II. clay Evans for Governor.

The concensus of Republican opin-
ion in Tennessee is for Hon. Fl. Clay
Evans as the Republican candidate
for Governor of Tennessee. when the
gubernatorial convention meets on the
18th of August for the purpose of nomi-
mating q candidate, he will undoubtedly
he nominated without opposition. He
was elected two years ago and was
counted out, and is now, without
doubt the logical candidate of his
party this year.
If nominated he can not refuse to &C.
cept, and not to nominate him would
be piece of political cowardice of
which Tennessee Republicans are in
capable. No other candidate is talked
about, or seriously thought of. No
other man in the State understands the
issues better than he, and none are
abler to present them with force, vigoT
and clearness. The Republicans will
pit him against Bob Taylor and will
work for his re election zealously and
with confidence. Whether in joint
debate or otherwise, he will not be
afraid of what Bob may say or do upon
the stump. In either case he will be
able to hold his own. He will be the
standardbearer of his party in the CUB
ernatorial campaign, and if elected
| again, there are thousands, thousand
j ready to swear that he shall not b'
counted out again. Knoxville Jour

oddities, but they are absolutely the
only element of novelty or of menace
in the changing season.
The new sleeve is not q thing of COM

When Mary E. Wilkins came to New
York the first winter during which the
big sleeves were worn, she went to
literary reception, and that remark of
hers which was quoted most widely
was no question of problem novels or
of idealism in art. Aren't their big
sleeves just cunning!" said Miss Will

masked at the shoulder by a cape, or at
the elbow by a frill, but it's own blessed
self is caressingly snug. And who
could blame it, in such a case as that,
of the divinely tall and most divinely
fair young girl in the teagown, strong
in the self-command to which some
are born, the big-fgured stuff of her
gown caught at the bottom and falling

The hat worn with such white suit is

frills of chiffon, black edged, and three

The SWEETEST of open coats will linger

along the shoulders and down the front
run Il continuous collarette and stole
of beautiful brocade, pale pink ground,
with richer red and pale blue flowers,
all edged with close shirred chiffon,
which forms at the bottom of the stole
a heavy pendant quite to the hem of the
skirt. The cuffs show the same bro
cade and the same edging of chiffon
frills.
The tucked, frilled and fiounced
skirt is here, in increasing numbers,
worse luck to it! The draped skirt
threatens.
Big, short, loose jackets of velvet, jet

very narrow stripe of white and hello

this winter. and this is one reason why
women with slender purses will well
come the spring.
A gown in terra Gotta red: Smooth

pouched front, and yoke and tiny

it on the grass beneath the big elm
tree. The only trouble was that there
were too many black ants. We had
lots of good cake and fried chicken.

Peg dropped her iron. They all

next farm, a nice parlor with tides on
every chair-tidies made by Jennie's
sisters-sweet little children about the
place, always clamoring to go over and
see their aunties. Her thoughts trav-
eled so rapidly that before the silence
was broken one of these children had
grown into very pretty girl, who
stopped on her way home from picnics
to tell her dear old aunts what lovely
time she had. They knew she hal
been the belle of the picnic, though she
MAS much too sweet to mention the
fact. LiZa's voice dispelled the vision.

The others began their protests, but
she interrupted them.

to do with it," she said. Il wanted to

in Mr.. Kipling's phrase. Our newspa-
per and business offices do not serve
tea at five p. M, and suspend work for
an hour for laughter and chatting.
The high tea is purely domestic in
stitution, gaining ground rapidly, al
most for women's sole use, and hence
mere parade for gowns. So it was
not surprising that the new sleeyed
girl should have had a new sleeved
caller. And as the teagown is a lis

and intense, and the conner from with
out was clipper and birdlike in pic
ture hat of frilled tin surmounted by
satin ribbon, striped of black and
white, and her satin gown had three,
mink-edged capes and five rows OF
trimming at the hem, and three basque
founces without the fur. The sleeves
were of wrinlxled satin, the belt was
black and very wide, with huge
buckle, and simple lace tie replaced
the elaborate, bow-adorned stock col
lars of the recent past; no peace to the
ashes of the choking, uncomfortable
nuisance!

across the upper arm, leaving the shout

Those variants of the new sleeve are

are others. There is a general pref

sleeves of tea gowns and ball dresses.

Tight sleeves of pale blue glace silk,

Tight sleeves of dull red satin, loose

Tight sleeves of pale blue, with veil

black.
Perhaps this use of a diaphanous veil

bridge over the awlxwardness of q trans

such a period, doubtless she needs no
such assistance. Meanwhile the aver

''She thought that people who were

rich could live cheaper in summer than
in winter (this, of course, not taking
any account of summer travel and that

summer they had less to pay for fuel,
and the clothes required cost less and
they could if need be live on as little
then as at any time; the rich, eating
more or less fresh vegetabl and fruits
in winter, because vegetables were
cheaper in summer.
''As to people i'll moderate circum-
stances, that is, with incomes sufficient
to live comfortably on, she thought
that, if anything, it cost them rather
more to live in summer. Light, fuel
and clothes cost them more in winter,
but they spent less in winter for food.
The moderate people couldn't afford to
eat fresh vegetables in winter; they
ate canned goods then and in less guam

vegetables and fruits of which they
