reminds us furs are among the real
 bargains.
 A gown of soft wool is a fine invest
 ment, the sort of dress one has call
 for the year round; and cashmeres and henriettas make up so satisfactorily.
 Our model pictures a princess of april
 cot-colored cashmere, that delicioiss
 pinky yellow now so beloved; the skirt falls in softest folds, and is decidedly long; a bolero of lace fastens in the
 middle of the front with a big bow of
 black velvet drawn through fancy
 buckle, the sleeves are edged with lace to correspond. If desired, undersleeves may be worn, perhaps it woifId be well to provide pair and thus vary the gown as we'll as make it suitable for cold day, a day when the bare arms might be rather chilly.
 The white shirt waist is worn by ev- erybody in the mornings, we simply cannot give up this trim and dainty garment. Neckwear for the wash-waist matches, it too is trim and dainty. Washable stocks of various sorts are popular, and many linen ones have handmade turnover collars. It is to be hoped women will adhere to wash- able neckwear, it is the only really de- .Sirable kind. One reason men look heater than women after an all-day downtown is because of their daily fresh linen, because they display no soiled finery.
 We may affect the laundered collar later on, and again take up the Wind- sor tie, this year there is appearing a Windsor with embroidered ends. Both plain and plaid effects are in vogue in this tie, the favored width is five inches, the favored colors. white, navy and cardinal. For lingerie waists there are exquisite self-embroidered lingerie stocks. Japanese embroidery on waists and in neckwear promises to be more than ever the rage; likewise chemisettes lose no jot of their popu- larity, but now preference is given those made of finest batiste rather than all-over embroidery and lace frills.
 Bits of silk picked up at to-day's bargain counters may be saved for the gray voile spring gown, for lowered silks go so prettily with certain soft tones of gray, and the combination is the extreme Of style. Apricot cloth makes lovely evening wrap, and the trimming to use for such a wrap is heavy lace. Not few of the wraps are made without sleeves, just big capes, not unlike those we see in old fashioned fashion plates.

She Still Retains Her Figure

No one would believe how hard the queen of England works. No working woman tolls more steadily than she. Her object is to preserve her figure, make her waist little make her figure tall and slim and preserve. generally. the outlines of her body.
 Svelte Is the only word to describe the queen of England's form. It Is that of a girl of le. mature. but not matronly; developed. yet by no means old: full Of curves. yet not rounding: tall. classic and ideal. yet not suited nor laced. Anl its price is eternal vigilance.
 The queen of late has been going in for out-of-door fads. She is a believer fin outside exercises and her reduction methods take the form of out-of-door york. She rows upon the Thames: she fishes of the banks of Scotland; she drives an automobile in London and she works vigorously in the garden.
 The queen walks little. yet walking Is fine for the figure Her majesty Is a firm believer in it. but being slightly lame. she seldom fndulges in it.
 If you are walking for reducsion. or if you are ausomobIling for that same purpose. he sure to dress for 1t Let your

costume be warm. It is better to be too warm than too cool. Better to sweat q little than to shiver..
 And what is it all fors Why. for a little waist: for a tall. slender figure. for the admiration of the public. and for the name of being the youngest s0-year- old woman in the world.
 Her majesty has no sacs under her eyes. And this is unusual. for they be- gin to come at 70. Her majesty has nO crows feet around her mouth. and this is rare. for they begin to appear at 9. her majesty has none of those strange horizontal lines running across the forehead. and this is marvellous. for they appear long before one has reached 50: and her majesty has few of those odd soft looking bags which are found at the tip of every chin and in the front of every throat-the brisket bags which are al ways present in middle age

 POLI'S
THE RIXAIS.'

There was not large audience pres ent at Polls theater last evening to
 witness the production of "Tie Rivals" as presented by the two sons of that famous old actor, Joseph lief ferson. now deceased. Naturally many
 of those who were present last evening were there for the purpose of making comparison of the exacting role of
 Bob Acres by William Jefferson and
 that of his father, in which character
 the famous Joe Jefferson excelled. The
 comparison was very favorable indeee
 for the younger JeffersGa seemed 10
 have copied almost entirely the stage
 work of his worthy father. It was
 splendid presentation of the role both
 in voice. action and in every manner
 ism so vividly portrayed by the vet
 eran role promoter. The similarity
 was very strong in most of the various
 scenes and the young man followed
 as closely as anyone could have done
 every little detail so well portrayed by
 his illustrious parent. His brother.
 Joseph Jefferson. was not happily cast
 as Sir Lucius O'Trigger. On his first
 appearance he misplaced his brogue
 and could not seem to grasp the idea
 that one style of brogue was sufficient
 in the enacting of one part. As the play progressed. however. he hewed closely to his part and gave better presentation of the character. Natural ly also the comparison was made be- tween his enactment of his part and the splendid showing made by Wilton
 Lackey in the same part when the veteran actor. Joe Jefferson. p;:yed here some year ago. Another charac- ter that lent interest to the perform. ance was that of Sir Anthony Abso- lute. played by another old veteran of the stage. John Jack. His was a fa- miliar role. however. for he has lived in it for years and years with his now dead and gone friend Joe Jefferson himself. Mir Jack was given an en- thusiastic reception last evening. Ons of the bright and entertaining charac- ters last evening was that of Captain Absolute. as played by Arthur Stam- 1 ford. It was one of the best treats of the evening aside from the work of 1 William Jefferson Rosa Rand as Mrs l Malaprop and Blanche Bender as Lydia Languish also displayed pleasing l qualities In their respective parts. The l play was beautifully staged and alto gether 1t was an enjoyable production.

CHEROKEE ABANDONED.
Captain Archibald and Mates Driver From Wrecked Liner-Mails Saved.

ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Jan. 16- Captain Archibald, his two mates an6 the life saving crews have abandoned the stranded steamer Cherokee.
 When they left the steamer to the fate of the clements waves were roll ing over the deck and pounding against the pilot house, which was the last ref uge of the captain andhis little band of men. The big vessel, which is valued at about $500,000, will probably be a total loss.
 Captain Mark Caste, who made the sensational rescue of sixty persons from the steamer, went out to the stranded vessel in the sloop yacht Sin bad, accompanied by Captain c. NJ. Kessler and a small crew, and brought ashore all the mail bags and baggage of the passengers and crew.
 In recognition of the bravery of Cap tain Mark Caste the Glover club of Philadelphia has invited him to attend dinner in that city on Thursday even. ing and will present him with dia- mond medal The mayor of Atlantic City has publicly thanked him in an open letter

Play Moved Robber to Confess.


 NEW YORK. Jan. 16.-Moved by a passage in play where burglar caught in the act tells clergyman that the whole world is against crim- inal who tries to reform. a young man who gave his name as Albert Emerson arose from an orchestra seat in the Garden theater last night and before the audience proclaimed himself an ex- pert safe breaker and robber and de- clared his experience proved the truth of the words of the stage character. His interruption. made in tones loud enough to be heard throughout the the ater, stopped the action of the play. He was arrested and taken to the West Thirtieth street police station. There he gave his criminal record. which has been partly substantiated.

A woman said to me the other day ito be sure it was hairdresser-let a woman look to her hair dressing and her hat and she need not worry And there is no little truth in the state- ment, though few there be of us that seem to profit by knowledge of the fact @
 This year especially the .coiffure il something not to be neglected, and every woman should pay careful atten- tion to this item-climax, rather-of dress. While there is no one style which may be said absolutely to rule, yet there are certain things modish, certain others not. It is all very we'll to assert that a woman should not observe changing fashions in hair dressing, that she should keep to one style that has been found becoming; she should certainly never go in for fashion that is not becoming to her individual face and form, but she may adopt certain little changes that will bespeak attention to the mode. As for instance, this season for full dress she may add some form of ornament to her coiffure.
 As rule the hair ornaments are modest and pretty rather than obtru- sive, though over in Paris they have gone in for long egrets and even birds of paradise feathers. A soft low pom pom is decorative and becoming, also the single rose, and also the cluster of small blossoms. Sometimes from the half wreath there will arise at one side a short ostricn feather. some- times the wreath will terminate in but terfiy bows. The single ostrich tip has been worn by generations of women. and is again in vogue; it Is sort of regal touch to the toilette. suggests court receptions. queens drawing worn by very humble little girl at her first dance. The lace and jeweled butterfly has also had a long life, just why we cannot say.
 Newer modes are upstanding sprays of gold and silver wheatheads inter- with grasses. and we should speak of the use of other shimmering
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1906-01-16

gold foliage. and occasionally the tips of soft pompom will be touched with gold or silver. One of the prettiest and simplest modes is the use of a twist of tinsel gauge across the front of the coil. Good gauge should be employed. cheap tinsel is a thing to be avoided.
 It may be in place here to speak of the arrangement of the hair. The low coil and braid are not so much in fash ion now as the hair drawn up we'll on the crown of the head. The pompa- dour, a nicely modified one, is the thing, although the part is seen quite frequently and when becoming is most attractive. A pompadour drawn up pretty we'll from the sides and falling over the middle Of the forehead is affected. and there may be little curl just at the middle. We recently mo- ticed a pretty arrangement of roses across the back of a soft knot of hair piled high op the head.

for these gloves. and about as many white ones asked for as black ones.
 The dealers are offering very good long black silk glove, so thick and of such excellent quality it is a strong rival to the more extravagant kid. The silk fits hand and arm so prettiIy, by not few is preferred for other than economical reason.
 My, such bargains as are tempting one now, many good thing going for the proverbial song; if we were all musical. how well dressed we should all be these January days! The wise woman buys now, if she is at all able; against next years demands; and to add to this years store, too, for real winter is now before us, for many long days yet we shall have to cling to wools and furs.
