BEAUTIFUL GOWNS
OF MADAM KALICH
Three Creations for Three Acts
Specially Designed by Lady
Duff f-GordOn for Noted
Actress.

When Madam kalich is seen here IN
The Riddle Woman some very beauti-
/ full and sumptous gowns will bc seen.
! The three gowns IN which she appears in
/ the three acts Of the play were specially
/ designed bv Lady Duff Gordon They
/ are luxurious tea gown. an un0btrllsive
afternoon frock and a regal dinner costume
The gowns are the result of an impress
sion made upon her by her first glimpse Of
the original Whistler famed portrait of
/ his mother,
Paradoxical though It may sound
/ II was from the painting of that austerc
old lady IN the old fashioned long black
gown, that ] received my inspiration for
the gowning Of the difficult and highly
cOIorcd character of Lila Dirk declared
Madam Kalich OF all modern painters,
| Whistler has always seemed to me the
most suggestive, the most pregnant with
meaning And he IL particularly SO in his
portrait of his mother. Here, rs anyone
. who has seen the picture viii remember,
the one high hight consists OF the single
device of q snowy and immaculate wisp
OF linen In that tiny handkerchief,
the most unimaginatlve man or woman
NAV read a thousand wears Of rectItudc
Of stern chastity thousand years Of
fine womanly ideals passed on, like an un-
uucnchable torch, from the countless
generations of noble wifchood and mother
hood That snowy handkerchief ef-that
and the pair OF wrlnkled, time worn hands
at rest 81 peacefully in the lap-are indexes
Of the fine old gentlewoman lined and
withered face.
Now. what Whistler has done in this
and certain other of his portraits, we can

parcl we can and do suggest moods.
predicate all sorts OF moral and spiritual
qualities Certainly on the stage suc-
gesting gowns are. or should be imperative,
If for no other reason than that one of the
first essentials Of good stage art is that the
audience shall be made en- rapport with the
characters Of the drama in the quickest
possible manner and with the least formal
explanation.
When an actress assumes IN play such
a part 81 Lila Dirk, it is necessary 10
utilize every agency-the voice, the eyes,
the ears, gesture, facial masque and vesture
And Of these the greatest of all is vesture--
greatest and most potent because clothes
of any kind are in themselves always and
ever the simplest and most fundamental
index to the social and moral order of
the men and women for whom they were
originally fashioned.
Lila Olrik's garments, her luxurious
gowns, her dainty footwear, her sumptuous
furs, her jewels, her thousand and one
dainty gewgaws-all these reveal Lila
Olrik's heart and soul and mud to the
audience as nothing else COZ III do IN

Wool Growers Find
Refuge From Trust
in Reserve Banks

Helena, June Ex-senator G. H. Will
liams of Deer Lodge, acting governor,
and who is one of the largest wool
growers in the state, said today that
not pound of wool had been purchased
in the entire west since early in March.
At that time 100000 pounds were con-
tracted for in Utah at II cents a pound
Governor Williams said there was con-
certed effort to force the growers to sell
the big wool buyers of the east their
clips at price far below what the prod
uct was worth.
According to the governor, when the
wool growers recently met at Chicago,
arrangements were made with the fed
eral reserve banks whereby the wool pro-
ducers of the west may ship their clips
to eastern warehouses and the banks
will advance an amount Of money to be
agreed upon by the grower and the
bank in order that the grower may pay
off his loan at home if he is forced to
and not be compelled to sacrifice his
product to the trust.
Referring to the aid of the federal
reserve banks, Governor Williams said:
IF it were not for the reserve banks
we would be up against it now

day effort Thursday put forth by 20
young ladies, and the directors of that
effort, Miss Mary Kingsbury and Mrs.
Charlotte Lange, brought fund OF
$23610.
With each tag sold the buyer gained
an oppodtunity to calculate the number
of grains of wheat and rice that GER
tain bottle would hold and this added
much interest to the work -Four were
nearer than 200 to the correct figure
which was found by counting to be
IL ,2OS. The kernels were counted
Wednesday night by w. W. Hampstead,
Harry L. Call and Leonard G. Diehl.
The jar containing the kernels had been
sealed when the material was placed
inside and no one knew until the count
the exact number.

The one making the best estimate
was Carl Opsahl, who gave his address
