stery stuff and velvet ribbon are some
of the weaves that are used to drape the
waist. Another piece of ingenuity is to
have bands of satin and galloon begin in
the middle of the waist line and drop
over the hips, ending in the middle of the
back. A young girl worked a dance gown
Of tornado pink satin with these bands OF
gold ribbon.
This seems like a simple trick and one
may not clearly see at first how it length
ems the waist line, but it has been tried
out and with SO much success that it is
wasting time to doubt. The bands are
drawn rather closely around the figure,
below the waist. and they take away
from the old-f shioned effect of an en-
pire line and they also hold in the full
ness of a modern skirt when 1t has been
proved that this fullness is not attrac-
tive.
The average woman is as interested i'll
her blouse as she is in the coat suit
itself. She wants to know what is the
best thing to wear with a plain and
ornate coat and skirt. She may have
one or two that have served through the
autumn, but she wants new one. She
may not be the kind that chooses a one
piece frock; she may prefer the variety
of a separate blouse.
IL she is athletic in her type, she has
a simple solution of the problem in the
blouse usually known as riding shirt,
made of heavy white China silk, with
q deep shoulder yoke, a line of gathers
across the front and large pearl buttons
The sleeves are long with narrow turn
over cuff and under the turnover collar
is a manniSh cravat run through with
scarf pin.
Although this sounds like garment
for wear I'm the country, there are
large number of well dressed women who
have decided upon it as the best kind
of a. blouse to wear with d coat suit OF
tweed or heavy cloth.
However, this is not the kind OF blouse
in which one would wish to appear at a
luncheon or any afternoon affair 1t Is
strictly for housewear or for the morn
ing hours on the street. There are many
other choices, although the white muslin
blouse of other days seems To nave no
place in the modern scheme IL was eA-
ceedlngly popular during the summer
months, but has dropped out.
The surplice blouse is very much IN
favor. made with kimono sleeves tnat

No matter how elaborate the gown, a

matches the skirt. This fashion Is
probably brought about by the fact

Start Campaign
For Better Markets
Propose to Organize Merchants
Association Throughout the
State of North Dakota

Grand Forks, n. d., Nov. 10
That there is just as much need
for Better Merchants asso-
citation" as there is for better
farming association now main
tained in North Dakota, is the
theory on which new movement
has been launched in the state,
and out Of which it is expected re-
suits of Importance to the indust-
rial interests of the state will be
obtained.
Better marketing facilities for
the farmers, who are being urged
to take up diversified farming, is
the prime object sought through
the proposed Better Merchants
association.
Farmers have complained in the
past that they have been unable
to obtain a satisfactory market fol
their products when they went
outside of the realm Of grains.
That fact has had a tendency to
discourage, in a measure, the ef-
fort Of the farmer to take up
truck-raising, while the same hole
true Of dairying products and
cattle, The local demand has, it
is contended, governed to too
great an extent the market price
offered farmers.
The founders of the new move
ment have proposed no definite
method Of organization as yet,
but they have begun publicity

object the creation of a sense of
duty on the part Of the merchant

Moody county where her first
trial was held, with Judge E. G.
Smith, now a member of the state
supreme court, presiding. After
a trial lasting three weeks Mrs.
Kaufman was convicted of man
slaughter in the second degree.
She was never sentenced on
this change but took an appeal ant
was granted new trial., which
also. took place at Flandrean, the
seat Of Moody county, the Sec
ond trial being as hard fought as
the first. 1t resulted in her con-

fine of $1OO being imposed. judge
Rice of Deadwood presided at
the second trial.
Mrs. Kaufman then resumed
her residence in Sioux Falls and
remained here to the time of her
death. Moses Kaufman her
husband, died on the streets a
year and half ago. Charles, a
son, survives.

against Mrs. Kaufman after her
arrest that she narrowly escaped

populace about the courtroom
