THE NEW FLAT COLLARS.
up-to-Dnte Dressmakers Are Putting
Them ON Spring Foul
ards.

The fashionable French dressmaker
is trying to force the fiat collar,
reasonably arguing that it is the
proper companion for the 1860 sleeve.
An extremely ingratiating model OF
the newest Partisan neck decoration
is shown in stitched taffeta over
which fiat circlet of ribbon thread
ed lace is laid. For such collar a
many-looped knot of ribbons or a
quaint cameo brooch is the proper
finish, says the Washington Star.
Quite the nearest approach to the
fat collar we have reached on this
side is graceful rolling lace neck
band, which does not rise very high
under ears and chin, and is shaped
in front in two long points finished
with tassels of white silk floss fall
ing from little balls of gilt. This
and the aforementioned type of col
lar are destined to play prominent
part in the completion of the fonlards
and sweet summer cloths already
making springtime in the show win
dows.
Our American spring and summer,
and the pretty round throats of our
women are persuasive agents in the
popularization of the low and easy
neck finish. For the present, how
ever, high and ornamental stocks and
scarfs have the field to themselves.
Only the extremely fashionable wom-
en- who fiount their new plumage well
in advance of every season are swatt-
ing their throats in stitched chokers
of white satin with wing backs of a
contrasting shade of panne. All the
narrow string ties of satin clasping
the base of the choker in front dis
play jeweled ferrets on their ends.
Such modish little stock in white,
mouse gray, gilt and. sapphire blue
is iIlustratedih the group along with
powerful rival in black and peach
pink satin. The black satin top shows
delicate vermicelli pattern of gold
thread and the lower tightly drawn
pink satin half is drawn about the
stock twice, fastened with smart little
gilt pins in front, and, after tying
in four-in-hand bow, let's fall two
broad ends, fringed and embroidered
in gilt.
No less attractive than any of the
other patterns shown is fichu neck
tie that has been introduced for adop-
ton with some of the pretty spring
time waists.
1t is no more nor less than an extra
long lace barbe upon which straps
of black bebe velvet ribbon are APP
piled and made fast with ornamental
gilt or jewel set buttons.

GARF|ELD'S
FRIEND
Celebrated His Birthday
at Mt. Union.
ILLNESS OF WIFE
Int rfered With . Program That
Has Been Carried Out for
Years--A Famous
EvanqeIist.

One Of the most prominent, not 20
county, is Rev. Harrison Jones, of Mt.
Union, near Alliance, who is spending
the declining years of his life in his
quiet home with his estimable wife,
who has been the partner of his joys
and sorrows for many years. On Sat-
urday Mr.. Jones celebrated his SSth
birthday in quiet way. For many
years past the birthday has been celc-
brated in more ostentatious manner.
His brother, Isaiah Jones, who resides
at Granville, o., was born on the same
day of the same month, and Is now SO
years Of age II has been the custom
of these brothers to celebrate their
birthdays together and for many years
these gatherings have been looked for
ward to with more than the pleasure
with which the birthday OF the average
person is anticipated. This year, how
ever, the wife of Harrison Jones lay
stricken by illness, and it was neces-
sary to forego the usual celebration,
which has alternatea between the
homes of the two brothers.
The brothers are both ministers in
the Disciple church, and have laborei
for years in the vineyard of the Mas
ter, accomplishing much for the uplift-
ing of humanity. Harrison Jones was
chaplain in the Union army being at
tached 10 the regiment of Colonel Gar
field, afterwards president of the Unit
ed States. Young Garfield mustered his
regiment from Hiram, Hudson and Bed
ford. Mr.. Jones lived at the latter
place and Garfield solicited him to be-
come chaplain of the regiment, which
post he accepted. serving faithfully and
with valor throughout the war.
During Mr.. Joness younger days he
was member of an organization known
as the Quintinkle club, which had,
among its members, Garfield, Mrs. DR..
Robinson, of Mentor, and Isaiah Jones,
| it was agreed that Harrison Jones, ii
| living, should officiate at the funerals
of the other members. 1t was on this
account and also because of the fact
| that he had been for many years q
warm personal friend of General Gar
| field, that he officiated as assistant a.
/ the funeral of Garfield in Cleveland,
after the bullet of the assassin had
stricken him down.
! Harrison Jones is warm-hearted,
Christian man. beloved by his neigh
bors and friends, and at his birthday
anniversary celebration Saturday,
many offered their congratulations and
wished him many more years of life,
and also expressed the hope for the
speedy recovery of his good wife. He
is still hale and hearty, though he has
not been actively engaged in his field
OF labor for few years past. He is
a famous evangelist in the church, and
is known from one end of the country
to the other in religious circles.
