Important Item In Dress.

A becoming veil Is Gl important item
of dress, and the woman who makes a
selection without any regard to the eff
feet of the mesh on her complexion
makes mistake. Another point which
adds to or detracts very much from the
success of her costume is the way she
puts it on. If it wrinkles across the
face and the ends are not carefully
caught in at the back, it is the first OBJ
ject of interest in her appearance, no
matter how elegant and attractive her
gown may be, says writer in The Sun.
who adds: Too thin or too thick meshes
are not becoming to any one, and if the
pattern is fancy it is usually very try.
ing. The plain meshes with medium
sized chenille dots, not too close togeth-
er. are most generally becoming, but
the elaborate meshes are very much
worn, as they come in the finest veil
ing. Double yelling lof plain white
tulle over black, with, dots, is one of
the novelties for SUMMER, but the fash
ion at summer resorts of wearing two
wells, one of dotted chiffon over one of
fancy net, still hJlds good, as it affords
great protection to the skin. Wells fin
ished with an edging are worn, but
they are not so becoming as the piece

Yelling with tiny flower sprays is

No Longer welded to silver.

Senators Stewart and Jones, those
two old silver war horses, are mystify-
ing the enemy and dumfounding the
silverites by their sudden change from
pessimism TO optimism. They are both
in Wall street and are specializing ON a
great wave of prosperity. Senator Stew
art said OH Aug. 12:
"There is no room for pessimism in
this country. No one can be bear in
the face of the wheat famine in Argen-
tina, Russia, Hungary and India. In
view of this condition abroad I should
not be surprised to see silver sell as low
as 90 cents and wheat as high as 81.
There is nothing in talking silver at
the present time, and my advice to my
friends in the west is to fall into line
with the forces of prosperity and prog.
ress and receive their due share of the
reward
'The time has passed for the old is
sues. We must turn to face new issues
and new conditions.
81 frequently hear it said that this
security market is duplicate of the
market in 1889. 1t is not 1t is more of
bull market. All a man has to do is
to get into it--go to sleep and get rich.
The wheat situation in the west will
make every railway not only dividend

Senator Jones talked in similar
