c. C. TO MEET
THIS EVENING
Regular Monthly Session Will Be
important One

The monthly meeting Of the execu-
tive committee OF the Copper Country
Commercial club will take place this
evening when matters of much i'm
portance viii be up for discussion.
Among the outside people who will be
present are the president OF an auto
mobile concern that is contemplating
locating here and Samuel J. Nestor Of
Toledo, o., who has been engaged to
organize credit bureau.
Probably the most important ques-
tion that will be discussed will be the
bonding OF Houghton county for the
purpose Of improving the roads in this
district. AS the board Of supervisors
is in favor of the subject, It is probable
that the committee simply will adopt
measures calculated to hasten the
issue.
To Discuss Map of Roads.
Secretary George l.. Price Of the
club is in receipt Of a letter from
Thornton A. Green of Ontonagon re-
questing that the Commercial club
take some action along the line Of Sc
curing the consent Of the publishers OF
road maps to place the copper country
on their plats. In his letter Mr.. Green
stated that a map published by the
Auto Blue Book company OF Chicago
includes the roads in the upper PENN
sula only as far as Marquette Inas-
much as the roads In this district are
to be improved he feels that the next
publication should show the copper
country's highways.
1t is likely that the proposition of
endeavoring to influence large land
holding companies to use this time to
clear their lands will be discussed and
action doubtless be taken.

The Right Idea


Join the Saving Club of the

one dollar a week, or two dollars,
or as much as you can regularly
save. This, at compound inter.
est, will grow in ten years to a
large amount.
Only one dollar a week for ten
years, compounded, will amount
to $672.80. What amount will
you save every week?

AVOID INSTRUMENTATION.

Over-ornamentation is the greatest
sin of poor dressing Walter Besant
once said: "In entering a room,
the part of it's furnishing that seems
to rise up and meet you is the thing
to remove"
He was authority on interiors and
he always advocated subdued ele-
gance rather than fragrant display.
Others feel much the same about
dress. An obvious display Of jew
elry is too snowy and borders on
vulgarity.
Any woman who wears rings
should keep her hands in the most
perfect condition. Anything more
homogeneous than rings with neglect
not be imagined.
The artistic dresser is the one
who chooses her accessories with
taste; the careful dresser sees that
her accessories are always in good
condition. and the perfect dresser
combines all these qualities.
First of all, woman should Sc
lect Ter clothes with taste and dis
elimination, heroically avoiding over
ornamentation and articles of dress
that are too outre.
Shakespeare summed it all up in
lines:
Costly thy habit as thy purse can
buy,
But not expressed in fancy; rich. not
gaudy:
For the apparel oft proclaims the
man"

CLEANING cRUETS.

Bottles which contain vinegar

If this is not done it will be found
that the acid will stain the glass. and
considerable difficulty will be expe-
rienced in removing the marks.
Should this, however, occur. in the
case of cruet cut-glass bottles, a
spoonful of ammonia should b.
mixed with an egg shell-finely

Becoming Gown, Low Cost

Over this was loosely adjusted a
covering of white chiffon and the
whole tackled to wide girdle waist
band Around the very low neck was
interspersed with brilliants and the
same finish adorned the edges of
the sleeves. which fell away in mar
row points to the elbow.
Now, taking the two embroidered
bands she folded them around the
waist. making a high girdle and
closing it invisibly in the back.
Things We're now beginning to look
interesting and as the work went
successfully on she began to enter
tain hopes for the skirt.
From a piece of green cambria was
cut an underskirt extending to the
knees and. ripping the front of the
satin skirt from the train portion,
She fuled it as much as possible on
10 the waistband.
The part which made the train
;he turned upside down and gathered
in to the back in a twotiered hustle
effect. tie second draping being just
below the knee line and pulled in.
She discovered that this draping
COX all the satin she had. In order
to finish out the lower back breadth
the sleeves were pressed into ser
vice. To hide the piecings she put
the bias fold from the bottom or
the skirt in four overlapping scanty
ruffles.
The extreme plainness of the front
of the skirt was disposed of by two
motifs adjusted lengthwise, one over
each hip.
From under the lower front corner
of these motifs a part Of the tassel-
ed sash was gathered.
AS she looked upon the work she
knew instinctively that the modest
outlay for a bit of net and yard
or so of chiffon, together with some
patience. had resulted in establish
ing a becoming gown.
The Alaska citizen., 1914-07-27

The old adase of Keep thing,
its use will come" must surely have
been applied to clothes, for ii seems
that from even tie relics of former
DAYS some women can work marveis.
This is how one woman achieved
the well-nigh impossible with an I'M
becoming gown of gronze satin ae-
CURED some years before and sinp',
put away because she didn't like IT.
says the Philadelphia Ledger:
The waist was tight-fitting, with
long mousquetaire sleeves. Over
each shoulder, forming ' both
back and front. ran straight bands
of the satin six inches wide, heavily
embroidered in two shades OF green
and gold threads
f ere were two beautifully EN-
broidered motifs about nine inches
long and five inches wide, with pro
trudine corners like little claws. One
of these finished the flat shoulder
folds at the front waist line and the
other was similarly placed in the
back. The yoke and collar were of
heavy oldfashioned lace.
The skirt was of a most peculiar
shape. as the front width was all in
one piece, running back to the full
train. and was fitted by means Of
darts to tie figure.
Around the bottom was siX-inch
bias fold and a narrow girdle ending
in long tasseled ends was folded
round the waist.
The only rays of hope the entire
gown held out We're the shoulder
pieces and the two motifs. Around
these bits of embroidery she decid-
ed to build her gown.
The lace yoke was cast aside as
beyond redemption; in fact, the en-
tire waist. with the exception OF the
embroidery pieces and the sleeves,
was hastily hidden away as calcu-
lated to be anything but source
of inspiration On a sleeveless foun-
dation of flesh-colored net she be-
gan to build.
