SPECIAL LETTER FROM NEW ;
YORK TO THE SAUK GEN. /
TIRE HERALD 3
New York, Jan. 80, 1917.

New York, Jan. 80, 1917.
Although New York is still in the
grip of winter, thoughts of lighter
clothes to be worn under sunny skies
begin to be forced on our attention
Immediately after the holiday season
the shops begin to show a tempting
array Of thin dresses and light suits,
for it is now that the exodus to warm
er chimes begins to take place. Those
of us who either from choice or neces-
sity must see the winter through in
the cold regions, may still contem-
plate the styles that are offered for
Southern wear, for they are a prett'
accurate forecast of what vii be
worn when shping comes.
The delicate lingerie dress this sea-
son is of Georgette, chiffon cloth or
net-these for the more formal dress
es, while for other purposes there are
dainty, fine voiles, with new printed.
woven or embroidered designs in the
most attractive colorings imaginable.
Net dresses are finely embroidered
and trimmed with lace, while those of
chiffon and Georgette are adorned
with the ubiquitous embroidery in
cross stitch, beads or darning stitch.
The New Colors
Green is one of the fashionable
colors for the coming season. 1t has
already been launched by Paris with
great success; furthermore, it is the
true color of spring and for that rea-
son most appropriate for this season
of the year. There is a delicate canary
yellow used both for afternoon and
evening gowns which is quite new and
promises to very much favored. Vel
low in any shade seems to meet with
approval. The deep mustard and cit
ron shades are considered especially
smart for sport clothes.
We have not been able to get awev
from dark blue, for, in spite of many
people being tired of it, Fashion con-
siders it correct for the tailored suit
and dress, and it is much too practical
a color to be discarded.
BlOuses of Chiffon
The sketch illustrates a blouse of
chiffon made to be worn outside the
skirt, style which increases in pop
ularity as time goes on. The neck
line, going straight across the front
and back from shoulder to shoulder
is also proving very popular. This
line is not so hard when the material
is softly shirred and an additional
piece of plain chiffon is placed over
the shoulder. Shirred pockets at the
edge of the peplum, and the ribbo'
decoration ending in loops below the
belt, which is finished with prim
tailored bow, directly in front, are
special style features worthy of con-
sideration, for they appear in many Of
the new models, VARYING according TT
the nature of the design.
Blouses of satin and silk are ais"
making their way among the very
sheer materials which are now being
used.
The tailored skirt with large pock-
cts placed over the inverted pleats at
the sides is one of newest modes in
separate skirts. The skirt is of oy-
s.er-white tuSsur.

CULTIVATE JUDGMENT.

Without Il Intellect and knowledge
Accomplish Little.
Intelligence, knowledge and Judg-
ment were strolling along one day
when they came to young baby sleep
ing by the roadside.
Here's a chance to do some good"
said Intelligence. '"That youngster ap-
pears to be splendid specimen Of hui
manity. Suppose we serve him during
his lifetime"
"An of us?" asked Judgment.
"Why not?' said knowledge. "By
combining we shall be able to produce
very superior person. second the
motion"
Some moments later when the baby
rubbed his eyes upon a new world he
found himself equipped with Intelli-
gence, knowledge and Judgment
Many years later the three were
again out for stroll.
"By the way" said knowledge as
they came to a spot at the roadside,
do you remember that long ago we
three agreed to serve a certain young
ster?"
Perfectly" said Intelligence. "The
curious thing about it all is that, al
though he is perfectly good human
being and respected by all, he has new
er amounted to much-has never &C
quired that supreme distinction which
he should have received with US three
backing him up"
Judgment was silent. They both
turned to him.
"How do you account for it?' they
asked.
II account for it quite simply" said
Judgment. II agreed temporarily to
go in with you and serve him because
there was majority against me. But
it didn't seem to me fair that he should
have so much, so l after little quietly
withdrew and left him to be served by
only you two."-Life.

Teutons and sIavs.

A Teuton is one of an ancient Ger

and first appeared in history along

The old Maid Of the Mist passed
through the Whirlpool rapids once.
She was built originally to cruise about
in the comparatively quiet waters at
the foot of Niagara falls. Becoming in

with seizure. her owner tried to escape
with her through the rapids and did so.
though she was badly battered and lost
her smokestack. This happened in
1864. and she never tried to ascend the
rapids. The name. given by Sir Walter

KAFFIRS AND HEADGEAR.
How the Natives of South Africa First
Came to Wear Hats.


Came to Wear Hats.
1t was Boer. Andres de Villiers by
name. who introduced head coverings
to the South African natives
Andres was man of ideas, and
when one morning many years ago he
saw in Port Elizabeth consignment
of damaged hats offered for sale for a
mere song he bought them on specula-
ton.
The hats were principally of the
straw and derby variety. Andres
loaded them into his wagon and started
for Kaffirland. where hats were totally
unknown. When he arrived in Tembu-
land he unlOaded the stock, opened the
kegs of liquor. without which no trade
could be done in those days, and start
ed business.
The natives did not take kindly to
the headgear. They wanted blankets
and beads and looking glasses and
grog. They refused to have anything
to do with hats and would not buy
them no matter how low the price.
Then another of the bright ideas for
which he was famous occurred to An
dries. He refused to sell anything I'M
less hat was purchased Also
When Kaffir buys anything he is
going to make use of it. and the unfor-
tunate Kaffirs therefore donned the
headgear and returned to their kralls.
Fashion rules the world. 1t is the
same in Africa as elsewhere. and when
the stay at homes saw their relatives
and friends wearing this strange COW
ering their desire to do the same was
excited, and they paid Andres visit,
and he unlOaded the remainder of his
stock on them at price which brought
him large profit on the original in
veStment.

THE NEW BUILDING CODE.
TO the Editor of the Rip-saw:

TO the Editor of the Rip-saw:
You may be Of invaluable as
sistance to City Attorney John
E. Samuelson if you can find time
to investigate the so-called new
Building Code for the City of Du-
luth. Mr.. Samuelson is a busy
man. He has neglected the Cong
don contract to build a boule-
ward for the CITY of Duluth, and
is now engaged in doing moth
ing to prevent the Congdon heirs
from dividing in the probate
court the million dollars that
ought to 60 into that boulevard.
He may also find time to neglect
the building code on which his
compatriot, Mr.. Adolph Ander-
son, an ex-blacksmith or stone
mason, has worked so hard for
so many months. Why all this
hard labor, with the able assist
ance Of Harry Cheadle of the
Real Estate Trust, falsely called
Duluth Real Estate Exchange(,
and whence the public demand
for revision Of our building
code?
Some four years ago, our
building code. was revised by
public spirited citizens, and not
by real estate suckers, so that
Duluth was supposed to have the
most progressive building code
in the United States-one in
which the health Of the people
was safeguarded and the profits
of real estate pirates cut down
proportionately. Has it become
out Of date so soon? There is
a "nigger in this wood pile," and
it is too bad that the only light
on the matter must come from a
single typewriter copy Of so i'm
portant a matter in the city
clerks office.

Baked BY BOYLAN.

Mayor Mich. Boylan and a ma.
jOrity of the city council of Vir-
ginia did not take at all kindly to
county auditor Ha1den's grand
stand play in proposing a cut in
the Virginia tax levy.
"The county auditor goes out
side his territory when he NEEDLES
in Virginia's business" declared
mayor Boylan. ''Those of us who
are in Virginia know better as to
the conditions than one who is
not here"
The plea for cutting the levy,
made under the cloak of patriot
ism by the calculating auditor of
St. Louis county, "riled" Vir-
ginia's mayor. He resented what
he felt was an attempt to tell full
grown men their privileges and
duties.
The Virginia tax levy is the low
est in years, being about One-half
that of Hibbing. The Virginia au-
thorities feel that they have been
thoughtfully and properly econom-
ical in making the levy for 1918.
Thus, once again, the attempt
to make political capital, under.
the cloak of Patriotism, has gone
wrong with the cunning old poll
tician up in the marblelined court
house. 1t pours, rather than rains,
up there these gloomy days.

GIVING NEEDED ROADS
IS HIGHLY PATRIOTIC
Joseph Becks Believes Many People Favor Heavy
Road Levy Rather Than Decrease Backed
By Auditor Halden.

there were adequate roads lead
ing to them, Mr.. Becks stated re-
Gently. It is a patriotic move,
therefore, to build the roads
which the people demand, for
they are people who are saving
the waste to win the war.
eff we had reduced the levy as
proposed it would only mean
that the taxes would be SLIP
less per $1,000 valuation, and I
know of many who would be
willing to pay So more per $1,000
rather than 60 without roads,"
Mr.. Becks is not a bird to be
caught with chaff, therefore he
failed to fall for county audi
tors last grand-stand play, under
the cloak of patriotism and eco
nomy.
