Hagan Informed Offenders
Will Quit Refusing Grain
For Storage

The practice of elevator companies
in refusing to store grain and Of
fering instead purchase contracts to
farmers will be discontinued, John
N. Hagan, state supervisor of grains,
said today. Information was given
him by one line elevator house that
the practice had been discontinued
and promise was made by the other
offending elevator company that 1t
would be discontinued, when he
made vigorous protest to officials in
Minneapolis, he added.
"Uhder the law storage ticket
must be given when demanded" Mr..
Hagan said. "If the initiated grain
grading act is held constitutional
any elevator corporation or public
warehouse operating in North Dako-
ia that refuses to receive grain for
storage will be closed Immediately.
II the initiated act is declared un-
constitutional power will rest in the
railroad commission again and ! feel
as though the railroad commissi
would Immediately stop the prac-
tice." IS
Two line elevator companies have
sought to substitute contract pur-
chase for storage, these being the
two that promised it would not con-
tinue.

DR.. Hughes, himself of negro blood,

dread that SON or husband will

FLARE SKIRTS
ARE TO BE
LATEST STYLE
Painted Faces, to Look Like
Dolls, Are Also the Decree
of London
LONG SKIRTS GO
Olive Green to be Prcdomi-
nant Color This Winter;
Brown Second Choice

London, Sept. 28.--Smartly dressed
women Of the future must wear
"flare" skirts, modified leg-of-mutton
sleeves, we'll defined waist lines, and
must make up in doll" fashion,, ac-
cording to London fashion experts.
The "doll" makeup consists Of a
dash of red high on each cheekbonc,
and another dash in. the middle Of
the forehead. This gives the fair
wearer the appearance Of Dutch
doll.
Skirts Of the coming season, the
London fashion judges have decreed,
shall be SO made that when the wear
er walks the skirt will fill out like
balloon, but when she stands in
repose her draperies will enf6ld her
as in shcaf. The ultra-long skirts,
so much in vogue. during the last
season, will BE abandoned. The new
circular, "flare" skirts are shorter
than those of last year.
With the return of the flare to the
dress, the waist line, so long ignored
by fashion, reasserts itself, and the
effect produced by skirt draperies
that flare is further accumulated by
the tendency of the upper part Of the
dress, the blouse or corsage, to pouch
slightly over the waist.
The leg-of-mutton sleeve, an old
style in which the upper part is large
and the wrist close fitting has been
brought back by some London dress
makers, and another effort to pop
ularize the high collar is being made.
Olive green will be the FREEDOM
inant color this winter, say the fash
ion mentors, with an autumnal shade
Of brown as second favorite. Some
drcDsmakers incline to soft Persian
reds and vivid hues. Extraordinary
embroideries, landscape, geological,
and carpet, according to choice, will,
however, tighten up the browns and
othel more or less neutral colorings.
An ornamental pond with swans and
water-lilies and a background of
rushes and trees, all worked in ma
tural colorings, is not considered too
flamboyant decoration for some
gowns.
Among the hats, big picture shapes,
close-fitting toques, little Breton and
tam-o-shanter shapes are among the
most popular for the coming season.
All hats will be worn we'll down on
the head. The fashionable colors will
be brown, chestnut and havana. Only
trimmings are bright.
The new autumn and winter hats
are made of moire, satin, panne, vel
vet, crepe satin, and felt. They may
be trimmed with ribbon, feathers,
ostrich tips, long ostrich plumes. or
cocks feathers that sweep the neck.
There will be much black millinery,
frightened by trimmings of silver,
gold and gay colors, but trimming
will not be overdone. Neatness is a
foremost quality of modern millinery,
but it may develop into hardness,
and then veil or scarf of tulle, vel
vet or soft satin is desirable cor
receive. Hats will not be light.

.LACROMA DARK STAR
OF The HAPSBURGS
Little Island on Dalmatian Coast
Scene Of Many Tragedies

Washington, d. c., July 27.-The
little island on the Dalmatian coast
which the post-world war treaty OF
San German made Jugo- Slavian ter
ritory, and which has just cost that
new Kingdom more than half mill
lion dollars of indemnity to its former
owner, Princess Elizabeth of Austria,
plays new role by thus bringing
something of value to a Hapsburg,"
says bulletin issued by the National
Geographic Society.
1.-The bit of territory might we'll
have been known heretofore as the
dark star of Inflated Hapsburg arch
dukes. Macmillan, brother of the
late Emperor Franz Joseph, left his
beautiful retreat there to become for
a brief period Emperor of Mexico
and to face a firing squad at Quere-
taro. Archduke Rudolph, son of Franz
Joseph and heir to the imperial
crown, counted Lacroma one of his
favorite homes in the years before the
tragedy that found him shot dead in
hunting lodge.

new DISCOVERY
MAKES TABLE
CLOTHS LOOK
new AGAIN
No Matter How Stained, They Wash
Out Spotless and Lustrous
White.

It has been found that when just
a little NACO, the wonderful new
discovery, is added to the wash water
with the soap, the table cloth you
thought ruined energies spotless,
white and lustrous as when it was
first taken from the hope chest.
NACO is the preparation now used
by textile manufacturers to give new
linen and cotton goods that marvel
Gus white sheen you so admire in
goods that have never been used. It
is now available to every housewife,
SO that Monday after Monday, year in
and year out, she can bring back that
snowy whiteness that usually disap-
pears at the first touch of the tub.
No matter what the spot or stain,
1t cannot stand before NACO. And
dirt and CRIME are quickly loosened
SO that the washboard is hardly
needed. Think what that means in
the longer life of the garments-the
snowiest that you ever saw without
wear ON the f1imsiest fabrics.
Not only in the washtub, but also
In the scrub bucket the housewife
has in NACO an ever-present help.

On the other hand, they are dress

gives the children greater freedom of

big shoe factories, including those at
the army and navy 'arsenals, are in

was In the hands of the Turks or the
Venetians. Laoroma, with the other
islands of the neighborhood. was a
part OF the Republic of Ragusa. and

ened commonwealth, and safe physi-
cally while the neighboring city sur
fered from its series of cruel earth
quakes.
Legend says Richard Coeur-de-
Lion was shipwrecked on Lacroma
and in gratitude for having his life
saved built there a chapel and monas-
terry At any rate, in 1923 Bene-
dictine monastery was founded on La
croma, and the island continued a re-
ligious community for centuries.
Through all the ups and downs of his
tory the island remained Ragusan ter
ritory until one of Napoleon's generals
captured the city In 1903 and pro-
claimed the republic to be at an end.
A new and unwelcome chapter opened
for Ragusa in 1915 when the Congress
of Vienna, tossing bits of Europe
about as 1t wished, gave Ragusa's ter
ritory to Austria.
Bought by Macmillan
Macmillan bought the island
about the middle of the nineteenth
century and converted the ruined
monastery into chateau for himself.
1t was after his execution that his
nephew, Rudolph, frequented the
island. When the second tragedy over
took the Hapsburgs the island and its
buildings were handed over to the
Dominican monks; but in 1911 the
imperial family regained possession
and 1t was given before the world
war to Princess Elizabeth as a mar
riage dowry. --

covered with smaller growth of semi

Look here. Brabazon. I'm sorry to

he said.
Her face fell. Her hands stole to
his sleeves. The look she bestowed
on him stirred the fires within.

parted at the spot where two paths

The residence of Chai-Hung was
surrounded by high pallisade.
There were three gates, set close to-
gether-a large portal with narrower
entrances on either side. The tall
Chinaman in greasy black who
leaned against this effective screen,
was rolling a cigarette with practiced
skill using tobacco which he fished
from the inner recesses of a rubber
pouch. He clipped oc the stray ends
with a pair of folding scissors, shield
ed the match with his hands, then
reached up and swung himself over
en- to the other side, dropping on to
the soft earth within bare twenty
feet of bamboo joss-house with an
open front. There were tiled steps
leading UP to a long altar. illuminated
with paper lanterns, and on the altar
itself rested two bronze urns in which
charcoal was burning.
