Gov. Nestos spoke of the wonder
full organization which Mr.. Willys
had built up. He declared a better
understanding between the east and
the west could best be had by meet
ing the men of the great industrial
plants. He paid a great tribute to
the resources of the state and de-

Mr.. WHY'S stressed the fact that
North Dakota was in better shape
than many other states, especially
those centers with $4O0 an acre land
due to wartime initiation. He said
this state had as good land at from
$50 to $50 an acre and that in the
process of readjustment North Da-
kota stood we'll to make decided
gains where initiation had not OBJ
tained.
He praised the resources of the
state and said he was impressed with
the great future that was in store
for this section.

My Neighbor Says:

Rain spots on clothes can
often be removed by placing a
clean. damp cloth on the ma
terial and pressing it with a
moderate warm iron.-
When two tumblerS get stuck
together. separate them by pour
ing cold water into the inner
one and then fairly hot water
on the outer one. The heat
expands the outer glass and
they soon separate.
If a child is hungry after
school let him have some bread
and butter and a glass of milk,
but not enough to dull his
appetite for supper. II a child
is actually hungry, and grow
ing children often are because
their tissues and bones and
muscles are being built up
every moment of the day, he
will eat bread and butter and
be satisfied. If he has to have
sweets he is not hungry.
Instead of always folding
tablecloths and sheets length
wise it is an excellent plan
sometimes to fold them the
other way, as they are less
likely to wear out if the folds
are occasionally changed.
In ironing silks, woolens and
colored materials, use medium
hot irons. Iron all these ma
terials on the wrong side, ex-
cept aprons and children's
dresses that keep clean longer,
if they have smooth surface.
Silks and woolens may be
ironed on the right side if
covered with dampened cheese
cloth.

Aigrettes Initiated by. Americans
BY MARY MARSHALL.

To the Partisan there is something
fncomprehensible about our laws
against wearing aigrette, but the
French milliners know that these
laws exist. They know that. for the
very reason American women are
native shores, they very much like
to wear it where they are permitted
to do so. and they very much admire
the effect of aigrette when it can be
gained well within the law
Perhaps 1t is the ruling against
aigrette in this country that was at
the bottom of all the ingenious ma
nipulation of ostrich and other
plumage to bring them into the guise
of aigrette. At any rate, there is no
longer much in the way of an aigrette
fancy that cannot be duplicated by
some other means. Some of the
French pompons much admired at the
present time are aigrette, but they
are just as satisfactory when made
of ostrich. The fad for the pompon
is part and parcel of the revival of
the Spanish mode. 1t is hard to i'm
agine Spanish CoStumery without red
pompons. The hat trimmed with two
or three pompons at one side is re-
vived every once in so often and
never seems to fail to find many ad-
mirers. One very smart hat recently
spoken of in Paris was a straight
Spanish sailor with a pair of pom
ponS at the back, one above and one
below the brim close to the crown.
High h-crowned felt shapes with lit
tie turn-up brims make strong appeal
to the younger generation when
trimmed neatly with a pompon or
two. AS the season advances larger
pompons seem to be growing in fa
yor, and sometimes there are orna-
ments Of feathers made to look like
aigrette that take the form of little
whisk brooms, projecting off the hat
at one side. These are the logical
successors of the shaving brush orna-
ments that held favor two seasons
ago.
Very wide hats Seem to have sur
Vived the first frost, and sometimes
take on many inches of width by
means of horizontally placed plumage
One very wide-brimmed hat of black
velvet and satin shows aigrettes that
are really peacock feathers.

Color Scheme in Clothes.

It's fairly easy matter to acquire
color scheme in a single costume.
but did you ever try buying your
entire seasons wardrobe with one
definite color plan in mind?
This Is a great deal more difficult
but 1t Is well worth while, both from
the standpoint of good dressing and
OF economy. and 1t can be done IL
you know the basic principles.
The first step Is to determine upon
a background color" This is the
rather dark color which forms the
basis OF your wardrobe, and the one
with which all the coiors in 1t must
blend. Your selection should be
swayed both by becomingness and
by style. Brown, blue and black, for
instance, are always acceptable
choices as background colors" when
they are fashionable and becoming.
Now, this background color" Is to
be the shade for your principal gar
ment, the mainstay of your seasons
wardrobe. Sometimes this important
garment will be q suit, sometimes a
cloth coat and a dress. sometimes
fur coat. At any rate, around this gar
ment the rest Of your wardrobe is to
be built.
Say. for instance. that you choose
brown for your suit or coat; then
some color that blends particularly
well with brown, say beige. 1t can
not be purple, gray or lavender, as it
might if your background color"
were blue.
Remember, too, that you may quite
often want to wear the same hat with
an odd dress, as well as with your
suit or coat That means that this
dress, too, must be of some shade that
will go" at least reasonably we'll
with brown.
1t is particularly important to have
a well-worked-out color scheme when
you own d fur coat. For, to the
woman in moderate circumstances
not only would the fur coat be the
determining factor which influences
all her other buying for the season.
but it would be an important article
of wearing apparel for a number of
years to come. And it is disappoint-
ing to buy one of the much worn

What's in q Pore =?
'avorite mean assertions of mine

Favorite mean assertions of mine:
The skin has no pores.
Neither food, nor water, nor medi-
cine, nor air, nor gas, nor salve nor
poison is absorbed through the un-
broken skin.
These are unadorned or naked phys
iological facts. 1t seems that facts
are annoying in any case. and when
they're physiological facts they're
downright irritating. But readers
who feel eXasperated by those physi-
illogical facts will please bear in mind
that they are not facts because l as
sert them, but that l merely mention
them here because they are facts.
/ get regular lessons in sarcasm in
the rather voluminous correspond
ence on the subject of pores People
who feel they must preserve the pores
of the skin at all hazards, or else go
out and look for honest work, are
past masters in the use of sarcasm.
Their demonstrations rather spoil my
own fondness for it, because after all
it betrays weakness of position.
AT one time you state" writes
correspondent - though I never
state" anything, l merely say, men,
tion or assert it-"that it is hokum
to imagine the skin has pores, but
in another place you say the skin
excretes water and oil. If the skin
has no pores, yet eXcretes water
and oil, the question, whether it
sounds silly, ignorant or whatnot to
you, arises in my mind that the skin
must have pores and absorb. To me
it seems that if the skin can excrete
it can absorb. OF course, you know
what is correct and l admire and ap-
preciate your writings, but l just do
not understand the non-absorbing,
excreting mechanism of the skin"

is the view thousands take. 1t would
be dreadful situation for those of
us with skins. however. for it would
constantly expose us to risks which
we ordinarily escape because the skin
doesn't absorb things. Water runs
down hill and will not run the other
way. Several glands in the body ex-
crete various substances but cannot
be made to absorb anything The
sweat glands and the sebaceous toiD
glands of the skin are built and de-
signed for excretion but not for alb
Sorption.
The popular use of liniments and
similar applications to the skin, often
with distinct benefit or relief from
pain. seems to imply the absorption
of something through the skin
Counter irritation is the usual expla-
nation of the relief to pain or sore
ness. In many instances the lni-
ment. salve or embrocation contains
volatile ingredients which, becoming G
vaporized by the warmth of the body
and friction, are inhaled more or less
by the individual.
Experiments which have been con-
Quoted to demonstrate absorption
through the unbroken skin leave lit
tie to conjecture on. Rather the con-
clusions reached from careful expert
ments are that no appre0able alb
sorption can take place through the
| normal skim geo.. -s--'-s -
When you blister, scratch, scarify
| puncture or cut into the skin, ther
it is comparatively easy to brins
about the absorption of medicament,
| or poisons.
The principal purpose of my repe.
tition of the physiological facts abou
| the skin is to save the unsophisti.
