Petticoats that are selling at as fair
a price as their cheap silk neighbors and
promising an amount of wear not to be
compared with the silks are those of mo-
reen. They come In the striped, checked
and plaid weaves of silk, and among the
latest are those in pompadour design.
Moreen is a fabric which holds its body,
keeping its pristine freshness indefinitely,
sheds the dust and possesses other quail
ties, making 1t preferable to silk for gen.
eral wear.
Since the openbacIS toothbrush has

public with toothbrush woes the open

and dandruff germs, and the bristles may

mouth brush, though, of course, this is
not necessary. They are made In ebony
and white celluold, with the best of
French bristles, and are well worth the
price asked for them.

Vivid Effects IN Color Combinations.

rose. black is excellent II relieved by
considerable white, which, of course,
should be next to the face and arms.
High colors, too, are used for wraps
intended solely for evening use and es-
pecially for the opera where the cloak
is quite as much a feature Of the cos
tune as the gown and accompanying
Jewels. For these bright yellow broad
cloth, velvet or satin, may be trimmed
with ermine, which carries not only the
color scheme note, but much of the be-
coming white and just enough Of the eff
fective black. Pink cloaks may be trim
med with small amount of ermine or
lynx or black velvet, but will stand as
large a quantity of sable as the wearer
possesses, for rose shades with dark
brown are always becoming. Bright
green is also exceedingly smart with
sable shades or with ermine; better than
all else with lynx or baby lamb. The
opera cloaks that have elected most ad-
miration are entirely of ermine, with
touches of gold lace or of sable, with
white lace similar to one Of military
shape, which carries four graduated
founces of old point.
Brown and white Is, in fact, used
again and again for evening. afternoon
and morning costumes, adapting the
amount Of light and dark materials en-
ployed to the occasion, white predominant
ing for all indoor gowns and brown for
the street.
Color combinations are more skilfully
brought out In hats than in any other
detail of the feminine wardrobe. The
sable toques, for instance, show every
shade of pale and bright yellow in their
trimmings of velvet, wings and plumes,
while others have single huge white,
pink or red rose, with Its foliage placed
against the brim- Ermine hats have
large black velvet bows, but rarely any
other contrasting color, for most flower
tints seem to conflict with the yellow
and white pelt. Lynx hats, on the con-
trary, are amenable to whatever color is
placed near them, and accord happily
with all the fashionable shades of pink,
blue, red and yellow.
Exceedingly daring are those velvet
hats Of old French pink or mauye with
yellow plumes. but the milliners who de.
signed them happened to know precisely
the right shades to combine which
makes all the difference in the world.
While It is popularity supposed that color
combination Is q heaVeR-eent gift. just

tractive combined with deeper tints of
their own range.
Quantities of white in the form OF a
lace blouse, long gloves and a hat all
malinette and snowy plumes. are worn
with these semitailor-mades, for white en-
tiers largely into the ensemble of every
ceremonious costume now worn, unless
the wearer be of the cult that affects the
one-tone style OF dressing, in which case
every detail Of her toilette is all black,
brown, green. mauve or blue. as the
choice may be.
Evening gowns display more decidedly
than all others the fancy for vivid color
contrasts. Brunette women are apt to
run the gamut of the deep rose and car
dinal shades combining with them jet or
naments, black gloves and slippers gold
lace with gold slippers or silver lace
with white satin slippers, silver embroid-
cred. Because the blonde woman realizes
that yellow brightens her hair and whit
ems her skin, she is at her best in an
evening gown of the shade of maize
which most becomes her. With this tint
she combines white lace trimmings with
white accessories or gold paillettes with
gold slippers, but Is careful to leave to
her brunette sister the orange tone so
long and successfully associated with
black.
Among the most fetching of matronly
evening gowns seen this season are those
Of pearl gray. with gold-embroidered lace.
and of black, with either silver or gold
spangles or the more costly pearl APP
plique trimming. Pale mauve is excel
lent with silver lace. particularly If the
wearer possess an ivory tinted complex
ion and snowy hair.

while her elder sister, grown more sar-
torially daring, essays cerise with black,
bright green with dull gold or high blue
with touches Of warm brown.
The subdued light vouchsafed to tea
gowns makes possible the wearing Of
many odd color combinations. OF these
are those quaint shades Of magenta and

grandmothers wore In the shape Of won

Women Explorers.

By her intrepid Journey of exploration
across the almost untrodden wilds Of Lab
rador Mrs. Leonidas Hubbard, Canadian
lady, who has recently come to London. has
once more demonstrated the courage with
which fragile, gently nurtured woman
can brave hardships and dangers when
might well daunt any man. For IL
years Miss Constance Gordon Cumming
wandered over the earth from the gran
lite crags of California" to the 'hre-foun-
tains of Hawaii" climbing in the Hima-
layas and penetrating into the heart Oh
China and Thibet. Miss Fl. Nj. Kingsley
explored the CAMERON regions, ana made
herself quite at home among fierce goril-
las and tiercer cannibals. Lady Baker,
who was the frst European to see Albert
Nyanza, thought nothing of walking into
the tent of an Arab SLAYER and fetcning
out the captives. while Miss Jane Molr,
Mrs. Bishop, Mrs Marshal and others
also occupy honored places as explorers.

No longer is the tailored street suit, de-
signed principally for practical knock
about service, necessarily q cherries cos
tune, calculated to depress the wearer
whenever she dons IT, Although the serge
or eheviot or tweed mixture may be OF
darkest brown, green, blue or gray, a
touch of vivid coloring and considerable
distinction may be added by the use of
few yards of gold or silver cording or
braid, pipings of contrasting velvet at
throat and wrists, or silk collar. cuffs and
pocket flaps.
Navy and royal blues, always popular
and seryiceable colors for severely tai
lored coats and skirts Of moderate price,
lend themselves more readily than do
most shades of contrasting accessories.
With them are employed reliefs of white,
pastel green, black, tan or red, though
to reverse the order and to trim garments
of these colors with navy or royal blue
would be against the rules of color har-
monies. Black, on the contrary, which is
relieved with blue, white, green, tan or
red, makes an exceedingly smart trim
ming for any of those colors. But black
is not nearly so desirable for a hack suit,
as 1t fades unevenly save in the more ex-
pensive fabrics. Black Is still fashion
able relief for brown, and is constantly
seen, notably where Hercules and SOU
tache braids are used as furnishings.
Two-toned gray tailor-mades are wonder
fully becoming to women with bright
dark eyes, scarlet lips and pink cheeks,

usually more satisfactory IL the collar,

COUNTY TO VOTE
ON LOCAL OPTION
Special Election Ordered by the
County Court for Saturday,
March 9TH.

Acting on Il petition signed by about
1900 voters OF the county the County
Court made an order on Tuesday call.
ing u specinl election throughout the
county for Saturday, March Ith to vote
on prohibiting the sale of intoxicating
liquors in St. Francois County under
the Local Option Law, The Anti
saloon people are pretty well organized
for the contest and think that the pres
ent is n propitious time to make the
fight to rid the county OF saloons.
The last census taken of Pennington
several years ago showed population
of less than 2,200, and as that applies
under the law to this election, the city
will not vote separately on the question,
To do that, the law requires n popu-
Iation of not less than 2,jOO. Last
Monday night, on petition Of the sa.
loon men, the Board Of Aldermen or
dercd new census taken. 1t is be-
lieyed that this census will show Il
population of $500 or more, but the
petition for the local option election
was presented in advance Of this action
Of the Board of Aldermen and the
County Court in making the order Tor
the local option election recognized the
last prcyiou, census takeu.
The saloon and those opposed to
local option will of course make Wig
orous fight to keep the county from
going "dry," and it may be expected
that much feeling and some bitterness
will grow out of the contest, for that
is always the case in aggressive reform
movements. Let Us hope, however,
that this will be minimizcd as much as
possible, and that each side will be
ready to yield to the voice OF the ma
jority.

for this movement and they are en-

ment is growing everywhere, and !
