sues, tied with ribbons and enwrapped
In lace. In the initial cut you see one
of the latest styles of scalloped lace
berthas, surmounted by a chiffon col
larette. The gown is pink mauve
crepe de chine. The sleeves are OF
mauve silk muslin, accordion-p leated,
or1ing at the elbow with ribbon band.
Lace figaros in old Irish Ruipure are
very modish. They must fit the figure,
and there should be broad ribbon belt
in Scotch ribbon, cream, pink and green.
In many cases sleeves are mere epau-
lets, below which there Is a lace sleeve
run with a ribbon at the elbow. Lace
berthas are double, the first reaching to
the bust line, and the second almost to
the belt or corselet. Speaking of corse-
let's, / may say that they seem quite as
popular as ever A new style Is to have
the skirt, corselet and sleeves of one
material, and the entire top of plain
bodice closely covered with lace or gui-
pure, with deep frill of lace over the
sleeve.
The newest tailor mades have cut
away coats, curving gracefully at the
HRS and falling to a moderate length in
square tails. The swallow tails reach
ing almost TO the ground are merely a
passing agony, and will not be seen
this fall in town.
In the matter of headgear there is APP
parent at times an inclination TO run to
the highly picturesque, but the persist
ence with which the broad brimmed
sailor hat has held It's place has really
quite disconnected the summer girl.
She has considerable courage, but she
does not care to stand up like Arnold
Winkelried, one against a thousand.
For those longing for something plctur-
esque, the large white chip hat, trimmed
with long white ostrich feathers has

CANT calling costume, or buttoned boots

There will be no end of lawn parties
as the season draws to close. AS two
and three often take place on the same
afternoon, the hostess can only put
from 3 to 3" on her cards and trust to
the strong desire of the summer girl to
display her gowns to as many people as
possible Batiste is largely used for
lawn party dresses, either stamped or
embroidered. Mauve and white are
favorite colors, ana Irish guipure the
lace most used. The dress is usually
cut in one piece, the folds being held at
the waist by ribbon belt, tied in front.
At the top the corsage is composed of a
crossed fichu in plain batiste, and the
front of the dress is so trimmed with
lace as to make the fichu look like a
yoke. The epaulets are of the en-
broidered batiste, and the lower sleeves
Of the plain. The cuffs are of the
guipure. "

pink crepon. The skirt is finished with
two rows of broad galIoon, through
which you pass moss green ribbon as
indicated. Between the rowsof galloon
is placed vertical fancy stitching. The
corsage has the same scheme of orna-
mentation. The broad ribbon belt has
band OF the galloon at the top. The
pulled sleeves are also encircled by q
band OF the galloon; below they are
tight fitting.

THERE Is a wise rule at Rugby forbid
ding the boys to wear Sparty emblems Of
any kind. The head master does not
consider it desirable either that the evil

THE examining board of the Treasury
Department at Washington, ID. c., have
voted unanimously to grant gold medal
to Miss BERTHE o. Burr, of Arkansas,
for rescuing two young ladies from
drowning In the Blue River, near Crete,
Neb., last summer. Miss Burr was the
only swimmer In the party Of six, but
plunged boldly in, and rescued the
drowning girls. She had learned to
swim at Laselle Female Seminary at
Auburndale, Mass, and It is through
Prof. Bragdon of that seminary that
the matter has been brought before the
Treasury officials. This circumstance
Is likely to give a stimulus to the SUBJ
jet OF athletics at girls colleges.

To His Mother.

In a recent book on "Woman
Through Mans Eyeglass" the author
pays. this beautiful tribute to- his
mother, to whom he dedicates the
volume. ~When one has reached
middle life and the wheels of exist

ment OF affection; when one is
wounded and weary, he seeks again
the steady starlight Of a mothers
love. For man who Is
growing old, with neither wife MOI
child to bring him greetings on his
birthday, can conceive nothing more
awful than TO have no mother who
shall say, Bless you, my son.! while
in so doing she happily remembers, in
a gentle autumn mood of love, all
that full Towering summer love with
which she greeted him on that first
birthday" ssHat

A BUFFALO child, afflicted with a
ghoulish mania for death and
funerals, has been poisoning her
childish acquaintances, that her hor-
rible and unnatural craving might be
INDUCED. Unless this child is treated
as a dangerous maniac, and locked up
for life out of the way Of doing harm,
she will furnish another series Of
crime at one time or another during
her career. There is not half care
enough exercised in disposing of the
victims OF such morbid cravings, and,
when proper action at last Is forced,
some unfortunate has paid the pen
atty OF delay.

THE United States has made CON-

TO bestow a representative nomen-

myths OF mythology for unmeaning
names, or to go to natural history,
and borrow from bird and beast
equally uniting terms. There is a

THE Salvation Army is to have a
cavalry troop for each State to ride
rough shod over Satan in the country
districts and small towns which can
not support regular force Of soldiers
or a barracks. This idea of cavalry
in the Salvation Army originated in
California, where it is said to be very
successful in the country districts.
Commander Darlington Booth has de-
clded to adopt it in other States, and
make it regular feature of the sal
walton work.

in the same line are likewise very be-

feathers fastened in front with small
white wing and a crystal buckle. In
stead OF the wing. you may substitute
a pointed bow OF gray velvet ribbon. In

THE high white hat having been
put to rout with great slaughter and
succeeded by the more rational straw
hat as a summer head-covering, there
remains but one other important hot

AN UNFAIR CHARGE.

We observe in last weeks Demo-
erat, Bro. Petition administered chas-
tisement to H. 3. Bell. one of his re-
cent constituents who joined the

voking to vigilant shepherd t. see
the prize winner of the whole flock
stray into his rivals preserves just
when most needed, but it is not fair
to accuse Mr.. Bell Of going in quest
of spoils, simply because he left the
old party.
While this paper is not Mr.. Bells
personal organ, and cannot speak
with authority, we know he is not a
chronic Office seeker, and there is no
reasonable grounds for accusing him
of changing politics for the sake of
Office. Every citizen has right to
change his party.
MI. Bell is q pretty decent Sort OF
a man, and it is no wonder he got
tired of consorting with political
organization under the control and
dominion Of such a man as Otto
Muller. If that class of people con-
tinue to run the democratic party Of
Ford county the remaining respecta
BILE members will also leave or retire
from politics altogether. 1t is quite
probable that Mr.. Bell had no
thought of running FOR representa-
tive when be left the democratic ranks,
but he has many personal friends and
admirers, but democratic and Peoples
Party, who are talking of him in that
connection, and they may prevail on
him to make the race.
