NEW YORK
FASHION
LETTER

New Yor, Sept. S.--As the autumn
comes on there is always a time when
our dressing is most difficult; the
season is too warm and too early to
put on anything that savors of win
ter, and yet, the summer clothes are
aften too cool and in a decidedly
frayed condition. Therefore the
| question arises, how to be suitably
and becomingly dressed during this
between" season.
! 1t is necessary, perhaps, after so
much travelling and moving about
| during the summer to have new
street dress for the morning, not too
| heavy in weight and yet one, that
with an extra warm blouse and furs
would serve on those warm days
| that come upon us even in the midst
of winter Such a costume was de-
veloped from satin cloth by a pony
! jacket suit, which is one of the latest
examples of that style. Box shaping
| characterized the front and wide
tucks at each side of the closing are
stitched to the lower edge. The back
is semi-fitting, showing a tendency to
a closer shaping at the waist line,
this result being obtained by side
back seams that extend from the
shoulders and have inverted plaits
below the waist line. The edges of
the front meet in closing and the
narrow space between the tucks dis
plays clustered buttons or ornament |
alton of braid in simulated vest ef-
feet, and the fastening is invisibly
made. A fiat collar outlines the
neck, while coat sleeves are supplied
and adjusted into armholes with
gathers! they are sufficiently wide at
the top to suggest the present favor
for broad shoulder effects, and wide
turned-back cuffs are their finish at
the elbow. The skirt is one of cir
cular two-piece models so fashion
able just now, and has the seam in
the center front and back over an
inverted plat. About the sides are
three nuns folds laid about six
inches part. The only further decor
alton is the machine stitching. This
costume would make up prettily in
blue mohair with touch of red in
the cuffs and collar, and worn with T,
a blue hat adorned with blue velvet I,
and wings. The blouse to be worn !
with it was of blue and red plaid
which sounds crude, know, but was
by it's pattern very pretty, and fin
ished with one of the new French
turn-overs and bright tie.
Possibly one of the corselet skirts,
made from some of the thin goods in
vogue with inverted plaits on the
cores, is a legacy from the summer.
This can be ripped apart, cleaned
and remade. An example of such a !
gown was in tan voile and semed to i
have lightened in the process of
cleaning, but the owner put it
through bath of strong coffee from |
which emerged as good as new. The
old lining of brown silk had cracked !
too badly TO be used again, so lin |
ing of green nearsilk was considered

at the center, or the edge may be
turned back in revers. a stole fac
ing scanned at the center of the back,
follows the neck and front edges.
One seam is used in shaping the
sleeves, for which long, three-quarter
and shorter lengths are allowed.
The band finishing the lower edge is
in pointed outline, and the frills are
discretionary. The yoke was simu-
lated by layover of handmade point
lace and the lining was of white
China silk.
A skirt to wear with this was con-
structed with three pieces in Rajah
silk, the full back section was ar
ranged in a triple boX-plait, and two
circular portions with clusters of
plaits laid at regular, intervals, all
of which may be stitched to yoke
depth. A seam in the front in Ouch
ess style connects the two sides sec
tions, and adds to the appearance of
the skirt. Machine stitching completes
the costume. A blouse of China silk
and lace would be pretty to accom-
pany the costume and black braid
and silk hat trimmed with short
plumes and silver buckles should be
added.
Another woman, from, an old silk
coat in black, that had not seen too
much wear, used II for the develop
ment of a natty little blouse waist,
while from an old China silk skirt,
the waist of which was worn out,
she made a second, having a pink
slip for underneath. The plastron
and fiat collar OF all-over lace were
the pleasing features OF the first
waist. the one in black. 1t closes
at the left front. and black velvet
edges the plastron and is carried to
the waist line, the same appearing
on the cuff of the full elbow sleeve,
completed with a narrow full lace
edging. Large buttons adorn the
front of the waist, and deep girdle
of silk with buckle at the back con-
fines the blouse at the waist-line.
The waist is suitable for wear with
odd skirts. The second waist was
noticeable for its triple pointed yoke
which extends only to the shoulder
line at the front while tucks and
gathers allow for more fulness OF
the waist at the front. The closing
Is at the back with shows tucks ex-
tending from the shoulder to the
waist line. A narrow lace edging
gives a soft finish TO the neck and
short pun sleeves. The belt was a
softly crushed affair giving a high
girdle effect.
A very dressy toilette Of grey wolfe
was shown with a yoke and vest ex-
tension of all-over lace and long cuffs
OF the same. The fronts OF the ma
terial have pointed extensions that
button across the vest in a very sty-
Iish manner. There are three tucks
on each side OF the yoke at the
shoulder seams and stitched down
for a short distance. The back OF the
waist Is in one piece below the yoke
and has its slight fulness gathered
into the belt. The sleeves have sty-

gored model and there was practical
ly nothing to do but to turn and
stitch the seams while around the
lower edge were applied folds of the
goods divided by rows of the inser-
tion that matched the edging on the
waist.
Plating is to be used largely during
the fall and for thin goods no ar
rangement could be better, but re-
member that 1t is adapted to the
short skirt only, for on long skirt
that has to be lifted constantly, the
plalts lose their shape which should
fall in straight, graceful lines.
Apple green is to be one of the
fashionable colors this winter.
Ribbons will continue popular as
n trimming.

good enough for this made-over
dress, which was recut with some
slight changes into a plain-gored
skirt and over each seam was a strap
of green and brown silk dotted with
red. The bottom was heightened by
new piece that had gone through
the same process as the dress to give
1t the same color, and machine
stitching was used as finish. The
top of the skirt was cut off at the
waist line finished with a small belt
under a silk girdle. The waist
blouse was made of the green lining
silk and a very narrow bertha out
lined it; the back was in one piece,
the fulness of which was confined by
gather under the belt. The little bo-
lero was refined, decorated about
the bottom, fronts, and neck by an
applied fancy portion of silk COM
pleted with machine stitching. The
sleeves were left short and finished
with silk cuffs that matched the ap-
piled piece in the body. The hat that
had been worn with this costume was
brown straw, which was now
cleaned, trimmed with a brown ruche
in the back, green foliage and red
berries, and a green velvet band.
The gloves were brown glaces, and
the oxford ties and stockings were
of the same color.
A green silk poplin of a beautiful
shade and fine texture, but old fash
ioned in cut was used as the founda-
ton of an afternoon costume. The
dress was ripped up, then sent to the
cleaners. as the goods and color Is
a particularly hard handling for an
amateur cleaner. In order TO make
IL by any of the new models some
piecing had to be done, but was ac-
complished so cleverly that under the
black yelling upper dress it was not
at all noticeable. The outer skirt is
nine-gored. The fulness around the
hips is disposed in tucks or shirrings
to yoke depth, or may be collected
in gathers. The upper edge is finish
ed in a band. Below fiounce depth
the skirt is laid in three nuns tucks
and the lower edge is finished with
a hem. In the waist the full fronts
and hacks of the material are tucked
at the shoulder seams and the full
ness at the waist line disposed in
shirrings. The v shaped yoke is Mt
ter by shoulder seams. A standing
collar finishes the neck edge and a
shirred girdle completes the lower
part of the garment. The sleeves
maye be made in full or elbow length
and consists of a two -pieced close
fitting undersleeve and one-piece
pun fnished with a wide cum.
From some years back there had
lain wrapped In tissue paper a black
velvet long jacket made with yoke
and Watteau back; and from this for
evenings was constructed very pre-
sentable empire style coat. The
coat was scanned at the center. and
has two plaits at each side OF the
front, the fulness below being press
ed in deep plat to the lower edge
and the closing Is conspieiously made

has decided that unless the roads
travelled by the carrier are proper
ly maintained the service will be
Withdrawn. The postofice depart
ment now calls ON the carriers for
reports on the roads and will stop
the services where the highways
in question are bad. Wherever a
route is discontinued the inhabi-
tants themselves will be to blame
for it, for if alive to their own
interests and their duty to the
public they would give their roads
vigorous and constant attention.
The idea route once authorized
is necessarily permanent is a mis-
take. Advice on the best road
methods is supplied by the agri-
cultural department, and neigh
borhood that loses it's rural de-
livery must itself bear the dis
credit for so unpleasant and

DR., HUNTER p. COOPER.

The Times-Recorder deeply de-
plores the death of that great and
good man, DR.. Hunter P. Cooper
of Atlanta, and heartily concurs
with the Atlanta Constitution in
the following tribute to his noble
and well spent life:
"The death of DR.. Hunter P.
Cooper brings deep sorrow to all
who knew him personally, and to
the many others who knew him
only through his influence upon
the community and through his
works.
standing at the head of the
splendid profession to which he
had given his life, DR.. Cooper was
the ideal physician. A young man,
as life is measured, he had already
accomplished very much. Thous-
ands who are able to testify with
deep gratitude to his professional
skill, other thousands who knew
him less directly, but are no less
appreciative of his success and of
the good he did-all these will feel
a personal loss at his untimely
death.
"The good that such a man does
is beyond measuring. The example
of such a life is Of great value to
the community in which he lives,
its influence reaching far beyond
the circles of personal friends, of
professional associates or of the
immediate benefciaries of his skill.
"a good man, physician meas
uring up to the highest ideals of
his profession, a fine citizen, DR..
Cooper has been a potent factor in
the life of Atlanta, and his death
is a great loss to both city and
state"
