These are halcyon days for elderly
women who like pretty neck frills. tor
the new fall accessories in collars are SO
effective Yet SO simply made that many
of the designs can be easily fashioned Al
home thus greatly reducing their cost.
With all the new styles. save in eXcep-
tionaI models, the general idea is to con
ceal the throat. This is a boon for those
whose necks even more than their faces
indicate age.
Ruches Are a Fad.
Ruches that stand erects are quite as
smart for elderly women's use as foI
girls. though for the former the designs
are less extreme, being rarely higher
than. one inch. These neckpieces are
made from finely pleated rufus of white
crepe or tulle and are sewed into the
edge of the dress collar. making a soft
ening frame for the face.
Seldom are lace and crepe combined in
a ruf1e or neck frill, but what suits best
are full ruffies. not wide. made of SOFT
white or cream lace. These, by no means
Inexpensive when bought ready made.
may be constructed at home very easily
if the lace is box pleated. very close TO-
gether the pleats being more than half
an inch wide. 1t is then sewed into the
dress collar at the top. If caught about
half an inch from the upper edge IT
makes a fiat base and full, haring top
that is most becoming.
A woman who wishes to conceal her
throat by such ruche can manage it by

DAINTY RUCHES AND JABOTS
POPULAR WITH ALL WOMEN

running a small white silk round wire
through the middle of the pleat then
drawing ii to the size of the neck. BY
this arrangement the lace Will be held
against the throat. though the pleats Will
hang softly away.
Lace Jabots Are Still Worn.
For elderly women no neck accessory Is
prettier than jabots made of lace, chiffon,
net or any sheer material that is soft.
White is always more becoming than
black, but when i'm mourning black must
be worn. except when real white crepe
can be chosen. Small jabOtS are more
becoming than large ones for nlatrons or
middle age. though except in size the
models do not vary.
The fashionable little bowknots made
from lace edges are seasonable, and as
there is no age for which these are UNI
suitable old and young may wear them.
They are very easily made by gathering
the lace on the top edge. joining the two
tops together so that the scallops or
fancy part points out. and then tying
knot around the center. Variety is given
these accessories by making the bow
knot of velvet or chiffon. occasionally
putting black one on white edges.
Society women are on the way to the
tabs that were dainty and becoming
with long ends hanging at either side of
the throat. Frequently these ties were
made to go once around the neck
crossing in the middle front. the two
ends lying fiat and pointed outward
slightly. A brooch held the crossing
point in place

He told them he was going where ms

STOCKS ON ELECTION NIGHT.
New York Brokers Will Stay Up to
Accommodate Customers

NEW YORK. October IA score of
Wall street brokerage firms announced
yesterday that they would keep uptown
offices open on election night. Most of the
uptown offices did the same thing two
years ago in the Hughes-Hearst cam
paign when il WIS feared that the mar
ket would open wide in case of Hearsts
election. A similar apprehension us TO
Bryan prompts this years action.
The benefit to customers from an all
night and all day brokerage business is
that it permits the execution of orders
in the London market hours before the
opening here. The difference in time
between the two markets is five hours,
the London market opening at = o'clock.

The Fur Ruche.

What season this is going to he for
throat specialists if aSfashion now to be
seen. in shop windows is adopted. The
mode is nothing. less than a fur ruche.
and it. is the more pernicious because any
woman buying a strip of fur can make
one. 1t consists merely of this band. the
size of the throat. adj as high as can be
worn. topped off with finely pleated silk
or crepe frill The regulation bow ties the
collar at the back.
Nothing could. be more simple. and OBJ
viously. nothing could more closely pro-
tect the throat from al air. Consequently
when the neck that has been sWathed in
this is released from the trimming it will
be sensitive to the least breath Of air, and
sore threats will abound Physicians for
years have deprecated wearing fur at
Che neck at all. but nothing yet put on
the market envelopes it so closely as this
fad. Let us trust few will adopt it.

"FIoWer" Face.

In the meantime not to be wearing a
big ruche or frill of some kind is TO be
incompletely costumed. and. regardless of
whether not they are becoming every

that rarely to be seen flower face that
does not suggest toothache when sur
rounded by one of the high frills. II there
is the least breadth of jaw the ruche en-
phasizes it in truly distressing manner,

MISS AGNES TOBIN
NOW PLAYWRIGHT
Prepares 'Phedre" for English
Stage and Mrs. Patrick
Campbell Will Play 1t
Exquisite Accuracy of Touch Is
Noticeable in Translation
of the Classic

Miss Agnes Tobin. who has won
laurels in the world OF letters since
her first book was published IN 1905,
will shortly appear IN the role OF play
wright. Her preparation OF Racine's
~Phedre." which Miss Tobin has Just
completed. has so captured the fancy
of Mrs Patrick Campbell that, unless
present plans Of the English actress
miscarry. she will open her season
next winter with the play.
Miss Tobin's translation Of Petrarch's 3
sonnets caused a sensation in London's $
literary circles a year or two ago, and
the book has since taken a place
among modern classics The same ex-
quisite accuracy of touch is notice
able in this translation of the French
play, which deals with a Grecian
tragedy. The translator has preserved
the actual spirit OF the original and
has adhered to the form, that OF blank
verse, as we'll
This translation by Miss Tobin will
be the first one to be played. the only
other translation being a purely ac-
curate changing OF the French words
into English.
"Phedre' in the original French is
Sarah Bernhardts favorite play and the
one in which her critics consider her
art the finest. The role should be per-
fectly adapted to Mrs. Campbel1s 8
physique and personality. and she has
already expressed herself as enthusi-
astic over its possibilities.
