ADDICKS And COTERIE

In the Addicls headquarters, at Fifth

at 8 o'clock sharp. fifty-seven mixed

The Art Of lriSsing

The art of dressmaling has reached
a degree Of perfection this year it has
never before attained. An artistic ef-
feet is aimed for and in many instan-
ces gained: the so-called picturesque
is made becoming, not merely pleasing
to the artistic idea. but with the ad-
dition OF a practical and at the same
time up-to-date look, which is most
attractive. There are. with the ex-
ception of the tailor-made gowns,
very few styles that are severe and
hard in outline, a graceful figure be-
ing suggested rather than revealed by
the gown. Soft. clingy materials are
tremendously in demand, while light
colors and quantities of lace appear to
be inseDarable.
India. foulard and pongee silks (all
much alike in texture) are used for
morning, afternoon and evening gowns.
and this in the face of the often re-
peated statement that foulard silks are
not fashionable this season. A most
charming and dainty gown of white
India silk is the favorite this season.
The skirt has long lines of tucks at
the sides. and around the foot of the
skirt are bands of lace entre-deux,
which do not go around the skirt in
unbroken lines, but have spaces left
between. The waist is in fiat tucks.
with plain round yoke on which are
again bands of the lace entre-deux.
The front of the waist has bands of
the entre-deux and is laced with black
velvet ribbon.
Batiste and lawn, lace and indeed
all thin fabrics ore fashionable. A
pale blue chiffon with embroidery of
white and blue is among the novelties.
and is exquisitely light and dainty.
A favorite model is made with skirt
that has crossed bands Of broad vel
low lace The upper part of the skirt
is in narrow tucks. and the entire
waist is tucked, the tucks held in place
by the yellow lace entre-deux. Tucked
sleeves. left full below the elbow. are
gathered into a lace cuff. This same
mouel is made up in bastiste-white
of palest yellow.
Crepe de chine is still in favor. and
is certainly a most satisfactory ma
terial. for nothing wears better. For
ordinary everyday waists the dark
crepe de chine is used while the most
elaborate or evening gowns are made
of tho light colors. A very charming
gown of white is embroidered with
heavy white silk embroidery and lace
medallions.

FARMERS CHANGING CROPS
Fields Of Corn Will Replace ENpanse Of
Waving Wheat

II the weather is favorable there will
be an immense yield of corn this year.
as farmers have planted a large acre
age in that grain. Half Of the farms
In Chester county seem 10 be planted
nearly all with corn. This has been
brought about by the wheat crops be-
ing ruined by the heavy storm. which
washed the wheat out of the ground.
Those who could not save tine crop
plowed up the wheat, and in its place
substituted corn.
The price of corn is about seventy
cents bushcl at the present time aud
many farmers are expecting it TO ga
to 81.
The greater part of the corn will be
late this year on account of the pres
ent cool weather.
