summer abroad in company with hel
mother and sister, and upon her return
brought with her several trunks filled
with handsome gowns for the coming
season. Let me tell you about a few
of these. There is rich gace silk of
a,dclicatc pink with draperies of NOUS
seine dc sole. a broad band of white
satin ribbon forms n belt with q big
bow ut the back, and the round-cut
neck Is trimmed with deep ruffie of
chiffon, which forms a sleeve effect.
and the left shoulder is ornamented
with Il bunch of violets; another bunch
OF the same beautiful flowers being
fastened on the corsage Another
dress is rich silk of yellow and white,
striped with mousseline -de-soie drap-
cries. This is ornamented with blue
velvet rosettcs on breast and shoulder,
and large one is fastened on the belt
at the back of the waist, the bell
shaped skirt forming dclni-train.
Another "Doncet" gown is carriape
toilet of dark blue serge, with full hirh
sleeves of green and blue plaid silk,
which also forms the vest The cut is
something on the polonaise style, with
long ends in front over n plain skirt Of
oAS Sdilc iIdLcTlUl, ana the costume IS
completed by a wide brimmed felt hat,
with feathers and big rosettes of rib
bon in front. Another tasteful toilet
which Miss Minnie Wanamalser has is
a light green silk, with slender
stripes of white trimmed with lace.
The bodice is high and it is fast
ened around the neck with bow; at
the back wide belt of the ribbon is
tied in big bow-knot, and the sleeves,
like those of the rest of these English
gowns brought over by Miss Wanna
maker, are long and full and high
putfed on the shoulders Mrs. Wanna
maker seldom if ever deviates from her
acknowledged preference for lavender
and grays, most of her gowns being
each season selected from the varying
tints. She wore on New Years day u
heliotrope silk with zigzag stripes of
white deliberately trimmed with ecru
lace, which extended down both sides of
the back to the end of the short train.

wearing ANA Some New Tnncies
of Mrs. Senator Barbour.
lcoryI,rGur, 1921

The cabinet ladies have MANY now
toilets this season. Mrs. Morton's
gowns arc always noted and she prob,
hoiy spends as much on her clothes as
any woman in Washington. A great
variety of magnificent gowns were sent
TO her from London and Paris last fall,
and one of the most simple and elegant
'oi these is princess gown of old-rose
brocade, the figures upon which form
graceful curves extending downward to
a convergent point. The bodice is cut
high and filled in at the neck with a
vest-shaped piece, finished with u Sim
pie round collar fastened ut the back.
This dress has long, closc-fitting sleeves,
slightly puffcd at the shoulders, and
the whole is trimmed with deep, crys-
tal-beadcd fringe of the same delicate
old-rose pink.
Miss Rusl, the daughter of the secre-
tary Of agriculture, always takes an
active part in assisting her mother upon
the occasion of public receptions, and
her dresses are noted. She has this
year number of beautiful toilets
from Worth's. and among her even
ing dresses Il tasteful gown is of white
chiffon with tiny sprays of lavender
flowers, the neck cut low and trimmed
with deep rutlle of embroidery and
orhamentcd with lavender bows of vel
vet ribbon. 1t has demi-traiu. and
she has to go with it on such occasions

cloak of mauvc-colorcd silk with full
vest of white chiffon. One of her. car
riagc gowns is of tan-colored satin,
trimmed with dark blue velvet, the
edge OF the plain skirt being cut in
points and bordcrcd with sable. The
full, high sleeves of the tight-ftting-coat
are combination of velvet and brocadc,
and high velvet collar and a stylish
jet hat and feathers complete the cos
tune. Miss Rusl has also pretty
gown of dancing length of canary color
and white striped satin. A deep frill of
chiffon edges the round neck and forms
the short sleeves. Another gown is of
rose-pink embroidered chiffon over
which is worn a Louis Nv coat of pink
brocade with Il rufIlc OF chiffon, form
ing most stunning effect.

sever WORD or the many conscientious
which moved the members to pass
them. The journal of the Circuit Court
ecords the simple verdict of guilty
rhich may consign a fellow-citizen to
.lfe imprisonment, but that journal is
as dumb as the Sphinx, as to the evil
dence which prompted the jury to rem
der such verdict. So does the record
of the proceedings of the board of state
auditors contain only brief statement
of the boards conclusions In each case,
but does not show the evidence upon
which il acted. But such evidence is
always to be found in the original
vouchers. Does the Democratic party
c..re to look further and be honest?
Not at all. 1t prefers to howl.
| So much for what may be called the
technical aspect of the case. But If this
slanderous correspondent had desired
to deal fairly by Mr.. Grosvenor, he
would have stated what was the fact,
that the latter's trip to Washington re-
suited i'm the satisfactory adjustment of
heavy claims which this state had ac-
cumulated against the general govern
ment for war expenditures, and which
were in a. very unsettled condition at
the time Mr.. Grosvenor went into the
Office of State Treasurer. But such a
statement would have destroyed the
purpose of the article, and SO Mr.. Gros-
vernor's private character had to be
smirched for the sake of casting refec-
tions upon his record as a Republican
state official.
Mr.. Grosvenors case is but one out
of many Democratic ISLANDERS set atioat.
The expense accounts of other equally
III "a. In,
the transaction of equally important
business of the state have been mis-
represented and paraded before the
people. The bills audited and allowed
by former boards of auditors, for fur
nishing the new state capitol, have
been represented as every day occur
rences, as if Republican state officers
have been uselossly piling up in the
capitol purchases of expensive fur
niture rugs and carpets or fitting up
their own private residences with
them. No Misrepresentation have
been too gross for the Democrats 70
make. But il is useless to try to run
them all down. The same spirit of
righteousness and indifference to
truth pervades them all.
What more do the people want, to
convince them of the rottenness of the
Democratic cause, than this cold
blooded assassination of personal
regulations? A cause whose advo-
Gates are reduced to such desperate
straits is much better lost than won
at least for the people of the state of
Michigan. They cannot afford to put
into power, or to keep in power, any
party at the expense of the good name
and reputation of citizens whom they
have loved to honor and respect. If
Democratic virtue is not real in ITSELF
but merely relative, and it can be
shown to exist only by proving the
rest of the people to be thieves and
swindlers. then it is scarcely worth
saving. The people would be paying
too dear for their whistle" And yet
this is exactly the price that the lead
ers of the Michigan Democracy are
asking the people to pay for another
two years OF Democratic incompetency
and fraud. 1t is too much.
