In almost every neighborhood some
one has died from an attack of collie

FASCINATING DINNER JACKETS.
Are Stylish and Can Be Worn With
any Skirt.

Those fascinating little dinner jack
cts, which are really an economy rath-
er than an extravaganza, since they
can be worn with almost any kind of
a skirt, those chic little garments find
their best expression in the pale color
velvets.
A Fifth avenue house, which claims
the distinction of gowning the majority
of the good dressers on the stage, was
showing some of these last week in
pale yellow, in turquoise. which shaded
on the green rather than the blue, in
apricot, and in a beautiful shade of
pinkish mauve-just that color which
we see in the orchid, which is known
botanically as Crypidendum, and
which must be seen to be appreciated.
All of these little jackets were trim
med fifth real old laces of the pale
creamy tint, which tones in so we'll
with the velvet pile. They were one
and all built upon the Louis Seize
lines, with broad revers, fancy vest,
handsome buttons and a flowing half
sleeve finished with tiny ruffies of chif-
fon or lace.

The pinkish mauve one referred to had

in having the undersleeve of the lase

What Do You Do With Old Magazines

= Hundreds of magazines, read or
partly read by one person only, are
destroyed without thought. Yet, what
good they could do in the world If
they were collected and put into in
situations for the sick, the children and
the social delinquent.
Whenever you buy a magazine have
in mind some other use for it than the
pleasure you get out of it. If you
cannot well keep them until you have
enough to send to some institution, you
can, at least, give them to some one
who cannot afford to buy reading mat
ter. A travelling librarian you become,
and so, public benefactor.
Besides, what right has any one to
the selfish personal enjoyment Of a
thing which has been made by say a
hundred persons. A magazine, a pa
per, a book, is the work of men who
labor together. The result of their
labor should be enjoyed by men to-
gether.
Let each magazine you buy bring
with 1t a social desire for enjoyment.

About Phoenix People

The prediction that the season this
winter would be lively one is certain
ly proving true if we can judge from
the number of hops given. The East
ern Star ball Friday evening was a
brilliant success. The O'Neill, though
rather large for artistic decoration, was
a bower of evergreen and roses. One
end of the hall was divided from the
main room by palms and the punch
tables within were covered with smi-
lax and roses. On the west side about
the middle, the orchestra was installed
behind an array of palms of various
kinds. The lights were shaded by jack
olanterns. giving a subdued and mel
low effect.
The scene was added to by the beau
tiful costumes, the pretty gowns of the
misses, of white. pink and blue ming
ling with the elegant gowns of the ma
irons, added to the other daintiness and
elegance. The ball opened about nine
o'clock with the Phoenix social world in
attendance, lasting into the wee
hours" The following committees are

To Freshen Mayonnaise.

Do not throw away a mayonnaise
sauce because careless handling has
caused it to curdle. Take a fresh dish,
preferably a soup plate, chill it on the
ice, and pick up" the mayonnaise by
this simple process. Stir together a
few drops of cold water and a little
dry mustard. Dip the fork into the
curdled sauce and stir it a very little
at a time into the mustard and water.
Proceed cautiously, stirring rapidly
and wei each time the fork is dipped
into the curdled mixture. The result
will be a perfect mayonnaise.
