"An American Hustler" at Swishers
Theatre April 1st headed by the
man you all know, George f. Hall.
Gan American Hustler" the new
farcical comedy selected by George
F. Hall for his fourth annual star
ring tour, has proven the biggest
success that the popular comedian
has ever had. The play is built on
farcical lines, and at the same time
there is a consistent well defined
plot to hold the interest throughout.
Mr.. Hall will be surrounded by
first class company in everv respect,

If judgment may be formed from the
quantities of maiden millinery now oc-
cupying smart dressmakers. September
is primarily a month for school girls.
Everywhere, in some for or other, their
Wardrobes are displayed, the boarding
school trousseau in many cases includ-
ing such trifies as handkerchiefs and
wash stocks.
The existence of these details in such
places is explained by the fact that
they are made to match special bod
ices or costumes. Blouse waists in silk,
linen or wool will have the white linen
or silk stock and cuffs to be worn with
them embroidered in the color of the
bodice. Delightful little hAndkerchiefs
of fine linen show narrow borders and
monograms in delicate colors, and 9TH
ers of French null for more festive
use are edged with laces in simple pat
terms. These are designed for the
dances which inaugurate most school
openings, and which occur at scattered
intervals during all the term.
As to the dance frocks themselves,
never did maiden finery more charm
ingly preserve school girl traditions
while bending to the demand of lux
urious period. However rich the ma
terial of the evening gown, or large
the amount of handwork expended up
on 1t, a girlish simplicity is always
striven for in the general effect. This
is, in turn, emphasized by many child
ish details, such as wide ribbon sashes,
ribbon bandeaux In the coiffure, and
large bows on the slippers. Then, as
the majority of these gala maiden
frocks are in virgin white, the ingen-
uous air prescribed by fashion is in
tensified and its becomingness increas-
ed tenfold.
The French models in evening
gowns displayed by the children's
outfitters for school girls shows more
costumes in color than in white. But
only the palest tints are employed
azures as faint as the sky of a perfect
June day, pale corn, yellows and wild
rose pinks.

AFTER MANY DAYS

plaintive Scotch ballad to her mother,
and at the end of the song, as 1t died
away in soft modulations, a knocking
at the door--the door leading from the
dining room onto the side porch.
Mrs. Patton answered it herself. A
man was standing in the shadow of
the porch-a man who asked for food.

They'll be after the heels of my
old boots next" plaintively said a deal
er in old watches. after he had parted
with as MANY as thirty excellent ex-
amples of cocks for the minimum price
of six cents apiece. The woman who
bought them was of fashionable repu-
tation, and afterwards described the in
cident as the raid of her life"
In the craze which now exists for
old watch clocks and the making of
them into such ornaments as girdles.
chains. bangles and scarfpins, the
proverbial cleverness OF Dame FASH
ion is verified. There is much orig
inality in the fad. From bits of dis
carded mechanisms hitherto regarded
as useless, quaint and semi barbaTic
pieces OF decorative jewelry have been
made.
The so-called cock of watch is the
round, fiat and usually fiigree piece
of metal which was used to shield the
handspring of ancient watches-those
which went out with the advent of the
more convenient stemWinder. 1t usu-
ally held the largest jewel which the
works boasted, and its claim to beauty
rested solely on the popularity of its
design.
From watches long since laid away
with other relics of departed ances-
tors, these cocks are now being taken.
As however even the most lucky of
inheritors would hardly possess
sufficiently large number of them to
form girdle, a long chain, or even u
bangle, the search is often continued
through some watchmaker's drawer
of discarded things.
The fad is not confined to women.
But only the larger, jewelled cocks
are desired by men, who appreciate
their uniqueness and know they may
easily be made into artistic scarfpins.
In fastening the cocks together for
chains or bangles, small metal rings
are used. 1t is customary to have the
whole ornament regilded or dipped in
silver, according to the taste of the
wearer. Only those with money to
burn make a point of having them
washed with gold.
