Just InnaQine!

One of the newest vogues in social cir
cles in London for engaged men is the
wearing of gold bangles above the elbow.
1t is not likely to be adopted by the en-
gagged men on this side of the Atlantic.
New York society men particularly have
never taken kindly to such fads. Some
Of them have been known to wear bands
Of gold. presented by their fancee. on the
upper part of the arm, out of sight, so
that few of their intimate friends were
aware of It, In England this summer the
bangle, given by the young woman. is
locked on the arm. and the summer
sports-golf. tennis and rowing-have re-
vealed just how many athletic youths are
about to become benedicts. The fad all
turns on a fashion-rather late in the
day to discover it-set by the king. who
it appears since his marriage has always
worn a heavy gold bangle on his wrist.
A dozen or fifteen years ago there were
some men In this prosaic country who
were intrepid enough to attempt the wear
ing of the gold bangle. but the quibs and
jests Of their friends soon weaned them
Of the fad.

New ButtOnhOIeS.

The extremely large buttons used on
coats and skirts have brought out a new
way OF cutting the buttonholes, for now,
instead Of being just straight slit, verti-
cal or horizontal. they slant upward, and
the button is sewed so that the lower end
of the buttonhole just reaches it.
This is quite an improvement for but
tons cannot easily slip out of these holes

inexpensive Fr0ck.

When one wishes to make up a frock
from the inexpensive striped or colored
lawns in a simple model there is moth
ing prettier than a skirt pulled into the
belt and tucked about the bottom; the
waist made in baby effect and topped by
a perfectly plain yoke made from white
dotted swiss. The outer edge can be cut
into battlements and trimmed with lit
tie lace frill; the sleeves. elbow length
confined with cuffs matching the yoke
This combination will be much prettier
than a cheap lace.

WANTS DAMAGES.

Henry Anthony has commenced suit
in common pleas court for $3019 dam
ages against William Street. The
plaintiff alleges that on September 16,
1900, the defendant falsely and ma
liciously and without any reasonable
cause charged him before Justice of
Peace L. NJ. Barrick with having con-
cealed in his own dwelling house or
premises a weather strip, composed of
zinc, identical with the Chamber
lain Weather strip, thereby infringing
upon the rights of the company. He
further says that Constable w. H. Lit
tie of September 16, 1908, in company
with the defendant. searched for the
above described property and in pres
ence of the defendant seized and car
ried away one galvanized weather
strip from shop of plaintiff and that
on November 4, 1908, said action and
proceeding was dismissed for want of
prosecution. The plaintiff claims that
the above action taken has injured his
character in the sum of $4,000 for
which he seeks judgment with the $19
expenses incurred during the trial in
Justice Barrick's court.

ONE WEEK
For Holiday Vacation at
Schools This
Year
CLOSE ON THURSDAY

On account of the delay in opening
the Canton schools at the beginning
of the present term, it is proposed
by the board of education to shorten
the Christmas vacation this year, in
order that the summer closing will be
less advanced into the season. In
stead of the usual two weeks vacation
which the pupils are allowed at the
holidays, the schools will remain clos.
ed this year from Thursday evening
December "a, until Monday morning
January 4, 1909. This lapse of time
includes II days.
The delay in opening the schools
was due to the action of Inspector
Morgan of the department of inspec-
ton of workshops, factories and pub
lie buildings, it requiring over a week
after the regularly established time
for the opening of the schools to tenn
porarily reGdjust matters. AS it is,
the scheduled time for the closing of
the schools next summer is the 18th
of June, and if the extra week in
the Christmas vacation were allowed,
it would delay the closing until June
20. While this arrangement may not
be just in keeping with the desires
of the school children, better and
more satisfactory results can be ac-
complished in the schools during the
cool weather, than during the sultry
summer heat.
All of the other vacations on the
school calendar will be allowed in ac-
cordance with the annual custom. One
week of rest, recuperation and fun is
to be given the students during the
latter part of March and the early
part of April. The other days of va
cation will be Washington's Birthday
and Decoration day.
