II HERE is a charming simplicity in
all frocks for young girls this sum
mer, the many founces, rutfies, frills
and ruchings which formerly adorned all
muslin gowns being now things of the
past A simple lace collar or band of
insertion at the throat shaped to form
Los Angeles herald., 1909-08-01

frocks have piece of betting at the
waist line, or if there is only. band of
fine lace about the waist this is held in
neatly by three to five pieces of wide
feather honing. This betting, which has
been introduced only little more than a
year. has made n remarkable difference in
the fit and effect of all thin as well as
heavy dresses, and is now as important a
part of a schoolgirls morning dress as for
the most close fitting tailor costume.
Los Angeles herald., 1909-08-01

n nee a girl is sufficiently tall and
can wear a tailor made suit becom-
ingly her gowns will be of somewhat
different style from the Gumpe dresses
and frocks of that description generally
becoming to girls up to fifteen or sixteen
years of age. The lines of all coat and
skirt costumes are such this year that,
although somewhat severe, this style of
dress is not at all too old for a girl of
sixteen, and nowadays coats and skirts
to match in linen or pique are smart for
very young girls even though the skirt
docs not reach to the shoe tops and the
coat is a loose back REFER.
Guimpe and suspender dresses in linen.
piqu6, duck and even lawn are worn up 10
twelve or fourteen years of age. hut for
older girls simple frocks of a princess
model buttoning either in front, on one
side or down the back, finished with
turned down lace or embroidered collar
and leather belt, are more in vogue. In
some of these models the belt consists of
a stitched band of the material, while
others are finished with a wide belt of
suede or patent leather.
For both afternoon and evening dotted
swiss is once more fashionable. and
trimmed only with a fine point desprit
embroidery the dresses of this material
are all exceedingly pretty. Organdie, ba-
tiste, lowered silk mousseIne and soft
clinging null are all attractive for sum
mer gowns, but in short dresses the fabrics
with so little stiffness as swiss and or
candle are perhaps better to select than
the null and too fine batiste.
Los Angeles herald., 1909-08-01
LOWERED materials

r. LOWERED materials - organdie,
null, lawn, with pink the DOM
inant coror-are more in favor than
the plain shades of pink or blue re-
leyed with insertions or appliqued me-
dallions of lace. A flower designs calls
for but little trimming, and for that rea-
son if for no other is often desirable.
The waist, IL for evening wear, should be
finished only with wide or narrow lace
insertion, Nalcnciennes and baby Irish
being about equally popular, forming a
fiat yoke, and with square cut neck and
perhaps below the yoke some few bands
Los Angeles herald., 1909-08-01

at the feet there is considerable flare.
A necessary part of girls summer
outfit is Il good fitting princess slip IL

of the lace running down the waist be-
tween bands of narrow tuoks. The
sleeves reach just below the elbow and
are quite narrow, finished off with a fiat
cuff fashioned like the yoke. The yoke
should be either square cut or rounded
and be of correct depth to reach just to
the low neck slip underneath.
For evening a colarless gown is ex-
tremely pretty and most suitable, for
this fashion has now become so popular
that it has burst all bounds of reason
and good sense, and a girl who restricts
this so comfortable form of dress to af-
ternoon and evening wear, never going
without n collar when in the city or in
travelling, will be sure to be in good
style Naturally the high boned collar is
more trouble, for any kind of standing
collar must be made to stand up well and
fit perfectly, but it may be noticed that
n good collar is characteristic of a well
dressed girl
Los Angeles herald., 1909-08-01

"a OURNING costumes for very young
w girls are always somewhat of prob
lem. In summer all white is now
considered appropriate for even deepest
mourning, but the frocks must be of the
simplest, without any lace or embroidery
trimming.
White organdie trimmed with inser-
tons of net or point d'esprit lace or with
white crepe is permissible even in deepest
mourning for afternoon or evening wear
for very young girl. Sheer white lawn
or null made up with the Utmos, sim
plicity, and even white dotted swiss, is
correct for summer afternoons.
For tennis or golf n black belt, tie and
hat will not give the effect of second
mourning, but will serve to distinguish
between the severe style of white dress
that is to-day so regularly worn during
the forenoon.
One or two black lawn or batiste
dresses. a black linen and black rajah
or pongee coat and skirt costume will
be found necessary in a summer mourn
IinC outfit for young girl. White pongee
is permissible for lighter mourning and
coat and skirt costume in this material
are much in vogue still.
! 1t is becoming more and more the GUS
tom to wear the deepest of mourning for
a short while. but 70 make the term Of
deep mourning very brief. and this APP
plies to young girls fashions even more
than for older persons In hot weather
! it is naturally impossible to wear all
black, and since blao', and white combina-
tions. as well rs grays and mauves, are
Sc much in -ogue for everyday wear when
not in mourning. the onetime second
mourning is now scarcely regarded. All
white is considered more correct than
black and white in deepest mourning. and
as soon as the period of all black has ex-
! pired colors may once more be donned
Children, however, nay wear the lighter
mourning, as mauve. gray and blac,; and
white combinations, to designate tighten
ing mourning, since these are colors which
they would not wear under ordinary cir
cumstances.
For travelling all black must he worn
and at all times in city black is obliga-
tory with crepe for near relative If the
girl is more than sixteen years of age.
For out of doors, however, even in the
afternoon or evening the cool organde
frock, with its simple trimming of net or
white crepe, is quite within the strictest
| limits of good taste.

EXECUTIVE CLEMENCY

God forbid that we should
ever protest against a judicious
exercise of the pardoning power.
Poor human nature is so weak,
and our desperately wicked
hearts so prone to evil, that no
man can feel certain that under
the same circumstances he, in
stead of the convict, might not
have been wearing the stripes.
Remember the exclamation of
John Newton, of England. who
on seeing felon pass by his way
to the gallows, exclaimed,
But for tie grace of God, l
would be in that mans place!"
The remark is profoundly true.
Let any of us be put in the shoes
of the criminal, and he would
probably have committed the
crime.
This being so, we should in :.
cline our hearts to mercy. In
very many cases, the felon de-
serves pity, and if given second
chance will become a good citizen.
In my own career as lawyer,
| was often called to the defense
of homicides, whose deeds were
apparently so heinous that they
had to be speedily taken away to
a distant prison to avoid the mob
violence of an outraged communi-
ty. lean recall but single case of
that kind in which the homicide,
after his acquittal, did not be-
come a chastened man and live a
creditable life. Once. in what
appeared to be a peculiarly de
liberate and malignant case,
prosecuted a white girl for the
assassination of her paramour, =
whom she lured to her window
that she might shoot him from
the dark room in which she stood,
and convicted her. But after
the battle was over, certain little
scraps of evidence began to APP.

peal to me, and certain tones of
the young woman's voice, and a
certain expression that had crept
into her eyes during the trial,
and particularly the manner in
which she had answered one of
my questions, made it utterly
impossible for me to continue
with the prosecution. At a
second trial, she was acquitted,
and she married not long after
wards, and has lived a useful,
respectable life.
Such experiences, and the
mellowing which comes to all of
us as we journey toward the
sunset, has brought me to the
conclusion that capital punish
ment is seldom justifiable; and
the law should never, save in
the very worse cases of wilful,
deliberate, unprovoked crime,
close the door of hope to the
criminal. The Jeffersonian.
