SILK DETTICOATS

So elaborately ornamented and ex-

cular fiounces of exquisite batiste now
come for these petticoats, which are
made to do duty for wear with tea
gowns, as well as under evening gowns.
For the simple petticoat, which is still
dainty enough TO be worn under the
most elaborate of gowns. the Valen-
ciennes lace edge. which is sewed rows
upon rows into n deep fiOunce, is one
which makes easily and can be used as
dainty hand work.
The circular effect given to the f7ounce
is obtained by sewing the lace together
without fullneSS for about half OF its
depth, while below that distance the

are not necessary, if one does not want
them. Lace seldom appears upon after
noon gowns for calling purposes, except
IN the neck and sleeves. and in the
sleeves the ruffies are usually narrow
and are put in triple. making a soft
foamy line of white at the elbow, which
Is very dainty. Good taste Will dictate
what sleeves look best with this finish
and which look best without lace.
Long sleeves are also worn i'm after
noon gowns, although they are not as
good as are the short ones. When these
appear they are small and quite plain
made almost like Il mans coat sleeve.
The short fur coat will be the thing in
the way of a wrap for cold weather. 1t

smart in any good fur, but, If there
should be a partiality, IL is for imitation
sealskin, which is enormously popular
and quite as effective as the real fur.
The most modish thing in the way
of a wrap for this winter, to be woru
over afternoon gowns and also or
othes occasions, will be a long fun
coat. This fad is so expensive that it
cannot become general. but there is
no question about it's being the latest
and smartest thing IN the way of a
wrap for winter.
OF the fashionable afternoon gowns
shown in these illustrations, figure A
is built of mouse-colored cloth, cut in
the circular style. with little full
ness at the belt.
Above the knees a band of trimming
is put around the skirt with up-stand-
ing battlemented tops, the trimming
being OF such embroidery as will be
found most becoming. A little below
this band is a second wide band of
trimming which has navy edges along
the bottom. A medium wide fold fin
ishes the skirt above the hem.
The bodice is draped to curve over
the belt and is given a belt effect in
the disposal Of the draperies. 1t is
wide piece of trimming forms a sort
of surplice collar effect which buttons
on each side the bottom of the bodice
where IT crosses-to up-turning ends
of black velvet. This black velvet
band passes around the back Of the
bodice like a belt and turns up in
front. with crossed ends which disap-
pear beneath those of the collar, that
are buttoned to them with black velvet
buttons.
Three tabs of cloth cross the collar
near the shoulder, on each side, and a
chemisette and high stock Of lace fin
ish the bodice. A little bow is worn
at the neck.
A small puffed sleeve is finished
with three narrow frills Of lace IT the

of the state of Texas he had many
clashes with men OF more education
but less wit than himself 1t is told
OF him that one day while standing in
front. of his hotel on Pennsylvania
avenue a swarm of mules trotted by
under the custody Of an overseer
from one of the stock farms in Vir-

who was standing near by, attracted
Crockett's attention to the unusual
sight, saying:
"Heilo there, Crockett; here's lot

He Will Address Annual Meeting of
the South Carolina Press Associa-
ton at White Stone.

Spartanburg Jouranl.
If the members Of the Fourth Es-
tate do not enjoy their annual gather
ing at White Stone Lithia springs il
will not be the fault Of the manage
ment. for preparations are being made
to make the stay of he editors as
pleasant and entertaining as possible
The meetings will be held July I3, ID
and IS.
The executive committee has Sc
cured as the orator Mr.. S. H. Hard.
wick. general passenger and traffic
manager OF the Southern railway
His address will be delivered to the
Association on the evening of July Il.
The subject will be, The Story of the

Its Development" Mr.. Hardwick is
we'll qualified to talk interestingly and
entertainingly on this topic. the rail-
way system OF which ne is an official
being the great n and outlet to the
trade and commerce and expansion OF
the South, particularly the Piedmont
section. In his capacity he has been
conversant with the development OF
this section, and will have something
practical and to the point Tor the ears
OF his hearers.
The programme for the three days
session. as arranged by the commit
tee, has already been published in the
local press and the attendance bids
fair to be the largest of any at ally
prior gathering of the editors OF the
State
White Stone Springs is convenient
ly located on the S. y. and C.. road,
and an electric car meets the trains.
1t is a point to and from which the
schedules are convenient, and the re-
sort itself will attract many newspa-
per men who have not visited the
place.
The majority of the editors who at
tend the gathering, if not all of them,
will visit Spartanburg, and inspect the
city, its paved streets, splendid educa-
tional institutions, giant industrial
monuments, busy business houses and
handsome residences, and depart inn
bued to some degree with the Spartan
spirit.
