A POLITICAL FABLE

Once upon a time there was an
honest and Industrious Human
Being who found himself out Of
employment and without means of
subsistence. To add to the Misery
of his Plight he had dependent on
him Wife and Children. He
went from door to door and city
to city, asking leave to toll. He
received thousand and one ex-
cuses for refusal of the boon he
craved, ranging from Hundred

last be made up his mind to take
pilgrimage to the shrine Of the
Sacred Republican Elephant, which
had promised to be u tutelary deity
over him and others like him if he
and they would only keep the
Other Animals from kicking the
Elephant out of it's stable, where il
lived on the Fat of the Land

Often a note of color is introduced
by using bright colored piping to
edge the tucks in the waist, cuffs and
collar. Plaids also are used for straps,
cut on the bias and finished with fine
machine stitching. Odd-shaped and
often costly buttons are used to deco
rate the new waists.
For general wear the plain tailored
waists of net as we'll as those of satin

preference over the short-sleeved lin

and more pushed into evening or home
wear.

While there is little new in the de-
signs, the material must match the
skirt or suit with which it will be

silks, mousselines, satins and nets are
used both for the plain and the dressy
wear. In the former case the waist is
finished in tailored style with a plain
collar and tie, and when used for
dressy wear the waist will be much
trimmed, often with the material in
the skirt.
A pretty costume was developed

4bOut Plays
and Players
"Brown of Harvard"

For Brown of Harvard" which the
Shuberts offer at the Auditorium on
Wednesday, November IS, matinee
and night, with James Young in the
title role, is claimed the distinction
of being the most successful matinee
attraction ever produced. This was
probably due to the average girls
craving for more light on the inside
workings of college life and to the
entertaining qualities of the play it.
self. The presence in the afternoon
audiences of hundreds of pretty sis
ters-and sweethearts of college men
proved that the doings of young men
were quite as interesting to young
women as they were to he'lads them
selves. A girls play is always a sue
cessful play and there is no use de-
nying that girls just dote on college
boys, college pins. college flags. col
lege hats, college pillows, college any
thing and college everything-there
fore just as they have for years pro-
vided female beauty shows, the Shu-
berts now make an exhibition of hand
some young men on the business prin-
ciple that, if one matinee idol will
carry through 800 nights of successful
New York business, twenty college
appollos ought to make a piece. like
the proverbial brook, run on forever.

SOME FADS AND FASHIONS
FROM GAY OLD GOTHAM

them are extremely well liked Beige
and brown are leaders in millinery and
! in different tints are known as Van
dyke, rust-cedar, forest and saffron;
and in furs we find sable, mink. mar
ten and beaver the favorites, which
are also liked for hat trimmings as
well.
The fur turban or toque will be
favorite this winter. Sometimes it
will be combination of fur and vel
vet. While the fur hat in the first in
stance may be an expensive affair,
they need only very small amount
of trimming. All that is needed is
torsade and a graceful bow of velvet
or satin ribbon, smart ribbon orna-
ment caught down with fancy pin,
pair of wings or a sheaf of quilts.
Sometimes flowers are used but on the
whole feathers seem to be the most
appropriate trimming.
Nothing will renew the life of an old
dark hat of straw as albright wing or
touch of bright color.
Black and all dark shades are the
characteristic features of this au-
tumn's colors, but in nearly every
case, note of bright color is intro
duced.
Many strange colors are sought for
which though they go under the name
of old familiar tints, they appear very
unfamiliar to the eye.
Hats in reality too light in texture
and color for wear with the autumn
suit or for autumn days are often
made harmonious by the addition OF a
silk or satin undertaking and a good
deal of trimming in a dark shade.
With the smart cloth tailor costume
an all silk hat trimmed with quills or
ostrich plumes is bound to look ex.
ceptionally well. Satin hats are much
worn at this time of the year and are
quite as popular as the silk hat and
VIII De worn all winter.
Hats fit down we'll upon the head
and the dropping brim is still fash
ionable but less trimming will be seen.
Because of the great amount of trim
ming used on hats, tulle and net are
used in quantities in preference to rib
bon and satin, as it is easier to use
more of these materials than the heav-
Ter ones.
In feathers gourah and osprey are
fashionable, as well as wings and
quilts.
Ostrich feathers are again in use
and in all lengths, but the matter OF
application is change To that uses
during the summer and is the mark
of the new autumn hat.
The belt or girdle is a salient fea-
ture of all the more dressy waists.
Many of the new girdles are made of |
broad ribbon and finished with fringe |
or tassels. The sash is brought |
around the waist, crossed in the back |
and brought around to the left side
where it is knotted several inches be-
low the hip line, Others are in girdle
style with sash ends falling from
rosette.
A pretty costume for morning wear
around the house consists of a skirt of
mohair or serve cut with eleven cores
and front pane. which closes on the
left side. The tailored waist is of
cream shifting striped with the skirt
color and trimmed with straps of the
material and large buttons.
