Fashion now permits great latitude with
regard to headwear, and women are not
obliged to adopt uniformly large or small

with no risk of appearing out Of date.
Although sleeves are actually beginning

How to Add to House Gown-A Besuti-
full Costume.
Nothing is prettier to diversity the ap-
pearance of house gown that has become
n triile monotonous than u sleeveless bod
ice made of Dresden silk, fancy striped
satin or small patterned brooade. This
may be half low, fitted to carefully boned
lining and only slightly full front and
back. The opening around the arm is
made to fit neatly and Is either corded,
gimp edged or frilled to hide the joining.
The bodice fastens invisibly and Is put
over the waist proper Just as one would
add an Eton jacket. This gives a novel
look to the gown, The amount Of silk or
satin required Is very little, for 1t Is the
sleeves which devour material nowadays.
Small turn back cuffs matching the low
bodice are a pretty addition. This sugges-
tion is meant for women of slender build.

Shepherds plaids Of gray, brown and

few things are neater and prettier for a

Moire antique Is seen again, not only In
silk, but In poplin, although 1t had Its
day, one might have thought, two years
ago, when all watered effects were so
much worn. Tho watered poplins are,
however, very beautiful and are to be had
in all evening shades and some dark ones.
The liking for metal trimmings has not
yet begun to wane. Spangled belts are
among the later developments OF the fancy.
They are newer than the gold ribbon
belts, which are still worn, and are more
serviceable, as the gold ribbon soon tar
nishes while the spangles do not.

WAS NOT GRAVES.
Sheriff Johnson Has Another Long
and FruitlesS Search.

Sheriff Johnson and some of his depu-
ties had no sleep on Sunday night, hav-
ing put in their time in an attempt to
run down man supposed to be Graves
the murderer of Joseph Mitchell.
Word was telephoned to the Sheriff
that evening that Graves - or a person
answering his description-had been
seen out near Routier Station, and the
Sheriff and a couple of deputies at once
left the city in search of him. They
spent the entire night in friutless hunt
for the suspect, and returned to the city
yesterday morning weary from loss OF
rest.
Before they had got much rest an
other message came in stating that
the man had again been seen Sheriff
johnson got a fresh team and started
Off with Deputies Hunters, Schwilke and
Smith, and after long and tedious
hunt finally found the man supposed to
be the murderer, but it was not Graves.
The suspect bore a slight general re-
semblance to the murderer, but that
was ALL
Sheriff Johnson is out Of pocket about
a half-month's salary in running down
men supposed to be Graves, and there
appears to be no prospect of reimburse
ment for him, as his office has no fund
on which to draw in such cases. He
says, however, he will spare no efforts
to arrest the murderer, though he hopes
that persons who may think they had
seen the fugitive will be careful enough
to send in more accurate descriptions
than they have heretofore.
