JAMES A. SELL


After the candidates for Governor,
who are supposed to represent the
chief parties in the State had publicly
announced their adherence to the prin-
ciple of local option the wise course
for the Anti-Saloon League to pursue
would have been to devote its special
attention TO the candidates for state
Senator and members of the lower
house of the Legislature. 1t might
have accepted the public declarations
of the gubernatorial candidates and
busted itself about the general as
sembly. For no Governor can sign a
local option bill until it has passed
both branches of the general assembly
and unless the advocates of local op-
tion secure a majority in both houses
the Governor will have no bill before
him, Why waste effort in booming the
hopeless candidacy of Mr.. Mccormick
and allowing the legislative fight In
more than half the districts of the State
to go by default? That is not what
the people who support the Anti-Sa-
loon League pay their money for. The
identity of the coming Governor is not
a matter of any moment, so far as
the local option tight is concerned: the
Legislative battle is the supreme con-
cern. And yet the managers of the
Anti-Saloon League are devoting their
energies to the hopeless task of elect
ing Mr.. Mccormick and allowing the
chief matter to take care of itself.

CATS CAREDFOR
DURING VACATION
Society Women Organize and
Are Maintaining Animal
Rescue League.

Washington society women are not ne
eiecting their cats when they go to the
seashore or mountains this summer.
They have provided a good home for
them. Even better. they have provided
cats and kittens and dogs in the Dis
trict.
For six weeks the Washington Animal
Rescue League has been conducting a
station at 20 Decatur street northeast
and there already have been cared for or
chloroformed 347 cats and nine dogs. Two
affiicted horses also have been brought
under the kind offices of the station.
Several months ago two Washinston
society women seeing horses maltreated
on the streets of the National Capital had
their owners taken into court, where they
appeared personally against them.
From this action they interested their
friends in the misfortunes of cats, dogs
and horses In the District. and co-operat-
ing with the Washington Humane Society
organized and financed the Animal Rescue
League. with Mrs. Peter Goelet Gerry as
its first president. Many of the most
prominent society women in Washington,
including the wife and daughter of the
President, have lent their sympathies and
support to this humane effort.
Station Now Six Weeks Old.
Six weeks ago the rescue station was
opened with Miss NJ. E. Coursey, who
had seen ten years of similar service in
Boston, put in charge.
Until this week Miss Coursey has done
all the work of caring for the deserted
or afflicted animals herself. She now has
an assistant. Joseph Parker.
AS soon as the public learned that the
station was caring for cats and other
animals, notifications by telephone
poured in on Miss Coursey that her
services were needed in this or that
section of the city. and. carrying her
covered basket. she has been a very
busy woman collecting the stray cats
and kittens or chloroforming them on
the premises where they are found.
None of the dogs she has been called
to take charge of have been at all
valuable and so have been chloroformed
at once Many Of the cats have been
kept and nourished and will be given

The neckpieces and NUTS are made
up of strands of marabout and strands
OF ostrich tackled together Some
times two colors, as black and white,
natural and white. or white and the
pastel shades. are combined. Natural
color-a taupe gray-is the great IA
vorite and a wonderfully beautiful col
or. Neckpieces are usually straight
scarves, rather long. although there
are capes and stoles In some variety.
The NUTS are made up In plain
shapes, not draped or in eccentric pat
tern. which have been popular In furs.
A good marabout set will last sew

creasingly popular. It is much better
than any of the very cheap furs, in

one wants the comfortable appearance
and the real comfort of a neckpiece

in the effect, marabout is much to
be preferred to furs at the same price.

STOPPED TRAFFIC FOR PUSSY

Crossed the Street.

II was busy day In Fulton street.
Lines of trucks were bucking each 9th

ling from her mouth was a kitten.
with which she essayed to cross the
street. Each time she started she had
to turn back because of a truck, and
her efforts soon attracted a crowd OF
idlers.

liceman. He soon saw what was the
matter, and while there was nothing

its curved tail out of the mud, she
slowly and deliberately picked her way
across and disappeared in a cellar.

SEWING Room Hint.

When you are making jacket and
want to fit 1t on stand, even II the
stand is made to your measure, don't
forget to put a fully trimmed bod
ice on the stand before you. put the
jacket on it. for, OF course, the jack
ct should be fitted 80 that 1t can
be worn over any bodice without be-
ing tight; many amateurs ut their
jackets on the stand, forgetting to
put the bodice on first The same may
be said about winter bodices, that are
to be worn over thick vests or slip
bodices, If thick underclothing is to be
worn, it should be put on the stand
before the bodice is fitted.
Iron County record. [volume] (Cedar City, Utah) 1893-1982, 1914-02-13

This bodice Is not to be considered
as an example of the usual bodice
worn with the minaret gown. 1t shows
the extreme which one may expect in
some stage gowns. The sash. made OF
scarf of lace, Is an excellent idea,
but the lack of any other draping over
the shoulders than a crisp of light lace
leans. They have used these sashes
in tulle and lace, with the big bows at
the back. sparingly, and never with.
out other drapery.
The features embodied In this gown
have been repeated and developed in
other ways very successfully. Skirts
of MORE, with tunics OF chiffon edged
with marabout or fur, are very sue
cessful. Also skirts of satin or crepe
decline with chiffon tunics, and soft
lace bodies with draping and over.
sleeves of chiffon are beautiful and
effective.
Velvet dresses repeat the idea en-
ploying the velvet for the lower part
of the skirt and silk for the upper part.
Bodies OF chiffon over silk and net are
in the same color as the skirt with
guimps and undersleeves OF white
lace.
The head dress worn with the cos
tune pictured is one of the prettiest
which has appeared among the very
elaborate styles introduced early. II
is less pretentious than many designed
for the opera and 1t appears among
others that have been successful In
bidding for favor.

A MoNG the odd and novel ideas in
"a troduced in styles by Poiret last
fall few survived their introduction,
among them the minaret dress, OF
which an example is shown here. A
narrow skirt, under wired tunic,
which extends about to the knee, char
acterizes this mode. Americans called
1t theA "lamp-shade" style. which title
fits vdy we'll and explains more than
"minafet."
The tunic or overdress, wired at the
bottom to hold it away from the figure,
Is usually Of transparent or semi
trans arent material-Chiffon or lace,
sssnpiv. fne Ped
and embroidered nets Tor very elab-
crate dresses have been much liked.
But for the ordinary evening gown of
crepe, satin charmeuse and other
light fabrics, the tunic is of the same
material as the skirt, and the bodice
is made of lace combined with some
Of the material in the skirt.
In the gorgeous gown pictured here
Gan extreme of the style) the bodice
Is hardly more than broad sash of
lace wrapped about the figure and
tied in big butterfly bow at the back.
A narrower scarf Of lace passes over
the shoulders and supports the sash.
There is small embroidered panel
Of beaded net finished with three large
tassels at the middle front OF the
bodice, supported by invisible wires,
probably about the edge. These large
tassels are featured this season-an'
other one of the successful ideas OF
the designer.
