Meeting in Seattle Next Wednesday. RAILROADS ARE TO HLP Combination of Big Attractions la to Bo Given Nation-Wide Adver tising Side Trips Are to Be Left to Various Cities. The flrrt hlg effort to place the at tractions of the Northwest before the tourist world and to do it In a compre hensive and attraotlve manner Is to be plannod at a meeting at Seattle next Wednesday. ' Portland Is to be represented by a strong delegation, both the Chamber of Commerce and the Automobile Club having agreed to send delegates. The Portland party will act for the entire state of Oregon In working out the Idea of advertising the Northwest as a whole. The plan Is to pick out the outstand ing scenlo attractions of ' the NorthweBt and to combine them In an advertising campaign, the cities and railroads of Oregon. Washington and Idaho absorb ing the expense in proportionate amounts, ( Big Attractions to Be Shown. It Is not Intended that every city and town shall be individually ad vertised, but that the campaign shall dwell on a combination of big attrac tions, such as the Columbia River Highway, Crater Lake, Mount Hood, the Marble Halls of Oregon, Rainier National Park, the Georgian Circuit, embracing Pugret Sound. Victoria and Vancouver. It Is advocated by the promoters of the plan that a combination of these attractions makes the biggest scenlo route In the world, but that no single community is strong enough to finance a campaign for Its own attraction. It is also pointed out that no one attraction is of Itself sufficient to draw attention from the touring pub lic "This plan .originated with the pub licity and conventions bureau of the Portland Chamber of Commerce, and at our solicitation a preliminary meeting was held at Seattle last month," said J. C. X ins worth, chairman of the bu reau. Cities May Follow Up. "Mr. Hardy attended for the Cham ber and suggested the meeting that Is to- be held September 6 at the Arotlo Club. "There can bo no two minds as to the soundness of the suggestion that it should be confined to the big scenlo attractions. It must not be encum bered by attempting to advertise every small resort and Bide trip. "The thing to do Is to get a combi nation that will finance the advertising of the big attractions In a Nation-wide advertising campaign. "Then each city and resort can fol low that up with its own advertising matter to. such an extent as it sees fit." The Chamber of Commerce has asked John B. Yeon, S. Benson, Samuel C. Lancaster, Dorsey B. Smith, Frank B. Riley and Mark Woodruff to represent It at the meeting. SOME CITY EMPLOYES PAID Other Departments Will Have to .Wait Until Tuesday.

"For almost six months I suffered from a severe case of skin trouble on my leg between the ankle and knee. It began uy swelling, with severe pains day and night, followed by constant itching. My leg then became inflamed, and later water blisters and pimply sores broke out on it. At this time my leg was at least one-third above Its normal size, and the continual Itching and burning sensation was something terrible. I applied many remedies but gained no relief until I commenced using Resinol Ointment and Resinol Soap, from which I obtained relief by the first application. After a continued use of Resinol Ointment and Resinol Soap the swelling was reduced, the itching and burning were entirely relieved and a complete cure was ef fected, having used only three Jars of Resinol Ointment and two cakes of Resinol Soap. My trouble sure was seri ous, and I consider the cure remarka ble." (Signed) Mrs. H. W. Neefus, 825 Pearson St., Greenbor'o, N. C. All druggists sell Resinol Ointment and Resinol Soap.

You're going to be fashionable, of course. "But," said a woman yesterday, "I don't want to look freaky." Cheer -up, yon won't have to if you stick to the Fall, 1916. modes. They're far more sensible than was ex pected. What is more. Dame Fashion expects that you don Winter garments at once, whether you swelter or not. They're in and must be worn. The shops are losing the brilliance of their Summer atmosphere and dark suits, hats, coats and dresses are replacing the sweaters and frocks of Summer. Fall of 1916 is rather more prim than faddish Spring styles seemed to indi cate. The skirts are slightly narrower and tho coats are a bit more tailored. All" the suit coats are belted and the waistlines vary from the small tight belt to straight box lines. The scare of long skirts that made you expect to have to put a ruffle on the bottom of your last year's suit is unfounded, except that this year you may wear your skirt long if you wish. But Just as many and more will be short. Skirt lengths vary from several inches above the shoe tops to the shoe tops and to the ankles. It seems that the tendency Is to come down gradu ally to longer skirts. The Fall suits that come In serges, gabardines, broadcloths and the like are not a great deal different from last Winter's, except that there is little fur trimming. Braid and buttons, how ever, are in vogue. Tho skirts ar for the greater part circular gored, very few pleated models being shown. Suits for mature women show quite a decided waistline with full skirted coats, and a medium wide circular gored skirC The misses' suits have straight coats, much lke the man's "pinch back" coats. There are a few pleated models in the misses' suits and the rest of the skirts are straight cir cular and gored. New dresses are here, too. "Old Mother Hubbard," of old-time rhymes, who lived a long time ago, has not been forgotten, for this Winter one of the most popular frocks will bo the Mother Hubbard model, witn an ad dition of a belt. Otherwise the dress hangs straight from a yoke. Both in front and back there are many pleats. Bis pockets, white collars and cuffs are attractive features of the Fall frock. Braid and buttons will be used to trim. By .Mrs F.A.v!alk5R- The Magic Scrap of Paper. rPHERE was once a young Prince X whose wicked undo had taken the kingdom from him when his father, tho old King, had died, and turned him out to wander In the world. Now, the Prince had been 'brought up to have everything in tho world his heart could wish, and so. for a time, it went very hard with him. For he did not know how to earn enough to buy a meal or a place to sleep. ... As he wandered one day, faint and hungry, through a great forest, he came to a tumble-down hut and, there being no other place to rest, he en tered and- lay down to sleep. When ho awoke he noticed a huge box in the corner, and. going up to it. he lifted the lid. Inside there was an other box. He lifted the lid to this and Inside of this found still another box. Box after box he found inside, ao he opened each one. and each one was smaller than the one before, until at last he camo to a box no bigger than the tip of his little finger. When he ppened this he was disappointed to find that It contained nothing but a scrap of dirty paper. He was Just about to throw it away when he no ticed there were words written upon it. Holding It up to the light ho read aloud: "Jack, my boy, come hither." Hardly had he pronounced the words when a voice said In his ear: "I am here to do thy bidding; com mand me." The Prince was much statled at hearing the voice when ho could see no one about, but he was a brave young fellow and eo he said: "Well, I am very hungry; fetch me a fine supper." As soon as the words left fils mouth there appeared In tho hut a table set with fine linen and china and filled with savory dishes. "Ha! This Is great luck," exclaimed the Prince, and, sitting down, ho ate his ffll. "Now," he said to himself when he had finished, "I will try what further the magic- writing will do." So again he read aloud the words: "Jack, my boy, come hither." Immediately the voice said in his ear: "I am here to do thy bidding; command me." "Give me a handsome palace, with many attendants," he said. The next moment tho hut vanished. and in its place there appeared a hand some palaoe - filled with' attendant.. The Prince found everything there that nis neart could wish, but he soon Wrew tired of it and wished for other things; great treasures and shins and chariots and such costly things. And tnese ne squandered in a reckless way. anyone might have anything they might ask of him. "For," he thought, "all I have to do is to read the paper. 'Jack, my boy, come hither and I can get twice as much more." So tho Prince got more reckless and careless each day until at last ho did not take the trouble oven to' guard the maglo paper. Then one day, when he desired something and went to get the paper and ask It. ho found it gone. Instantly everything he had, pal aces, pleasure grounds, retinues and stables, vanished, and ho found him self lying in the hut. As he lay there the King of the country, who was hunt ing in the forest, came by and spied him. "What vagabound is this?" he asked. "Hang him up to the nearest tree." His attendants seized him and were about to do his bidding when the Princess, his daughter, who was at tracted by the Prince's beauty, se cretly told the attendants not to put the rope around his neck, but about his arms. So they hung him up and left him. As he thus hung, bemoaning his fate and his folly In squandering his for tune, instead of saving it, he saw a little dwarf come by driving a cart heaped high with old shoes. He drove up close to where the Prince vas. "Ha. Ha!" he laughed. "I am the magic dwarf who did your bidding. See these worn shoes? They are the shoes I wore out running about for you. But you were eo careless that you allowed me to steal the paper, and so shiftless that you saved nothing, so this Is what you came to. Then the dwarf to make the Prince more unhappy, took the paper which he ,had and tickled the end of the t ; , i . . t-. ' , . it away and swiftly read: "Jack, my boy, come hither." Instantly tho dwarf prow humble. and, bowing, said. VI am hero to do thy Dioaing; command me. "Get me off this tree," cried the I'rince, and then restore my posses sions. And never again will I bo so foolish as to squander my wealth or leave my magic wand a moment away from me." Instantly the .palaces and all the other possessions of the Prince ap peared again. And now the Prince. having learned a lesson, was careful not to squander his wealth nor let the paper get out of his care. In time the neighboring King heard of his wealth and wisdom and came, bringing his daughter. The Prince, who now learned from, her attendants how she had. saved his life, fell In love with her &e much for her kindness as her beauty, and when they were married the King put him in control of hi kingdom.
