That women can keep a secret has
been proven in a case in court at Lath-
rop, Kas. Some years ago a body of
women destroyed a saloon, and a
charge of malicious destruction Of
property was lodged against them. An
exchange notes that as many as thirty
were arrested; everybody present at
the time of the damage was summon
ed to court. The prosecuting attorney
of the county strove for two years to
procure a conviction of somebody; re.
porters IN numbers besieged everybody
concerned. but not one of the women
weakened or betrayed the secret.
Twelve knew who was guilty of break
ing the first window of the saloon, but
they covenanted with one another to
keep the knowledge a secret and they
have kept to their word.

The newest impOrtations from Par
is would indicate that the horizontal
bar will fast disappear from the win
ter's bodice Horizontal tucks are no
longer worn; neither is the bodice
closed on the left side. Fine, length
wise tucks, however, still hold their
own and are really too delicate and
pretty to be discarded easily. Those
of lawn worn during the summer are
now replaced by others of silk even
more dainty.
The crossed slightly bloused bodice
promises to be a general favorite, and
is suitable for both maid and matron.
A charming example for a youthful
matron is of a light violet, slightly
speckled cloth. The bodice has a
braided vest, crossed with a low
blouse and finished around the waist
with belt of deep violet satin. Bands
of the same adorn bodice and skirt.
The neck is finished with a Glad
stone collar and jabot of black lace
in front. The very newest neck trim
ming, however, is scant around the
front and back and falls in a full jabOt
on the left side, with number of
small bows crossing the shoulder.
Skirts grow scanter as the season
progresses, and everything presages
a season of tall, slim-looking women.

Much more important than the gown
itself is the trimming thereof. One
girl who has a gown of last season
improved its appearance in the fol-
lowing manner:
The bodice was black and had a
short yoke of pale yellow silk. To
conceal its shabbiness she covered the
entire bodice with a diagonal lattice
work of inch-wide velvet ribbon. The
diamonds FORMED are four inches
across and the effect is remarkably
stunning.
White braid on black is very fetch
ing. A novel gown from Redfern is
trimmed with black braid, which, in
turn, has a narrow piping of white
satin under each edge.
Another dark blue gown-has a
gold and black braid garniture, while
a third gown-again blacks worn
with a short, loose jacket of bright
red, lined with white and trimmed
with gold braid.
More quiet, yet equally effective is
a gray cloth costume, with the entire
skirt enciIc led by folds Of black vel
vet, put on at three-inch intervals.

has been thrown largely on her own
resources; unlike the women OF the
old world, she has done her own think
ing. She lives in az electrical at
mOsphere; she is a spoiled child; she
finds herself a component part of a
life that is ever changing, and changes
with it; she has come to regard her
self as by far the most important ele-
ment in that life; she is a child Of the
hour, of the minute; she does not
strike root. Her independence has be-
got an abnormal amount of Individual
ity. Is it a matter for wonder, that,
finding the man she has married I'M
satisfactory, she losses him aside?
1t is to be noticed that no morbid
novel has been written by any woman
of the United States. Neither is
serious criticism to be found in her
work, for these women are rarely
morbid and bitter; never, it might be
asserted, unless they are unhealthy
or very young. They act rather than
talk when it comes to crises. The
past, when disposed of has no further
concern for them. The present is
theirs. the future a condition to be
nodded by their imperial will. 1t may
be asserted broadly that there is no
prejudice against divorce among the
upper classes dwelling in the large
cities of the United States, provided
no scandal has preceded the suit
