It is composed of an exquisite blue passe, or old blue taffeta, of a quality made only for the nothing but silks shop, which shop, by the way, is much appreciated novelty, and a remarkably practical idea in these days, when the average shop sells anything from herring to seal skin. There is nothing sold that needs expert judgment so much as silk, and dealer that may be a great judge of fish may land you a silk that cracks and splits after beng worn only few times. But with the ques- tlon of wearing possibilities eliminat- ed, as it is in silks purchased at this shGp where experts give attention ex- clusively to silks, the silk gown has certainly come to stay, for her whose wardrobe allowance is limited, as well as for her who could indulge in silks the wearing qualities of which were problematical

preciative of the beauties of oriental fabrics, and today these exquisite cre' ations are receiving enthusiastic re- cognition in their use for the construc- tion of dainty gowns, being very ar tistic and particularly effective in the shirred models now so fashionable.
 Suesine silk lends itself perfectly tt, these dainty models, and has taken a front rank among inexpensive silks for lingerie waists. as well as entire gowns. Being a scientific combination of silk and cotton, it has the appear ance of China silk, with the wear ing qualities and price of a gingham.
 With the smaller waist and more tight-fitting bodice, corsets have as sumed a position of paramount import ance, but the best models such as the C-B la spirite are keeping pace with the trend of figure, and every woman can present chic and smart appear ance by having her gowns fitted over a carefully selected up-to-date model and exemplify the woman of fashi, at her best.

 B.. F. Sims of Chester, who recently went to New Castle, Cal, to visit a brother whom for fifty.five years he believed to be dead, returned home a few days ago highly delighted with his trip. A brief story of the separa- tion of the two brothers was published in the Van Buren Argus last summer just before Mir. Sims started west to visit his brother, man 80 years of age, owning a 125-acre fruit ranch in California, which he runs with Japan csc labor entirely. He has never been married, and now that he has been restored tc his own kin, so to speak. he has promised that he would dis. pose of his holdings and return home and spend the remainder of his days with his relatives in Arkansas and Missouri, none of whom he ever met except the brother who has just visit. ed him.

 "Yes," Shanghai went on, "and omens help me out too. Now, for instance, no darky will ever steal a chicken in the full of the moon.'
 Wont they, though?'
 "No, they won't. They only come in the dark of the moon, same as when they go after the left hind foot of the graveyard rabbit. So you see l know when to sleep peacefully and am not afraid in full moonlight"
 Would you trust yourself with that idea" asked Dorking in doubtful tones.
 Most certainly" replied Shanghai, with assurance.
 "I wouldn't" said Dorking, "and don't you pin your safety on such non. sense"
 He was right for when he woke at midnight the full moon was shining. and ill it's light he saw poor Shanghai, with his head sticking out of big bag, carried by Sam Slick, of amber hue, who was making tracks for the woods.

Written Specially for the

Palm Beach fashions are running the gamut from the simple tailor made frock to the most picturesque creation, and nearly all the fashions that have been immortalized by the great painters of all eras are with us.
 Portraits of old time beauties are being studied as never before for the secret of their charms. The picture fashions in dress are still "on,' espe- cially for elaborate costumes.
 Fashions are SO varied and so be- wilderingly picturesque, so prettlly quaint that it is difficult to choose which of the models have culled for you from the great Parisian modistes best designed for Palm Beach wear, to tell you about in my allotted space. Never before were created such ex- quisite, delicate, c1oudlike affairs, re- viving all the choicest coquetries of past generations, and never before was such latitude permissible in the cut of garments, from the graceful rrincess gown for her of the lissom figure to the less trying models fof the woman whose proportions should not be so clearly defined.
