A Huge Success.

The hourly trains between New York and
Philadelphia via the New Jersey Central have
not only proven great success, but have
met the demands OF the travelling public in
every instance. Hourly trains were indeed
an up-to-date move, and when the schedule
l. fast, the stops few. and the time so con-
venient to remember Ga train every hour and
on the hour, there is no wonder at the hit
they made. The New Jersey Central is trap
rock ballasted. the rails are new and heavy,
the trains are the latest models, lighted by
gas, the aisles carpeted. the attendants cour-
teous. hard coal is used exclusively, hence
no dust, cinders or smoke. Every Philadel-
phia train has a modern Pullman attached,
and such conveniences serve to make the
New Jersey Central the model railroad OF
the world. II you want time tables or other
information, write TO G. VI. Burt, Genl Pass.

Sensible Outing Costume.


For several seasons we have had out
Ing suits made Of lightweight cloth
intended especially for summer wear,
but those developed in wash fabrics,
finished in tailor style, are entirely
new. The shirt waists in these suits
are severely plain. and the skirts reach
TO the ankles, giving the freedom that
Is desirable when long walks or outing
excursions are anticipated.
The costume illustrated in the large
drawing is made of light green galatea,
stitched in black.
Two deep pleats extend from shoul-
der 10 belt in the back. The waist is
smoothly adjusted between these pleats
and under the arms.
The waist closes In front with pearl
buttons and button-holes worked
through the centre box pleat. Three
deep pleats are arranged on the shoul-
ders: the front one is stitched all the
way. and the stitching in the others
terminates half way down, providing
fulness that forms a stylish blouse over
the belt.
The sleeves are shaped with inside
seams only. At the lower edge they
are plain IN front and fall at the back.
where they droop gracefully over point
cd cuffs. A plain collar completes the
neck. and is trimmed with black vel
vet stock.
The upper portion OF the skirt Is a
plain yoke. fitted smoothly Iround the
waist and over the hips with small
darts The fulness ln the back Is ar
ranged In an underlying pleat at each
side Of the centre closing.
The skirt is box pleated and arranged
al the lower edge Of the yoke. The
pleais are stitched fatty for a few
inches. and pressed their entire length.
They fare widely around the bottom.
Machine stitching on the yoke and
hem provides a tailor finish. Linen.
plque. duck. mercerized ginghams and
other heavy wash fabrics are used for
suits In this style.
