AMONG NEW SILHOUETTES
THE BOX COAT IS FAVORED
EVERY wman seeKs distinction in
dress, nnd is especially pleased
when she discovers a suit that
may justly lay claim to it, for suits
must possess considerable stability In
style. They are worn oftener and
longer than other kinds of apparel,
and much is demanded of them. They
are required to vary accepted modes
by ingenious differences, without go
ing to any extremes; they must be
conservative in order to be refined,
'they must be spirited enough to escape
being commonplace, and in most cases
a youthful flavor is demanded of them.
The task, of choosing one that will ful
fill all these obligations promises to be
easier than it has been, for fall suits
are shown in greater variety than for
some seasons.
The launching of several distinctly
different silhouettes and their accept
ance gives one a choice in coats that
vary much in outline. In length they
range all the way from finger tip to
those that reach almost to the bottom
of the skirt. One may, choose a model
with a slim, close-fitting body and
long waist, having a ruffled skirt set
on. Or the choice may fall upon the
Russian blouse or the box coat and
PAPER AIDS THE HOSTESS
IN MANY CHARMING WAYS
I” PHOTOGRAPHS could only por- i
tray color and light one might gath- j
er something of the beauty of the
many household decorations that are
made of paper. There is an amazing
number of things with which the coun
tenance of a room may be so changed
that it is transformed. And there are
many small permanent furnishings
that are made at home of paper, pos
sessing as much beauty and more In
dividual charm than those same things
as found in the shops. Lamps and
lampshades, candle-holders and candle
shades, wall panels, portieres, vases,
baskets and small lanterns or electric
light shades are among them. To
these the home-maker and the hostess
add many pretty ornaments, as occa
sion calls for them, that have their
brief and beautiful day and are re
placed by something new.
In the picture above decorations
for a table are shown, together with
a shade for electric lights. The rose
is the inspiration for this pretty
scheme, and crape paper in the Amer
ican beauty and lighter shades serve
to carry it out.
As a .centerpiece for the table, a
wire standard fastened to a card
board base supports a cardboard box.
This is round and has a cover. The
lsase, standard, box and lid are cov
ered with green paper, the lid only on
the inner side. Big rose petals are |
pasted about the inside edge of the i
skirts may matcn tne coats or they
may not. Sometimes they are in checks
or stripes, while the coat Is plain.
There is enough variety in style to in
sure becomingness, but nearly all of
them have appropriated the flar
ing sleeve and look to fur and em
broidery or fur and braid for their
embellishment.
Two very handsome suits in the box
coat style are shown here, and they
reveal that even the straight coat may
be greatly varied. The suit at the
right is a youthful model with the coat
considerably shortened at the back and
generously embroidered. It has a band
of fur at the bottom and about the
sleeves and is provided with one of
the smart, high collars of fur which
add the season’s own touch to every
model.
The suit at the left is a dignified af
fair, also employing fur and em
broidery, and also cut on straight
lines. It opens at the front in a
curved line that is odd, and fastens
with round buttons. There are many
points of difference between it and its
companion and it is these small dif
ferences that give character to suits
and make the mode interesting.
| box and the upper side of the lid. Al
; together they form a huge, full-blown
rose, as pictured. Small half-open
buds ami asparagus ferns are twined
about the standard. Single roses on
wire standard make pretty holders for
almonds .and candies, and place cards
are still smaller rosebuds with rose
leaves and the name on white card
board fastened to the standard.
There are many little surprises In
favors that may he concealed In the
centerpiece. The globe for lamp or
electric light has a wire frame for
Its foundation, covered first with tis
sue paper or crepe paper. Little rose
petals are pasted all over this, and
streamers of paper having petals at
their ends fall from the top of it.
These are only suggestions for a rose
luncheon —there are many ways for
making the light shades and using the
rose petals.

disconcert us from without or unsettle
us from within.—Dickens.

Stories of
Great Scouts
By ELMO SCOTT WATSON
(©. 1921, Western Newspaper Union.)
BELZY DODD, THE “MAN WHO
SCALPS HIMSELF”
Some historians have asserted that
Belzy Dodd was a myth, hut some of
the old scouts who knew him well
do not agree with them. “Ask some
of the Injuns who raided along the
old Santa Fe trail about ‘The Man
Who Scalps Himself,’” they said, with
a laugh. Like California Joe, Dodd
was n practical joker, and one of his
jokes once defeated a band of Indians
and saved a wagon train from the
horrors of a massacre.
Dodd was guiding a caravan of
traders to Santa Fe At night they
parked their wagons in a circle with
the mules corralled Inside to prevent
their being stampeded if Indians at
tacked. Outside the circle guards
were posted to give warning at the
first appearance of a savage.
Just before daylight one morning
the traders were awakened by a shot,
nnd rushed out to find a guard lying
wounded an the ground. In the next
instant n hand of Pawnees charged
down on the train. A fierce battle fol
lowed. The Indians who attacked
the train were re-enforced by a larger
hand and in a short time It became
evident that the train, whose defend
ers were hopelessly outnumbered, was
doomed. Suddenly Dodd, whose rifle
had knocked down more than one
painted warrior, threw aside his weap
on and dashed outside the circle of
wagons.
Howling fiendishly, he rushed into
the midst of the charging Pawnees.
Before the Indians could recover from
their surprise at his bold act, Dodd
whipped out liis long knife, ran it
around the edge of his hair, and with
a wild yell, tore off his shock of black
hair and waved It about Ids head.
It was too much for the Pawnees.
With a howl of terror, they broke and
ran. Dodd was a swift runner —lie
could hold his own in running beside
a galloping buffalo, it Is said —and he
pursued the frightened redskins,
shrieking and waving his “scalp” un
til they left him fur behind. A wig
had saved a wagon train!
After that time any wagon train
which Belzy Dodd guided over the
Santa Fe trail was safe If the Indians
saw Dod'J In the lead. They had no
use for a man who eould scalp him
self and still live.
What became of Befzy Dodd and
where he died is as much a mystery
as his birth and early life. He played
his little role- as a comedian in the
drama of the West, and then, like many
greater actors, he passed on and wus
soon forgotten.
OLD BILL HAMILTON’S STRANGE
DUEL WITH AN ENGLISHMAN
One of the greatest of the old-time
mountain men ip western history was
William T. Hamilton, or “Old Bill”
Hamilton as he was known in the
early days in Montana. His strange
duel with an Englishman Is historic.
Old Bill had offended the Englishman
In some way, and the Britisher chal
lenged hirn to a duel.
“All right; I’ll fight you!” said Old
Bill. “But I get to name the weap
ons and rules for the fight.”
The Englishman agreed, nnd this
is what Hamilton decided: Each man
was to strip to the skin, go out to the
Yellowstone river, and with an ax
chop a hole In the ice. Then the two
men were to get down In these holes
and sit In the water up to their shoul
ders. The first to leave this Icy hath
wan the loser.
The contest began. The Englishman
stood It for a few minutes. Then
with a wild yell he leaped out and,
with his teeth chattering, ran for u
house and a stove as fast as lie could.
Old Bill followed close on his heels,
calling the shivering Britisher every
name in his vocubulary. (fid Bill was
declured winner of the duel. It had
lieen no hardship for Hamilton. He
had lived among the Indians and was
as hardy as they. He Is said to have
been the only white man of his time
who could strip naked, take a how and
arrows and shoot buffalo from horse
back as well as the savages, with
whom he lived.
Hamilton finally settled down at
Fort Benton, Mont., where lie opened
n log cabin hotel and a butcher shop.
The governor of Montana appointed
him sheriff of Choteau county, and he
was also a deputy United States mar
shal. In 1865 the governor asked him
to visit the Crow and Gros Ventre In
dians and persuade them to come In
to Fort Benton to make peace.
"But how can I go?” said Old Bill.
“I have to look after my eatln’ house
and butcher shop and ’tend to my duties
as sheriff and marshal. I’ve got two
prisoners on hand now and no jail to
keep ’em In.”
Finally he consented and, accom
panied only by an Indian hoy, he made
the dangerous trip. After a series of
exciting adventures lie returned in
safety, bringing the two tribes with
him to the council.
Old Bill died In 1908 at the age of
eighty-six. He was always proud of
the fact that he had been a scout for
the United States army, and to the
day of his death he kept the Stars
and Stripes floating over the little log
cabin where he lived.
