Light Gowns Fashionable

Light gowns for house wear are now
far more fashionable than those in
dark colors. and while handsome
black is never out of place, If intended
for house, unless one is wearing morn
ing, must needs be elaborately trim
med and fashioned so that there may
be nothing sombre about its appear
ance. Last Summers afternoon gowns
are most useful for this sort of wear
and after all it is not such an imprac-
tical fashion, for it is far better TO
keep on wearing a gown until il is
shabby and worn and then get a new
one rather than to spend time and
money in constantly freshening or re-
modelling clothes
Yelling and crepe de Chine gowns,
especially the latter, make most charm
ing and useful gowns for the house. and
are just as suitable for winter as sum
mer, but are far smarter i'm white and
extremely light shades. They may be
deliberately trimmed with lace and by
varied tucks and pleats give the effect
of trimming. The bands Of velvet rib
bon that made so fashionable a trim
ming on the yelling gowns this summer
are not so Appropriate for them now. but
there are some of the light shades of
tan, pink or blue, and always white.
that do not look badly with the rows of
velvet ribbon just around the foot of
the skirt, sleeves and the front Of the
waist.

Members OF the Union League are

Boys High School was dedicated. The

guests, among whom was Mr.. Baer.
"Ah. Dir. Baer, / am delighted TO

A voternn noorl,nener.

A statesman recently on a business
trip TO this city gave it as his opinion
that the importance Of the men Of ma
tional affairs and their relation to the
government and its service can be de
termined in no better fashion than
by observing the actions Of Ross, the
veteran colored doorkeeper TO the pri-
vate Office Of the postmaster general
Ross has been in the government serv-
ice for many years and has served un-
der several postmaster generals. He
knows every man Of prominence in the
country, and they all know and respect
him. 1t is said that the importance Of
any person can be gauged by the man
ner in which he is greeted by this priv
ileged individual. Ross IS said to be all
that stands between the postmaster
general and nervous prostration. and
he has certainly earned such a reputa-
ton. He has guarded his charge care
fully from all intruders for many years
and has turned away many persons
whose business with the head of the
post office department could be Just a,
easily transacted with some one else
Ross is the firm friend Of all the news
paper men that visit the department
and he Is never more polite and at.
tentlve than when answering their
questions and arranging for interviews
between them and his chief.-Washing-
