FASHION HINTS

Well dressed women must have several
sorts of shirt-studs and cuff-buttons to
blend with assorted coloringS in gowns
OF wee brooches and stick pins the
woman cannot have too many. They are
needed to fasten refractory bows, belts
and laces.
| New side combs are of amber or shell
curved and topped with rhinestones
New ornaments for the hair are in wing
and hundred devices, jewel studded.
Card cases of Powered silk are a nov
city of the hour. They are made of bro
caded taffeta and, are square in shape
They are minus any silver Ornamental
| ton.
| The small silver coat of arms has
taken the place of the monogram or
pocketbooks and chatelaine bags. The
immensely popular
| Lace is playing no humble role just
now. The latest gloves for evening wear
are of white undresSed kid, with lace
medallions let into their back wher the
stitching used to run.
| No woman can really be content in the
treacherous dews and damps Of summer
If she is without a handy comb The
y,
ried in purse, match or stamp box,
or even stuck in. the belt.
| Plaid hat bands, though pretty and
considered stylish, have not won the
heart Of our girls. They prefer the col
| lege colors or the plain white bands
They are fetching, and flatter college
youths. 1t is a peculiar fact that college
girls rarely adopt their own college col
ors for hat bands.
| Many of the Chicago girls have decid-
| ed at last on the fashionable pompadour
1t is rather a distinct style, and lends
an air of grace to a beautiful face. The
pretty round combs are great aid in
the dressing of the pompadour, and those
set with jewels are decidedly beautiful
for evening wear
| The wearing of white silk gloves is
being universally hailed by Chicago wo-
men. These gloves come in all lengths,
some being styled mousquetaires, ana
others shorter. clasped with pretty pearl
buttons. They are easily washed ami
are worn with thin gowns or with the
pretty shirt waist and diuck shirt
The bands of lace yelling or chiffon on
sailor or alpine hats are becoming so
popular that one begins to wonder if
there is one Chicago woman who does
not favor the fashion. 1t now remains
for some one to invent a new shaped hat
which will usurp the place of these two
afore- mentioned fashions in headgear.
The Dolly Warden bonnet was predicted
but fell short of convenience. 1t was too
large, and the wind scolded.

Stop Clandestine Marriages

Probably many marriages are wholly
clandestine, and may not be revealed to
the parents for months or years. 1t is a
duty which the state owes to parents and
to society to absolutely prohibit clan
destine marriages, by requiring a de-
claration of intention and public re-
cord in the form of an officially issued
license, sufficiently in advance of the
marriage to give all parties interested
due notice thereof.-Oshkosh North

A DESPERATE RESOLVE

I'll beard a lion in his den,
Or try a hurricane to stop;
I'll mock the monsters in fen,
Or even dare to scorn O. cop"
I'll visit some barbaric shore,
Or down in Cuba risk my life;
But here | swear that nevermore
Will go shopping with my wife.

Big Hats and Drinks.

A Birmingham woman writes as fol- lows of big hats and men who go out between acts at theaters:
 "Ah! my poor rdess, Positively it will be ruined and right across the knees too," sighed a pretty girl in a pretty gown, at the tn ater the other. night
 What caused the sighed remark, was the going out of two men who were seated in the very middle of row of seats. Out they vert, only to return in ten minutes, causing a. dozen folks to get up twice, brushing by, rubbing dresses, stepping on toes, with odors of their friend CD clinging to them: such odors that they caused spicy re- marks to ba made about them. One woman dropped her opera glasses, an- other her handkerchief, another her fan. ard such scrambling one. never saw to recover the lost articles. While my pretty girl dropped herself in her chair, with a glad look that she had lost noth- ing, when a man behind her just com- ing from consultation with friend, nearly knocked down or off her psyche
 Seated 6 few seats in front of her was a woman with big hat! Horrors. d. not know who suffered most, the pretty girl ovsr her ups and downs. or two men behind the big hat This way and that swayed that hat, and this way and that swayed their heads, until one mopped his brow, and the other softly swore an oath, and the hat kept bobbing and the woman talking. It is always the chatter-box woman, who wears mon- stresities on her head to the theater She does not think, she has done enough mischief by obstructing most of the stage, but must wag her tongue most of th@ time, talking what is going to happen in the next act, and everything the individuals behind her do not care to know just then.
 l was an onlooker at both little dramas. and an idea entered my brain and this is It.
 l think that all men who have fri snds that they must see during the play, should be seated on a row or rows Of seats especially reserved for them. That is men who go to the th-ater alone, for of course, one can't leave a lady one has taken during the play. They will then cause no one but themselves n- convenience and that will be all right.
 About big hats I say don't let them be worn.
 Even little bonnets are a nuisance, be- cause some poor dead birds tail is sure to get before th- range of some unfor- tunates vision. Affairs of ribbons and flowers are all right, and in what docs 2 woman look prettier? Nothing. No hats, with artistically arranged coiffurss are lovely But if such is t) be, mana gers of theaters must have a dr. ssng room, where the fair sex can leave their hats. and arrange their hair which is always tossed, when one comss from out of doors and taking off of hats rum pies it .ven more than a tiny shawl or the wind. when nothing protects it from the night zephyrs
 So, let it be, and I am sure all will be benefited. ard see and hear all tn re is tc be seen or heard, and consequently be happy. G. s. F.

 The most conservative are acknoWledg- ing that in no other way can enc de- diScoverreado hmhm h.nh mhmh mhmh small out lay as by bsconfng members of'congsn,al clubs. Here in his beau iful old town full of traditions that are dear
 to every southern heart there are such variety of clubs that l.he most d!versl- fled tas SIS can be gra,ified. There are card clubs, music clubs, Literary clubs. tennis oluts and dancing clubs, and the following brief and condensed account of. them but in degree gives one an idea of the work being accomplished or the pleasure derived from them:
 The soo.al clubs are: The Tuesday Card. club, Mrs. Pratt Stout, president, wi h a m ;mbsrshipi nfted to forty. The h ,stess has the privilege of inviting any number she chooses. I. is hard 10 say who is most active in promoting 5he success of thts club as the usefulness of the srlu, this club, as the usefulness of Ghe club assures is success. Euchre is the game chosen, the prize the object and the re- frsshments the feature. :.
 The Whist c.ubs-one organized by Mr; ana one organized by Mrs. Judge Johnj Gludrat Winner and playing at Mrs. Brickelrs home, are much enjoyed by both lacies and gentlemen.
 The Tennis club, w h it's auxiliary of nations tts, s,cmfwyp sh du vbgkqj cmfw ladies, is one of the most pleasant so- cial organizations. Maj Mahan, presi- dent .Rssisted by Mrs. Phares Coleman, president aof the ladies' division, are in- defa tigabIs in their effors to secure It's success. Their court is att Cloverdale park.

 These, I think are the strictly social organizations, though the social feature is prominent on all occasions where la dies are participants Somehow or oth- CT we think dish of ca is always an added, charm.
 The, Daughters of the Confederacy have too serious an objection to be classed as social Institution, though it
 has an exclusive m mbership. The fmembsis are all enthusiastic ih promot- ing its success, and have chosen able leaders. Mrs, John A..
