10 ; HE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, TUESDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 4,1 1913. Hy CRA M00R and LILLIAN YOUNJ0 tin Assuming that you have selected a bordered material for your new gown, and that you want to make it with a draped tunicv you will find the design f the accompanying sketch an attrac tive and practical model to follow inL. its creation, and not a difficult one. The material used Is heliotrope eaBh "roere, with an embroidered border dona in black and rose. The blouse and tunic are cut with the border running about their lower edges. The front of the blouse, la allowed to remain open from .neck te waist, and below the waist the opening continues into the skirt, running' off into a point. The spare is then filled in with white crepe de chine and at row of cut steel buttons and loopa trim the right- aide of the opening. A narrow turn back collar of white crepe de chin over a round shoulder collar of Carrickmacross lace makes a pretty finish at the neckj The sleeves are very new; they are long and are act into a dep armhole under a covered cording. ' At the wrist, arranged one above the other, are three small diamond-shaped slashes cut hori zontally across the outside of the sleeve. These may be finished with a piping of white crepe de chine.- The tunc skirt is not long, extending to a point halfway between hip and knee, where it la evenly gathered and pouched over the skirt proper. At the waist . there art some scant gathers venly distributed across the hips and In back. i . - .' , Another version of the same design may be favorably developed In tan ma terial, with the embroidered border done in golden brewn.Y;'. . .

The most economical of all m Absolutely Pure : Royal Baking Powder is made from pure grape cream of tartar, and is the embodiment of all the excellence "possible, to be attained in the high est class baking powder. . Royal Baking Powder is more eco nomical than any other leavening ; agent, because of the superlative quality and absolute wholesomeness of the food it makes. Mixtures made in imitation of genuine baling powders, but containing alua,, are, frequently distributed from door to door, or advertised and offered at a low price. Such are matures of unheaithful ingredients. Ia England, France Germany and some sections of the United States the sale of alum baking powder is prohibited by law. Alum is a corro sive mineral acid and physicians condemn baking powders containing it The label upon baking powders must mhow tho Ingredients, nzABTnriAsn: Even those regular natrona of the Orpheum who are prepared for almost any surprise that may be given them were apparently astonished last nlirht at the beauty and brilliancy of "Puss in Boois, ' the headline act In the new week's bill. "Puss In Boots" is thamost pretentious of the season's many tabloid i-uuuc operas oirered by Mr. Beck. The beauty and elaborate costumes of the chorus and the shinlnsr ninu nf h settings make the offering the more acceptable, and last night's audience WlS not alow to eXDress Its annrertatlrm of the big act.

Ignatius Cardosh plays the piano like an artist, and la encored for a little ragtime which he does not dtliVer. Closing, next to the pictures, is Ap dale's zoological circus, including four bears, eight dogs, three monkeys and an ant-eater. This act was heartily ap plauded by an audience in which there were practically none but grownup chil dren, and it speaks well for the 'training of Apdale's animals. Without whipping or undue coaxing, the beasts do the bid ding of their trainer. Current events In the movies close the interesting show.

Helen Strickland, who'-is playing the title role In Mother" at the Baker this week, is an anomaly. r She is ' an ' absolutely down-to-the- mlnate actress yet she ia a herfectlv old-fashioned wife. lea, I know it isn't ethical to talk about actors' wives and actresses' hus bands, but this is such an unusual and Interesting case I cannot desist. "Tou see." said Miss . Strickland. "when w wre married we made sol emn pact never to appear exctpt in the same company. When we finally at tained our fondest dream and found our selves cast in Charles Frohman's com pany in New York city, I was supreme ly happy; but my husband's part was not a good one, he became dissatisfied and we left the company, it Dearly broke my heart, for I had a splendid part, and it meant so much to be with Frohman, but " and here where her old-ashioned philosophy comes lit "The man Is lust naturally the head or the family, and It is natural that he should be. He is the breadwinner. The wife may earn a little of the Jam, out trie man is the real backbone, so I retired gracefully and I have never been sorry." , Now, isn't she a good subject for some or tne aggressive ones with missionary tendencies; V Jut Loves to Act. 'As for my love for acting, it was Just born in me. Sixty years ago my father, Edward Strickland, was one of tne well known light comedians. of Eng land. He was a manager and an actor and was a memberof the company which made the first really long run in Lon don, the company ran for 100 nights on uon Laesar de Baaan. Among my most treasured possessions Is a bit of the lace that formed the frill in his sleeves In that picturesque old play. In her youth my mother was also on the stage, but later she was Just a home- maker ana mother, for there were ela-ht children. Many years ago. while we children were small, my father and mother came to this country, locating in St. Louis, where my father opened in stock, but his career was short-lived. for he became interested in religion through an eminent Baptist clergyman, finally left the stage and in two years was preacning. He died only a few years ago, remaining in the ministry all the time. "I always loved to tell him how much better actor ..e was than preacher, and strange as t may seem he always seemed pleased. He never condemned the stage and always helped all of .us. for every one of us adopted the stage as a profession. He coached "me in many of my best parts, and was always my best critic. Hakes Sebnt at 16. "When I waa a very small girl, so small in fact that my principal house hold duty was standing on a stool and washing dishes, it came over me that I wanted to act. I confided in my fa ther, he talked to me very seriously, but the seed seemed to be planted, and so I learned pieces and bored all the family friends with them on every pos sible occasion, and at 18 I made mv debut. I began in small parts and fin. ally .dld regulation leads and then rfbout 10 years ago I began doing "mother" roles or : character parts, and they are so much more (interesting, that I expect i snau ao tnem as long as I stay on the stage. Sometimes they are unattract ive; in fact, they are often so, but there is so much. to study out and so much that Is new and individual to each char acter. I love the part I am doing this week. It is so human that it cannot fall to strike a responsive chord in the heart of all who eee it. Personally. Miss Strickland is a de lightful conversationalist, vivacious and wholesome, a person such as one loves to count among their friends. Already she Is counted as such by many Port land people. Judging from the many lovely flowers which lined her room yesterday. June will probably end the engagement or Miss .Strickland and Mr Conness here, and they will leave at once for their home n Staten Island. New York, where they will spend the summer. John A.
