Evening Dress

It is almost an unwritten rule that all the richness of the embroidery in the new evening gowns goes to the adorn- ment of the corsage.
 The dress, itself of the modern elegan- te, IS classic in its simplicity, and no trouble is spared to make every fold fall with perfect precision and to give length of line and slimness. This sea son the ease of the short, stout woman will be parlous one, and her only hope lies in delivering herself over to the hands of a good dressmaker and trust ing to the modifying effect of dark tints and the length of the train to achieve the best results.
 Trains for evening gowns will. in fact, be very long and cut into a def mite point instead of the usual round or square. Sleeves will be practically nil, except for slight draping of lace satin or tulle, or chains of mock gems and the waist-line will depend entirely on the choice of the wearer.

Character and Clothes.

To dress well is not merely to buy good clothes and becoming ones. The girl who is best dressed is the one whose clothes represent her, says the New York Times.
 The milliner who trims hats to re- present the soul of the wearer ism t so silly as she sounds. Clothes have, and should have, .. distinct individuality. Knowing ones can tell much of wo- man by, what she wears.
 The woman wao is transformations does not splurge in her clothes. No matter what her wealth, she does not feel the need of proclaiming it on her back
 The whole-souled, honest woman does not deal in shoddy materials or hide ragged underclothes under fine frocks.
 The masculine woman leans to stiff collars, heavy boots, and ultra severe suits, while frills are almost sure to hide dainty femininity. You never finds spots and tattered fnery on the girl who is innatcly neat ind particular, while extra low cut

To Wash Fancy Drapery

The linen should be shrunken before it is stamped or embroidered, especially any piece that is made to special size or particular shape A circular cen ter will not remain round unless it has been shrunken before it has been marked, for linen shrinks moro one way than another.
 When center or any embroidered piece of linen is laundered it should be pressed while damp on the wrong side until thoroughly dry.
 If the ironing board or table is GOV cred with several thicknesses of blank ct the embroidery will then stand out and look very handsome after the piece has been pressed.
 It is best to use piece of flannel when dampening the linen, as it is softer than linen or cotton and freshens up the linen wonderfully. Unless a piece of work has become very much soiled while being worked, it is much better not to wash it before it is pressed.
 When finished the center should be dampened and pressed before the seal

The New Buttons

Buttons will represent the fetish of the woman of fashion this year.
 The favorite examples. in conjunction with the more elaborate gowns, arc fashioned of shot tissue or velvet GOV cred with a little latticcwork of metal thread, while for evening wear there are round buttons about the size of small cherries, incrustcd with pearls mock diamonds or beads.
 With dresses into which the aPis ley designs are cunningly introduced, a great success has been made of large bead buttons composed of all the or. ange, tawny, and brown wallhower tints, which are introduced in the bor. der of the gown, huge examples of the same description being seen on some of the new hats.

gowns or sheath skirts are not sported by the woman who is noted for her purity of feeling.
 The broad, humanitarian woman has certain indifference to the latest thing in fashions, while the woman who is kind at heart does not deal in bargains that are made by sweat shop labor.
 The exaggerated dresser is usually a light weight mentally, and slavish ad- herence to style regardless of suitabili- ty. denotes wearer with more money than originality.
 The sensible girls is never seen in clothes beyond her income-unless they happen to have been given to her, when she always feels apologetic; and the girl you notice more than her clothes usually has a wholesome nature.

Now that corn is no longer palatable .on the cob, it can be prepared by scrap ing out the heart of the grains and stewing in butter.
 Slit each row, and with scraper or the back of silver knife work out the tender part. Put this on in saucepan with plenty of butter, salt, pepper, and enough cream to cover it. Cook until tender, stirring so it does not stick or bn'n. It is better to use double boil CT.
 If preferred, the corn can be cooked in little water, which is then drained oil, and the seasoning of salt, pepper and butter added, emitting the cream or milk,

beethoven AND BUSINESS.
Selling His Music Was Distasteful to
the Great Composer.

An extremely interesting article
which has appeared in a German mu-
steal and theatrical paper under the
above heading contains the following
statement, says London exchange:
Beethoven never bargained in the or
binary way His fees for a compost
ton were demanded briefly and in a
decided manner, and he always pointed
out when mentioning price that he
rather, their equivalent In Austrian
coin. In 1901 he wrote to a music firm
at Leipzig: Now the unpalatable bust
ness part is done with. / wish things
could be managed differently in this
world. There should be only one mu-
sic publisher to whom the artist might
take his work, knowing that he might
ask fee according to his require
ments. AS it is, he has to be partly a
tradesman. Good heavens, how diff
ferent and unpalatable this isv' But
this pious wish was never fulfilled, and
Beethoven had to remain half a
tradesman" to the end.
AS suggestion of how dedications
are occasionally made, the following
letter, which Beethoven wrote to the
same publisher In 1902 from Vienna, is
interesting:
''The lady in question can have a
sonata, and will do my best to carry
out her aesthetic ideas The price is
8 guineas (ducaten), and for this she
may retain the sonata for a year as
her private property. but not for pub
lication At the end of the year the
sonata becomes my property-that is
to say, have the right to publish it,
and If she thinks it an honor she may
ask to have the work dedicated tc
her."
This, from the business point Of view
of the lady in question, is surely
tempting offer. At least. so the art
patroness of today would think if she
had chance Of suggesting to
Beethoven the aesthetic idea" for
sonata. to retain such a treasure in her
own hands for a twelvemonth and
thereafter have it dedicated to her
and all for s guineas!

WHAT IS BEST FOR
SOUTHERN STATES
Letter From President Finley of the
Southern Railway to Gov.
Wilson.

FRANKFORT, KY, Dec. 15.-In a
letter just received by Gov. Wilson,
w. W. Finley, president of the
Southern Railway Company, writes
the following, which the Governor
thinks of general interest to the
South:
81 am glad to note your strong
sympathy with the views which ] ex-
pressed. have given great deal
of thought to the economic problems
which must be solved if the devel
opment of our section is to proceed
under the most favorable conditions,
and If the. Southern States are to at
tain the high level Of material pros
perity to which the variety and rich
ness of their natural resources en-
title them, and | thoroughly believe
that their proper solution can best
be brought about when. those who
are laboring in any field of Southern
development have the support Of
healthy and constructive public opin-
ion. | believe that the more closely
we study the matter the more thor
oughly we will become convinced that
interests which might at first glance
seem to be antagonistic are, in their
last analysis, identical, and that
whatever tends to benefit the COM
munity as whole will generally be
found to be to the advantage of the
individuals composing the commun-
ity.
81 think it is of the utmost i'm
portance to the people of our section
that we should all recognize our in
terdependence of interests; that the
farmer should realize his interest In
the development of the manufactur-
ing town as home market for his
products; that the manufacturer
and merchant should realize the de-
gree to which their progress depends
upon the prosperity of. the farmer
and the maintenance of his purchas
ing power, and that all of our peo-
pie should realize the extent to which
their prosperity is dependent upon
adequate transportation facilities
and efficient highways, including
country roads, railways and water
ways. / believe that this interde-
/pendence Of the interests of men en-
gagged in different callings is coming
to be more generally understood
throughout our section, and that the
result will be the cordial co-opera-
ton of all our people for Southern
advancement"
