^?ARRlSO^• FISHER
Harrisor. Fisher, the New York artist
known the v^'orb':; over, and his pic
ture of Miss Laurine Rasmussen, his
latest creation. iVlr. Fisher recently
left San Francisco on his return
home. His aim in going to that city
was to search for a new type of
beauty for his portrayal. Miss Ras.m-
ussen, who is a San Francisco girl,
has been picked by the artist as the
typical American beauty of the Gol
den West.,
Mr. Fisher left San Francisco with
Miss Rasmussen’s promise to go to
New York early in the new year and
pose for the picturec of the new
“Fischer girl.”
Miss Rasmussen, Is a daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Charles Rasmussen and is
an artist of more than local note. It
was perhaps this latter fact that
aroused her sympathy with Mr. Fish
er in his hunt for a heroine for his
paintings. She is five feet, eight in
ches tall and twenty-five years of
age.

WOMAN’S INFLUENCE. *>
Prof. T.cslie J. Tompkins, of tb^^
Nev.' York University, writin;j of wo
man’s influence says:
“The trouble is that women do not
renlize the powerful influence the:'
weild without the ballot! In an indi
rect way every woman whose hus
band loves her controls a vote, wi’
out the disagreeable and often de
grading experience of going to tho
polls. He may laugh at her views,
and say she talks in ignorance of
the issue, but he caats a vole th:;'
means in effect that his wife is do
ing the voting.
“Isn’t this indirect influence worth
more to ycu women than the very
uncertain power that v;ould come
with the ballot you are Ill-prepared
for! I rhean ill-prepared in the sen'-O
that the vast majority of wonifT^
have but little conception of th
functions of government.”
Quite a number of coat and skirt
street frocks are of good quality vel-
’ eteen—some bordered w'ith a nar
rov^ band of fur others trimmed with
silk braids, while others .are devoid
of trimming of any kind.
The use of dark fur edging la
very effective.
