Novelties for Women

Never was underwear so dainty nor so
cheap. The heavy Italian valenciennes is
so satisfactory.
It would really pay to take a few les
sons in tying bows. Ribbon bows Turkish
up a costume wonderfully
The three chief stones Of the season are
turquoise, amethyst and the lighter sap
phires. This is true of the imitation gems
as well.
Renaissance lace is very much used for
both cloaks and gowns. And truly there
could be nothing simpler and handsomer
than this.
Butterfly bows In pale ribbons are cor
rect for night dresses and every maid
should have a box of bows for all sorts
of occasions, as knots and loops and
ribbon bands are a necessity in these
beauty-loving days.
One very handsome French coat was
material over ruffies of chiffon. buttons and
handsome embroidery through which
glistened from underneath delicate
green satin. The inner lining was of
brocade.
Among the lace accessories are sets OF
collars and cuffs of datist embroidery.
The collars are made with round yokes
and deep cuffs. Another pretty set Is
made with small round yoke for the
collar and deep cuffs; the material is
organdie, with edging and insertion OF
Irish lace.
Albatross, cotton Grape and inexpensive
yelling, well as the pretty cheap flow
cred cotton and wool challies, make
charming negligces with trimmings of col
ored ribbon and lace. The thin materials
may be lined with color to make them
warmer or may be left unlined. mex
pensive Powered India silks which are
sold at bargain prices at the end of the
summer are good enough for tea gowns
when attractively made and trimmed.

heavy things with a square, mannish cut
but extremely fetching nevertheless and
button with single or two clasps. In
the dark shades there are a variety OF
new colors, including gray, rich tans and
oaks and black stitched with white. In
the lighter tones. are seen pale fawns
white and charming shades of pearl. The
backs are decorated with three welts
and each line has two accompanying
oblque welts pointing down toward the
wrist, There is a distinction very rigidiy
drawn in glovedom this year as to the
wearing of different kids with certain
fabrics. For instance, with chiffon and
dull finish materials suede is donned,
while with shimmering silks and crepes
de chine glace gloves are the proper
caper This may seem an exaggerated
sartorial point, but just try the materials
in conjunction and you'll soon understand
that the distinction is a nice one. There
are evening gloves that delicately sug-
gest color, or, one should rather say,

all in evidence.

purchase tan polishing material or the

The old-time brush has become a felt or

economical man to rub his own shoes with

a twist of green satin finish the crown,

Another feather trimmed hat which is
extremely stunning, but suited only to a

one long white plume rising majestically

For women patent leather is opening up
as the most popular material for winter
wear. Whether the craze will last through
the cold weather remains to be seen, al

In the old days the best that inventive
persons could do for the trunk was to
place a few partitions in it and few
trays. One day the idea of having a trunk
set upon end when IL was open and thus
making a wardrobe was conceived.

trunk became a wardrobe and the other a

THE LATE WILLIAM A. DUNN.

The death of Mr.. William A. Dunn
leader of the bar of Scotland Neck, is
a great loss to that town, TO Halifax
county, and to the State. He was
man of robust character, vigorous in
tellect, upright life, high civic virtue
and Christian manhood, who served
his day and generation honorably and
faithfully.
From early manhood he was a lead
err in all good causes. a courageous
fighter in every war for good govern
ment and for temperance. He sue
ceeded signally as a practising attor-
ney and as a business man. He was
a potent factor for Democratic
supremacy and was long a member OF
the State Democratic Executive Com
mittee.
The last public appearance of Mr.
Dunn was as permanent chairman OF
the Temperance Convention, which
met in Raleigh in February. His
speech will not soon be forgotten by
those present. 1t was a noble speech
full of faith, full of high resolve, full
of challenge to the foe of the home.

There is no difference worth speaking
of in the great insurance companies.
The officers and directors and stock
holders in stock companies pay them
selves big dividends; in mutual COM
panies the directors and officers vote
themselves big salaries. In both in
stances the policyholder pays the
freight What the policyholdef
wants is this and this only: To be
paid yearly the dividends earned, 10
have the business economically and
honestly managed so that dividends
NAV be earned, to have the COM
pany's officers concerned only with its
affairs, and no connection with the
trusts and others of the "frenZ1ed
finance" crowd.
1t is the system that the policy
holders oppose, and the change from
Alexander to Morton will do no good.
Alexander is not only the better man Of
the two and the fittest, but he enjoys
a larger share of public confidence.
What is needed is TO put into effect at

INTRODUCTION of Testimony.

that part of the speech of John G.
Kilgo set out in the complaint.
Judge Winston objected to intro
duction of the speech except to show
publication.
: Judge Graham also offered in evil
dence that portion of the pamphlet re-
lating to the trial before the board of
trustees.
Mr.. Hicks objected on the ground
that the paragraph had no relation to
the trial.
Col. Argo said that the purpose of
the paragraph was to show that the
statements made by Gattis and de-
nounced as false by Kilgo We're made
under circumstances which would rem
der him morally guilty of perjury.
Mr.. Watson said this was pointed to
give the sting to the libel.
Judge Winston stated that it showed
that no oath was administered and
that therefore there could be no
charge of perjury.
The court sustained the objection
under a rule of the Superior court that
the methods of the trial could not be
gone into.
The plaintiff then introduced para

and w. r. Odell as to the publication
by the board of trustees and also sec

Kilgo, this probably being put in as
evidence of justification.
