The front-lacing prtnicple (originated Dy ine n. w. uossarti vo.) has accom plished much for the fcomfort and con venience of woman's Areas. Of even greater importance than front lacing, however, has bekn the genius displayed in the actual Assigning and . making of Gossard Corsets. So outstanding and thorough has Deen tnis work that, great a the front lacing principle is, the Gossartd method of design and manufacture transcends - it, and the two combined occupy a po sition so commanding that they are now recorded as an International vogue. Regardless of the cost every GoBaard Corset conforms to but one standard in style, workmanship and wearing service. A complete line of the new fall models nd sizes always on hand. .Prices $3.50 to (8.5?, MRS. UOBT. PATTISON, Corsetiere. Res. 1702, Cor. Spring and Oak. Phone Red 8221 Sick Two Tears With Indigestion A local creamery has the proud dis tinction of getting second prize in the butter mukers' contest which was de cided Friday afternoon by Govern ment Inspector G. M. Lembert, of bait Lake City. The home concern came so near to first that it must have made the first prize taker feel pretty uncomiortaoie. 2 Hut half a point was between first and second prize win ners and the inspector pondered long and deeply before making his final decision. When it is known that the butter which was entered in this con test was from a 446 pound, regular every day churning it is some argu ment that people of the city need not go out of town for butter that is first class in every respect. It might be said that every day's churning is going to be just as good or nearly so and that no special effort is being made to make just one supremely good output of butter.' , , It is usual in contests of this kind to select the very best cream for the butter that is to stand aside of entries from all parts of the northwest for honors. It is another boost for the creamery as weH as for the city and all citizens yill take pride in knowing that we h'nve an institution here in our midst second almost to none in the three stages.. Then this is the second prize for the local creamery in one year. The former prize was won at the In terstate fair at Spokane when' butter from all parts of the United States, was entered for prizes; with ' tho boost goe'e a substantial prize.' C. W.

Our budge wus a bit of blue ribbon tied in the buttonhole of tho meu members und somewhere on the corsage of the women. I was an enthusiastic advocate of the temperance cause and always wore my colors. The day I alighted from the train on my quest for a career a young man witb a pleasing face and as pleasing smile on it stepped up to me and, tak ing from me u satcbel I carried, said: "Here you nre. Cousin Bess!" Now. my name happened to be Eliza beth. Had it not been so I should have probably told the young man that be was mistaken In the person. ' As it was, 1 thought for a moment that some of my numerous cousins living in the city whom I bud never seen had got wind of my coming and had concluded to meet me. ' "You ore" I asked. "I'm Ned Olcoit We received your letter mentioning the blue ribbon. Ev erything Is prepared for you. We have succeeded in getting a position for you in the high school. Vou're to teach history. ! 1 believe that's , what you wanted, isn't it?" We were moving witb the throng and by this time had reached the sta tlon exit. There was something so In genuous, so kindly, as well as dignified, in' the young man's face and manner that my heart went right ont to him. I was seized with a curiosity to know what he wonld do with me. I hesitat ed a few moments whether I would In form him of bis mistake or delay, Meanwhile he called a cab, and the driver came dashing up to the curb. "Are you sure?" I began and stopped. "Quite so, Mother said I was to bring you straight home. Get In.1 I yielded. After ail. was not this a relative? , At any rate, I would act for awhile as If he were. Perhaps he was.

An old lady, with a lovable fare and snow white hair, backed by two young girls, received me, welcoming me witb a kiss. ' "Why, Cousin Bess," exclaimed the elder girl, "how you've changed! You don't look at jiH us you did when we played together ten years ago." "Elizabeth must be tired and hungry Helen, show her to her room. Dinner will Jbo ready In half hour." I was glad to escape, for that time at least, from my equivocal position Helen left me to think over what 1 should do. I had gone so far that any course I might pursue wonld result in mortification. I would not be able to make these kind persons believe that had been drawn into their brother's mistake. I was sure there was u mis take, for Just before going upstairs 1 had been asked how I had left my stepmother, and I had no stepmother. I was too confused to make much of a toilet t employed my time try ing to think of 11 way out of my dilem ma. Not finding any way to suit me. I resolved to await n favorable opportu nlty to make It appear that I had been taken up by relatives that I had never seen. : When the ha;f hour bad passed I went downstairs, und there in trav ellng dress stood the real Bess, the mother, the son and the two daughters regarding her as if not knowing wbnt to make of her.
