After the night gown came the black
chemise, followed in quick succession
by tights. skirts and corset covers,
and finally by the modest pantalet
All these differed in fashion and text

the complete set is here, and the fash

question as To whether her black night

Some very beautiful robes seen in
New York establishments are Of the
tulle. almost hidden by festoons Of fine
black lace A few of the gowns are
trimmed with white lace and ribbon
but this innovation has not vet become
popular. All the gowns are shorter

The tights are Of silk. OF course,

WANTED AS A WITNESS.

Employed in a certain Toledo hotel
is a night porter, one of those whose
duties is to make the early morning
calls" Among the guests of the ho-
tel few days ago was drummer,
who left call for $50, as he wished
to make the 4:25 Lake Shore limited
for the sast. The drummer either was
not aroused to the getting-up point or
his call was missed, for he showed up
at the office at Z q. m. with a great
big kick about not being called. OF
course the porter was hauled over the
Goals, and made protest that he
knocked on the mans door, am
nounced the hour, and the guest an
swered.
1t so happened that the drummer
got on track Of some more business in
Toledo, which occupied his attention
all day, and when night came he again
left duplicate call of the night before.
The porter was apprised of the fact
and warned that failure to arouse
the man would mean his dismissal.
The porter made the call all right,
but would accept no assurance from
the drummer that he was fully awake
and aware of the fact, but, stepping to
the next door, pounded violently there
on. The following conversation en-
sued:
Porter Three thirty; get up.
Innocent YictimGo To left no
call for the middle of the night.
More thumps on the panel. II say,
get up"
II say, go to-,
But you must get up
What for?"
Il want you TO witness that ! called
the man in the next room"
BY this time the cause Of all the
trouble was able to afford ocular dem
onstration at his door that he was up
and half dressed, and the victim was
not pressed into service as witness
but still the porter had another kick
to help the clerk adjust.-Toledo Blade.

startling combination of all the hues

Taken all together, the outfit of black
underwear has its advantages. It is
far from inexpensive, but if the mater
ial is good silk 1t wears very we'll,
and to that extent is good invest
ment. To the econ omically inclined
the first cost is 1 he startling. One
set, consisting of one garment of each
kind, means an outlay of $50. and one
set is very little better than no set at

black outfit of wool, or wool and silk,
