where from so to $50 to the price. but
there's no denying that a French exquisite
ness often accompanies the doubled vowel,
and there are chic little handmade blouses
so redolent of Paris that plain waist doesn't
family express them.
For several seasons ~past-ever since the
edict that blouses should match winter
suits in color went forth-chiffon, silk
mousseline lace and net have been favorite
materials with blouse designers. They still
hold first place, affording the necessary
relief from oppressive warmth in over
heated houses, restaurants, theaters, etc.
yet carrying out the color schemes of the
coat and skirt costumes with which they
are worn, but there are Indications that
the silk blouse may receive more r~ecogni-
ton than 1t has in recent seasons.
The s~oftness, lightness and beauty of the
new satin finished silks and crepes make
them eminently suitable for blouse ma
terials, and where so many costumes are
satin trimmed the satin surfaced blouse fits
in admirably. Smart satin blouses are being
made en- suite with many of the autumn
street costumes, and the manufacturers Of
ready made blouses, having foreseen this
possibility, are offering some excellent little
satin models in the most popular colors and
shades.
An illustration of this point is furnished
by the mulberry satin blouse of the sketch,
a model that may also be obtained in sew
eral other colors. The lines of the blouse
are simple. but in accordance with the
latest ideas, the bust high, the fullness
slight and drawn down smoothly without
blousing, the sleeves long and close. the
collar tight, high and shaped upward at
the back.
Little satin-covered buttons, folds of the
satin and applied ornaments fashioned
from satin-covered cord are the only trim
ming, aside from the unpretentious little
guimpe OF cream net, but the blouse has
a decided cachet which a fussier, more
elaborate creation might lack.

BUTTONS FOR TRIMMINGS
Are StilI Holding Their Place for
the Fall and Winter
Dresses.

Buttons still hold their place among the
trimmings for fall and winter. They are
applied more lavishly than ever, but a note
of warning should be sounded for the bene-
fit of the uninspired. This matter Of APP
plying buttons is not so simple as 1t might
seem.
Their effect upon the lines of the coat
must be carefully studied. and there should
be at least some apparent reason for their
presence. Lamentable exhibitions OF
bizarre frocks recklessly spattered all over
with buttons OF contrasted color have
marked the summer season. and the
makers OF autumn frocks should profit by
these summer failures, but long lines OF
self-color buttons and buttonholes follow
ing the line of opened coat skirt seams,
coat fronts, outside sleeve seams. skirt
fronts, etc. are exceedingly effective.
Not only genuine buttons. but a great
variety Of buttonlike ornament are used
in profusion by the best designers. Flat

CONFLICT RACES ON FRoCKs
Authorities Differ In Their Forecasts
About the Early Fall
Models.

Conflict RACES round about the early
autumn frocks and suits. and the only way
in which the average woman can foster
peace of mind is to read one fashion journal
and no other, cleaving TO the edicts of the
one Paris correspondent as to the fashion
law and gospel. Perhaps she will be even
more at rest concerning her autumn ward
robe II she reads no fashion letters at all
and merely buys what she sees in the
shops; but in this latter contingency she
is likely to make egregious mistakes and
her satisfaction is likely to be short lived,
for the earliest autumn models are usually
mere echoes of late summer models, and
the actual novelties, the last Partisan
words anent the winter modes, do not
reach this country until after the Paris
fans have flocked back to Paris from
watering places and chateaux and have
set themselves seriously at work consider
ing the problems Of winter toilettes.
SO far as the models offered to American
buyers are concerned there has apparently
been nothing that is revolutionary or ever
surprising. They seem to be merely a
mulling over of late summer ideas, a COM
bining, accepting and rejecting OF these
ideas rather than any actual creation OF
new models.

SILK AND SATIN THE VOGUE
Blouses to Match Made Simple, but

The blouse en- suite has to a great extent

DENIES ANY PE0NAGE
IN NORTH CAROLINA

Judiciary Department and De-
nounces SANDER on State

WASHINGTON, ID. C.-Special-"I
for one am tired of making these ap-
preparations to send cut long-haired
men and short-haired women to spy
upon our people and Islander them"
With these Senator OVerman, of
North Carolina, closed a speech in
the Senate in which he answered
charges that serious conditions as to
peonage existed in North Carolina.
Senator Overman arose to a question
of privilege. and read an article in a
local paper dealing with peonage in
the South and purporting to give a
confidential report on peonage condi-
tons TO the Department of Justice by
Assistant Attorney General Russell. III
this report 1t was set forth that peon-
age existed in North Carolina as we'll
as other Southern States, and the con-
ditions were represented as serious.
Senator Overman replied only to
that portion of the report and OF the
article relating to peonage in North
Carolina. He declared there was no
word Of truth in it. that no peonage
existed in his State, and that there
had been no convictions for peonage
in that State. He denounced asser-
tons that peonage prevailed in North
Carolina as a SANDER upon the people
there.
