, know whether that is why It was
taken in. But II was only kept up q
little while.
Personally, thought It was a very
good idea, and was sorry to see 1t
go. 1 think there ought to be some
other way OF Indicating that the Pres
ident is or is not sin residence" than
by flying or not flying the American
flag. That ought to fly over the
White House every day in the year.
There have been times when Wash
ington has seen the anomaly Of
flags flying over every foreign en-
/ bassy and legation in the city, on
July 4, in honor of our national birth
day, and none over the White House
because the President vas not in
residence, which Is very likely to
happen at that time of year. That
is an absurd situation!

Count TarnowskPs Appointment
Gave Allies a Cold Chill.
The newest addition to the ambas-
sadorial ranks, Don Aldunate Bascu-
man, who comes to represent Chile,
will be introduced to Washington un-
der rather happier auspices than
Count Adam Tarnowski Won Tarnow,
who was the last ambassador to ar
rive. There should be nothing to de-
lay the presentation of his creden-
tials to the President, while Count
Tarnowski is still ambassador-desig.
nate, and the chance OF his being re-
ceived seems as remote as ever.
What an anomalous position In
which to find oneself! I wonder who
his playmates are and what this truly
remarkable diplomat thinks OF having
his diplomatic opportunities curtailed
They do say that there were cold
pchills in the foreign offices of the
allies over his appointment, and that
many OF the foreign papers predicted
the surrender OF the whole admins
tration to the Polish counts irresis-
table spell, SO perhaps it's Just as
well, from our point of view, that
circumstances didn't permit of his be-
ing taken at once to our hearts.

Good Idea Flying Presidents
Flag on the White House.

There was quite a little unfriendly
comment, from people who don't like
the President or don't agree with his
politics, about the "frills" he was put
ting on, and about the head of a
democracy aping royalty. don't

CoIFFuRE TO SUIT FEATURES
individuality in Hairdressing Is Be
 coming More Pronounced-Modi- fled casque New Style.

Individuality in hairdressing grows more pronounced. Some really artistic cultures, enough on present lines not to look odd, are curiously in character with the faces they frame. If gir has one or two slightly eastern fea lures, she seeks to accentuate them Has she large, dark eyes, Spanish comb matches up. No longer is the Marcel wave kept in its pristine se verity. One has the hair waved, tt be sure, then proceeds to comb it out just enough to lose the artificiality.
 There is no headdress newer than the modified casque. rising bit higher on the top of the head as it is drawn toward the back. The tendency to a thin waved forehead fringe and to little tendrils which wave into curls in front of the ears is an addition to the hairtlressing of those who go in for more elaborate cultures. These are so unaccentuated that they are not noticeable at a little distance. They are very fur from the exaggerated curves of hair sometimes seen, and serve to soften the face and also to show bit of hair below the hat crowns, which are pulled so far down over the forehead. ,, ..,s.,.-

Silk Net in Orchid coIors.

Silk net in orchid colors is again in- troduced for evening gowns. It does not appeal to the world as anything original, but women are eagerly accept ing gowns of it when they present a combination of six or seven colors of tulle arranged in panels or superim. posed in layers. New dance gowns, however, are of silk net arranged in voluminous drapery over excessively narrow satin skirts. One of the sue cessful gowns is of white tulle over pale yellow satin, with the barrel eff. feet got through puffs of tulle which support immense, but fragile, pockets of yellow crystal beads which are sup. ported from the shoulders by neck faces of the same beads, giving almost the effect of the, baskets of flowers and fruit carried by the Italians, which are swung from their shoulders with gayly colored ribbons.

PAPAl HAT IS NEW DESIGN
erim Is Cut Into Two High Points in Front and Back-Tendency Shown
 Toward Exposing the Hair.

The papal hat, called the hitter, has been launched in Paris. It fits the head snugly and the brim is cut into two high points of even height, back and front. One is in Vatican purple satin, heavily embroidered in oxidized silver thread; another is in black satin, em- broidered in dull gold threads, with a flat bit of ruby-colored velvet embroid- cred in the front brim.
 All-white hats have been launched for the early spring season. High shapes of white straw, trimmed with irregular groupings of stiff white wings are favorites. White satin hats trimmed with black wings have moder- ately wide brims.
 All hats are worn straight across the eyebrows; the tilt has almost dis appeared. The headband is small and shows the hair at sides and back. The new millinery shows a tendency to- ward exposing the hair, after seasons of covering it.
 Gold and oxidized lace is arranged in butterflies and bows on evening hats The wearing of picture hat with a low gown at a public place in the eve ming has returned to fashion.
 Sport hats are made of colored felt with rough surface, trimmed with a cross-stitch in black worsted thread usually running up the high crown in straight lines.
 Stiff wings are taken up by the mil. liners for high turbans.

LISTEN TO THIS! SAYS CORNS LIFT
 RIGHT OUT NOW

You reckless men and women who are pestered with corns and who have at least once week invited an awful death from lockjaw or blood poison are now told by a Cincinnati authority to use a drug called freezone, which the moment a few drops are applied to any corn, the soreness is relieved and soon the entire corn, root and all, lifts out with the fingers.
 It is a sticky ether compound which dries the moment it is applied and simply shrivels the corn without in- flaming or even irritating the sur rounding tissue or skin. It is claim ed that quarter of an ounce of free zone will cost very little at any drug stores, but is sufficient to rid one's feet of every hard or soft corn or cal Jus.
 You are further warned that cut ting at corn is a suicidal habit Adv.

Archbishop Messner was able TO
drive off the thug who had started
to rifle the office OF the archdiocese.
The thief had entered the archi.

and hid in the wine cellar. While
waiting for night he opened wine. So
when he was going through the house
he woke the archbishop, The man
tussled with the Archbishop, then
fled, leaping through a plate glass

Archbishop Messmer was aroused
from his sleep by a noise in an ad-

economy cry that daily arises
from some part Of the William
cite valley. It is a dull morn
ing that does not bring forth
some new suggestion as to
how to conduct public affairs
without cost. Though none of
our institutions get more
money than they need and
some are shamefully neglect
ed; though the state pays
lower salaries than do private
corporations there is a const-
ant cry to reduce expenses.
For one the East Oregonian
grows weary of so much agi-
tation along this line. Too
much economy is not economy
at all; it is extravaganza, as
was once proven by the man
who taught his horse to eat
nothing but sawduSt.
If the commonwealth OF

THE CIGARETTE AS A FIRE
MENACE

~ WING to the fire danger
VI connected with cigarette
smoking the East Ore
gonian has adopted a rule for
bidding the smoking of cigar
cites in any department of the
paper. The rule is one that is
already in force with many
up-to-date publishing houses
and other corporations where
the fire menace is something
that must be constantly under
surveillance. In the state of
Oregon during the past year
over one per cent of the fires
were caused by cigarette
smoking. In the state of Cali
fornia S.8 per cent of the fires
ere charged to smoking, the
cigarette being the chief of
fender. How great a proper
ton of fires have their origin
in carelessness on the part of
cigarette smokers may be seen
in the fact the Acturial Bureau
of the National Bureau of Fire
Underwriters has a report on
Oregon for 1915 in which
smoking is listed as causing IL
per cent of the fires during
that year whereas incendiar-
ism is charged with only two
per cent of the fires. When
the cigarette-started fire gets
