William I'll. Allen.

AA0OI A1OHtllS OI serious Suuor1ng,
William H. Allen died at his home on
North Laurel street Sunday night.
William H. Allen was one of the
substantial men of Bridgeton, ssand has
been prominent figure in its indus
trial development. He was the eldest
son of the late Ner Allen, and in his
early life assisted his father in the
grocery business conducted at the cor
ner of Laurel street and Irving ave-
nue., and later was active partner in
the establishment.
With the late John Getsinger, Mr..
Allen established the Getsinger win
dow glass business on South Laurel
street, and made a great success of
the enterprise. Mr. Getsinger looked
after the practical end, and Mr.. Allen
conducted the business of the office.
He was very careful and accurate in
his methods, and while he remained
a member of the firm the concern
fiourished and made big money.
Later he withdrew his interest from
the concern, and established with
others the window plant on the More
Jonas site and afterwards had large
interest in the More-Jonas hollow
ware plant.
Some months ago Mr.. Allen was
stricken with Brights' disease and
notwithstanding the best attention
was given him he was afforded no re-
lief and he died Sunday night.
Mr.. Allen married daughter of the
late John Schenck, she surviving him.
The funeral will occurred Wednesday
afternoon.

Gray for This Fall.
Gray Is to be worn for autumn. A hint
of what the fall fashions will be was en-
bodied in a very fetching gown Of silver
gray cloth to be worn by lady who is
making early preparations for round OF
autumn house parties. A deep founce of
chenille dotted taffeta formed the only
trimming of the skirt. On the founce ap-
peared deep appliqued irises, the Velning
of the leaves outlined in jewels and the
edges handsomely embroidered. The blouse
of chenille dotted taffeta was also embroid-
ered the sleeves showing slight modifica-
ton of the prevailing style, for the under
sleeve had cuff formed by shirring, while
the portion of the sleeve above the cuff
had a full puff that spread below into
graceful frill.
Embroidered linen and pompadour lou
isine made another handsome model frock
Jeweled clasps on the corsage held in place
a striking arrangement of the embroidered
bertha.
Beautiful effects in what are called au-
tumn leaf shades attract great attention
1 am told in the shops, where they are
most exploited, that these colors will have
the preference for fall wear. They are
rich and soft and look well on almost all
women. Appliqued trimmings Of silk in
carefully elaborated patterns are the favor
ite decoration for cloth costumes.
In Rainbow Hues.
Stockings in all hues of the rainbow are
to be seen on pretty ankles. The late ruling
that hose must match the frock needs to
be trifie modified, as little of the foot
wear is of one color. For instance, electric
blue and black or cherry and black will be
combined in very fetching notifications.
The craze for sheer hosiery of the OPEN
work sort has happily been corrected, and,
although the stockings are dazzling in color
and often elaborate in pattern, they are
usually sensbly thick. Black hose covered
with embroidered white polka dots or Smi-
lar designs are much admired
Wool nuns veiiings in pastel shades,
cashmeres, cheviots, covert, camels hair
and mohair are assured of representation
among the faShiona BILE frOckS of the fall.
Trimmed with borders of appliqued silk,
shaded in tints and arranged in arabeSqueS,
the effect is very rich.
Cheap, but Artistic.
The wearing of jewelry, particularly
bracelets has been marked this season.
An Improvement in taste in this matter is
to be observed, for the designs of even the
cheaper qualities are artistic. The revival
English court mourning, these stones being
among those which are considered correct
for wear by the aristocrats who are gov
erned by royal etiquette. The fact that
Queen Alexandra is fond of the gems has
also partly influenced the fashionables in
selecting them. 1t is striking fact that
pearls are or have been the favored stones
OF the most beautiful and perhaps the most
unhappy royal women of Europe. The dow
ager empress of Russia, sister of the En-
glish queen. the present Empress of Rus
sia, Queen Margherita of Italy and the I'M

A Mil1iner's Trick.

Does your mirror do you justice? You
may think not. Or perhaps you would like
it to flatter you just little. If SO, you can
arrange it SO that the glass will reflect in
a more complimentary manner than usual.
If you do, you only have to know the mil
liners Oldest secret, and the thing is done.
Did you ever notice the softest drapery
Of pure white hung about mirror? That
is the trick.
After your mirror Of faultless glaze is
thoroughly polished, frame 1t in pure white
gauze, with the material gathered in the
center at the top and falling wavelike on
either side Then notice the effect. The
true tints of the complexion will be there
little emphasized. The expression of the
countenance, the light of the eye, the color
Of the hair, will be accurately reflected, all
softened and made more harmonious than
your mirror showed them before the gauze
was used. You may believe that that subtle
bit OF white material makes the glass tell
nearer the truth than it did without it.

Stylish Hats.

On millinery all sorts Of flowers are used,
roses perhaps being the favorites, from the
tiny Banksia specimens to the beautiful La
France. while some exclusiveomodels boast
large sprays of hydrangea in various col
ortngs. AS rule, this latter flower dis
appears with the early summer, but it has
found great popularity this.ssummer and
promises to remain with us for some little
time to come.
The toreador hat has been revived for
travelling, but 1t shows very little trimming,
indeed-in fact nothing more than rosette
of very soft satin and couple of quilts.
This shape is not universally becoming, but
1t is really smart when properly adjusted.
The newest toque of all appears to be a
plateau shape folded in two, the principal
trimming, generally wreath Of flowers
yelled In tu1le, being found between the two
Drims, with bow Of velvet ribbon at the
back resting on the hair. The ordinary
plateau shape continues as popular as ever.

Mink is one of those furs that moths like
very much indeed. In this case they had
worked steadily for long, quiet months, and
their work had been thorough. That sort
of thing is pretty likely to happen if the
moth miller gets a chance to deposit her
eggs before the fur woolen article has
been put away or if it has not been well

There is really nothing that more delights
a moth than a spot of some kind on a WOOL

everything is clean when it is put away for
summertime. Dresses, like furs, should be
hung for some hours in the open air and
sunlight. An old or partially worn-out bind
ing should by no means be left on the bot
tom of the skirt because of the dust that
must inevitably be lurking behind it. Cedar
chips put into trunks and bureau drawers
are fairly good moth preventives.

PARIS, August "a, 1901.
The small accessories of dress at this sea-
son absorb our attention to an extent out
of all proportion to their intrinsic value.
About this time each year we are more
than trife tired of summer wardrobes

poets of gowns in any way that fash

monotOnOus in the appearance of the same
woman in the same gown or set of gowns

press our friends with our brilliancy or
originality under such unfavorable circum-
stances. One of the most successful de-
vices for making an old frock look new is
to apply to it one of the charming accessO-
ries in the shape of a deep fancy collar, a
handsome bOlero, a graceful ceinture or a
becoming sleeve trimming.
For the benefit of those who have frockS
in need of refurbishing let me mention a
few of the devices employed with success
at the moment in Paris.
One of these is a handsome bOlero made
of alternate bands of ribbon velvet and lace
insertion. Each band terminates in point

appearance of being Scalloped. The elbow

NEW YORK, September 5, 1901.
Autumn styles show a tendency toward
extremes in picturesqueness. long-tailed
coats with cavalier effects bidding for
popularity and -brimmed hats run
ming toward a plumed extravaganza that
seems almost stage like. With it all
revival is predicted of the gold and silver
threaded brocades of the days of sedan
chairs and powdered wigs, and, as If in
anticipation of this possibility, there are
already guipures as stiff as if cut out of
metal with tinsel embroideries while cameo
brooches set in gemmed frames are offered
for the pinning of rich lace cravats.
This splendor all borrows from royal
periods, one closely fitting coat, with Grim
suming the title Louis XIII. Other DASH

alier cuffs wrist frills and cravats. sug-
gest the reigns of the later Louis, and
since they adj display materials and garni-
lures too magnificent for the common
world there is no danger of their being
vulgarized.

Hand Embroidery Everywhere.
1t is astonishing what a quantity of
hand work one sees on street clothes
nowadays. Everywhere one comes across
bits of the most elaborate embroidery, in
vests, cuffs and collars, black being in
troduced with deep reds, blues and yell
lows with superbIy decorative results
