Chronicle call aloud for the elimina-
ton of maisons du joie from the late
Worlds Fair City. If they are so
persevering in the wiping out of

They may reply that there is no
law authorizing brothels; but my
answer is that if the anathema of
the law against an evil so public
and recognized is without effect,
then the demand is all the greater
that these papers, self-appointed

without ceasing the vice which OF

voters that they might cast out

All of the later features of fashion

and skirt. The corsage is cut with
collar and chenisette of Irish GRO

collar of the palest of pastel blue
cloth braided in black and silver, and
the deep girdle, we'll featherboned, in
silk of the same shade as the vel

blouse, and a cuff of ribbon and Irish
crochet. The skirt has hip yoke
shaped in two sections, to which the
very full skirt is applied with shir-
ring.

A deep purplish plum shade of vel
