"HE pattern for this dress is
cut with straight, uncompli-
Gated lines, so that you may
i make 1t in vivid plaids or
talkative checks, without en-
countering the general run of diff
culties in matching the design. If
you use striped fabric, interesting Ell
fects can be achieved by making the
sleeves on the bias. The French are
artists on this score. Some of their
best models this season, feature loose,
casual sleeves Of this type, cut the
other way of the material.
This particular frock Of fine, warm
wool, in rich and stirring colors, is
a smart necessity for informal day
wear under your Winter coat. Its
chic lies in its straight-line simplicity
and the slimming achievements of the
diagonal opening at the side. Our
sketch shows the collar worn modiShly
high and close to the throat. Another
and to some, more fiattering-way
to wear it is open, and falling softly
down the front.
The dress is brimming with alter
mating possibilities for the woman who
likes fresh changes in her clothes.
Most of us find this season which
offers an unusual wealth of acces-
sories from which to choose. Belts

Opinions.

SkAAAS"
WE OFTEN wonder why most hu-
w man beings will fight for the
salvation of their opinions, prejudices
and beliefs. There are those who risk
their livelihoods for the sake of their
pet opinions. They call themselves
men Of principles" Principles are
weighty things. They possess mo-
mentum, resistance and other stub
born qualities.
There seems to be q law Of nature
involved in all this relatively futile
warfare between and among minds.
Human beings are aggressively inter-
ested in the preservation, If not the
enlargement, Of what they take to be
self-respect. We might call this the
law of the picturing Of ideas. Ones
ideas, collectively speaking, are con-
sidered equivalent to ones own self.
This, OF course. Is fictitious self, be-
cause most of our ideas are erroneous.
This leads us to the reason why
people SO often risk everything to
save one small principle. 1t Is this:
Your fictitious self, so far as you can
understand 1t, amounts to an actual
self Its right to exist stands above
every other consideration, including
your body. At least, that's what you
imagine.
And 50 minds rule the world Of
matter. The mind Is q system Of will
energies. 1t works as surely as the
law Of gravitation. Perhaps you can
describe mind best by calling 1t
mental gravitation, q natural leaning
toward a system of ideas.

sufferers from this dread disease.
When recovery from well-seated dis
ease occurs one Of two things has hap
pened, always. Either the body has
succeeded in building up such resist
ance as will allow it to carry on with
a semblance of the normal in spite of
the causes of disease, or else these
causes have disappeared.
So loug as the cause Is still oper-
ative, then nothing but huge and
increasing tolerance will permit Of
even a semblance Of recovery.
Now, II you will 60 back q few
weeks, you will note that the cause Of
all disease Is an accumulation Of the
acid end-products Of digestion and
metabolism, waste that has resulted
from the death Of body cells and from
the oxidation of food products In the
system.
When this collection Of acid end
products is greater than the body can
fully oxidize, neutralize and eliminate,
then there IS a gradual accumulation
in the blood stream, the body fluids
and all the tissues Of this unburned
waste, and when this is sufficient to tie
up more of our alkalin reserve than
We can spare we suffer comparably In
function, which means that we have to
this extent disease Of some sort.
Recovery from disease Is function
OF the body itself, with which treat
ment has nothing whatever to do. We
recover or we fail to do so as we have
vitality enough or not enough to throw
of the waste and restore the tissues to
the normal alkalinity.
This Is all we can do to assist re-
covery, merely to stop the creation Of
sd vast quantities Of the acid end
products of digestion, and the conse-
quent metabolism of this unbalanced
waste matter.

are caught each year now, and the
fishermen Of Provincetown must be
limited to a certain number Of bar
rels q day, as the fish is more abun-
dant than the demand.
The meat of this fish is sweet and
tender, but it softens easily, and for
this reason, unless marketed quickly
or placed in cold storage. loses its
flrmness and flavor.
This northern fish has a cousin in
Europe, as well as one in California.
Their habits are much alike, and to
know about one is to know about all
three.
The whiting differs from the true
hakes in several ways, but the most
outstanding difference for the average
student to note is that the whiting
lacks the chin barbel which all true
hakes have.
From June until October Is the pc
riod during which the whiting of New
England spawns. July and August be-
ing the months most Of the spawning
is done. The majority Of gglaying
fish are taken at depths Of so to 800
fathoms off the coast of Southern
New England. However, you can see
that spawning takes place at varying
depths
The eggs float to the surface of the
water. They are tiny, but they de-
velop very rapidly in water that is
from so to so degrees in temperature,
and in 40 to 48 hours, or even less
time in warmer waters, the baby fish
hatch. They are too small to see,
except by those who know what to
look for, and even then, it Is easily
possible to miss them.
The little fish soon take to the bot
tom Of the water. BY the first of
Autumn, they are from l to ~
inches long. Here they may be seen
with larger members Of their family.
The whiting usually inhabits the
middle depth of the ocean, but Is
often seen chasing schools of herring
and other small fish close to the sur
face. It attacks its victims when
they are In schools. Single individ-
uals apparently do not offer enough
food. Provided with very sharp teeth,
in a large and powerful mouth, this
swift swimmer can overtake its prey
with little difficulty.
The whiting has been taken in the
Spring in the Chesapeake, in the
lower section Of the bay, not far from
the capes. Its appearances. however,
vary from year to year, and are too
erratic to be Of importance for
anglers.

Turkerman

THIS name was originally written
"Tokerman." q surname derived
from the Anglo-Saxon "teogan," which
later took the form of "toke." A
''toker" or tucker" was one whose
business it was to beat cloth in a
fulling mill. This word was a provin-
cialism Of Devonshire, England. and
records of the name Tokerman (or
TuckermanT can be traced to that
locality as far back as the year 1445.
The first emigrant to America was
John Tuckerman Of Devonshire, who
arrived in Boston in 1854.

brought to America by John Tucker

British Customs.

A LETTER from England, written
by our Corner friend, Dorothie
Smith, contains some interesting points
about the English view Of Halloween.
Halloween" writes Dorothie, "is
one of the old traditions which are
not followed very much in England
now, because people do not believe in
witches and the like. Some of the
'oddments' are still kept up. though.
Halloween is called by other names
--'Nutcrack night and Holy Eve
"On this night it was believed that
spirits roamed abroad. Some young
girls thought that If they performed
certain rituals, they would be able to
see their future husbands at midnight
in their mirrors. Little Is known Of
the rituals, but some say that the
maiden could not eat any supper, nor
look out of the window or anywhere
else except straight in front of her
while she walked toward a mirror.
1T is likely that more than one
young man found a way of making
his face appear in the mirror-by
walking on tiptoe behind the maiden.
THE Eve of st. Agnes IS very
lovely poem written about some of
the Halloween legends.

lanO people still roast cheStnuts and
believe that they will see their true
loves, and spirit beings as well, lurk-
ing around the fire"
In the villages and small towns Of
Scotland during the time of Robert
Burns young fellows bent on mischief
often gathered cabbages and went
about 'thumping'' them against doors.
That was mischief, but there has
been worse mischief on Halloween
during the memory of many persons
still living. In general, I think that
young folks have become more
thoughtful least they seem to do
less serious mischief-but some do
things which would be better left un-
done.
A good rule, which will serve at
Halloween, as well as at any other

~HATTERER the Red Squirrel
was teasing Peter Rabbit,
but Peter Is used to being
~ teased and he really didn't
mind SO very much. He still
wasn't certain whether 1t was true
that Chatterer knew that the Winter
was to be early, but he was inclined
to think that it was true. Had he
not seen with his own eyes that Chat
terer had begun his annual harvest
much sooner than ever he had been
known to do 1t before? And what
possible reason could he have for be-
ginning so early II he didn't know
that Winter was coming early? He
couldn't see any reason why Chatterer
should know any more about what
the weather was to be than any one
else, and he said so. To this Chat
terer had replied that he couldn't
either.
There were two ways Of taking this.
It might mean that Chatterer did
know about the coming Winter, but
didn't know why others shouldn't
know it also. Or 1t might mean that
he didn't know anything about the
weather of the future But II he didn't
know why should he be working so
hard now when the weather was still
warm when he might do 1t so much
more comfortably in the cool days Of
Autumn?
"You said that there is a reason
why you have begun so early" said
Peter.
There is" replied Chatterer.
"Well, II it isn't because you know
Winter Is coming early what Is it?"
demanded Peter.
Peter, you give me tired feeling"
retorted Chatterer. you do so. II
you found an extra fine bunch OF
sweet clover what would you do?"
Eat it," replied Peter promptly.
Eat it before some one else did"
Just so," said Chatterer. you
would eat it while you could get it."
"Of course" replied Peter, i would
get it while the getting was good.
Any one who doesn't is foolish"
"Just the way feel about it," said
Chatterer. Now you know the reason
why I have begun my harvest early.
I'm getting while the getting Is good"
Peter blinked uncertainty. And the
weather hasn't thing to do with it?"
he asked.

it, but not next Winters weather. I

leaps and jumps about In its own

1t is because Of the habits Of the
latter that We have the allusion to
the former in the expression Ito cut

all familiar.
But what, it may occur to the curl
GUS mind, has a goat to do with cut
ting capers? The answer lies In the
fact that the Latin word for goat Is
"caper."

c. T. Revere, Financial Expert, Believes Time Has
 Come to Pull Together and Stop Criticism

New York, Sept. 17.-With the general commodity index sustained around the present level, C. T. Revere, financial expert, expresses the opinion, that it should be pos sible to correct numerous dispari- ties between various producing and consuming groups, and give the country the basis for a prolonged period of sound prosperity.
 "The ironing out process has says, land with progress toward tween the various groups there Is an automatic increase in general purchasing power. This, We believe. should be sufficient to make price defiation unnecessary.
 Definite recovery should be the logical outcome of a completion of refundfng operations through the absorption of government securities by the American investment pub- lie and the release of bank credi, for the expansion of business and industry"
 There is evidence on all sides demonstrating the abundance oi funds awaiting investment, MT Re. were points out, and the volume oi investment demand should be suf, ficient to take care of all offerings The one requirement. to such ar eventuality is confidence on tho part of the investing community ir the validity and safety of govern. ment securities.
 ''This confidence can be inspired by a definite assurance from tn, president that there will be no fur. .ther manipulation of our currency and that the emergency expendi lures will be diminished as rapidly as is socially and economically
