formed potato, besides the main
body there are five good-sized knobs
on it. Mr.. Willoughby just dug his
potatoes the other day. and got over
IS bushels out of his backyard gar
den. Duke" says that if he does
mt get anything else this winter he
will have plenty of spuds, SO he
don't think that there will be any
danger of starving to death.

AUTUMN IS HERE
IN ALL ITS SPLENDOR

Jack Frost has left his finger
prints on the foliage on both noun
tain and vale. He has reached dow
and his frosty touch has shriveled
the tender garden truck, laying ev-
erything to waste, but it matters
not; the harvest is over. On the
mountains and in the forest he has
changed the costume of all the ver-
dure into bright and beautiful color
lngs. These can be noted to better
advantage along the lake shore, W hlch

low foliage. Autumn is here now
in all its splendor, and nothing is
as exhlllrating as the snappy morn
lngs and bright sunny days which

SEASON TICKETS
FOR ATTRACTIONS
FIVE STELLAR ATTRACTIONS
WILL SHOW THIS COMING
SEASON.

The Borromeo club has taken &
decided step towards advancing thu
social side of life in Whitefish b,
contracting with the Redpath Ly
ceum Bureau for the appearance
here of five stellar attractions fo1
the next season. Their main ant
only object is to furnish our towns
people with a few high-grade enter
ta1nments during the winter months
even If they lose money in the un.
dertaking. No companies or attrac.
tions OF any importance make
Whitefish without a guarantee te
come out even, and as nobody
cared to bind himself for a. certain
amount necessary to book these en-
tertainments, the Borromeo club un.
dertook to do so, hoping that the
public would appreciate their enter
prise and support them in their ef-
forts. For that reason they have
decided to canvas the town for tick
cts, emitting the holder to admis-
sion to all the shows appearing next
season. The price of a season ticket
will be $500, or 6Oc for each per-
formance. The general admission
without season ticket, will be 75c,
so that saving of 15c for each per-
formance or 75c for the whole sea-
son is made by buying a season
ticket. That means one entertain
ment gratis. In large cities people
pay gladly from $1.OO to $3.50 for a
similar entertainment. 1t is up to
our townspeople to make the enter
prise success. The window in
the postoffice gives US a vague idea
as to the nature of the attractions
coming. The first appearance will be
The Strollers Male Quartet in a va
riety OF musical numbers, vocal and
instrumental. They will be here
on Saturday, October 21. An effort
will be made to have the stores
close at 8 O'Clock that night. A
great many merchants have agreed
to comply with the request, thereby
showing their interest in the under
taking. The same was done at Col
umbia Falls last Saturday for a sim
liar attraction. We certainly don't
want to be behind the Falls in mat
ters of civic pride.

ness. The mayor, clerk and all the

day of October. The water commits
sioner collected $641.75 for water
rentals during the month of Septem-
ber. The police magistrate collected
$3.50 in fines. The street commits
sioner's report showed that he had
expended $27 on street work.
The sewer committee reported tha
the work on the sewer was progress
sing nicely and everything was be-
ing carried out according to specifi-
cations.
Ordinance No. 80, relating to sew
er connections, was referred to the
sewer committee for consideration
before final adoption.
A resolution was read creating
Special Improvement District No. 8,
to extend the cement sidewalks an
other half block on Second street,
from the alley by the electric light
office to Spokane avenue. A notice
to the property owners calling for
objections, is published in this issue
of the Pilot.
The mayor reported that the
electric light company is about to
install the new motor in the pump
ing station, and asked for permission
to move one of the engines so as to
put the motor on the foundation.
This was granted.

THE ELATHEAD FAIR
WILL BE GREATEST EVER
1t commences Next Tuesday, October
10, and Will Continue Until the
End of the Week-Everything in
Readiness for the Big Display.

The Kalispell fair begins Oct. 10
and the officers of the fair say that
the prospects for large attendance
were never better. The additional
display facilities are also expected
to bring in a much larger exhibit
than ever before seen and the new
buildings will show off the exhibits
In the very best possible manner.
On Tuesday the exhibits will be
installed, and on Wednesday every
thing will be ready for the big show.
The race program starts on Wednes-
day afternoon with five running
races, and there will also be a num-
Der of special attractions in front of
the grandstand, and the days pro-
gram will wind up with a bronco
busting contest by experienced rough
riders On Wednesday an apple
packing contest will be held in front
OF the grand stand. The apples will
be furnished to the association by
John c. Wood, and the packers will
sort and pack their apples in regula-
ton boxes in view of all spectators.
The judging of all exhibits will al
SO start on Tuesday, and will be
completed on that date If possible.
It Is expected that such a complete
program of running races will help
to materially swell the attendance,
as the public has been loud in its
praises of straight running pro-
gram.
1t Is expected that the poultry ex-
hibit will be double, owing to the
better accommodations. and the or
ganization of the local poultry asso-
citation tends to stimulate interest
in this department.

PEANUT ROATSER
MYSTERIOUSLY DISAPPEARS

The delicious odor of buttered pop
corn and roasted peanuts which has
pervaded the atmosphere in the vi
clnity of Central avenue and Second
street the past few months is now
conspicuous for it's absence, the
roaster having disappeared with the
aforesaid odor, and with the disap-
pearance of the roaster thereby
hangs a tale
To begin with, Mr.. Flanders, pro-
prietor of the roaster, kept
his machine in a small booth-like
box just large enough to accommo-
date himself and the rooster, and
was located at the above
named stand.
The popcorn and salted peanuts
had caused him to cultivate an appe-
tlte for more fastidious luXuries, and
he found that his income did not
overlap his outgo, and those who
had been financially kind to the pop
corn merchant became anxious, and
finally placed an attachment on the
booth containing the supposed nut
wagon. Flanders did not put in his
appearance to satisfy the plaintiffs
SO they proceeded to take pos
session, only to find that the booth
was empty and the beautiful little
glass wagon gone.
The plot thickens, and the mys-
terry is how did he get it without
being discovered, as the booth is
situated in the busiest section of the
city, and the night officer who trav-
els that beat has been noted for
his faithful performance of his Off
cial duties.
1t is said, however, that Flanders
received police protection by brib-
ing the officer with popcorn balls.
and about the time the roaster
was supposed to have disappeared
the officer is said to have been seen
standing on the corner in an appar-
emily dazed condition with two par
TALLY consumed popcorn balls COW
cred with New Orleans molasses, one
IN each hand, and it may have been
that the popcorn was "dcped", and
That 1t was at this time that Flan-
ders kidnapped the roaster.
Be that as it may the affair ia
shrouded In mystery, but no blame
Is attached to the officer, other than
that he should not allow his appe-
tlte to cause him to neglect his
post even in the face of a runaway
popcorn roaster.

HILL 10uVE
N MONTANA
WILL BUILD HIMSELF A HOME
IN GLACIER NATIONAL
PARK.

L. w. Hill, president of the Great
Northern, who was visitor in Hell
ena at the state fair, announced
that he had decided to become

contracted for summer hqme in
Glacier National park, and is now

south of the Blackfeet reservation.

Il will, of course, have to spend
much of my time in st. Paul, but
Montana will be my home. l like
Montana. Why, out here you have
somebody to vote for. Back there,
you don't like either of the candi-
dates. Here you have some live
wires, some of my kind of men, and
when the next election rolls around
l will cast my vote for governor of
Montana"

Glacier National Park, and he is as
usual enthusiastic about the new
"The Yellowstone park has closed
for the winetr," he said, "but we
have just opened our season which
you might consider a rather bold
thing to do. But the weather is
ideal. Yesterday made a 15O-mile
auto trip. Those stories sent out
about Mrs. Hill and myself being
snowbound are ridiculous, and !
cannot understand where the report

we are building the largest log

tional park, and that already the
park is becoming recognized as one
OF the show places Of the globe.

today addressed the following telegram
from Skbo castle to the London Of
flee of the Associated Press. u aaj NJ
My view Is that tnex indictment or
the directors or the steel wire compa-
MES is made in strict obedience with
the law, but the result of the trial
Will determine whether It will be cor
rect. The punishment or release of the
directors, however, Is OF trifling. mo-
ment.
what we must recognize is that
combinations do take place and that
these cannot be allowed to determine
prices. The court OF commerce. which
is already regulating railway charges,
Will be found amply sufficient to reg

one result OF all this agitation, and
that is that the court Of commerce will
have access to all papers of Industrial
