THE OREUOW oui.r JOURNAL, PORTLAND, SATURDAY : EVENING. JANUARY : 17, '1914. There Is ouch a profusion of rooJei this seasetr that IV Is difficult to fix upon one' that i more desirable than another, and individually is' the only ! saf guide In the matter. Bunched draperies I are not always so becoming as straight ones, long sleeves as ef fective as short or three-quarter length ones, nor one sort of fold or -panel as productive of good lines n .Oe figure as another, but with the variety that fashion offers now satis faction in gowning is becoming mere ly a matter exercising a proper dis cretion in making a selection, and that selection I to be expressive of person ality and! individuality. The sketch here shown offers an at tractive, suggestion in a .conservative . costume of old blue velveteen. -It in not elaborately fashioned, but keeps rather to simple lines, making it, in a way, more pleasing by contrast to the complicated designs of the mo ment.: There are long mousouetaire sleev.r set "into lowered arroholes artd givm a wrist frill of chiffon ruffling. Thj blouse fastens at the left side and has a diagonal line running from Cra neck, over the bust to the fastening. .This makes a V-neok and more of tho chiffon ruffling set In along the edgs gives' a goft finish. A broad black satin girdle ".s wrapped about the high wutet Una and tied at the left ids under tho arm in several long loops. y In the skirt the fastening Is roi i limed In a direct line with that of I'm I'louw, with a close row of belf-cov-cred ball buttons and soutache loops. The tunic extends pretty c1 belJ1 the hips. aiKl is gathered around its lower edge aad pouched over the lower skirt. In bark, a free panel about i foot wide is hung from the waist line and extends to. tin; knc-s. where tlic end In finished with a baud of OTK'HiHiiin fur. The lower purt of lir -klrt is quite plain and attiohed to a fitted lining under the tunic. A muff to match has u full center of blue velveteen -bordered with opon siim and ?. hiiiuU opossum scarf Is worn with it. The Massachusetts state branch of Ihe international tTnlon of Stationary Kngineer voted at its recent annual convention in favor of the establish ment of a state-wide uniform wage scale for engineers.

The very word "Persian" is a syno nym for opulence, splendor, gorgeous ness. and "oriental'1 means beauty and wonder and the magic of the "Arabian NlffhtS." so jt IsVt in the, least stranpre tliat from the Alladin'x . cave of the mystical east' we gather tho treasure and spoil of the "old masters," for there ttwo "old musters" in wool n well ty on canvass, hm nine of the rare old orients l rugs proVe though the artist's signatures , are missing or meaningless. In a local storehouse of oriental art I waa given a rare, treat yesterday in being shown two Of- the marvelous masterpieces of this . mysterious art.; One of these was e superb specimen :r the Royal Senna, a rug always highly prized by orientals and occi Vrptala, for their fabric gives to the' touch the sense of frosted velvet. The center is a floriated medallion of odd and sttange designs full of hidden meanings and standing out like a great, gleaming, barbaric jewel on a back ground of solid blue-black, the whole surrounded with a deep border of i-seometrlcal designs wrought in vary ing shades of old rose as beautiful as tthe rose windows of a cathedral. This ; wonderful object of art Is woven on 'silk.warp and has no less than 1500 .knots to the square inch: truly the ?place for such an art object is in a ; museum. ' Few artists with paint and brush Vould achieve such -results as re dis played by the artist, in wool wllo cre mated the marvelous Royal Kerinan fwhich I was shown.

Having broken Into tln realm of extravagance by the purchase of 'tur key you may bo inclined to let your self down easy by buying a whole ham and if so there is no better way of cooking th.j treasured morsel than as follows: Soak the ham over night. Place it in the large receptacle of the tireless cooker, with enough warm water to cover it well and into this pour about a cupful of pure cider vine gar, season with few whole cloves. ;i nip of tea, a bayleaf. a lump of brown sugar, a little, pargtev and thyme. Place on top of the range until the ham is thoroughly heated through und when this is accomplished and the tireless, radiators are hot, shut in the tireless and allow It to remain for at least six or seven hours. When taken from the liquor, the outer skin should be sifted over with flour and sugar, few cloves should be stuck in the outer rind and the delicious viand should be placed In a hot oven for a few moment to brown. Served either hot or cold this is a dish for an epi cure. ' Made by a Maid.

As I was the prettiest girl in the neighborhood then, they vied with each other to 'show me a good time.' And I had it, believe me! For One whole year I was it. Then I had a rival. She was prettier than I, dressed better than I could afford to, and 'had a way -with her" when it came to capturing masculine attention. "My dear, it wasn't three weeks after the girl's arrival before all three of my good spenders were laying siege to her fickle heart. They spent money on her even more lavishly than they did on me. To tell the truth, I don't see where they got the means, for none of the boys had any money of their own outside of small salaries, and they must have worked their dads or somebody for the price of theatre tickets and carriages. "About this time Charlie began making himself conspicuous in our front parlor. "I hadn't thought much about Charlie, as a beau. He had never made any particular bids for my favor. He had a good position, but he wasn't a spender. He never brought me a decent box of candy in his life. He'd drop dead If you mentioned violets to him" when they're rated five cents apiece in the winter time. He never Invited me to the theatre unless somebody gave him a pass. He never thought of asking me to a dinner downtown in one of those swell places where you get a thimbleful of something with a fancy name in exchange for a chec naming a fancy price. "But there was something awfully nice and awfully persistent about Charlie, and I actually got engaged to him before I knew it. He didn't even give me an engagement ring. My folks thought It was awful. They prophe sied all kinds of dire things. I was on the point of breaking the engagement once a week. And yet nomehow, we were married. "Well, say! You neyer can tell how a man will turn out Two of those first good spenders who were my beaux are married now. They're still spending, but mostly on themselves, and their wives have to keep the shades down and pretend they're not at home when the bill collectors call. The third good spender is the cavalier of the prettiest and most stylish girl in his set, whoever 'she happens to be. "As for me, I'm getting fat from sheer contentedness. Charlie Is what may be called a "good provider.' He's got m.ony in the bank, and when I buy I have, instructions to get the best, whatever it Is. We don't save at home to put on lugs outside. He is supporting my mother as well as 'his own, and I've never yet heard a yelp from him that he's doing too much. He's the sweetest-tempered, dearest, generousest " "Oh, well," interrupted Miss Eighteen, with a bored air. "If I wera old like you I wouldn't mind not having Wi0f' instead of risking my neck sliding down a quilt rope.

"A man who'll spend money on a girl really loves her," she explained, "and a man who can be stingy be fore marriage will be unbearable after mar riage." "Gracious, but we're worldly wise!" ex claimed Mrs. Twenty-five. "I used to think much the same way," she added, with a little laugh, "but I've learned differently in the last few years. "I had quite a few beaux!, too, when I was your age. And I scorned to go with anybody who -wasn't a good spender. I reckoned just as you do that the fellow who really- cared for me would be willing to bankrupt himself any good times maybe." mm I other solid substance even that booby jauur ueaa ana mat s saying a whole lot" tn 1 .

That the Prohibition party will be an active competitor and political rival of the older parties at the fortn comiug state elections was made per fectly clear at the annual banquet Of the state Prohibitionists held at the Y. M. C. A. last night. While a large share of the evening was devoted to exultation and rejoic ing at the many "dry" victories throughout the state during the past year, most of the eyes, and voices, too, were turned toward the future. At the state election next Novem ber the Prohibition party will put forth Its own slate for all adminis trative, offices and will have county tickets as well. Also it is possible that it will run candidates for con gress. The date of the nominating convention was fixed by the state committee yesterday for May 5 and 6, at which time about 1000 delegates will be Jn attendance to choose their candidates. Field workers of the party have secured pledges of support from vot ers throughout the state, and it is claimed that they hav already se cured 20,000 names. T. & McDaniels acted as toastmaster at last night's banquet. Among the speakers were F. W. Emerson of Al bany, member of tie Prohibition na tional executive commltteee; th Rev. Clarence True Wilson, sec retary of the Church Temper ance society:. Mrs. Ward Swop, state secretary of the W. C. T. U., Kr n st 12. Taylor, secretary of the Pro hibition state committee, and others. HINTS FOR GIRLS By Jessie Roberta. . To be known as a quick worker is no doubt a good thing for a girl. Deft hands, swift movements, absence of waste action the.se will help a girl to get on to a certain extent. If shi is doing piecework they will fatten her pay envelope for her. But quick thinking will do more for her in the long run. "Do you see that young lady at the disk there?" asked the man who was showing me over the big packing es tablishment I had come to nee. "Wei;, she only catue to us two months ago as a typewriter, with a business school diploma and no previous experi ence. Now slio is at the head of lir department, and in line for further promotion. "How is it?" he went on.'ln answer, to my question. "It's beeaiif she can think, Hiid think quickly. She hadn't been here two days before she came lo the boss with a suggestion for sn improvement in the form letter w; were using. It shortened the letter, saving tlrroj that way. anil It had more of a punch. Next week she had nomc thing more, up her sleeve. It was a plan for altering the distribution of work among the girls, and it saved more time, and made things simpler. And whenever there was a chance Hhe wasthera with both feet. She can't mane tne Keys riy liKe some of the girls but when it comes to brain work she's as quick as greased light ning." If you study the people with whom you are working you will he sur prised to see how few of them really think. And yet thinking is the one best paying possession you can cul tivate. Almost any one can learn to be a fast worker, particularly If she sth'KS to the same Job year after year. Manual dexterity is largelya matter of persistence; there must also be some natural aptitude, but this ap'ti tude is not uncommon. It's mighty good as far as it goes, but It doesn't go far enough unless it's accompanied by quick thinking. Don't be afraid to exercise your mind.

ESTABLISHED I78Q "pSf mm HeeiltK ejiJBeaaitvi Helps Transform Thinness Into Slender. ! news." By Abigail j Moore. The power, of dress to transform an uninteresting or homejly woman Is phe nomenal, though not j generally under stood. Kmily Stevens, whose graceful slenderness and charming stag gowni are the subject of ,mtich comment bas this to say by way of suggestion. "One must know hor to werfr clothes, as well as what clothes to wear. You may not say, 'Stand straight and throw your shoulders back If you wish your gowns to look, well,' because the ram rod figure no longer IS In fashion. Kach woman must learn jfrom her mirror how far she can afford to let out lijr waist or draw in her hips. "Certain fabrics add to or detraM from height; and in the manipulation of color lies a great secret of softening hard features and filling In hollows. An unskilled dressmaker will Insist up on frills and bouffant effects for a thin woman, and deck her In figured stuffs and complicated draperies to 'give her breadtli." Yet every woman weighing more than 110 pounds is try ing to reduce. "A thin neck Is not necessarily un sightly but for a scrawny neck there is no excuse. Mausage and cold water will work wonders. , in the meantime a bit of tulle or a flower rightly placed will help. "The right idea Is to make an asset out of a liability by transforming thin ness into slenderness. The former suggests prominent bones and scrawni ness, the latter a framework delicately covered. Frills can be better affeend by a person of avoirdupois who as ni long lines to conceal by them. The slender woman cannot afford to have her slenderness interrupted by complex effect. Simplicity Is her cue sinuous, clinging skirts and simple blouses." Miss Stevens finds greatest success in keeping to one-color effects, with the character note if ono be neces sary most carefully placed. She sug gests also that whatever the desijpi of the dress one long line started above the waist should be introduced, as this is peculiarly effective. For ex ample, a stole sash hung from a point two or three Inches , above the waist line, or a high-walsted skirt Little Stories Chatterer Hits On a Plan at Lat. By Thornton W. Burgess. (Copyright, 1314. bysl. G. Lloyd.) Each time that Chatterer the Red Squirrel thought himself smarter than Sammy Jay he found that he wasn't ss smart as he thought! he was, and this always made him feel mortified. He just couldn't admit i even Jo himself that Sammy was the smartest and yet here he was every day bringing corn for Sammy from Farmer Brown's corn crib, whenever Sammy told h)m to. and running the risk of being seen by Farmer Brown's boy, all because he hadn't been able to think of some wav to outwit Sammy. Once, after he had siu li a narrow escape from old Rough leg the Hawk, he had tried going down to his storehouse on the edge of the cornrield, but he had found Roughleg on watch and had turned back.

V. . 1 iT-itri jic&'j iiinun jiwa imnu iiihi nam- mv knew nomethlntr nboirt how old Roughleg happened to have .found out about that storehouse, and so been on watch. j Now, all this tlmt Sammy Jay was having a great deal Of fun out of Chat terer's trouble. Eanh time that Chat terer thought of a plan to outwit Sammy hn would find that Sammy had already thought of It, and a way to make the plan quite useless. You see, Sammy used to spend a great deal of his time when he was alone in the CJreen Forest pretending that lie was in the same fix as Chatterer, and then trying to think of some way out of it. So it was that Chatterer never could think of a plan that Sammy hadn't already thought of, And yet there was a way to cheat Sammy out of his fun, though not out of his corn, and it really was the fun of seeing Chatterer so worried that Sammy cared moat about. Sammy had thought of it al most at once, and it seemed to him that Chatterer was very, very stupid not to think of It, too. "He will think of it some day, and I don't see any way to upset such a sim ple plan," said Sammy to himself, and then fell to studying some new way to torment Chatterer. And at last Chatterer did think of It. It was such a simple plan! Probably that was why he hadn't thought of it before. All he had to do was to go over to Farmer Brown's corn crib at break of day. before any one in Farmer Brown's house was awake. Just as be had been doing, only make two or lake 25 or 30 feet deep, were returning to their homes today. The damage done by the high water was estimated at j from 250,000 to $350,000. This was exclusive of the loss sustained by the pulp and paper company through the loss of its dam and plant on the Stony river, where the dam was situated. No lives were lost so far as known. President Luke of the pulp and paper company was trying today to learn the identity of a man, who, after telephoning to several towns the news that the dam' was going out mounted and rode down the valley, warning iso The g( enuine Baker Cocoa ind Baker's have this trade-ma 4 . pacKag&.
