 Today here in Nome you have a noble band of unselfish women and children who are leaving the warmth of their firesides and are bravlng the stornx and cold of the northland.
 For what purpose7
 To help the Red Cross--the noblest of all work--for those who cannot go to the front or who are unable to give aid in other ways.
 What have you got to do to help these self-sacrificing and unselfish women? Why, just give them one dol lar.

This one dollar may be the means of saving some poor mothers unfortunate son who has been dealt the cruel blow which comes with the fortunes of war, or soothe the brow of some brave lad in his dyinghour.

Fashions of To-Day By May Manton

Anyone looking at these two
dresses would notsuspect that they
could be evolved from the same
model but such is the fact never
theless. In the one case, char
meuse satin and serge are COM
bined and the serge is cut to form
straps that extend over the shoul-
ders and conceal the closing of
the dress. In the other case, the
gown is made of a soft satin with
applique of embroidered neS
making the trimming, and the
only real difference in cut is
iound in the fact that the straps
are omitted. Both treatments
are essentially smart and both
are attractive, each, of course,
being available for a different
use. You could make still a
third effect, by making such a
combination as the one shown
on the figure but omitting the
straps. The scarf that is worn
with the gown is one of the new,
straight ones in Empire style
with a pretty muff of fashionable
size. 1t is made of one of the
new fur plushes that are so hand
some.
For the medium size the dress
on the figure will require 3M
yards of satin SO inches wide
with 81 yards of serge 81, the
dress shown in the small view,
AZ yards "A with IA yards A
for the trimming. For the scarf
and muff will be needed, I5%
yards 81 inches wide.
The pattern of the gown No.
c5oo is cut in sizes from 81 to AZ
inches bust measure and of the
scarf and muff in one size. They
will be mailed to any address by
the Fashion Department Cf this
paper, on receipt of fifteer cents
for the dress, 10 cents for the
scarf.

What every soldier most needs is

power and endurance. with nerves of

this result, there is nothing in my

of this valuable product was sent to
the French soldiers by Nine. Sarah

self to, build me up after a serious
case of nervous exhaustion. The eff
fects were apparent after a few days
and within three weeks it had Virtu-
ally revitalized my whole system and
put me in a superb physical condi-
ton.

Time and again have prescribed or
ganic, iron-NuXated Iron-and sur
prised patients at the rapidity with
which the weakness and general de-
bility were replaced by a renewed
feeling of strength and vitality.
General Horatio Gates Gibson says
Nuxated Iron has brought back to
him in good measure that old buoy
ancy and energy that filled his veins
in 1S47 when he made his triumph
ant entry with General Scott into the
City of Mexico and that he attributes
the fact that he is hale and hearty
in his 91st year, after an active mill
tary. life with service in both the
Mexican and Civil Wars, largely to
his recent use of this wonderful
product.
Another remarkable case is that of

miner by his side to tell him the
facts, he found his task an easy one.
SeItridge followed orders and let
him talk with the men freely. All
% them had been drilled till they
knew their story like parrots. They
were suspicious of the approaches of
iIhot. but they had been warned
that they must appear to talk can
didly. The result was that some
talked too much and some not
enough. They let slip admissions
under skillful examination that
could be explained on no other basis
than that of company ownership.

Mile swamp without the help of
someone who knew every foot of the
trail. With Holt to show the way
the swamp became merely q hard
grueling mush through boggy low
lands.
Weary with the trail. they reached
the river at the end of a long day.
An Indian village lay sprawled along
the bank, and through this the two
men tramped TO the roadhouse
where they were to put up for the
night.
Holt called to the younger man,
who was at the time in the lead.
Wait a minute. Elliot
Gordon turned. The old Alaskan

him to pay attention.
"Colmac," the boy answered
bashfully.
His fist closed on the quarter, he
turned. and like a startled caribou

Tore all the business will rest on my

Now, Miss Fairfax, I love this man

myself to just admire him as a pleas
ing friend, but there is something
which tells me he is more than a
friend. My employer told me he is
going to employ him as an assistant
of mine. s he thinks the business will
be too much for me to carry on alone,
but l told him 1 object. as he is five
years my senior, and l would not care
for an older person to assist me. Dear
Miss Fairfax, please tell me whether

ANXIOUS.
Why should you permit yourself to
indulge in such a frenzy of looking
for trouble?" l agree with you that
1t is not good policy for a young wo-
man to accept all sorts of social in
vitations from chance acquaintance
in business, but since you were prop
erly introduced to this young man and
ne mas shown respectful interest in
you the situation changes somewhat.
| can understand that you want to
look up to the man you are interest
ed in-not have him, employed in
your office in an inferior capacity as
your assistant; but positions have to
be awarded according to merit. Since
you are trusted to such an extent that
your employer is ready to sail for
France, leaving his business in your
charge, how can you contemplate re-
fusing to do your bit because of a lot
of sentimental notions about a young
man you hardly know? Stay in your
