There were no railroads. and we

Fashions of Grandmothers' Time
Are Again Coming Back,

The days of our great girandmothers
are coming back to us, and the dainty
housakeepsr is not satisfied unless her
linen closet is redolealt with the sweet
fresh fragrance of lavender, says
Washington paper. Scented beds are a
great fad in England, also. While
sachets of lavender laid in press and
bureau drawers in oalken chest and linen
cloasst, are the usual means of impair ing
this fragrance, the solidfed perfume
made up in the form of Sweet balls"
(grandmother's fashion redivivus) will
be found more satisfactory and lasting.
The rule for this, as given by an expert
in the art is to mix quarter Of pound
of crushed lavender flowers with ten
DROPS of oil of lavender and make it into
dough with a little gum tragacanth.
Knead this into balls about the size of a
marble, roll in powdered orris root and
put in tight tin box to dry. A supply
of these may be made and be kept on
hand in a closely corked bottle, to replace
the old ones when their pungency has
vanishsd d.
There is generally decided differences
between street gowns and reception
gowns, but this season, says Harpers
Bazar, the street or walking gowns are
so elaborate that it is a tri1e difficult to
decide which is which. However, the
gown that is worn every day is not fresh
enough nor is it smart enough fer af-
ternoon and for receptions, so that there
must be a different costume for the va
rious occa sions besides different mate
rails can be used in the gowns worn for
what might be called dress wear. This
season the styles are very difficult to de-
scribe, because the bsauty of the gown
consists so much in the hanging of the
skirt, the folds Of the waist and the COM
bining of colors. There are only one or
two distinctive points which are new,
and, with the exception of the sleeves,
last winters gowns are not marksd ly UNI
fashionable. The waist of almost all
the gowns have the blouse effect in front,
or gone soft folds OF drapery; the blouse
back ls met Ssen on the handsomest
gowns. Every SORT Of trimming Is used,
and a perfect h@6gepodge OF materials
Is combined In one frock poplin, silk,
velvet. lace. embroidery and passemen-
terie are ali put tczether-cleverly, to be
sure and only an-art1st could combine
them an satisfactorily. Lace both black
and white, is used in the most reckless
manner. Altogether there are wealth
and luxury displayed that will make the
fashions of this winter remembered for
some time. Fur has not been mentioned
but Is used aid libitum to trim the hand
soonest of gowns as we'll as the plainest,
and not only narrow, but the wide bands
are to be seen.
Cerisette, Roman gladioll, coquel,cot,
corail and dark rich pivoine are among
the very fashionable shades In red. Ber-
ceuse is a lovely shade Of pink found
only among handsome sat.ns and bro
cades. Thsre are ten distinct shades of
reddish purple, also a very popular dye
in much deeper tone, known as pre-
lat, worn in bishops robes that looks
very elegant in velvets and corded silks.
1t is much used in winter millinery. Jour-
dain Russo and Tournoi are among the
very fashionable shades In green.

QUEER FREAK In KANSAS

During Last Night.
ONLY A DARK POOL MARKS The SPOT
Efforts to Reach the Bottom of the
Pool with Long Plumb Lines
Have So Far Proved
Unsuccessful.

Larned, Kas., Nov. 19.-The railroad
station of Rozel, on the Jetmore branch
of the A., Z. & Fl. railroad, has been
swallowed up. Today there is a dark,
stagnant pool of water where II hours
before stood the depot, grain elevator
and several small buildings.
The swallowing up process occurred
during the night The depth of water is
unknown, as the longest ropes have been
lowered into it and failed to reach the bot
tom.
Sticks thrown into the pool are sucked
out of sight as though by amonster under
tow.
A similar freak occurred in Mead coun
ty about ten years ago. The phenomena
have given rise to the theory that great
river or sea underhows all of western
Kansas.
