Elegant Coats and Canes.

Elegant Goats and CapeS.
The separate black silk coat, made
Of glossy satin or of corded silk, or
Of brocade or MORE antique, should be
in every summer wardrobe. 1t makes
a beautiful little summer afternoon
coat to wear with ones handsome fou-
lard dresses and ones lowered mulls
and ones light summer silks, and 1t
is exceedingly pretty with blue taft
feta or pink Powered silk Such a
coat gives the touch of elegance which
one requires on many OCCASIONS
ut Is very good thing" said
French dressmaker, who caters to the
very wealthy, that the fashions are
such that any woman can look well.
The separate silk coat is an article
which ia dressy and not expensive. 1t
takes little and Is not difficult to make,
IL one understands how to fit. 1t must
be glove-fitting, and must be open in
the front, one of those dressy little
Louis affairs which make such diff
ference In ones wardrobe.
Again, among the articles which
any woman can have, and which stamp
Ter as the well-groomed woman, there
Is the lace cape. This should be long,
like circular cape, and made of white
lace-if woman dresses at all.
"The lace need not be expensive and.
If very cheap lace is used, 1t had best
be lined with chiffon to give it body,
with an inner lining of cheap white
taffeta. The bottom of the cape can
have tiny design outlined in very
narrow black fur. There can be fat
collar, with trace of fur running
around 1t. This makes a beautiful
cape.
"These articles which l have Just
described are necessarily elegant arti-
cles of dress. But they pay one SO
we'll for the investment Even in
small town. where one sees the same
people year after year and where one
does not go out great deal, such a
lace cape is good investment. 1t
can be worn to card parties, little
dances and to the theater, while for
a dressy article, to take with one when
one is going away for weeks vaca-
ton; there Is nothing that compares
to 1t. And it is new and fashionable
I'VE dressmakers advise the maxi
ing of one nice article each year in
the hope that our customers will even
.tually have supply of things to wear
with their inexpensive gowns and hats.
A lace cape or a silk coat is like a
handsome piece Of sealskin or like
fine jewell 1t dresses one up amazing
ly and is good forever. It covers more
than multitude of sins in the way of
silk waists that are little past their

her. Then it was that Mrs, Merrifeld
stated that Mrs. Bleakley was really
the mother of the baby, and in order
to make legal adoption, it was neces-
sary to get Mrs. Bleakley's consent.
This consent was ATTAINED under a
Misrepresentation of facts, so Mrs.
Bleakley alleges. When she discov-
cred that she had been deceived she
commenced hebeas corpus proceedings
in the federal court at Rock Island
ILL.,. and secured possession of the
baby on the ground that she was the
ch1ld's mother. She took the baby to
Lawrence with fler, and the Barclays
followed. They brought habeas cor
pus proceedings in the Douglas county
court and secured verdict.

Babes In TOyland.

Babes in Toyland," Hamlin and
Mitchell's big spectacular production,
which ran for nearly whole reason
in New York, and has had big engage
ments in other cities, comes to the
Metropolitan theater Monday, March
26. BABES in Toyland" is said to
be one of the most gorgeous and elab-
crate presentations of this class of en-
tertainment ever exploited in America.
Victor Herbert has supplied the music
and Glen Marlborough the libretto;
and 1t has had the advantage of Julian
Mitchell's careful stage management.

READY.MADE HOMES ARE
ALWAYS IN DEMAND

People of democratic tastes. who
like to Give in a house." but not in
lonesome one-solve the problem
easily and to their profit by renting
furnished rooms to pleasant people.
Isn't it better to live in a good
house, with few dodgers who pay
your entire rent for you little to-
ward your household expenses, than
to live in. small apartment, alone,
with expenses that grow harder and
harder to meet?
If you advertise PERSISTENTLY
you may. at nominal cost. keep
these sREADY.MADE HOMES" al
ways tenanted by THE RIGHT KIND
OF PEOPLE, and the somewhat bitter
problem of HOW TO MAKE BOTH
ENDS MEET will give you less con-
Germ.
When you set aside few rooms In
your house as "ready-made homes"
and begin to advertise them. you will
be surprised to find how many Of the
mice Sort of folks live in furnished
rcoms-and you will be surprised to
find out how easy matter 1t lis to
wipe out the terrors of your own trent
day."

The annual Swedish invasion is near

year is Mr.. Earl X. Mitchell, who, in
the guise of "Yon Yonson," will en-

the audience capitulate before his
charm of manner and rich humor.
This is all going to happen when lyon

this by no means makes "Yonson" an

production this season is absolutely
new from the actor who impersonates
the title role, to the wood used in the
