Novelties for Autumn,

The latest novelty in capes is made of
chene glace with black velvet scroll
pattern all over it. Full panels of Rus
sian net edged with passementerie
trimmings hang over the shoulders, and
black and white tulle with tall founda-
ton of heavy silk forms the ruche at
the neck.
White tulte tied in a large bow in
front is one of the popular decorations
for the neck, and among the new collar
bands arranged to wear with different
dresses is one of white satin ribbon,
with a scalloped frill of ecru embroidery
ruched on the edge with very narrow
colored satin ribbon.

A Boys Dewey Souvenir.
Souvenirs of Dewey are to be had on every
hand, If not for the mere asking, at least
for the paying. But they are coId-hearted
souvenirs, that have no intimate connection
with the life of the great admiral. If one
might get as memento something that had
been his own, that would be different mat
ter. A certain small boy has a keen appre-
citation of that fact. He feels that he has
been more highly favored than the average
mortal, for has he not even penetrated the
sacred precincts of the Olympia and met the
hero of Manila face to face? He was taken
aboard ship by his father. After his return
home the family observed that the little fel.
