the Fashions,

Separate skirts of taffeta are plain
and are finished around the lower edge
with three narrow shaped ruflles OF
yolantes of the material. The little
taffeta coats can be bought now for
much less than woolen garments.
The collars and lapels that are to be
found to wear with these coats, as well
as almost anything else in the way Of
coat or bodice, are of linen with ap.
plications of lace, linen edged with
lace, heavy linen and linen gauze, white
lawn and lace insertion, entire deuX
collars, and lace and null.
And there are as many more for the
children. They are very pretty and at
tractive over the little bright red or
brown or blue jackets. For small boys
sailor suits there are collars and plas'
irons of even more varieties in pretty
starched striped materials.
The entire deux, strips of lace and
null, are finding their way into the
thinnest stocks. just plain strip to
go around the neck with long ends to
tie in front. Null ties are made now
as the ribbon ones were earlier in the
season, the straight piece which goes
around the neck having in the center
four or five heavy cords to give it body,
the ends being of the pain null and
long enough to cross in the back and
tie in front. They and the stock are
frequently edged with lace.
Simple little waist ties are made OF
silk about the width of an ordinary soft
silk necktie, pointed at the ends and
simply hemmed around the edges on
the machine. They are long enor gh to

tical summer saults when he lost
his job; landed in the greenback
party: then Topped back into the

up as&lemocrat and applied for the
position of United States attorney
under Cleveland; failing in this he
began to "cuss" Cleveland & Co.
He now hates and cusses the bank

one of the biggest bankers in the
Indian Territory, for national COM
mitteeman. Though he has been
national committeeman four years
he has never attended a meeting of

has for some time past manufac-
tured for his best customers by the
Ardmore Mill and Elevator Co., a
brand of flour known as "Jakes'
Best" which brand is placed on
each sack.
A controversy having arisen be-
tween him and the representative
of a we'll known wholesale grocery
house of Ardmore. as to the re-
spective merits of this flour and
the brand made by the Purcell
Mill and Elevator Co., known as
The Leader" a wager was made
as to which was the better flour
and by agreement &. p. Whiteman
and L.. B. Robertson were chosen
as judges. This morning tests
were fairly and thoroughly made
and 'JakeS Best" was in a short
time declared by both judges to be
far superior. being winter and a
much better quality.
This test reflects great credit on
a home industry and also on Jake
for his good judgment and earnest
efforts in giving his customers the
best in the market. We are inform
ed that both brands of flour are
retailed at the same price. 3-1m
