Odd Fellows County Picnic.

Corunna, Sept. 1.-The Odd Fell

success, judging from the enthusiasm
manifested. There was a good crowd
for the first picnic held for a numbef

OF Owosso, who was elected chairman
for the day. He stated the object OK
the gathering and introduced Mrs,

a asplendid address On the objects and
aims of the order and showed that he

At this point there was some mis-,

speaker, for he had declared at the
dinner table that he was "full." But
to clear all doubts as TO the results DR.,
Mccormick was called to the rostrun
in case of an emergency. When Rev.
O. FL. Hanks was introduced he de-
clared that he was perfectly at ease
now that the doctor was so near Dy,

address.
Mrs. Julia Preston, of Elsie, also
gave an address. She was followed

Resolved, BY the Odd Fellows OF

Curdy Park this tenth day of Septem.

meeting that the people OF Corupna
ought not to bear all the expense Of
the care OF this beautiful park thai
has been so generously donated by the
Hon. Hugh McCurdy for public
purposes, therefore,
Resolved, That we suggest to the
supervisors Of our county that 1T would
be an act, worthy of our splendid
county that they appropriate a sum
actually sufficient to pay for the proper
care OF the park, and place it in the
hands Of the park commission to bs
used by them for the proper care Of
the park, so that the whole people OK
the county may feel that they have on
interest in the we'll being of the most
beautiful park in the state outside Of

Took Jury to Vernon.

The case of William Maudlin, of Ver-
non township, VS. the Union Telephone
Company, of Owosso, has been on trial
in the circuit court nearly all the week.
Maudlin wants heavy damages for
alleged malicious prosecution.
The telephone company had gang of
men working towards Durand with a
pair of wires last fall. In front of
Maudlin's place it was found necessary
to cut through some shade trees.
Maudlin ordered the workmen out of
the trees, enforcing his demands 10y
hourishing a rifle. John G.. Barrett,
foreman, had the farmer arrested for
assault and battery, and while the hear
ing was taking place in Justice Nc
Caughnas court, the wires were rushed
through his trees. Maudlin bases his
claim of malicious prosecution on this,
although the company discontinued the
suit and paid the costs.
Dennis McManus, sub foreman, re-
ceived four hours imprisonment for con-
tempt of court, Wednesday He became
excited, after giving his testimony, by
an argument between the lawyers, and
disregarded the courts repeated warn
ing to keep still, shouting advice across
the room to both attorneys impartially.
The evidence was all in Thursday
evening, and today Undersheriff Case
took the jurors to Vernon, where they
will view the trees said to have been
damaged.

Trinkets Sparkle With Jewels

Enamelled watches are lovely enough to
warrant the large prices asked for them.
The tiny enamelled spheres are usually sus-
pended from a clasp that is a cut-out de-
sign, matching that decorating the back.
One of the prettiest of these watches is of
clouded blue enamel, ornamented with a
sapphire heart surrounded with pearls. The
pin is larger heart-shaped sapphire of ex-
quisite cut, and is made more attractive by
a row of sparkling brilliants set around its
edge.
Sapphires and amethysts run the gamut of
blue and lavender shades, and when these
stones are used to ornament watches the
cases are generally cnamelled In a tint just
a bit lighter. For half mourning there is a
little timepiece in smooth French gray
enamel, trimmed and set with grayish white
pearls. The design represents a crown
through which are thrust gray and black
plumes, each tiny web of which is so deli
cately wrought that the beauty is appre-
ciated only upon examination through a mi
croscope. The case Of another small watch
is made from one solid piece Of polished tur

bands, to say nothing of the lovely model
supplied with no less than a dozen. Such
novelties are intended especially for tho
carriage. They come in soft French kid,
each tiny strap may have a cut steel or jet
buckle slipped on its center With stockings
of light shade or white, these dressy shoes
are quite as lovely as anything to be found
in footwear.
VOGUE OF SATIN SHOES.
Black satin shoes and slippers are to en-
. joy d remarkable vogue this winter. Moth
ing is prettier on the feet than this
terlal, and it trims up beautifully, as in the
new Colonial design, with its broad pointed
tongue thickly incrusted with cut steel
beads. Those who like more elaborate or
namentation may add cut-steel trimmings
to the short satin vamp, and further dec
crate this effective slipper with a small
glittering buckle to match the beads. Occa-
sionally these dainty bits of satin are
worked in colors. Frequently, too, flowers
ard fruits have been painted ON tongue and
vanp with great success. If one wishes to
be extreme, the stockings also may be
painted to match. One of the charms of this
shoe is the delightful way it shows off Il
pretty stocking covering a well rounded
ankle, and nowadays stockings are quite as
important as the shoes themselves
The latest novelties in hosiery confine the
decoration more to the side than the front
of the ankle, and the embroidery suggests
elaborate clockings, combined with lace
work.
Evening stockings have large oval medal
lions of Chantilly lace let in over the instep
and this cobwebby mesh Is further en-
HANGED by embroidery or palette effects.
The white are perhaps the prettiest of ALL
yet the fact that stockings to match the
gown still obtain has resulted in the offer
ing of MANY DELIGHTFUL DatternS in all the
delicate tints.
Monograms and fancy embroidery de-
signs, especially those that consist of flow
ers, are popular, and it has become Il fad
for the up-to-date young woman to choose
Il certain flower, and have her silk stock
ings worked in sprays and tiny clusters
of it.

Novelties In China.

An effective ware, made in Naples, that
was brought out last year in flower de-
signs, comes this season with life-size dec
orations of fruit and foliage in the natural
colors-green and purple grapes, apples
peaches and bananas. Another ornamen-
tai ware in brilliant coloring which comes
for jardinieres, vases, bowls, tea sets and
in numberless odd pieces for various uses
is made in a small pottery in Scotland.
The decorations are hand-painted, and the
ornamentation is of red roses and green
leaves in large figures on a dark back
ground, desirable foil to the bright deco
ration.
Beer 1lugs for college men decorated
with different college colors and emblems
will make appropriate holiday gifts.
Among the new toilet sets one finds a
chocolate-colored ware that is quaint in de-
sign and desirable in every way. Most Of
the water jugs of the year have slender
shapes, with small tops, but these come in
square shapes, and the decoration is an old
Dutchman dressed in his Holland costume.
with lantern over his shoulder. There
is glimpse of a house and street in the
foreground, and the motto is, ''Watchman,

Let the woman who must be modiSh on
a small income take heart, for here is one
hint in regard to winter millinery that Is
certainly worth knowing about. In the
first place, it is as we'll to inform her that
mapped hats-those beautiful, soft, 1uHy
affairs, broad of brim and low of crown
are going to be worn more than ever this
season, and herein lies the economical
womans opportunity. Perhaps she will not
grasp the full Importance of this announce
ment, but if she has ever attempted TO
trim one of these becoming CONNECTIONS
she will realize at once all that the fash
ionable fad means to the owner of slen-
der income. To the uninitiated let US say
that there is no easier style of hat to trim
than these shaggy beavers, for one thing,
because they require so little in the way
Of fancy ornamentation, and in the hands
of a novice the result is usually so thor
oughly satisfactory that she is apt to over
estimate her artistic ability in the MILL
merry line.
The first thing to do if you intend get
ting one Of these pretty and rich looking
hats at comparatively small cost is to Sc
lect mapped one of extra good quality.
Be particular as to this, for a cheap hat
will not last out a season. The clerk will
probably inform you that only the i'm
ported beavers are really durable, but the
chances are that all his hats began their
existence in this particular form in a small
Connecticut town, for there is a factory
there where beautiful beaver hats are
turned out in large quantities, not by the
thousands as other hats are made, be-
cause mapped hats are more difficult to
make than plain felts. This is one of the
chief reasons for the large prices demand
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1902-09-28

ed for them by most milliners. Then, too,
the richness of the hat requires trimming
of suitable elegance, and before you know
it the cost of the hat has advanced far be-
yond your expectations.
However, if you are not compelled to con-
slider the extra expense for trimming ana
are gifted with a degree of deXterlty IN
the way of imparting style, you may make
Yourself the loveliest kind of winter
head covering with scarcely any work
Beaver hats are of themselves ornamen-
tai, and frequently long, graceful plumes
are a sufficient addition to convert them
into chic models.
Now that rosettes, tiny choux and fancy
knots may be bought in the shops ready to
use upon hats, it is a simple matter to
combine some of these effective trimmings
with wings or feathers. Fflmy fabrics are
hardly suited to this style of hat, and it is
much better taste to keep to the idea Of
richness.
Besides the ostrich tips andplumes, which
are always good style, there are soft,
downy marabout feathers, which give a
graceful beauty to beavers Sometimes
these are used with velvet Ribbons as in
the illustration.
Nothing could be lovelier than one of
these shaggy hats in a rich, deep brown,
suggesting Russian sable in it's tint,
trimmed with one long, curling plume, fas-
tened with knots of velvet shading from
burnt orange to dark reddish brown. This
vivid shade of yellowish red is one of the
fashionable notes Of the autumn, and in
velvet it is particularly handsome.
Mapped hats are almost always large and
built on picturesque lines. TO secure this
effect frequently one side of the brim is

quoise. The pin is exactly the same, except
in regard to size, and both are set with good
sized diamonds.
Brooches come in many designs, though
in general effect the round shapes seem to
be best liked. There are turquoise and en-
erald matrix ones finished with designs of
red OR brown Burmese gold the solid CEN
ter frequently showing an effective rim
of overlapping baroque pearls. These oddly
shaped pearls are more popular than ever.
Heretofore it was sufficient to utilize them
siDgly or in small clusters fashioned as
pendants, but the latest designs are large
and are composed entirely Of these irregular
bits of iridescent formation.

for ordinary walking and rainy day wear
the Cuban still holds It's own. It would be
difficult to find prettier and trimmer style
IMAM this one, and even the military, which
IS frequently confused with the higher and
narrower type, finds few admirers. With
comparatively short skirts it is absolutely
essential that the shoes, and particularly
the heels, should look as trim as posi-
pie, hence the popularity Of the Cuban.
upon their first appearance these heels
were so suggestive of plumed cavaliers that
1t was difficult to disassociate them from
clfnking spurs and slashed high boot tops,
but now we have grown SO accustomed to
the shape that already we consider them
as belonging exclusively to US.
TRIM RIDING BOOTS.
Riding boots are for the most part black,
always so for winter wear, and patent
leather makes the prettiest boot, though
many prefer softer kid in unfinished
, black. 1t is more satisfactory to have these
boots made to order, and they should be as
comfortable as possible, with no ornamental
tion whatever. High Cuban heels impart
the desired air Of trimness that such boots
require.
When it comes to dainty mules and ex-
quisite dancing slippers there are more nov
elites to chronicle, and the choice at hand is
larger by thousands than of the more con-
ventional article.
Mules either match or contrast prettily
with the house gown, and almost invariably
there is no counter. Dull black vamps are
we'll liked, especially if the medium Louis
Quinze heel is in bright red, pink, blue, gold
or silver. Occasionally the front is orna-
mented with large butterfly bows of velvet
to match tho color Of the heel, and in the
center of each bow there may be small
cut steel or jeweled buckle. Somewhat sim

1t Is time for the feminine mind to turn
from the doubtful charms of perilouy Louis
heels and Tapping bows and contemplate,
for a while at least sturdy boots and stout
shoes made especially for the severe weather
we may expect during the winter. Pebble
goat, box calf and rainproof soles are less
interesting than high-heeled satin slippers
and the latest thing in strapped sandals, but
we must take the bitter with the sweet, and,
besides, there are many days coming when
strong shoes with thick soes and good,
fiat heels will prove to be the best invest
ment in this department of things femi-
nine.
THREE NEW POINTS.
Though it will be sometime before low
shoes are put away altogether, many high
pairs are being bought every day, and it is
pleasure to note that with shoes, as with
all ready-to-wear articles of clothing, manu-
facturerS are not content to sit back and
think that they have reached perfection in
style,and fit. In the case of footwear three
points Of improvement are already being
commented upon. These are in the snug yet
comfortable fit of the heel, the moderate
drop to the toe and new sole that GER
tainly strikes one as unusual at first sight.
This possesses Il remarkable curve, while
the inner line appears to be perfectly
straight from tip to arch. 1t is supposed to
be in exact accordance with the shape of the
foot and has been generally adopted after
due elaboration as well as careful expert
menting. With such a straight line on the
inside of the sole, naturally the other side
displays a very decided curve. This broad
ems gracefully and m0dishly from a toe that
may be classed as medium, for it Is neither
the pointed one we rather expected nor the
blunt one that desire for change might have
forced upon us. Shoes that fit well in the
heels are somewhat difficult to find; usually
they feel too snug or too loose either Of
which characteristic makes walking uncom-
Portable, but for this season we are offered
perfection in this respect.
Drop toes have been questionable fash
ion, chiefly on account of the fact that to
wear them one had to select at least one

VALUE OF PUSH.

Once upon a time there was certain
man who had the reputation of being sue
ceSSful.
In his reaching out he pushed aside every
obstacle. If persons stood between him
and his desire he pushed them away with
his hands, and if they lay in his path he
pushed them off with his feet
His consideration for everyone who i'm
peded his progress was a push, and the re-
suit was that he accumulated great wealth.
Moral: 1t is push that wins success.

lent opportunity for the use of dropping
feathers, or, when such are the fashion,
clusters of velvety petalled flowers.
On the third hat in the illustration little
ornameutation is disposed on the top of the
hat; in fact, it consists of silk scarf
drawn in simple folds across the crown
and fastened under the tilted side of the
brim with roses to match the shade of the
hat. From these flowers start sprays of
beautiful paradise plumage, which mingle
