Resented II.

ticing how heartily he was eating, edo
I cook as well as your mother did?"
Gerald put up his monocle and
stared at her through 1t.

need wear an unbecoming one. Try to
withstand the seductive wiles of the
girl at the millinery shop, who tells you
you look too sweet for anything in the
first queer bit of headgear mounted on
your locks, and patiently study and try
on until you achieve something that
suits your idea of becomingness. In
the variety offered, We repeat, you can
be suited.
1t cannot be said any style predom-
mates; while there are many small tur-
bans, there are also many medium-sized
sensible hats seen; while many are tilt
ed over the forehead to the imminent
danger of sliding downhill, there are
many worn at sensible center of grav-
ity. And, by the way, the tip-tilted are
really no more foolish than those mon
strosities of last season that were
poised ON the back of the head, set to
catch every passing breeze. Some fash
ion wit refers to them as the sail-boat
monstrosity pinned anywhere.
One very pleasing style obtaining
among the best dressed is that of having
the veil exactly match the hat. Yes
terday we saw a medium-sized chip of
pale lilac trimmed with softly-shaded
ribbon, and the veil the tone of the hat.
1t gave to the rather plain tailor COS
tune of light gray finish that meant
style. ~
Speaking of lightweight street
dresses, we noticed refreshing costume
one hot day last week that seems worth
description; it was a gray and cream
checked wool Of some thin material, as
cool as muslin; the skirt was quite plain
and short enough for comfort; the Elton
coat was lined with gray taffeta and
trimmed with embroidery insertion of
heavy sort. The waist was a thin white
with little inserts of real Val, gray silk

COAL FOUNDATION

tuubEth RT-FDlNP
Ohio Railroad Company must soon i
enlarge the shop facilities there and
tho ysrd capacity Will necessarily
lave to be enlarged at a very early Z
date.
Coal Is King. :
or course It Is the coal business ,
that Is at the bottom Of the prosperity T,
OF Fairmont. The coal Is there and is
very accessible. The demand for 1t
lis growing and 1t will be hundreds OF
years before 1t has been exhausted.
It is not the oil boom town OF a short
duration. The fact that the coal Is
there without a long haul makes It
cheap as q fuel for the manufacturers
and this with the cheap gas there has
been attracting the attention of the
manufacturers from all sections Of the
country. The price OF gas to the do.
nestle trade there is sixteen cents
with a discount Of two per cent.
While the Baltimore and Ohio Rail
road Company has everything Its own
!, way a. Fairmont, it has at all times
i been giving the people there excellent
service. It is true that they have not
e been running any unnecessary trains
Q to handle the public as is in the case
where there is competition, but on all
. of the four divisions Of the road cen.
terlng there is a good service and the
trains terminating their run there
II are we'll patroDized. This is because
Fairmont Is the shopping center for
al the country for a radius of many
r. miles and hundreds Of them are there
daily. 4
" Shipping Facilities Good.
n The shipping facilities could not be
improved upon as the roads run then
