Much more latitude. both in dress and
enga gements. is permitted now to per-
sons in mourning. for many things that
would have been severely criticised
few years ago are considered correct.
1t is not necessary to wear black for
more than three months if a person
wishes to discard it at that time. AS a
matter of fact. this applies to crepe.
rather than to black. but at this warm
season all white may be substituted for
the former. 1t must be of the simplest
white. however. and there is a certain
trimming that is known as white mourn
ing. There is white crepe. too, but this
is so expensive it is really luxury.
White materials that are good form in
mourning are lawns. muSlinS and other
plain fabrics. trimmed either with sim
pie bands of the same or with the mourn
ing lace. which is something on the order
of Brussels net. 1t comes in different
widths and may be gathered into ruffles
as well as used for bands. Lace of any
kind must not be worn so soon after be-
reavement. Crede de chine is of course,
a suitable weave
Correct Trimming for Hats.
Hats may be trimmed with chiffon. dull
finished taffeta or white flowers, but
feathers of any kind are unsuitable. The
whole keynote of a white costume when
in mourning must be simplicity. not dress
mess With chiffon. Brussels net and the
lace bands already referred to. very
dainty and strictly conventional 1rocks
may be made.
If any parasol is carried it should be a
plain silk one.
Very smart effects wholly within the re-
strictions Of mourning may be gained by
the use of black ribbon trimmings with
white frockS. For instance. a white shirt
waist dress with dull black ribbon belt
black tie Off any is worm black pumps
and stockings to match is mourning. but
is cool and effective. Black hats. as a
rule. are much more stylish worn with
white frocks than white hats
a correspondent has written to know
if she might go to the silver wedding Of
a friends mother, although the writer S
father has been dead only six weeks.
To be present would be very bad taste, for
too short time has elapsed. There is a
certain respect to the dead that must be
observed, even should there be lack of
affection to the memory. To see per-
son whose parent had died so recently at
a reception or party would be shocking to
many persons. and the individual who
went under such circumstances would I'M
doubleday come in for much criticism.

At Theaters and Concerts.

On the other hand. person should not
be criticised for going to the tteater or
concerts within a year after the death of
member of his or her immediate fam
lily. A logical reason for this is that
persons in sorrow and distress should
have a certain amount of healthy diver
sion to prevent them from growing NOR
bid from broOdng over their loss. This
diversion they can get more quietly and
with less conspicuousness at the two
places mentioned than under any other
conditions. People in first mourning
should not sit in a box while in deep
black. but should have seats among the
audience. where they are less likely to
be in evidence.
A girl in mourning for a parent might
go to watch dancing after six months re-
tirement, but she should not dance be-
fore the end of year. While not dane
ing she should not wear full evening
dress; instead of a compromise in high
neck frock with transparent guimpe
would be correct.

Kingsville, Texas, August 1.-THE

Brownsville and Mexico railroad was
ended today, when the striking en-
ployes went back to work in the
shops, after being out just month,
General Manager Miller met delega-
ton of the Brotherhood of Railroad
Carmen of America in Corpus Christi
last week, and succeeded in settling
the difficulty to the satisfaction of all
concerned. C. H. Flato, jr., the well
known lumber man of Kingsville is
due much credit for his efforts in as
sisting the railroad company to adjust
the matter.
Throughout the entire strike, there
has been no disorder whatever, the
strikers conducting themselves in the
most orderly manner Everyone here
is glad the matter is settled, and the
men at work again.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing Of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is infiamed you have rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed. Deafness is
the result, and unless the infamma-
ton can be taken to its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by Catarrh, which is nothing but an
infiamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cuerd by
Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for circu-
lars free.
