when you giilhor by twos mid threes
In Die firelight, und talk so freely; oh,
what a power they ure Cor good, if
used iirlghl ; what u power for harm,
if wasted or misused! No one wants
.von to force the conversation Into an
edifying channel ; hut one knows 1ow

often there Is a choice between high

Proud of Her "Fevvers."
l.llllo Mamie very much admired her
Vapa's chickens. llisorvhig for H
first time llH. liillo hairs mi her a runt,
Mie ran very excitedly to her mamma,
saying: "See! Mamma, see! 1 dot soma
fevvcrs, I dot some fevvers."
"Yes sir, up thar In the Yellowstone
I seed peetrlfled trees a-ifrowln' with
peetrifled birds on 'em a-slngln' peet
rified songs," once declared old Jim
Brldger, scout, trapper and fur trad
er. He was one of the first white
men to visit the natural wonders of
what Is now Yellowstone National
park.
After his return he gave an account
of what he had seen to an eastern
magazine writer. Two of the writer's
article's were published. Then the edi
tor refused to print any more, saying
that his readers would not believe
such Huron .Munchausen tales. Ev
erything the "old trapper had told the
magazine writer was true, and when
liridgor found that his stories were no
longer believed, he began telling oth
er yarns which did not always stick
so closely to the. truth,
One day in the Yellowstone lie said
he came upon an elk grazing within
ea.-y gun range, lie fired, but the elk
neither (Implied nor seemed alarmed
by the shot. The scout reloaded and
fired again wilh the same result.
Then he became angry. Picking up a
rock, he threw it at the animal. The
rock si ruck some invisible barrier and
dropped to the ground. When Iiridg
er reached I hi; place where It lay he
found that lie had been shooting at
the elk through a mountain of pefectly
transparent crystal !
liridgor was the first white man to
see the (treat Salt Lake In Utah. This
was In 1821, and he told some won
derful stories about the lake. One of
them was about the great snowfall in
the winter of ISJtO, which covered the
whole Salt Lake valley to n depth of
70 feet. All of the buffalo perished.
"When spring came, all I had to do
was to tumble 'em into the lake an'
I had enough pickled buffalo for my
self nn' the whole Ute nation for
years," Itridger declared.
Hrldger was known as "Old Gabe,"
or "The Old Man of the Mountains"
by bis fellow trappers, and the- Crow
Indians called him "Casapy the
lilnnket Chief."
"C.ineral, whar you (Jon't see no In
juns, thar they're sartin to be thick
est," he once told Gen. Henry Carring-
ton, and the general found It good ad
vice. When the engineers for the
Union Paclllc railroad were uncertain
about the easiest route through the
Kooky lnmmlnins, they sent for Old
liei. lie took a niece of old brown
paper am! with n piece of charcoal
marked the rnule which they wen; to
follow. I.aler they found that he had
not made a single mistake in mapping
the ronie. I'.rldger died 111 1SS1, and
Is buried In Kansas City.

Washington. Expenditures totalllna
$19,361,057 for carrying through Its
program of relief and services In the
United States and overseas are out
lined in the budget of the American
Red Cross for the current fiscal year.
This total is more than $5,000,000 low
er than the expenditure during the
last fiscal year, when the disburse
ments reached $21,4t)2,741, It Is an
nounced at National Headquarters In
a statement calling attention to the
necessity of continued support of the
organization by response to the An
nual ltoU Call, November 11 to 24,
if the vital work of the society is to
be effectively carried on.
Outstanding among the items of the
domestic budget is the appropriation
of $3,000,250 for work in behalf of
the disabled ex-service man and his
family. This appropriation represents
the amount alloted to this work from
National Headquarters only and does
not take into consideration the mil
lions being spent in chapters for re
lief of the World War veteran. It
Is In the chapter that the greater
amount is spent In meeting this obli
gation of the Ked Cross, the announce
ment continues, as manifested by fig
ures of the fiscal year 1920-1921 when
the total was approximately $9,000.-
000, of which $2,692,094 represented
the disbursement of National Head
quarters while the remainder was the
chapters' contribution to this field ot
lied Cross service.
Vast Work for Disabled
Chief among the sub-divisions ot
the appropriation for work with vet
erans is that which concerns Itself
with assistance to disabled men and
women In government hospitals. This
item of $1,700,000, an increase of more
than $500,000 over the appropriation
for the same work in last year's bud
get, VilI provide those personal Rervr
ices for the disabled and their families
which are indispensable to supplement
those provided by the governnnt.
The director of the Veterans' l'.ureau
has recently expressed ids desire that
the Ked Cross should continue and
extend these "humanizing services."
Other items of the ii,-!iroprlution for
veterans' relief are proportionately in
creased. An additional appropriation
of $4(!!),0IK1 has been made for Red
Cross work in connection with regif
lar Army and Navy hospitals and
with the regular Army and Navy.
For disaster relief, the lied Cross
lias set aside for Jhe current twelve1
months an appropriation of $54,'!,i)7G,
virtually doubling the appropriation
for the same purpose for the fiscal
year 1020-11)21.
More than $2,000,000 Is provided for
service and assistance to the 3,tmo
Red Cross chapters by the national
organization.

The styles of today are on their
way to make room for the styles of
tomorrow. At this season of the year
we are In the painful process of transi
tion, but the wise ones will watch the
signs of the times to see how some
fashions will survive and others be
cast into the discard. Just now, says
a Xew York fashion writer, we iiear
some hardened skeptics saying that
women will never depart from adopt
ing extreme fashions to make them
selves conspicuous, or some such an
tique theory as that. Hut there are
others who assert that the short
haired girl has come to stay, because
that way of dressing her locks is more
practical .and that the corsetless fig
ure, with its stralghtline clothes, is
with us for life, for the same reason.
Who knows? If we are women, we
must needs conform to the changes
in fashion, whatever our inclination.
And most of us incline to conform.
We get that peculiar feminine thrill
out of a new frock which no other
proceeding on earth can bring with it.
Buying for Winter.
Western buyers are putting in
their first stocks for winter. They
are cleaving to short skirts and to
straight lines. But this is always the
way of this period of the season. They
follow closely In the trail of present
fashions, as any wild flights of fancy
might lead them Into untold paths of
loss and unappreciation. The duty,
and, yes, the desire, of the New York
public Is to go on beyond, creating new
types of fashion which, in their turn,
will be followed just as assiduously
by others next season.
The success of the spring coat and
the adaptability of the one-piece dress
have joined hands, the two making
their autumn bow as a coat dress. Of
'course, we have had coat dresses be
fore this, but the predictions are that
Ihey will be more brilliant achieve
ments tills coming season. News from
Paris indicates that we are following
the lead right here, for many of the
wholesalers have reported that sales
In this particular direction are going
strong.
A new slogan might be: "It is the
belt that makes the gown," for in
many instances all else Is plain, and
tlie winding around the waist becomes
the center of the design of the whole
frock. All sorts of fancy ribbons and
brocades are brought into play for this
form of decoration. Then there are
cords galore, and strings of beads and
