SEEN ON THE SIDE

ny HENRY EDWARD WARNER


A cute little miss with a tawny crown
Tha. curls into ringlets and tumbles down
On the dear Nttlo shoulders. so passing fair
Dimplcd and soft and dcliciously bare,
She sits on the floor like little elf
Bravely learning dress herself
She has seen Mother do it. the dear l,tt,. pi-,
With the dear little shoulders and rayishinr
curl,
And now she declares she is growing old
And she won't be dressed and she won't be told
How to manage the buttons and :. rings and she
Is as independent as she can b..
So she pulls and she tugs at the buttons and
strings
And bravely she tolls with the stubborn thing.
That with shoulders and dinples ami tawny
curl
90 TO make up the sum OF a wonderful rirl.
And she purses her lips In thoughtful way
"hen the things that she fixed don't seem to
stay.
But O! she's wonder to persevere
And never a whimper. and never tear
Shall mar tho sweet face OF the little ELF
VINO is learning so sweetly to dress horso,r
AM the heart of tho family's all I'm wbir,
as thero ever so pretty a dear little girl?

ADVISED TO HURRY In
REGISTERING TRADE MARK
American Merchants and Manu-
facturers Doing Business in Bra
iii Warned by Commercial Body.

RIO DE JANEIRO, November 25
Correspondence Of the Associated
Press American merchants and man.
ufacturers doing business in Brazil are
advised by the American chamber of
commerce for Brazil to lose no time
in having their trade marks registered
in this country. For several months the
American chamber has been working
to secure changes in Brazilian trade
mark laws. which are declared to b,
burdensome and unsatisfactory to for
eign commercial interests.
Recent wholesale appropriation of
American trade marks, through local
registration by unauthorized persons.
has given impetus 10 tn- movement. A
series of recommendations drafted by
the American chamber seeking to RENEE
dy the present situation have been ap-
proved by the powerful semi-official
Janeiro and are now before congress
Tor acton.
Explaining the situation, official
of the American chamber said to the
Associated mess correspondent:
AS the law now stands. foreign
trade marks, in order to secure protec-
ton for exclusive use in Brazil must
be recorded. deposited and published not
only in the federal capital, but also in
each of the twenty-one states Court
decisions indicate that ownership is
based on registration, and six months
after registration ownership becomes in
contestable. In cases of unauthorized
registration, the legitimate owner of a
trade mark is virtually expelled from the
Brazilian market. because any article
bearing his mark is subject upon ar
rival to confiscation by the person hold
ing the registration. Recovery OF the
trade mark by the legitimate owner
may be regained only upon such terms
as the holder dictates. Scores of we'll
known American trade marks have been
registered here during the last few
weeks, many of them undoubtedly with
out the knowledge or authorization of
the owners
The principal changes urged in the
present laws are that Rio de Janeiro
be made the central bureau for regis
trations for all Brazil, and that the time
in which suit may be brought against
unauthorized holders of trade marks be
extended from six months to two years.

SMUGGLING INCREASING
IN SECTIONS OF GERMANY
One Alsatian Woman Claims to
Have Made 10000 Marks Put
ting Through Knife Deal

MAYENCE. Germany. November 90
Correspondence of the Associated Press).
Smuggling is on the increase be-
tween unoccupied Germany and the
occupied zones. according to recent
information received by the intelli-
eence officers of the French army of
occupation. French army officers say
that women have been particularly
active of late and that there are near
~ as many woman smugglers as men
An Alsatian woman smuggler claims
to have made 10000 marks on one
deal.
The woman, when discovered, said
she had gone from Strasburg, to So
lingen. in unoccupied Germany where
she purchased 100 dozen knives at six
marks each. She managed to get the
knives over the Alsatian border with
out pay ing duty and afterward sold
the knives to n French dealer for 20
francs each. Returning to Germany
the woman said she exchanged the
French money for marks, at $50
marks for 100 francs, the rate of ex-
change at that time.

Two Dresses in One

For the girl who has only one white
voile dress ready for her summer vaca-
tion and is invited to go earlier than she
expected, this detachable collar should
be salvation. 1t is n wide kerchief
affair, edged with tiny ruffie, which
extends to the waist line and spreads
out toward the arm holes, leaving a
vest effect of the dress in front. Then
instead of stopping at the waist line as
most collars do, it continues down the
side of the skirt. and forms an apron
just over the knees, the apron and side
panels being in one piece, The seams
can be made at the waist line, if neces-
sary, where they will be covered by the
sash. With this disguise the dress will
look like an entirely different affair, and
II is very easy to make.
