THE LATEST IN DRESS.
Notes of the Fashions for Ladies
Who Keep Up with the
Times.

White gloves, except with black and
white costumes, are never worn so
much as the varied tints Of fawn, bis
cult, nickel gray, cream, lilac and q
greenish gray, says fashion authority.
Silk skirts with silk jersey yoke
tops which cling closely to the figure
are one of the desirable novelties.
A novelty is tight, high collar to be
worn with low-cut evening bodice.
1t harmonizes with the color Of the
gown or with its trimmings, and may
be of shirred mousseline de sole or vel
vet enriched with cabochons or motifs
in Jewels or metals.
The violet fad has taken violet turn.
and half a dozen harmonizing shades
of it are used on one-half, with bunch
of blooms greater than even the most
devoted lover can hope to afford to send
his sweetheart at Easter.
Kharki now comes in different shades
to match different compleXions-a wise
provision of the manufacturer, for the
first muddy brown put on sale was eX-
cessively unbecoming. 1t will be in
teresting to follow the career OF this
material and notice how far from the
original will be the fabrics called ny
that name two years hence.
The princess styles are to be used
for both street and hous gowns, but
are made in much more graceful lines
than were formerly considered fashion
able. The fronts are draped more often
than they are left plain, or have a
jacket effect given by bolero OF lace
or cut work. This gown is only becom-
ing to the slender woman, and then
it is better to be draped.
Among the smartest gowns that are
made up intended for very slender WON
en- are those of the lightweight cloths
In the different pastel colorings and
most deliberately fashioned, with alb
solutely nothing of the tailor-made
look about them. 1t is astonishing what
different appearance these gowns
present to those that are made of cloth
and in what are known as the tailor
made styles.

COMMON SENSE IN DRESS.
A Perplexing PrOblem-How to Econ
omIze and still Be Up
to Date.

"What to wear is the most perpleX-
ing problem that confronts women,
particularly at change of seasons"
says E. Marguerite Lindley, writer
on health subjects in the New York
Tribune How to economic and still
be I'D to date is always a sore puzzle.
"In the vestibule of church sun
day or two ago heard delicate, tired
looking woman say to another who
looked equally worn: 4 hear street
skirts are to be worn short again.
WELL replied the other, L hope they
will, for my arm aches continually
from holding mine up l thought TO
myself: Poor slave! We're you
hireling anywhere, and thus oppressed,
the faddists would be alive with ir-
ritant sympathy for you and your
rights would be speedily restored. But
here you are, an Independent woman
of the country where women have the
greatest freedom, bowling a submissive
head to the tyranny Of dressmakers,
and you are not only firing your poor
arms but you are dragging disease ana
dirt into your home and wearing to
rags in a short time a gown that ought
TO remain intact an entire season.
"Where is the independence that we
women of our great republic boastH
We pity the poor savage women OPP

quite like any continental town, and
the residents dress as they would in
London or Paris, so a tourist is at once
noticed on account of her remarkable
get-up.
Even In STEAMBOAT the natives
know directly whether purchaser is
a resident or traveller from her or his
clothes, and charge accordingly for
their wares. A Turk once asked II it
was true that all the English women
who travel are ugly and badly dressed,
or that they were sent out OF England
on account of their clothes
THE natives are almost beginning
to cease being astonished at anything
extraordinary from an English per-
son. They simply Hhrug their shout
ders and say: What can you expect?
They are English BY the travellers
behavior I mean that they walk about
the streets and laugh and talk as If
they had never been in a civilized coun-
try before"
Tazewell Republican. [volume] (Tazewell, Va.) 1892-1919, 1900-07-19

pressed by the customs OF their coun-
try; yet where Is there a savage peo-
ple whose women trail heavy skirts
about the ground, wear tight, stiff cor
sets about their waists, tight shoes and
gloves upon feet and hands and cover
their eyes with lace wells? Civilization
must be a misfortune when 1t rids
people of cleanliness, and art in attire,
of health of body and longevity OF vi
sion. Some women are physically able
to resist ravages on health much longer
than others, just as some bank accounts
will bear heavier strains than others.
But there is sure to come time when
the fertilization weakens and when in
roads upon health and comfort are
permanently made.
ITO obtain such goods as will recon-
pense for the making is my idea OF
true economy in buying. A gown that
Is inconspicuous in color, becoming
and tasteful, can, as a rule, be worn
two seasons, and the wearer is apt
to be always appropriately dressed.
"For the woman of moderate means
great variety of gowns is neither nee
essary nor desirable, and for the small
wardrobe economy is especially desira-
BILE in underclothing. The fewer the
pieces worn. the more time saved IL
dressing and in arranging the laundry,
the smaller the laundry bills and the
lighter the mending basket. For this
xeason the union suit is a blessing.
as it takes the place of two garments
and saves the wearer the multiplicity
of materials at the waist.
"Some mothers still force their young
daughters into corsets, but the girls
themselves are beginning to think out
their personal rights and to demand
as n consequence, corset waists in

Economizing Lace. .

Just now so much lace is worn in thu
way of ties, scarfs, ETC., that a poo
girl is inclined to give up the struggle
to be in the swim of the moment. a.
lace is such perishable wear. But
little lace goes n long way If it is care
fully washed and only kept for specia
occasions. Also lace scarf or tie vii
last four times longer If the bow il
made separate and fastened on by tin!
pins than if tied every time it is put on

HOUSTON AND HIS WIFE.
When He Found She Didn't Love Him
He Left Her without Much
Ceremony.

Opie Reed tells an incident OF Gov.
Houston as follows, says the Chicago
Chronicles: 81 am proud to know that
nv state-Tennessee- so much to
do with shaping the destinies OF Tex
as. Sam Houston's first wife was the
sister of my brother-in-law, Judge AL
len, of Tennessee. l knew her when
she was getting along in years and
have often heard her tell of the sepa-
ration which took place almost i'm
mediately after the ceremony. The
wedding guests were gone and they
were sitting alone by the fire.
Suddenly Gen. Houston discovered
that she was weeping. He asked the
cause Of her tears, and she told him
that she had never loved him, never
could, and admired him to please her
father. 4 love Mr.. Douglass she
added, but 1 will try my best to be
dutiful wife to YOU Miss said Gov.
Houston, even waving the fact that
he had just married her, no white
woman shall be my slave; good night.
He mounted his horse and rode to
Nashville, wrote out his resignation
as governor and before daylight next
morning was on his way to Indian ter
ritory.
Houston was a man absolutely
without fear and his strong devotion
to Andrew Jackson influenced him to
advise against secession, believing
that Jackson would have taken the
same stand. Issues die, but the fame
of great men must live. Houston Is
as immortal as Texas herself"

Milk Yields the Profit.

In the dairy profit must come out
of the milk and milk alone. Beer
should not be considered. 1t hardly
pays the dairyman to feed an animal
ten or twelve years in order to sell
for beef when at the outside three
years feeding should be sufficient to
mature and finish for market beef
animal. Feed the dairy cow for milk
and consider the returns from the
milk as the profits, and when the ami
NAL fails as dairy COW sell to the
best advantage, considering what II
received as so much gain. - Rural

WOMEN TO TAKE THE CENSUS.
O.A Indiana Supervisor Appoints
Two Women In His District
as EnumerRtOrS.

Census Supervisor j. D. Poutch, OF
the New Albany Qnd.) district, has ap-
pointed two female enumerators in
his territory. One is Mrs. Ruth Ellen
Funk, of Harrison county, and the 9TH
er Miss Alta Ritter, Of Orangeville,
Orange county. Miss Ritter is at pres
ent employed as teacher in the pub
lie schools of Kokomo, and is an ex-
ceptionally bright young woman, says
local report. Mrs. Funk served as
erumerator when the census was taken
ton wears ago, and her work was high
ly satisfactory.
In speaking of the matter, Mr..
Poutch said: ut has been demon
strated that a woman can do excep-
tionally good work as an enumerator,
as she is at all times painstaking and
careful, and her work is, as a rule,
model of neatness. You will also no.
tice that l have named great many
school-teachers for this work. The rea-
son for this is, suppose, due princi-
pally to the fact that the schools close
lust before the taking Of the census
begins, and the teachers make the ap-
plications in order to have something
to do during the vacation. l sent sam
pie blanks to all the applicants to be
Allied out, and naturally the teachers
were more successful than any others
in filing these blanks, thus securing
the appointments
Probably about 90 per cent. Of the
enumerators in the country are school
teachers. At least this is so In Indi-
ana, and, suppose, IN other states over
the country. 1t requires much more
care to make a successful enumeration
than is generally supposed, and the
supervisor is subjected'to great many
trials and much trouble in remedying
the defects, so that his position is not
the pleasant and desirable one that
many persons suppose"

SAVAGE ENGLISH IN TURKEY.
Natives Think They Must Have Been
Exiled for Their Bad
Clothes.

A correspondent from CONSTANT
NOBLE saws: 1.-THE natives think that
all English women land men) dress
badly in England, because of the cos
tunes tourists wear. They certainly
do wear the most extraordinary
clothes, and 1t looks as If they are do
ing their best to make themselves RI
diculous. Very short skirts and badly
fitting coats, large wide-awake hats
and thick wells, says the Gentlewoman.

Long Rows Save Labor.

An exchange well illustrates the i'm
portance of long rows by telling OF a
western farmer who had plowed land
90 rods wide and half-mile long. He
made three fields, each 53 rods wide and
100 rods long. When planted in corn
lie found that his man conld cultivate it
the long way of the row in three days,
while if going the other way there
was four days work. Just one day
extra was spent in turning around at
the end three times as often.

A law that would prohibit the sale
of calves for food before they are
three months old would put an end
to dob" veal and lead to improve
ment of stock, for the reason that If
farmers were compelled to feed their
calves to the age of three months
they would then give some attention
to breeding in order to derive as
much as possible from the calves.
The scrub bull would soon become
useless under such system, and the
farmers would find the change great
ly in their favor Many OF the infant
calves are sold when but three days
old and are then unfit for human
food.-Prairie Farmer

stood, fully entered student, on the
steps of St. Paul's hospital. His faith
er's stories of the life at the old college
had fired the boys youthful ardor, and
away in the plains of India he had
vowed to be a doctor, and to win
place in the l. NJ. S.
And now it was as dust in his mouth,
for he was alone. In his fathers sta
ton he had been the pride of the Euro
pean staff, for no one could beat him
in any branch of athletics, but at st.
Paurs he was an unnoticed unit.
Presently a man whom he saw at
once was a native of India, came and
stood close by his side. Moved by the
urgent need for companionship, Sher'
riff made the first advances.
81 wonder if you feel as lonely as
do?" he asked.
The native turned abruptly.
"I'm from India" he replied, dark
flush sweeping over his face as he
heard a muttered "Nigger" spoken by
one student to another.

from Amritsar, where my father is sta

on Six More Ships.

WASHINGTON, September 24.-The
Navy Department is doing everything
in its power to expedite the dispatch
of the six ships which the government
has decided to send to the Asiatic sta
ton to reinforce our feet there.
With the addition of these six ships
the United States fleet in Asiatic waters
will consist of thirtv-four vessels, by
far the largest American feet ever en-
ployed on strictly foreign service. In
case actual hostilities should be neces-
sary the Pacific squadron, which con-
sists of the battleship Iowa, the cruiser
Philadelphia and a number of smaller
fighting ships, would be in a position
to effect a juncture with the Asiatic
squadron.
Rear Admiral Remeywill remain in
command of the American naval forces
in the east, and probably will make the
port of Manila his principal headquar-
tiers. The fleet will be divided into
two divisions, the first cruising in
the Philippines, to be under the direct
command of Admiral Remey, and the
second, which will confine its cruising
to Chinese waters, commanded by
Rear Admiral Kempff.

ANTI-FoREIGN SENTIMENT
Seems to be Uppermost in Chinese
Afairs-A High Place for Prince

Seems to be Uppermost in Chinese
AfYairs--A High Place for Prince
Tuan.
NEW YORK, September PA dis
patch to the Herald from Shanghai
says:
prince Tuan is declared by Taotai
Shang to have been appointed grand
secretary to the Emperor, position
enabling him to control all communica-
tons to and from the throne. This
constitutes a defiance of Germanys
demands. The Taotai of Shanghai, who
iigned for the viceroys the friendly
agreement with the foreign consuls has
been removed by imperial edict, his
successor being strongly aHti-foreign
and having urged the Chinese govern
menf to repudiate the foreign debt,
and being Kang-Yi's protege. An I'M
official protest was made by U. 5. Con-
sui Goodnow to the viceroys. These
facts are considered defiance OF Ger
manys demand for the punishment OF
Prince Tuan, as the head of the Boxers.
The Chinese are greatly excited over
the appointment.
The Washington correspondent of
the Herald, commenting on the above
dispatch, says:
Considerable interest was taken by
Administration officials and Minister
WI in the announcement that Prince
Tuan has been appointed grand sec
rotary, in defiance of Germany, and
that the anti-foreign element is in con-
troll" sisss&s
No confirmation of the appointment
has been received in Washington, and
both at the State Department and the
Chinese legation there was a DISPOSE
ton to doubt the report. Should Off
cial confirmation come the authorities
say that it will have an important
bearing upon the attitude of all the
Powers, as Prince Tuan is regarded as
one of the officials responsible for the
anti-foreign outrages.
