Rivals for a Rich Buxom Widow.
(By Mrs. Belinda Sourgrass.)___
I hear that Calvin Worrall has a
matrimonial bee buzzing in Lis bon
net. I hat is not exactly the right
wav to put it. A buxom, rich widow
is stuck on him and Calvin is ready
to throw hinisilf.it the foot of cupid.
\\ e hear however, that the editor of
the Gossip is a rival of Mr. Worrall,
ior he requires a tub widow to fi
nance the Gossip. He ll.as already
started for Texas to be first on the
job. I tie chances are the editor of
the Gossip will win the rich widow
and bring her back to Tillamook as
a trophy of matrimonial warfare

Fashionable Gowns.
(By Mrs. Belinda Sourgrass.)
As I have been appointed critic on
the staff of the Gossip, it was natur
al that I should have becoming duds
to fill that important position with
due dignity, so I hiked off to Hal-
tom's January Clearance Sale. \\ ell
I bought several of the lovliest
gowns in the store, and when I
showed them to my neighbor, Mrs.
Smith, she said as soon as I wrapped
myself up in them they would have
to L ive a government stamp on them
to prove that they were the latest
fashioned gowns, and tint 1 had bet
ter look out for the war tax collector.
If any of those fellows cante around
when I’m lucked away between the
sheets in my new gowns to ascer
tain whether the government stamps
are attached there is going to be
trouble.

The Waist Line.
If your the woman whose form in
clines to plumpness—not to say em
bonpoint—here's a style tip and a
warning for you.
Woman’s waist line is to be seen
again next spring—well defined and
with a pointed front.
Milady won’t be able to cheat fash
ion with the moveable waist line that
may be anywhere
between her
shoulders and her knees when jihe
purchi -.es her Easter frocks, The
wcil-dcfined waist line has come and
come to stay, says the Fashion Art
l eague. The women who is fashion
able but fleshy must diet—or lace—
accordingly.
“Among the other events schedul
ed for 1915,” said the league’s bulle
tin, issued yesterday, “is the reap
pearance of the waist line. It is com
ing back to the place where it be
longs. Recently this very erratic
line has gone up and down the figure
from bust to hips and back again,
and has seldom been seen in its
normal location.
“The well-defined waist line with
tendency to pointed front will be the
accepted fashion for day street cos
tumes this spring, the line slightly-
nipped at center, front and sides
This is an influence of military dress
that can hardly be escaped, even
with dislike of masculinity for war
like uniforms for women.”
