BATTLE CREEK, Mich There's

vice by A. J. Dolly, blacksmith, who
according to the pasteboards, is seek.
ing perfect other-than-t hirty-six"
Only 500 cards were printed and the
holders are conceded by popular
opinion to prize them highly.
Dolly prefaces his unique "adver-
tisement" for q new model, 1920
wife, with the scriptural quotation:
1T Is not good for man to live alone,
l will make him helpmate." a.
The remainder of the card space
gives the following requirements for
any applicant for the sharing of
Dolly's life:
+ "A good Christian woman about
thirty-five years of age; Ave feet,
four; who is interested in missions,
moral reform, jail visiting and phys
ical culture.
mo high heels, transparent clothes
or medicine chest wanted. Good proof
of character required"
Dolly completes his appeal with a
description of his own virtues. He
acknowledges a divorced wife and
several children.
AlAthough femininiy here is agog
over Dolly's venture the replies the
blacksmith Lochinvar has had to
date he attributes to "kidders."

Lovely Woman Soon
To Appear in Coat
OF Pretty Varnish

. LONDON.-Women may soon, with
perfect composure and propriety,
dress themselves entirely in varnish,
from the crown Of the hat to the sole
of the shoe. The varnish is opaque,
but it is varnish none the less, and
as clear as glass if rolled into a thin
film.
In its liquid days this dress ma
terial was called dope" and was
used to protect aeroplane wings
from fire and water. Now 1t is be-
ing spun and woven for ladies'
dresses.
The only difference between a finn
of dope, sheet of cellulose and a
skein of silk" is that the first is
laid on with brush, the second
pressed out on plate and the third
forced through tiny hole.
Among hundreds of other things
it can be made into hats, blouses,
skirts, boots and every possible ar
ticle of female affair.
Moreover, the articles SO made re-
fuse to be spoiled by water, and are
SO f1reproof that the wearer, If we'll
masked, could stroll thru bonfire
unframed.
Dyes of all shades are readily abb
sorbed and retained, and the material
is as washable as linen.
One property Of this dope-silk un-
shared by any other fabric is it's inn
munity, from the ravages of salt
water. If a cambria or silk handker-
chief is immersed in sea water for
q few days it disappears, but cell
lulose handkerchief would survive
several months immersion.

tration building is wanted at the
state technical institution, but the
building program as whole was
held down. Each of the two build
ings will cost approximately
$500, 600.
There is every indication that a
recommendation will be submitted
for new group of buildings at the
state insane asylum at Blackfoot to
cost in the neighborhood of $780,
900 and since. the bonded indebted
ness will be reduced to a point early
in the year which will make 1t posi-
BILE for the state to issue new bonds
in that sums it is believed that the
legislature will look with favor upon
the proposed appropriation.
At the capitol where the subject
of new buildings for the insane
asylum is being discussed it is said
that efforts would be made to find a
suitable location upon ground now
owned by the institution for the
group.
So far as known none of the other
state institutions are asking for new
buildings. Bonds would be issued to
cover the cost of the three which will
probably be asked for, making direct
appropriations unnecessary.
Appropriations as a whole will be |
held down in an effort on the part of
the state administration to retrench
and this policy will apply to the de-
partments of the state government
rs well as to institutions.
/. In keeping with this policy the
City of Boise will not attempt to en-
ertain on lavish scale when Gov
,rnor Davis is inaugurated for his
econd term, but on the contrary will

rate as possible. January has II

FIRST ORIENTAL SUBWAY
TO BE BUILT IN TOXIC

TOXIC, Dec. 17.-Plans for thirty
miles of subway lines to be built in
the capital city of Japan are now
under consideration here. Ever since
the plan for the underground lines
as a means of relieving the badly
congested traffic of Toxic was sug-
gested in 1918 there has been skep-
ticism because of the fact that Toxic
is built on ground that was once part
of the sea, or made ground" The
new engineering company, agents
for the Toxic Underground Rail-
ways Co., Ltd, claims to have made
tests and announces that there is no
doubt of the ability of the land to
stand the construction of the sub
way.
The company received its charter
in 1918 from the Government. 1t has
recently voted to increase its capital
stock from Y10,000,000 $4,000
000) to YSO,000,O00 ($40,00O,-
000). @
If the plans as submitted are car
ried out Toxic will have the first un-
derground railway line ever built in
the Orient. While the company's
plans are still in the formative stage,
it has gone as far as to establish
headquarters in the Kaijo Building,
and arrange for calling into consul
tation prominent engineering men
from France and America.

BLIND MEN BATTLE

ATLANTA, Ga.-Love is blind.
Martin Strone is binder. Mrs.

art. Patitudinous and commonplace
enough until you hear that Judge
Johnson was forced to hear that.
Strone had made violent physical as
sault at-not on-Stewart because
ne, Strone, had heard Stewart was
paying fervent court to Mrs, Strone.
In fact, Strone found Stewart at the
Strone's Thurman street home and
there's where the racket occurred.
IT was something like this:
Strone was out in the city pur>
suing his daily toll of selling pamph-
lets, when some friend OF the sight
less family informed him that Stew
art was devotedly visiting the stone
plind Mrs. Strone. Strone fastened
nome and 1t was there he discovered
through addition the presence Of
stewart. Of course, Strone couldn't
see This at all, at all, and conse-
auentiy threw himself, fists flying in
the general direction Of Stewart. who
lodged In a more or less general sort
OF fashion, not being able to see
Strone's plunges and not knowing ex-
actly how the furniture was situated
for fistic combat.
This combined set Of blind efforts
one destructive and the other pro-
tective-continued until most Of the
furniture had been wrecked.
Upon the declaration of hostilities
Mrs. Strone had CROPPED her wav ont
OF the house and had called the
neighbors who, in turn, called the
police. The police drove up to The
sightless abode to see the mass If
wreckage and the two blind men stilI

Mount Robson. Mr.. Alderman, who
has hunted big game in many parts
of the world, declared the region was
the best big game country in North
America: He reported seeing 300
mountain. goats and 1875 big horns.
The abundance of game is due to the
overflow from the protected area Of,
Jasper Park.
Mr.. Alderman had narrow escape
from death in an encounter with
she grizzly and two yearling cubs.
He had levelled his rifle at one of
the cubs when the mother bear rush
ed upon him from the brush ten feet
distant. A quick shot bowled her
over dead with one of her paws six
inches from the doctors feet.
DR.. Hardy with a guide came upon

being killed.

NEW YORK, November 20 (by the
Associated Press).-Discrimina in
awarding contracts for Shipping Board
Hildreth. an official of packing sup
ply company. testifying today before
the Walsh congressional committee
investigating Shipping Board affairs
Mr.. Hildreth alleged that his firm
was unable 10 obtain contracts from
the Shipping Board because it was not
on an approved list"
The witness declared he had never
been able to find out why his firm was
not on the list, but admitted, in reply
to a question by Chairman Walsh.
that he had never taken the matter
up with the chairman of the Shipping
Board.
William E. Cash, formerly a travel
ing auditor for the board. testified to
alleged minor Irregularities in Ship
ping Board accounts.
Cash corroborated statements by
former witnesses that the system of
checking supplies in the New York.
Philadelphia and Boston districts
made it possible for shipbuilding ma
terial owned by the government to be
instances when materials were
checked out of government ware
houses and takepd to government
ships. but with no check to show that
the material was actually used there
Cash said he could not positively say
that government materials were
wrongly appropriated, but declared
this was possible" He also testified
to the truth of a report that eighteen
cars of lumber were found outside q

HARDING DUE HERE
EARLY IN DECEMBER

President-elect Harding is sched-
uled to arrive in Washington Decem-
Der 6 on his return from Panama and
after delivering an address in Bed
ford, Va. From sources in touch with
him it is learned that his tentative
plans contemplate remaining here un-
til the Sth or 9Th. although these
plans may be changed.
In fact. it is thought probable he
may not remain so long, after con-
sultation with some of his friends,
journ longer than necessary to &C
complish the purpose of his visit.
This is understood tic be his desire to
attend to some household affairs for
the period ensuing before. taking up
his abode in the White House. He
also will arrange a pair in the Sem
ate on important questions until Sem
ator-elect Frank B. Willis is appoint
ed in January to fill the vacancy &C.
casioned by Senator Harding's resig-
nation at that time.
Omceseeker Raid Feared.
Some of the President-elect's friends
here apprehend that if he stays in
Washington several days he will be
overrun with oficeseekers and be-
cabinet selections. Others. however,
think it would be good idea for him
to hold some of his conferences with
the leading minds of the country on
the league Of nations proposition
while he is here.
1t is recalled that one President
elect came to Washington for weeks
visit prior to inauguration with, en-
barrassing results. President-elect
Taft spent a week in the capital, as the
guest of the Boardmans. while Presi-
dent Roosevelt was still in the White
House. He was the center of attrac-
ton. and was visited by public men.
while the White House was deserted
by them The gossips said that the in
cident created considerable irritation
at the time.
OF course, no such condition could
arise at this time nor ground be af-
forded for offense. Moreover, it is
pointed out that Mr.. Harding still is
a senator and would be occupying his
own home by right of domicile and
proprietorship.
Might Call ON President.'
The question has arisen whether,
in event of stay of several days. he
would pay his respects to President
Wilson Mr.. Harding's friends say he
doubtless would not offer to do so
would be acceptable to the President.
While the President-elect is in
Washington the selection of a chair
man Of the inaugural commit will
| be taken up, as his personal prefer
ences will be consulted by Chairman
Hays of the national committee, who
is to announce the appointment.

THEIR HUMAN SIDE
BY WILL r. KENNEDY.

Members Of Congress returning to
the Capitol gaze off toward the White
House and stand agape: then they
get together in little groups and
make sarcastic remarks. What dis
turbs them Is the fact that the new
statue of Gen. Grant, which is the
second largest statue in the world and
has been about eighteen years in the
making, has been so placed at the
foot of Capitol Hill as to give the
appearance of Grant being in retreat
from the Capitol -
Some Of the members have consulted
Elliott Woods. superintendent OF the
Capitol building and grounds. and
usually we'll informed upon such sub
jects. regarding the reason for turn
ing the equestrian statue away from
the Capitol and looking off toward
the White House and the Virginia
hills in the distance. They point out
that the Capitol is the center of the
federal city: that from 1t the cardinal
points of the compass verge-north.
south. east and west: that from it the
avenues radiate and the streets take
their numbers.
The first person not in the present
Congress but elected to the Sixty
seventh Congress to come here look
ing the ground over is former Repre-
sentative John NJ. Nelson of Wiscon-
sin.
There is some talk among members
OF Congress that friends of Repre-
Sentative-elect Theodore E. Burton Of
Ohio. formerly a member of the House
and later a senator. to whom Harding
was a successor. are anxious to make
him Speaker. Burton was said to be
President Taft's choice for Speaker
fifteen years ago, when Uncle Joe"
Cannon was elected to that Office.
Burton is recalled as 1.-THE best chair
man that the rivers and harbors COM
mittee ever had"-but it is also re-
called that he carried all the load
himself" and there were many pro-
tests because the other members of
the committee didn't have very much
to say about this famous pork barrel
bill"
Burton, by the way. was the cause
for clear distinction Of the fact that
state legislatures. municipalities and
even chief executives may petition
