The Dressing Sacque

Nothing is done I'm a dressing-sack which
cannot be done equally well IN a shirtwaist
and there f. as much freedom In a walk
ing skirt as in a pettcoat, though the
dressing-sack lady who wears her petit
coat as an outer garment would indignant
ly deny the fact says Myrtle Reed In pay
ing her respect TO the dressing sack in the
July Pilgrim.
At some indefinite stage OF the habit, the
skirt retlres in favor Of the petticoat, and
the resourceful young woman who wore a
black sateen petticoat with her shirtwaist
all through a flve-day trip on a lake
steamer, because she didn't want TO spoil
her good skirt" was doubtless a slave to
the dressing-saclx habit when she was at
home.
There may be some subtle use for clothes
the knowledge Of which Is religiously kept
from the many but on the surface OF
things IL would seem that they were made
to wear, and IL they SON too easily, houses
might be kept cleaner, at the expense OF
shopping, matinees and women.s clubs.
People are said to have their prototype,
In the animal world and there IS NOR,

THE NEW SCH. HORACE A. STONE

The four-masted schooner Horace A.
Stone, launched from the Stetson yard in
Brewer, Nov. 21st, was towed here Nov.
18th, to complete her rigging and carpen-
Ter work, as 1t was feared she might be
frozen in at Bangor. The new schooner is
1927 tons net. Her full dimensions were
given in The Journal last week. John ].
Wardwell of ROckland designed the vessel.
and her frame was gotten out under the d.
rectiOn of John Littlefeld & Son of Bangor.
She is planked and ceiled with hard pine.
and has strong frame of native hard
wood. Her standing rigging is steel. She
was well-fastened under the direction of
William Beazley of Bucksport. Her after
house is cOmmodious and luxurious. The
after cabin is finished in polished ma
hOgany and redwood and the forward cabin
in cypress. Off the captains room is a
bath room, with big porcelain tub and
open plumbing, withhot and cold water The
mahogany and redwood used was brought
from Central America by Capt. Trask some
years ago. The galley, cooks room and
mess room are in the midship house, the
engine room and fo'castle being forward.
The vessel is fitted with large wrecking
pumps and has all the appliances for hand
ling the pumps, anchors, sails and other
gear by steam. She is equipped with two
patent Baldt stockless anchors which weigh
$500 and 4,9oo, respectively. The anchors
are connected with 1SO fathoms of stud link,
II inch chain. Gardner's crew OF riggers
were at work on the vessel when the small
riggers departed and also the joiners. In
addition to comleting the rigging there is
good deal of joiner work to be done, and
Fred V. Cottrell had a crew at work on
it Friday. The schooner will probably be
here three weeks.
