crate than if merely finished in the
regulation style of such long standing
as has been the fashion for several
years.
Trimmings are to be carefully con-
sidered in these latest fashions. Braid
ing and embroidery are all-important
items to be considered. The narrow
soutache braid, being still the most
popular, is used in many different de-
signs in straight lines and in intricate
patterns. The same shade of color or
one shade lighter or darker gives the
smartest effect-a contrast in color be-
tween braid and material not being
popular A tan pongee of the heavy
quality is extremely smart braided
deliberately with the same color SOU
tache. A queer shade of raspberry
pink has bands Of plain taffeta or linen
with an elaborate braiding In soutache
of the same shade, but the trimming
is only seen on the sleeves and the
front of the coat. The skirt is quite
plain. On the tan or natural color the
braiding is both on the back and front
of the coat, on the sleeves and around
the bottom of the skirt. Braiding or
bands of chiffon is one of the popular
trimmings that is effective, and is used
on the long coats and cloaks as well
as on the princess and empire styles.
The waistcoats, collars and fronts of
the new coats also provide an excel
lent opportunity for the elaborate
braiding, and often the waistcoat is
the most expensive part of the entire
costume.

On the summer coat you may use two
or three very large, snowy buttons on
the front, but il you are trimming a
gown with them you must have doz'
ems of small buttons arranged in
groups or designs. Neither are plain
buttons used except on severely tai
lored suits. The crocheted button is
most popular.

"Coppering" Their Bets.

A few weeks ago the Republi-
can press of the country was busy
explaining how undigniied it was
of Mr.. Bryan to make phonograPh
records in order that he might
get his views on political ques-
tions before more people. and
about the time the papers thought
they had made a pretty strong
case along comes Mr.. Taft and
elevates the phonograph to an
eminence be6tting recognition
from candidates for the presiden-
cy by talking to one himself.
Then the Republican papers
said Mr.. Bryan displayed a lack
of dignity by persisting in his
speaking tours and running
around the country looking for
votes" Mr.. Taft is preparing to
add dignity to this method of
campaigning by announcing that
he is ready to begin a speaking
tour and it is announced that he
may go from coast to coast.
These same papers have ridi-
culed Mr.. Bryan for the last
twelve years for favoring and ad-
vocating such measures as the in
come tax. independence of the
Philippines. tariff reform and rail-
road regulation. President Roose-
velt's position On these questions
has made them popular and they
are now viewed in a very favor

many Republican newspapers.

In brief the same. situation that con-
fronted the city when it came to re-
paving Kansas avenue is duplicated in
a way in the repaving of West
Eighth. 1t took considerable work,
talk and prodding to finally line up all
of the property owners for the repay
ing of Kansas avenue, they thought
that the city should do the work and
that the cost should be borne by the
whole city. The legal obstacles were
removed and it was shown that the
city at large could not be made to
pay and that the property owners
would have to bear the expense.
The same feeling appears to exist
among the property owners on West
Harrison and Van Buren, streets, they
think that the city at large should
pay for the repaving and they do not
welcome the suggestion that the cost
should be met by them which of
course is natural. But in the mean
time by dalliance the paving is going
to pieces. Neither side is making a
move. Having the experience of Kan
sas avenue the only end can mean that
the expense must be borne by the
property owners and that the longer
they wait the more it is going to cost
them for the concrete base, costly as
it is. is wearing away and will have
to be replaced
The only property owner coming
right out and stating that it would
oppose the repaving is the Grace
Cathedral church, though as indicated
several others are not inclined to view
with favor the circulation of a
petition.
