Roland's Idea of a
Perfect Woman
By DOUGLAS

&c by Mcclure Newspaper syndicate.)
Elsie "a more or less accustomed
to her brother Roland's impulsive ac-
tions, but his latest idea rather took
her breath away.
ISIS" he had said in his CHEEKY
voice that morning at breakfast, II
have ordered the most exquisite set of
gowns, evening, day and anything else
in the way of time dress that you ver
looked at. Also hats, shoes, slippers,
stockings. In fact, | have bought al
most anything hat a lovely woman
could possibly want. Now" as he saw
his sister arriving at a state bordering
on apopiexy from curiosity, he contin-
ued, "the idea is for you to find a girl
who will fit them. She must be rea-
sonably good looking, but that is not
of great Importance"
Roland, have you quite lost your
mind? Where do / find a girl, and
what girl is going to wear a lot of
clothes purchased by a young bachelor,
and if she did, what are you going to
do with her?"
Roland burst out laughing.
my idea is not SO absurd as 1t
sounds" he informed her. 1.-THE fact
is, / am a bit fed up with all the arti-
fetal, stupidity gowned women we
know. / have bought what ! consider
some extremely artistic and distin-
guished clothes, and / want some n
to wear them, and that some one must
chum about with me at dinners, the
alters, dances and all kinds of nice en-
tertainments. Now don't get the idea
that l am looking for a wife. / sim
ply want a natural looking girl whose
face is not entirely made up at the
beauty parlors. I am sick to death

Audrey was slim and dark. Her
brow was broad and milk white and
her black hair rolled back from it into
a classic knot. Her eyes were lark
and heavily dashed and her lips were
scarlet. Otherwise Audrey was color
less in repose. The animated Audrey
was suggestive of an animated Greek
statue come suddenly to life.
Roland was guilty Of a swift intake
of breath when, upon entering the IL
brary that evening, Elsie introduced
her selection to him. The fictitious
name of Miss Granger had beer as
Sumed.
He quickly regained comp0sure and
sent a glance of complete approval to
Elsie.

Granger" he said, and l hope you will

night?"
why not the opera?" suggested FL
sic. I'm sure Miss Granger loves
music"
They whirled off to the opera.
Audrey was very silent, considering
it the most likely way of ensnaring
Roland's real interest. In many subtle
ways, however, she kept him well
aware of her presence. She was re-
warded early in that first evening by
realizing that her escorts attention
did not waver from her.
There was nc denying the fact that
the girl Roland suddenly sprung on
the public was a social find. Her
clothes were always exquisite, her man.
ner digniied and yet Roland had dis
covered that the heart within those
beautiful garments was of equal fine
ness-a combination he had not hith-
erto found.
A scant few weeks of gayety had
passed before Roland entered his Sis
ter's boudoir with a look of defeat.

II have failed to keep from loving this
girl. What do you think about it, sis?
Where did she come from and what
can you tell me about her? She has
been so reticent that / am fearful she
has a husband tucked away or"
"Rolly, DEAR" said Elsie soothingly.
why have you not told her you love
her? She might give you all these
herself.

of it," he flung back as he dashed
off to find the girl who had so sue
cessfully worn clothes.
And Elsie smiled. She already knew
where Audrey's heart was, and it was
just exactly where every M wanted
1t to be.

and hair that looks like a waxed head.
1t is only a kind of lark, sis, but ]
want to experiment. You come in con-
tact with so many girls down in the
settlement who never get a chance to
wear wonderful gowns-now-' he
paused a moment, "can you find me
one?'
II would like breathing space"
laughed Elsie, 1.-THE idea is not so bad
when one has details. l think no one

however"

and treated Elsie to one of his not

Elsie, now all excitement to see the
fortunate girl who was to year all
the lovely clothes. She was responding
readily to Roland's idea of a unique
adventure. She was doubtful as to
what her husband would think Of it.
but Elsie had a way of putting things
in Just the right way and at just the
right moment.
The gowns, furs, evening cloaks and
hats which arrived in relays were so
exquisite as to make even the beauti-
fully gowned Elsie gasp in admiration.
The garments were one and all dis
tinguished as to color, cut and In
dividuality.
ut will take a girl of more than q
little poise to wear these with ele-
gance," thought Elsie, "she will almost
have to be extremely well born and

HORSEMEN'S SIDE
HORSE VS.. TRACTOR
DEMONSTRATION A STACKED
DECK SAYS ASSN.-NAME
NOT AUTHORIZED

The article below, received from
the Horse Association of America, is
published in the spirit of fairness to
both sides. In another place in this
issue will be found publicity matter
concerning the tractor demonstration
to be held at Fargo. This paper be-
lieves that there is a place on some
farms for the tractor, especially the
small one. Time has demonstrated
that there is a place on every medium
sized farm for the horse. The main
point is that this country is a big
producer of horses which gives
weight to the main point made in
the Horse association article which
follows:
Chicago, ILL.,, June 10 (Special)-
The announcement by the National
Show and Demonstration Committee
of Tractor and Thresher Department
of the National Implement Vehicle
Association, of contests between
horses and tractors in field opera
tons, and that the first of these dem
onstrations will be held at Fargo, N.
D. June %, 29 and 80, has had wide
publicity. Much misleading comment
has appeared thereon.
The use of the name of the Horse
Association of America in the article
in question is unauthorized. Plans
for this demonstration were laid at
a meeting of tractor and implement
men in Chicago. No horsemen were
present. The move is purely one by
the tractor interests calculated to TO-
Gus attention upon their national
demonstrations. No horsemen have
been consulted with respect to the
demonstration or rules.
The situation is this. Tractor sales
have fallen away to practically moth
ing, due to awakening consciousness
on the part of farmers that horses
and mules furnish the most reliable,
efficient and economic power on the
farm, when farm profits over a per-

iod of years are taken as the test.
In a desperate effort to do something
to stimulate tractor sales, a group OF
men having charge of this particular
problem, have hit upon this plan in
the hope that such a demonstration
would show that more can be done
within a few hours with tractors than
with horses, and thus create publici-
ty and sentiment favorable to trac-
tor sales.
The Real Test
To clear away any possible misun-
derstanding on this question, there
fore, it is hereby definitely stated
that the Horse Association of Ameri-
ca has not entered into any such con-
tests, and does not intend to enter
any contests sponsored and controll-
ed by the tractor interests. The mere
fact that more might be done in a
limited time under special conditions
with professional operators on the
job, proves nothing of the practical
bility and economy of using tractors
in ordinary farm work, as thousands
of farmers can now testify by actual
experience. The real test is,-which
will be more profitable to the farmer
in ten years time. In this, crop
grain prices, total farm in
come, and income from sales of sur
plus horses, must all be taken into
account as drawn from actual cost
accounts. The folly of setting up a
short, three-day, spectacular demon
stration in seed bed preparation as
the solution of the power problem
for the whole farm calendar, is OBJ
vious on its face to the thinking men
agriculture.
A Comparison
Two tractors and equipment come
INTO your Observation-Disclosures to
i've thousand dollars cash goes out.
Another community, nearby, has
horses for farm work and
each season sells a carload of sur
plus work animals,-from three to
i've thousand dollars come in. Which
community will be the most pros
oerous in the long run? Which one
will be the best for the merchant, the
business man?
Go ask your banker,-he knows.

,ar is that it's usually fire proof.

Remedy

Every family should keep this pre-

uniform success that has attended
the use of this remedy and the
prompt cures which it has effected
have made it a staple article of trade.
