There is foundation garment of
white satin caught up at the front and
hanging in about the feet. Its high,

new gowns, 1t rises toward the back.
But this is counterbalanced by the
border Of marabout which outlines the
upper tier of lace and makes the re-
Quired line, falling at the back, a pro-
nounced feature of the design. This
border outlines the shoulder and APP
pears as stray, supporting the bodice.
Satin slippers with silver buckles,
worn with white silk stockings,
muff of marabout and an eccentric hat,
complete the toilette. Taken altogeth-
er with the hat as keynote. 1t re-
minds one Of the lady Ophelia afflicted
with temporary but pleasing crazy

the hat, which is not to be considered
by any one whose type is less suited
to It than the young ingenue who is
posing in it and looking out upon
something-with such childshly en-
curing eyes.
The marabout muff IL plain and in

because all such frivolity needed by a
toilette in which the gown is CORE

This toilette would be pretty worn

more satisfactory in the long run. 1t
is adapted to all demi-dress affairs and
easily made available for full dress by
a little additional garniture and diff

Wide gossamer lace flouncing is
used for yelling the satin foundation
garment. There are many similar

William j. Bryan has been for
years disappointing his critics
through the wisdom of his obser-
vations upon the problems before
the American people. He has
lately been portrayed as likely to
be insistent upon occupying a
place in the cabinet of the next
president of the United States.
Against that imaginative attitude
it will be we'll to place the follow
ing comment by Mr.. Bryan in
the Commoner:
Cabinet positions ought not
to be regarded as currency with
which to pay debts. They are
responsible positions and in filling
them the president-elect should
look to the future and not to the
past. A public official has no
right to discharge political obi
cations at the expense of the
public. The man selected by Mr..
Wilson for the cabinet should be
selected, not because of personal
service rendered to him, nor even
because of past service rendered
to the party. The individual
counts for little; the cause counts
for much. An individual, if he
had proper motive for working,
finds sufficient compensation in
the triumph of ideas, principles
and policies; he does not need the
consolation of Office" 4

Easter Sunday in 1918 falls on
March %, which is earlier than
any year since 1918, or for the
past 95 years.
Easter is governed by the moon.
Easter always falls on the first
Sunday after the first full moon
after the vernal equinox, which
is the 21st of March. Therefore
Easter could not fall earlier than
March 22. Easter can not come
later than April "a, which has not
occurred since 1859. In 1905
Easter fell on April %. Easter
will not fall again as early as the
coming year until the year 1000.
Therefore Easter bonnets will be
in demand very early the coming
spring, but the same thing will
not occur again for 81 years.

ming of Lent will be Feb. 5, AS

"A falr sample OF the reckless
misstatements which are habitual
to most of the upholders of the
Pinchot school of political conser-
vationists is in a recent editorial
in the st. Joseph Gazette, of
which the following is a sample:
From the very inception of
the idea of conservation (which
is another word meaning econ
omy, elimination of graft and
waste) the lumber corporations.
the stockmen's corporations and
the Incorporated mine owners and
spectators and certain manufac-
turing interests have bitterly op-
posed it. Their sole object is
known to be, when a mass of
sophistry and Misrepresentation
of conditions was peeled off, con-
tinuation of theft of range, theft
of timber, theft of water, theft
of mineral rights"
In Missouri the public land has
long since been disposed of.
Naturally the Gazette knows
nothing at first hand of condi-
tions which actually prevail in
the states where great forest re-
serves have been created.
AS every resident of the states
where the great forest reserves
exist knows, the large owners of
timber lands and the big cattle
men have notopposed the Pinchot
conservation scheme of tying up
all of the remaining public lands
in reservations. For thoroughly
practical reasons they have been
the heartiest supporters of those
plans and have contributed liber-
ally to aid in the forming of pub
lie sentiment to favor them. The
creation of the forest reserves in
this state, for one example, has
quadrupled the value of every
tract of timber land in private
ownership and added millions to
the wealth of the big timber land
owners, at the expense of the
users of lumber, without saving
from destruction a single forest
tree.
In other public land states the
cattle and sheep men have worked
for and procured the creation of
forest reserves over vast areas
which contain no timber at all, in
order that they could secure graz
ing privileges thereon and ex-
clude settlement therefrom.
Further, all of the "thefts" of
range, Of timber and of water
have been made under cover of
federal laws, administered by
federal officials. Seattle P.-I.

to purchase parts of the timber,
which is located on the west
branch Of Priest river and along
Moore's creek, covering some 49,
acres of land in the national

mean a great deal of activity in
the district in the next few
years, as under the terms of the
sale the timber must be removed
at a rate of not less than 30,00O,-
