Four Styles Of Hats Which,
According oMr. Malsin, No
Stout" Woman Should
Wear If She Wishes to
Look Less "Stout."

II a stout woman were consider.

TO heraelf when gazing in the mirror
and not the appearance she makes
to those around her. she would
choose a veil with vertical stripes.
Such veil would create Tor her
own eyes an illusion OF thinncsG,
but 1t would not affect in this IA.
vorable way the appearance she
made to others. In fact, as have
said before. veil with q plain
mesh is much 20 be preferred TO
one with stripes or any other pro.
nounced pattern
This completes the necessarily
brief summary Of the scientific prin.
ciples which can be applied TO the
clothing OF stout women in order to
make them look less stout.

clear and in demonstrating the
importance Of applying them in
telligentiy to the problem of dress.
believe have made notable
contribution not only to the good
looks OF large percentage OF
American women but also to their
good health.
1t is worry about the appearance
they make rather than concern
about their health which leads
many women to undertake reduc-
ton treatHents that are often ex.
ceedingly harmful Now that 1t is
possible for a woman to create an
illusion OF height, grace and
slenderness by simply choosing the
proper clothes she no longer need
go to war with Nature over the too
generous layers of flesh, with which
she has been endowed.

An Example of Type of Hat Which Is
Suited to a "Stout" Woman Only When
the Lines of the Brim Are Softened
as These Are.

instead OF modifying 1t.
After the size, shape and color
OF the hat have been decided upon
the next consideration is to find
one OF the right head size. This is
q matter to which many women,
thin as we'll as stout. fail to give
proper attention.
The next problem is one in geo.
metry and mathematics-how to
balance the hat properly on your
head. Unless che solves this prob
lem the stout woman cannct hope
to make her hat, hair and face
work together as they should 10
create an illusion Of height, grace
and slenderness.
There Is given elsewhere on this
page pictorial demonstration Of
this important problem and the
right and wrong ways Of handling
1t. 1t will pay every woman to
study this carefully before she
chooses her next hat
1t may seem absurd to think that
such small things as gloves can add
to or detract from a woman's ap-
pearance. But no detail of her
dress i5 too small to be neglected
by the stout woman, and the gloves
play more important part In the

The stout woman, as every won.
an. will be tempted to clothe her
feet in some of the gay boots which
are being shown In such bewilder-
ing variety. But If she would look
less stout she must firmly resist
this temptation. The strong con-
trasts . beween boots and gown
which often add to the attractive
ness Of more slender woman are
not for her.
The laws of optics teach that low
shoes invariably make q woman
locke taller. The stout woman
would do we'll to bear this in mind
particularly If she insists on wear
ing the fashionably short skirts.
Gray and white are about the only
: variations from the staid black
which she can safely attempt in

She should try to accentuate their
smailness and this cannot be done
unless she wears the proper gloves.
Gloves with broad stitching and
those made Of heavy materials like
chamois should be avoided because
they make the hands look large.
White gloves Of glace kid or silk
for dress occasions and tan kid or
silk for ordinary wear-those are
what science recommends for stout
women.
And now as to shoes, which cur.
rent styles are making assume

shoes. A one-toned shoe is more
suitable for her than a two.toned
shoe and the buckles should be
small and modest in coloring and
design. Above all else let her be
sure that her feet are clothed in
perfect harmony with the rest of
her costume.
Last, but not least, wells. The
stout woman should avoid gaudy
colors and glazing, pronounced pat
terms, particularly if she lacks a
complexion of the fresh blooming
type.
A flowing veil is never becoming
to stout woman. Her veil should
always be drawn tight around her
head and perfectly plain mesh is
usually the most becoming.
AS substitute for black, which
is rather trying. the stout woman
may wear a navy blue veil with a
gown Of the same color. IL her
eyes are blue gray veil or If
brown brown veil, will do very
nicely.

reason many stout women perverse-
ly cling.
The turban has its uses. For eld-
erly women 1t Is excellent, but it
should not be the perfectly oval tur-
ban. One whose symmetry is
broken either by the method of
trimming or by some irregularity
in the lines of the frame itself is
much to be preferred.
No matter how fashionable they
may be or how we'll they may look
on other women, the dropping.

Such style can be worn only when

then 1t is quite liable to prove

NEVER AGAIN!

President Wilson's letter to the President of the National Association of Manufacturers gives some comfort o those who have feared that the result Of the present negotiations between the railroads and their employees might weaken the saving principle Of arbitration and thus deprive the industrial world of a most valuable support of peace and progress.
 The President declares strongly in favor of arbi- tration His words leave doubt that he believes that steps must be taken by which the future disput- ants in controversy like the present will not have in their power Go reject SO cavaliery the applicant Of this sound and saving principle. He says plainly that the situation must never be allowed to arise sgain"-that means must be found to prevent it's re currence
 Unfortunately the situation has arisen. Mir. Will son holds that t is hopeless to try to impose arbi tration as Co all the matters in dispute the em poyees; that the existing have been tried and have failed that the question therefore resolves itself into what practical means can be found or aver,ing the disaster of Q strike.
 As every one who looks beneath the surface ef conditions knows the questions raised at Washington in the present controversy go deeper than the mere matter of an adjustment between the railroads and the employees. In so far they relate to arbitra ton. they touch the very foundations of our entire industrial system and the very of the ques tion of industrial peace For arbitration to be dis credited would in the opinion or all fair thinkers be genuine national misfortune and would soon be rec ognzed as such
 For this reason the Presidents statement is timely It recognizes the present situation extra ordinary and holds that it iustfes extraordinary procedure and one admittedly at variance with the principle which must in future prevail-which must be made to prevail by the positive sanctions of law

HE INTRODUCED BILLS ALL RIGHT

The Valdez Prospector accuses Delegate Wicker sham Of not having even introduced bill for school bond election at Juneau but t is mistaken Delegate wckersham has introduced bills covering almost every emergency in the North. but he let t go at that He introduces bils gets copies of them at a nominal price which he franks all over the Territory to serve as campaign documents but he does not make any serious attempt to secure their passage He is unacQuainted with more than small fraction of the United States Senators and Representatives He does no, go out among the members of the Senate and Congress and ask them to aid him in getting bill over Not long ago a prominent United States Senator asked an Alaskan o point out Delegate Wick ersham to him. He said we have been here for two wears. and have been aborng for Alaska bills dur ing all Of that time. and never saw your Delegate.
 10 is true that the Delegate occasionally writes a letter 10 a committee chairman Cabinet officer or a Bureau head and gets reply. But that is done to ge, campaign documents. These letters and their replies are promptly reproduced and sent out over Alaska It is simply a Of "pfne in Washington and peddle in Alaska" There has been no serious attemp, to get acquainted with the men who can help and then to organize them into working force 10 secure Alaska legislation If that sort of work is done t has Co be done by others at private e& pense.
