il the high, stiff collar worn by women
to the extent that IL is worn in America
In the Orient a woman wearing a lace collar
wired as high IA her ears n fastened up
tightly or a stif linen collar would be looked
upon as a freak. and even in large European
cities the fashion OF covering up every
OF uncomfortably stiff bandage dOesnC
begin to be practised as il ia right here
in New York. Stiff collars ruin the shape OF
the neck.
Personally | am devoted 10 low neck
gowns and seldom wear anything else Of
an evening. even If my neck is far from
plump. Fortunately for me bones are in
fashion"
A we'll known painter Of the nude, al
though without enthusiasm on the sub
jet Of any organization which might wish
TO censor the dimensions of a low necked
gown. nevertheless advanced one OF two
opinions not exactly fiattering to New
York's women of fashion. Said he:
There are three classes of persons in
New York who from an artistic stand
point frequently offend when they get into
a low necked gown. These are the smart
set. so-called; the theatrical set. and the
demimOnde, and the worst of the three
Ia the smart act. because 1t considers itself
immensely superior to the other two
classes.
1T goes without saying that in his class
there are many exceptions. II is true
also that tho number Of persons in this
class who offend against the artistic is
larger than it used TO be. At least that
is my opinion.
You will notice perhaps that no portrait
painter of distinction ever paints a woman
wearing a bodice such n may be seen any
night in that sacred circle Of boxes at the
Metropolitan Opera House The new club
with the wonderful name ia right about
such gowns being d~emoralizing.
Nevertheless a club OF that sort IL ahso-
lutely powerless TO reach the fashionable
set, to whom unfortunately 30 many other
sets look for guidance as to correct dress
ing. As to the evening gown cut only TO
the ~clavicle. | consider that nonsense.
THE shoulders and the neck of most
women are fair TO see. and the fashion of
showing them Is 10 be commended. and the
sight is far from demoralizing If the line
commended by good taste is observed.
No artistic woman needs TO be old what
this line is. and II she chooses TO err on the
side of the inartistic nc club Of women ever
got together can keep her from IL.
"Similarly women who do not want TO
err on the side OF bad taste do not need a
club OF women 20 show them how to cut
their gowns.

Years-A Few American Wares AInong
the Flood From European POtterles
New York women are buying pottery al
they never bought il before. The array
of pottery in the stores il larger than IL has
ever been. Fine china and porcelains are
for the moment passed by and the crowd
showers adjectives and dollars on pottery
one-quarter the price OF others.
This is as true Of the rich IA Of the well
to do, and simply because pottery Is In
fashion. In some homes Dresden and
! Sevres bric-a-brac has been showed aside
to make room for queer looking vases and
ornaments OF substantial pottery, and for
no better reason than that the latter are
novelties. q
In n big downtown wholesale concern
where more a two hundred samples OF
imported china. porcelains and pottery
are displayed the space occupied by pot
terry just now is as large again as it was
two years ago, and the same is true OF tho
uptown retail shops and the department
stores. Unusually attractive designs as
well as comparatively low prices have a
good deal TO do with the increased vogue
Of pottery.
Perhaps the most popular examples Of
pottery come from Germany and Austria.
TIL purchaser who is puzzled at the array
and doubtful what to ask for may mention
Teplitz ware or Dux ware. half a dozen
different factories being represented in the
one and nearly a many in the other. There
are many examples OF both. but roughly
speaking they may be divided into the

Communicated. The City Council Trustees.

A street once dedicated is always street and Is the property of all the people for present and future genera tions. The Council are trustees and should one Council make the mistake. however sincere, of allowing a street to be closed up, it is the duty of suc- ceeding Councils as trustees to have 1t opened. For example, if a trustee for minor heirs should unwittipgly, but unlawfully, dispose of his or her prop erty, it is the duty of the successor of that trustee to put the heirs in right full possession of their own. This is the case with Lee street.

The Gadsden Times-News does not seem to think that the status of the Chattanooga Southern is not yet fixed. and in its issue of February 2S, it says:
 General Manager W. W. Kent of the Chattanooga Southern Railway was in Gadsden yesterday. He said he was keeping track of his railroad and its frequent sales in the newspapers. MT. Kent asserts that no changes have yet been made but admits that an offer for the railroad was made last October. and that 1t Is likely to be accepted.
 ''on March 6 the annual stockhold- CTS meeting of the Chattanooga Southern Railroad will be held at Gadsden. The result of this meet ing Is awaited with a great deal Of interest everywhere, as 1t is believed that at this meeting the true sta- tus of whether or not the Louisville and Nashville has gotten into control of this road will be known.
 "As far as can be learned, the Louts- vile and Nashville has succeeded in getting large block of stock In the road, but as a minority of the stock holders still have their stock and as all of 1t Is held by trustee. those In a position to know do not believe the road will be taken over by the Louis- vile and Nashville for some time to come, unless the minority stock is also purchased.
 This road, if owned and controlled by the Louisville and Nashville, would be a great help in transportation from Cincinnati and points eastward, as 1t would be a virtual double track for the Louisville and Nashville from Cincinnati to Calera, after the build ing of the gap from Etowah on the Atlanta Knoxville branch to Chatta- nooga.
 Another feature would be thaA 1t would greatly relieve the freight con- gestion now experienced by the main line of the Louisville and Nashville.
