Among the several candidates that
are before the people for the posi-
ton Of supreme Judge there is one
gentleman who should receive the
united support of the people of the
state, and especially the voters Of
eastern Washington. That candidate
is Judge Wallace Mount, who has
served upon the supreme bench for
a number of years, demonstrating his
fitness for that exalted position.
Years ago Judge Mount filled the Of
fee of superior Judge for several
counties in eastern Washington, and
| is we'll and favorably known to the
older residents Of this county. In his
judicial capacity he was always fair,
just and merciful, winning the friend
ship Of all having business before his
court. An able lawyer and a learned
jurist Judge Mount won the respect
of the members of the profession of
which he is a shining light. and the
confidence of the people. Eventually
he was chosen supreme Judge, and
in that higher court he has proved
himself thoroughly equipped for the
responsibilities Of that Office. During
his long service he has been a credit
to the state, and he should be retained
in the position as a reward for his
| admirable record.

NOTICE TO SUBSCRIBERS

1t is not often that the Gazette
addresses subscribers directly through
its columns, urging the immediate
settlement of subscription accounts,
but an eXigency growing out of the
war has arisen and it is necessary to
make a direct appeal to the readers
of this paper.
The war is hitting everything and
everybody. and the country press Is
not escaping. When the cost of pro-
duction increases in any branch OF
endeavor as a matter of self-preserva-
ton those who are thus hit must in
crease prices to the public. In no line
has cost of material made a more
pronounced increase than in the print
ing trades, but the country printer,
as a rule, is making no advance in
the price of his wares, or at least
only slight advance. Besides the
increase in price there has become
very serious shortage Of news print
paper in the country, owing to the
curtailment of production. Owing to
this condition the Federal War In
dustries Board has just promulgated
a drastic ruling compelling all papers
to reduce their output at least Is per
cent, and insisting. in order that this
reduction be made possible, that ALL
SUBSCRIPTIONS THREE MONTHS
IN ARREARAGE BE DISCON-
TINUED.
This will work hardship on the
country press, as 1t Is customary tC
carry subscribers until such time as
| it Is to their convenience to pay up
and it is not often that an honest man
abuses that concession, at least sc
we have found in an experience dat.
ing back over fifty years. However
| this is an order, and in these days
when patriotism should be held above
all self-interest, or business advant.
age, that order must be obeyed.
The Gazette has been patient with
it's large list of subscribers, and has
never insisted upon prompt settlement
at the date of expiration of subscrip'
tionos, but under this ruling We have
no choice in the premises and fee
forced to urge all subscribers know
ing themselves to be behind In pay
ments to make immediate settlement
so that it will not be necessary tt
summarily discontinue the paper.
| Publishers, as we understand the
order, are at liberty to carry sub
scribers over the three months where
the subscriber makes the reques
with a promise Of settlement at thu
earliest possible date. We trust tina
such subscribers as are not in a posi-
ton to pay up at this time will Sc
state and the paper will be continued
for a reasonable period.

mands that the country paper cuts off

Solicitors for membership to the

some of those who have willingly paid
money to join a party tinctured with

that there are men in this county
who complain of times being so hard

BRUSH FOR BUSY KNITTERs
New Continuance for the Bag Is Used
to Remove Scraps Of Worsted
From the Skirt.

For the knitting bag there is di-
minutive clothes brush for removing
scraps Of worsted from milady's skirt.
1t is not always convenient to wear an
apron when knitting, and tiny shreds
Of worsted are apt to cling to tailored
suit; the little brush, whisked over
ones lap, will remove them instantly.
The brush has a short black handle,
decorated with bright colored flowers.
Very useful for the knltter are the
small tape measures which wind back
on a spool the moment the end is re-
leased. Ordinary tape measures are
bulky things for the knitting bag and
are likely to become snarled with the
wool; wooden measuring rules are
even more bulky for a small knitting
bag, but the tiny, self-windlng tape
lines take up no more room than 80
cent piece, and the moment a four
inch purling or q slx-inch space of
plain knitting on a sock foot is meas
ured off back flies the tiny tape into
Its nickel cover.

War has not robbed woman Of her
natural desire to please, but 1t has
taught her that discrimination is a far
better part than display.
AT present no hat stands ghost Of
chance Of success unless 1t Is practi-
cal as well as smart.
The woman with a taste and a tai
ent for dress realizes that a hat, no
matter how beautiful or how expen-
sive it may be, is worth to her only
its measure Of becomingness.

ton "bunnit" of chic, serviceability

bination as will delight the feminine
heart.
II is worth noting that velvet is
the vogue for all the hours of the day
and night, but 1t is developed in so
many ways and allied to such a va
riety of things that it never fails.
1t does not now matter half so much
what hat one wears as how one wears
1t, and the head must fit way up into
the crown and the hat must droop
down well over the eyes If one would
not be hopelessly out Of the prevailing
style.

Relieved the Tension.

A little boy at school saw his teacher
faint and fall. In the confusion 1t was
impossible to keep so many heads cool,
and the little ones flocked round the
PROSTATE lady and her sympathetic col
leagues. But this small boy kept both
his color and his GOODNESS.
Standing on bench and raising his
hand, he exclaimed: "Please, teach
er, can 1 run and fetch father? He
makes collins. The peal of laughter
which greeted this unconscious humor
reused the teacher from her short
trance, and nobody enjoyed the young
ster's saying more than she did when
the circumstances were explained ia
her afterward.

SAPPHIRE T0'SUPPLANT RUBY
Precious Stone Has Increased In Price
on Account of War and limitations
Are Almost Impossible.

According to advices from London
jewellers, the sapphire is to supersede
the ruby as fashionable Jewel. For a
long time the ruby has held first place,
having succeeded the sapphire in IA
vor, which was deposed by the fashion
able world, despite its magnifcence Of
color, as 1t had become cheaper In
price. 1t appears now that the ruby,
while bringing high prices, is never
theless the simplest Of all stones and
can readily be initiated. In fact, 1t
is difficult to detect limitations.
Consequently the sapphire will now
be preferred, 1t having greatly In
creased in price during the war and
1t being almost impossible to manu-.
facture limitations.
Diamonds and pearls will, Of course,
continue to be worn as usual and are
always in fashion. Diamonds are now
at the highest price In history, and
may continue to increase in price.

FRINGE ON Wells
Seasons Vogue Provides for the
Popular Trimming.
arrangement Of Border Sometimes
Covers Mouth and Chin Of Wearer
Some Popular coIors.

The present seasons vogue for
fringe has extended even to wells.
Some of these wells are sllp-oyer af-
fairs. That is, the yelling is sewed
together and an elastic band arranged
at one edge, so that it may be held
to the hat. Others are finished at the
lower edge and two ends with the
fringe, and an elastic band may be
used to secure the veil to the hat. or
1t may be merely draped and pinned.
Fall and winter millinery fashions
would, at a mere glance, seem to dis
courage the wearing of wells. Hats
are frequently so oddly shaped and
trimmed that draping a veil over one
of them would seem to be rather a
difficult task. Wells, however, are of
generous proportions, and they are
so uniformly becoming that women
simply will not abandon them, re-
CARELESS Of hat shape or size.
The harem veil is one of the nov
elites of the season, one-half of it
being filmy net or chiffon, while the
other half is comparatively heavy,
and when draped over the face the
lower half of the face is barely visl-
Bile.
Shetland veilings, always service
able, are shown this season heavily
embroidered In wool. Sometimes the
wool embroidery is arranged as
border, covering mouth and chin Of
the wearer, and again one or two
striking flowers are embroidered in
wool on the open Shetland mesh.
Navy, taupe, brown and purple are
popular veil shades for fall and win
ter wear.
The new hats for fall feature feath-
ers, either fancy feathers Of one kind
or another, or ostrich as first favor
ties In the lineup of trimmings, with
bows or self-fabric arranged wind
mill or airplane fashion; second, and
from present indications one Of the
most popular millinery colors Of the
fall and winter season is to be a
brownish red, or reddish brown,
christened "henna." The windows Of
the smart shops are filled with hats
featuring this shade, and 1t also APP
pears frequently as trimming touch
on smart frocks.

HINTS OF THE FASHIONS

Blouses of georgette and silk jer-
sey are trimmed with embroidery, and
many Of these models have choker
collars and elbow-length sleeves.
An exquisite hat recently seen had
a crown Of seal fur and a brim Of
metal brocade ribbon.
AS winter advances the vogue Of
stocks and jabots increases, and many
very smart tailored stocks and daintily
frilly jabots are ready in the shops for
the assured demand.
Accordion-plaited chiffon velvet com
bined> with plain velvet is used for
smart round turbans that are abso-
lutely devoid of trimming.
The ever popular, never out Of fash
ion blue serge dress is with us again
this season. One particularly pleas
ing model is trimmed with embroidery
done in green, tan and blue a trife
lighter than the navy of the dress,
combined with black buttons and black
soutaehe banding.
