The very stout woman who aims 70
be stylishly and fashionably gowned
is, 1 know, inclined to think there
are no woes in all the world equal to
her woes; and when she is short as well
as stout she is inclined to believe her
sartorial troubles are certainly doubled
As q matter Of fact, they are. The
short. stout woman has more cause por
complaint than any other type when II
comes to questions relating to the ward
robe.
In the first place, IT is a very rare
thing to find stout woman who actually
prefers styles and colorings undoubtedly
best suited to her, as rare indeed as TO
md fat woman eating dry toast IN
preference to bonbons 1t seems per-
versity of fate that plump women always
want to eat and wear the very things
they should avoid. But il she would look
her best she is often called upon to
eschew a pretty toilet she would Just
love to wear" Her own good sense tells
her 1t will not be becoming. At the same
time she is inclined to wonder after all
whether ignorance is not better than
knowledge and to envy the perfectly
tranquil-or triumphant-air, as the case
may be, when she meets the woman who
has evidently chosen her costume TO suit
her own taste rather than with tudg-
ment.
There is 30 much satisfaction in wear
ing clothes we like, and when We have
to dress to suit our Individuality and not
our taste, we do not always appear to
the best advantage. We may feel that
We are correctly gowned, but that does
not always bring the peace of mind 1t
should To be quite at ones ease a
woman must like her clothes But the
stout woman who has been told she must
put aside all pretty colors and up-to-date
styles and wear instead dark or somber
colors fashioned into the plainest models
feels she cannot do this. Her tastes run

NEW BLOUSES ARE

The song Of the blouse Is q most alb
sorbing one, despite the periodical pro-
tests raised against the continued vogue
Of the separate garment
To accompany handsomely tailored two
piece costumes are elegant blouse bodices
developed in rich materials and garniture
rejecting not only the fashionable RAIN
bow, but in harmony with prevailing color
schemes
witching little tricks are disclosed
which makes instant appeal to the woman
who is looking for distinctive touches
which raise the garment far above the

but in all only OF feather:weight when
completed
Plain and all-over nets are employed
considerably as foundation for chiffon,
and vice versa Again, a sleeveless cor
sage is draped over a delicately meshed
lace. Narrow bands of fine French net
and lace and a crochet not unlike fagot-
ing are employed in all-ovsT effect, giving
truly airy appearance. Frequently
bands of chiffon cloth and batiste are
beautifully northumberland Net, too,
carries its padded and eyelet stitchery.
White, cream, and delicate bisQue tints
are something mingled on the same
bodice. Bisque is new this season, and
one finds it rather more becoming than
the pure white, which is usually relieved
by cream or ecru. especially among the
transparent tissues.
Black is added on many Of these
bodices, following the craze for maybe
effects. Black chiffon and narrow black
MORE ribbon are introduced at the Wrists

AIl-over laces, especially in the shadow
patterns, are in favor, and are almost
endless in variety, from those in neat.

8s We have long recognized that a
cash Gus tomer is the best asset Of
any merchant, and is entitled to a
better price than the credit Gus
TONER. Il. III Ils aiss
Ass business has been conducted,
we have really placed 4 premium on
time business. "A man with the
money to pay for his purchases is
really foolish to pay cash, for he
can&get five percent for his money
at the banks and let his account run
at the store. He is making five per
cent by 50 doing.
We need the money a great deal
more than the banks, and have de-
|cided to offer Undue ements to the
people Of this community to pay
cash for the things that we deal in.
Here's Our Plan:
We will from now on, make a
discount Of FIVE PER CENT for
cash trade. Cash trade with us
means: Cash at the time Of pur-
chase and on all 80 days accounts.
The discount will be for cash and
does not cover produce trade. .
The discount will be deducted at
the time Of purchase when cash is
paid over the counter. On 30 days
accounts, items will be charged at
Irregular prices, the discount being
/ deducted at the end Of the month
when settlement is made. FL. \.
What does this discount mean to
our customers?
Suppose our annual cash sales
/ amount to s5O,0OO.0O, it will be read
| lily seen that we have allowed to our
customers the sum Of $2,5OO.OO in
| discounts, a sum well worth saving,
We do not lose this sum, for we get
i the cash and keep turning it, making
it earn as much or more than we
have allowed in discounts, so you
lsee by paying cash we both prosper.
1 Yours for more cash business,
. The Peoples Trading Co.

Princess Sophia
 Struck Reef,
Tried Same Rock on Which the Nay May was Stranded in 1910. 30 Feet Torn Off Baton. Limped South Saturday Evening,

The Canadian Pacific Railway Company took another whack at Seminal Island, near Juneau, this week when the Princess Sophia, southbound, struck in the same spot which her sister ship. Princess May struck in the summer of 1910. From the boatmen of the Sophia, when she landed in Wrangell soufhbound Saturday, all that could be learned of the accident was that a 30 foot hole had been torn in her bottom forward and that her watertight compartments forward were keeping her ahoat. The crew expected that the Sophia would stay tied up at WrangelI until daylight Sunday morning but she proceeded on south alter g brief call.
