NEW YORK, oct. 20.-Being
brilliant about your evening
clothes is simple this season.
what with all the sparkling,
scintillating gadgets available.
First, we had the metallic
cloths, then sequinS and rhine
stones; now we have beading
the newest trick in being bril-
liant without being Broadway
ish.
There isn't anything overdone
about these beaded frocks-
none Of your all-over beaded
embroideries this season!-just
a discreet touch Of crystal, cut
steel or bugle beading placed
where it will do the most good.
For those of us who like to
be a bit gay but not garish
about our "going places" clothes,
we recommend the beaded frock.
Blessed Event Corner
It's ridiculous to think that a
woman has to dress like a shape
less sack just because she's going
to have a baby. OF course, it's
true that most maternity dresses,
far from being flattering, make
figures look even worse when
the filling-out stage arrives-but
there's one shop in town where
they believe a woman can be
modish, though maternal.
They've finally found the per-
feet maternity dress! It has
shoulder wings that help bal
ance the bustline when it begins
to enlarge, and an adjustable
waistline that allows for any
variation in width. What's more,
it has the smartest stunt we've
seen so far-a combination of
the surplice line and straight
front panel-the two most flat
tering fashions for mothers-to-
be.
They also have a tweed top
coat that's so swagger and
EngGsh-looking that you'd never
dream there's a "blessed event"
figure underneath!
And then there's a short,
waist-length nightgown Of crepe
and lace-a bright idea because
they don't like long, trailing
nighties in hospitals, you know.
Yet it's lacey and lovely enough
at the top to give you all the
coquettish charm of a bed
jacket!
And lots of other clever tricks
like that!

She Decided to Get Solid
With the Boss
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:


I am a young girl working
in a motion picture theater
and I decided to get myself IN
solid with the owner, so I
foolishIy played up to him. !
am considered quite pretty, and
it did not take long for this
man, who is old enough to
be my father. to fall for me.
It seemed all right in the
beginning, but now it doesn't,
and as I don't want to lose my
position, which I need, I keep
on pretending I like him, but
I am sick Of him and his hang
ing around. Besides, he is
married. I am tired of pre-
tending, but don't know what
to do, as I am afraid to let
him know I don't like him.
Your advice may help me as
well as other girls.
USHERETTE.
The only way to get out OF
q situation such as you describe
Is to get another job. and

Thin Hands


Question: Is there anything
can do for thin hands? My
hands are very thin, and, to me,
look ugly. Also do you know of
a way in which 1 can enlarge
my hips" J. r. M.
Answer: The best way to
normalize any particular part of
the body is by building muscle
through exercise. Each and
every time it occurs to you,
spread the hands apart and then
contract them. Fold them over
and then back. Your imagina-
ton will devise many ways Of
bringing these muscles into
play. Cut the fingers out of an
old pair of gloves and apply
cocoa-butter or lanolin at night
to the hands. One of the best
exercises for normalizing the
hips is bicycle riding. Either
actual bike-riding or laying on
the floor with the feet extended
in the air.

theater she told me of the SIM
pie routine which keeps her
complexion and her makeup
looking the way they should.
In private life Miss Fuller is
Mrs. Worthington Miner. She
has a son named Peter, aged 3,
who accompanied her to Wash.
tngton. Mr.. and Mrs. Miner
and the little boy are staying at
the Shoreham.
Fresh Complexion
Miss Fuller weighs only 95
pounds and she is a little over
five feet in height. When
asked about what she did to
keep her skin young and fresh
(and her skin is very fine in
texture and inclined to be dry),
she said:
"The less you do to your skin,
the better off you are. l use a
little cleansing cream and skin
tonic on mine and that is just
about all.
81 love to have a facial Occa-
SiOnally, but 1 don't like the
method Of giving the skin too
much patting. 1t is bound to
break down the tissues and
make the muscles sag.
II like to have a lot of creams
Smeared all over my face, with
out having them worked into
the skin too much by hard
patting."
Miss Fuller almost never uses
water on her face. She cleanses
it night and morning with a
thin cleansing cream which she
follows with an application of
skin tonic. (And if you write
to me I will tell you the brand
she useS.)
No Water
When she was in Hollywood
making a movie this summer,
she says that the Western eli
mate made her skin very dry,
so she was forced to use a skin
food. Otherwise, she uses only
the cleansing cream, and every
once in a while freshens her
skin by rubbing piece of ice
over it.
She has her hair Ozark brown
in color shampooed frequently,
about once a week. She usually
has a hot oil shampoo which
keeps it from becoming dry and
brittle.
Miss Fuller, for daytime
makeup uses very little. Her
skin is very fair and she prefers
q light rachel powder and very
red, carmen red, lipstick. She
never uses rouge or any other
makeup for daytime.
Eye Shadows
We made an interesting dis
covery about makeup on inquir-
ing about her theatrical routine.
Blue eye shadow is the wrong
thing for blue eyes on the stage!
Instead, you must blend brown
and carmen, to get a purplish
color, which Miss Fuller uses on
her eyelidS.
She uses ochre color grease
paint, next puts on grease
rouge, eyeshadow, powder dry
rouge, and black around the
eyes. That is the routine in
order.
You might want to copy Miss
Fuller's nail enamel. It is lovely!
In the first place her nails taper
to long points. Then she mas
them painted with an enamel
| in a shade called rose-pearl,
! which makes them look all sill
very!

MagnifYing Mirror

Question: I bought one of
the magnifying mirrors you

satisfactory. See yourself as
others see you and with a
vengeance in this contrivance.
Now am worried about the
large pores in my cheeks and
chin. T. d.

Beauty Queries
and Answers
Large Mouth

Large Mouth
Question: have q mouth OF
very generous proportions. AS
long as I keep a straight face,
well, it still looks q generous
mouth, but a fairly refined one.
But when I laugh my face re-
sembles nothing more than a
large gash-my other features
are completely obscured: What
can you suggest that might be
the means Of making it look
smaller? j. L.
Answer - Accentuate the
cupid's bow in the center of your
upper lip, and don't bring the
lipstick way down to the corners
of your mouth. Apply very little
lipstick to the lower lip, just
enough to give it some color,
and again don't bring it to the
corners. Pick out YOUR best
feature and make it as attrac-
tive as possible to draw atten-
ton away from your mouth.
Practice smile before your
mirror, that can be called into
use at all times instead Of the
hearty laugh you evidently use.

Chapeaux

Question: / wear glasses and
I'm also short. What type of
hat do you suggest for me to
wear?-C. N.
Answer: Since you wear
glasses, a tiny brimmed hat with
a not too shallow crown will
probably be most becoming to
you. If your glasses are rim
less, some brimless hats will be
attractive, particularly those
with an ornament built high on
the crown, as, naturally enough,
these will give the desired ef-
feet of height.

UNITED EMPIRE TO
 WORK ALL WINTER

The United Empire company vii continue development op- erations throughout the com ing winter season and also plans to make shipments of ore at intervals, it was made known by Wm. Damn, general manag- CT of the company, following his return Thursday from a business trip to Vancouver.
 This is cheerful news for Stewart as it means a substan- tail payroll for the camp dur ing the hardest period of the year and when business is at a minimum.
 A crew of 25 or more men will be employed on the. prop erty. which will also provide revenue for various other in- dustries through supply pur- chases, transportation, etc.

Huge Grizzly Reported
 Seen North of Hyder

Members of the search party engaged in hunting for David MvVay last week report seeing a huge bear, evidently of the grizzly species, far up on the mountainside above the River side mine. Although a quarter mile or more away from the ob- servers, the animal is said to have appeared as large as an OK despite the distance.
 It has long been rumored that a grizzly had his habitat in the mountains west of Salmon river but the animal has been seen only at long intervals.

Alex. Taylor Passes at Sitka

Alexander B. Taylor, elderly local resident who left recently to enter the Pioneer Home at Sitka, passed away there last Saturday, according to a radio report received by E. L. Dale, manager of the local radio station.
 MT. Taylor was a resident of the camp for a decade or more and was highly regarded by all who knew him. He was a native of Nova Scotia but came to the United States in the sos and was naturalized at Boston. Before coming to Hyder he re- sided at Nome, Fairbanks and other points in Alaska. He had no living relatives.

alleged to have been respons- ible as "the most backward step that has been taken by the United States since the demon etization of silver in 1873, and, instead of stabilizing the inter. national or domestic financial yardstick would tend to per- petuate the evils from which all classes of our society are now suffering"
 In short, both silver leaders accuse Pittman indirectly of double-crossing the Senate and country by ignoring the explic- it instructions to "work unceas- ingly" for remonetization of silver on a definite ratio with gold and substituting his own proposals in no way relating to remonetization or definite stabilization.
 It is recalled in this connect ion that Senator Pittman has at times displayed an obvious re- luctance to discuss the silver is sue from the standpoint of re- monetization, although con- :itantly advocating increased use of silver as a monetary medium by the United States. During one of the several ex- tended debates on silver re- monetization in the Senate this year he is shown by the Cong ressional Record to have indi- cated that he was not seeking silver remonetization but want ed to "do something for silver" " matter of considerable i'm portance to his constituency.
 From all of which it appears likely that Pittman will be "called on the carpet" by some of his senatorial colleagues in the coming session of Congress.

JOSEPH H. WILSON
 CALLED TO REST

Joseph H. Wilson, Village Commissioner of Stewart and one of the districts most wide ly known residents, answered the call of the Grim Reaper Thursday night; passing away peacefully in his sleep.
 MT. Wilson's demise was dis covered by his wife when she received no answer on call ing him for breakfast Friday morning. Death apparently oc- cured not long after midnight as the body was only slightly warm.
 Although MT. Wilson had not been in robust health recently and had remarked to a friend Thursday afternoon that he was not feeling very we'll, his unfortunate passing was en- tirely unexpected and occas- toned a severe shock to his many friends. He was GA years of age.
 His widow and aged mother, who is understood to reside in Ohio, are the surviving relat- ives.
 MT. Wilson was an American by nativity but had resided in Canada many years and be- came a naturalized citizen. Be- fore coming to this section some ten years ago, he was in the Atlin and Yukon districts.
 During his long residence in Stewart he was at all times prominent in the affairs of that community. He was for several years in government employ as custodian in charge of the gov ernment liquor vendors store and also held the position of secretary of the Stewart Gen. eral Hospital Association. He was engaged in the insurance business at the time of his death. His untimely passing is a distinct loss to the com munity and district, for the progress and welfare of which he was ever an interchangeable and enthusiastic worker.
 MT. Wilson was elected a member of the Stewart Board of Commissioners at the annual election in January and was a capable and efficient public of- ficer.
 He was a member of the To- cal Igloo of the Pioneers of Alaska and greatly interested in the affairs of that organiz- ation.
 The funeral will be held in Stewart Sunday afternoon at 2:30 p. m., with local inter- ment

BIMETALLIC LEADERS
 CONDEMN PITTMAN
 SILVER AGREEMENTS

IGducTS ucIlOuilCc anu Icpuul- ate the Pittman plan for op- tional use of silver, as adopted at the recent London confer ence, and also severely con- demn it's author for alleged op- en disregard of the wishes of the American people as ex- pressed in the instructions giv- en by the Senate to the Amer ican delegation to London, is revealed in a pamphlet re- ceived this week by the Herald from William A. Hesse, Terri torial Highway Engineer and himself an ardent and widely informed advocate of bimetall- ism.
 The pamphlet contains a ser ies of letters and press state ments relative to the Pittman silver agreements by Senators Burton K. Wheeler, former Senator c. s. Thomas, of Colo rado, and former Senator Jon athan Bourne of Oregon which not only severely criticize Pitt mans proposals but also seri- ously reflect on his good faith in dealing with the silver issue.
 Senator Thomas scathingly condemns what he terms Pitt mans "heresy" in advocating only limited use of silver and declares that his proposals turned the hand of Time back ward for at least a generation and defeated all immediate prospect of the reestablish- ment of the double standard"
 '"The blow is emphasized" MT. Thomas says, " by the re- flection that it comes from within our own ranks. A so- called free coinage man, hail. ing from Nevada, and recom- mending a use of silver limited to 20 per cent of our gold re- serves, is hopelessly in conflict with the Senator's alleged pur- pose"
 The international aspects of Pittmann's proposals are indi- cated in the following para graph from the Thomas state, ment:
 "The outstanding feature of this deplorable tragedy, for tragedy it is, consists of the fact that, France and a very few minor governments eX- cepted, the leading nation have been coming to our way of thinking; hence we can well imagine their embarrassment when America leads as an ad- vocate of the existing system covered by few meaningless platitudes. :"
 Senator Wheeler is quoted as declaring that Americas dele gation to the World Economic Conference ignored Senate in- structions to propose remone- tization of silver on a definite ratio to gold and condemns the plan for which Pittman is

PUBLIC WORKS ADMINISTRATION
 CRITICISED.

While it may be or less true that Alfred E. Smith is permitting resentment against President Roosevelt's Administration to cloud his Judgment III condemning the Public Works Administration as a crazy topheavy structure choked with bureaucracy there will be not inconsiderabe number of people who will side with the outspoken New Yorker who has been the one outspoken critic of the Admin istration since it went into office. Mir smith mas not minced words in vocing his objections to several of the major policies of President Roosevelt. And no one would deny him the right to his opinion and to express it. Healthy criticism is the surest means of bringing about efficiency in administrations It serves to keep those criticised their jobs, alert and alive
 In Alaska, have not found the Public works Administration failure. It has been as successful as even it sponsors could desire. Here the funds allotted to projects have been expended by the Alaska Road Commission largely, if not entirely. After some initial delay in making the allotments, and that was not serious the funds were made immediately available and put to work at once Hundreds of were employed and kept at work as long as weather conditions permitted. Some of them are still working. There no red tape about the expenditures and none about getting the money in the hands of those who needed it.
 ? Undoubtedly there has been serious delay in accomplishing that objective in large section Of the country. This not caused by red tape on the part of the Administration authorities. Not once but many times, Secretary Ickes, Public Works Administrator, called attention to the delay and it's He warned States of the evils that would follow and said plainly that the fault would be theirs and not his; that he didn't intend to be made the goat" their failure to put to work the money the Federal Government was providing.
 It is easy enough to criticise. AT Smith is an expert at it. But he would serve the public more wisely if he turned his batteries those who have been holding back State organizations, Federal bureaus not under the control and direction of the Public Works Administration rather than con- demn the latter useless.

judgment that Californians will render at the polls next year.
 The Nation did not approve of President Hoovers method of handling the bonus marchers." Its re- sentiment nyer that ~episoog; riaJoI cause in the disaster that overlook the President and his party in 1882, was undoubtedly contribut- ing factor. The contrast furnished by President Roosvelts treatment of the second Bonus Exped- tion, which comfortably housed and fed at Government expense and it's members given jobs, was typical of the difference of the human touch of the two men. President Hoover was badly advised and without that element in mans makeup that makes for close contact with his fellows in which President Roosevelt exces made of the saddest mistakes of his official It is President Roose- vets acute realization of human needs, human aims and aspirations that have set him so high in the hearts of the people of this country. They feel he is one of them that he knows their sufferings, visuazes their problems and is doing everything in his power to end the and solve the other.
