were all kinds Of threats for criminal
libel, but up to the present time it has
kept the aforesaid brokers side-step-

Government is taking immediate &C

The Californian, who had the free
range of the whole state, Is doing a
lot of complaining at the Govern
ment's restrictions. mainly as it cur

the days that have passed. The same
Californian. had he been left alone,
would have denuded many a water
sed by trimming down the trees for
the sawmills. and there would not
have been the reserve to fall back on.
This sort Of conservation is one OF
the broad moves Of the government

than any other proposition on the

Treading on Toes

CALIFORNIA is worried for fear
that some of the citrus fruits may go
on the free list by Democratic Con
g~ressional action. Nevada is fearing
on o of its sheep men and lead
miners: Pennsylvania is shaking over
the iron industry all along the line.
At the same time the consumer is de-
ing a quiet smile. when he looks back
and figures the hard money he has
paid out to help make monopolies
possible by footing the tariff bill. It
would be rather funny TO see some
one else's toes crushed for a time and
the consumer getting what he should
for his cash.

Chinchilla Coats and Warts

Dear Miss Doom.
| tried the flour on my white chin
chilla sport coat and it did not
prove satisfactory. Do you think
1t would hurt the coat If l put the.
Whole thing in gasoline?
Also what could | do for warts?
l have tried several different things.
l have ten large ones on one hand.
Hoping to see my answer soon
remain, N. A.
I'm afraid you didn't give the
coat a thorough treatment. You
would need several gallons of gaso-
Inc, but I think you could clean
the coat satisfactorily If you used
care and let it soak thoroughly for
at least twenty minutes before rub
bling the soiled places between the
palms. Rinse In clean gasoline and
hang it in the air to dry.
Do not use gasoline in warm
room or near a fire. 1t is highly
inflammable.
If I were you l would take the
coat to a cleaner.
The warts may be removed with
acetic acid. Apply 1t with a tooth
pick OF the end of the stopper of
the bottle. Do not get the acid
on the surrounding skin. Lunar
caustic moistened and applied care
fully to the centre of the warts will
remove them. Be careful about
using this, too.

Lace is having exceedingly bright
prospects for coming popularity. espe-
cially black Chantilly and Spanish
lace, and the various types of coarse
meshed metallic laces.
Wide Valenciennes landings are
also having a vogue being used with
great frequency in the making OF
brim frllls in halo and lampshade
style, outstanding trimming sections
and countless novelties in decorative
motifs.
A new French model shows the
headsize finished with a pleated frill
of fine cream Bruges lace. while the
brim is made of two wide sections of
wired black Chantilly and the crown
of black velvet.
If this novel style of headsize finish
becomes popular--which 1t doubtless
will, since 1t Is In keeping with the
popular directoire idea-the already
great demand for lace trimming will
be materially increased. says the

The craze for tulle, while not quite
as pronounced as a few weeks ago, Is

THE ECONOMICAL WOMAN |

One of the habits for the woman

that of making frequent examina-
tions of the remnant counters.
If she wishes to choose the ma
terial for an evening or afternoon
gown and searches only among the
new brocaded satins and chiffons she
will assuredly find nothing under six
or eight dollars yard. s,s.
A search, however, among the REM
nants will probably disclose materials
in lovely colorings which are priced
as low as two dollars yard.
Small-figured patterns in silks, sat
ins and velvets sell for exceedingly
reasonable prices this year because
big patterns are favored, so the care
full shopper will be able to select
good colorings and materials which

counter merely because the PATTERNS

Chiffon Sleeves in Green Gown
Dear Miss Doom

Dear Miss Doom
Kindly tell me as soon as possible
in your valuable column whether
long chiffon sleeves Cream COLOR
ON a green dress will be proper for
an evening affair."
The color OF the dress is not dark
green, but ! would not call it an
evening shade. 1t is slightly
darker. The dress also has
chiffon vest.
We all find both your columns a
great help. JEAN.
1t is rather difficult for me to
advise you in this matter. as you
fail to tell me how your dress is
made, or even whether IL Is of
cloth or silk. And what sort of an
evening affair it is? If strictly
formal, full evening dress will be
required. If semi-formal. your
green gown will probaly do nicely.
