Definite Actiaon Deferred.

Der of Commerce Saturday afternoon to consider the advisabiity of making for nal protest to the Louisville and Nash vile railroad against what many con- slider an insufficient expenditure in re- modelling the Annston union passenger station, definite action was deferred. h. asmuch as the Southern contemplates the building of a separate station and as the Seaboard has not agreed to enter the union station. some considered that $l6- GOO was sufficient for the demands. How ever, another meeting will be held soon, at which time the getting of the three roads together for the purpose of erect ing a union station that will be sufficient unto the needs and do the city credit will be gone over.

Return to Archaic Flowers.

There is a wide return to the use
ST archaic flowers. These are en-
broidered on wide bands OF satin in
silk and crystals. They look like old
Florentine work. The bands are used
as panels down the back and front OF
the gown, as a girdle and as a hem.
An interesting model that shows the
use of these archaic flowers is of
cherry-colored net. 1t is lined with
liberty satin in the same shade. 1t Is
made of one piece, and there is a
marked deviation from the present
styles in that the lining is tighter and
the outside fuller.
Over this tulle princess frock is a
stole panel, back and front, OF cherry.
colored satin. with the archaic flowers
done in colored silks and crystal
rubies.

Washable Ruchinq.

Washable ruching may be made at
nome. and is very likely to wear bet
ter than the kind sold in the stores.
Take two widths of footing, of the sort
used formerly for edging handker-
chiefs. Baste the opposite edges to-
gether leaving a quarter inch differ
ence at the top, and gather into tiny
plaits, on a narrow band. This may
be done by hand, or more easily, on a
machine rufiie. After washing. starch
slightly, iron and pinch up into little
plaits. 1t will be much prettier. how
ever II one owns and uses regular
fluting machine. This is not inordi-
nately expensive and comes into con-
stant use, for lace edges. rufiles down
the front of shirt waists etc, and 1t
certainly gives one a trimmer, more
tailormade appearance.

SEPARATE WAIST STILL HERE
Has by No Means Gone Out of FASH
ion, Though the Conditions
Are Different.

Emphatic are the assertions to the
effect that the separate waist has
gone out of fashion, that the lingerie
and the lace waist are no longer
smart and that a waist of the same
material as the rest of the gown is
obligatory when the gown is not all in
one, on the princess order.
With the coming of summer wealth
er it must be realized that provision
must be made for quite different con-
ditions than in winter Unlined or
the thinnest of lined waists are essen
tial to comfort. The white lingerie or
lace waist worn with a colored skirt
is not becoming to many women, but
there are fancy nets and chiffon waists
that are both becoming and cool.
And be it known on best authority
that with the tailor costumes, skirt
and coat to match. the beloved
lingerie and the lace waists will be

Fad In Facing the Hem.

A fad of the season is to face the
hem of the skirt on the inside with a
wide band of the material. This must
be done very carefully or 1t may give
the skirt a clumsy appearance. In
these days when few petticoats are
worn this gives the skirt a limp,
draggy appearance at the bottom,
which is to be desired. For women
who dislike skirts of this sort a few
plated models have been provided,

THE WINNING OF
MARGARET MERVIN
Copyright. by ]. B. Lippincott Coz
By CLIFFORD HOWARD

Fitzgerald carried two notes in his
pocket. One was from an acquaint-
ance, young lawyer of the city, ask
him to call upon him on matter of
personal business. In response to this
request he was walking briskly to-
wards the lawyers office. What it
was Cotton wanted to see him about
he did not know. AS matter of fact,
he did not care. His mind was too
fully engaged with the emotions in
spired by the contents of the other
note.
This was dainty epistle from Mar
garet Mervin. the girl who had be-
witched his heart and turned his head
after their first days acquaintance
ship at the seashore, five months be-
fore. AS he hurried along his brain
was awhirl with troubled and exciting
thoughts, for the missive he had re-
ceived from her to-day was enough to
upset the equanimity of any lover:
My very dear Friend: Your avowal has
touched me most deeply. But what is a
bit of helpless femininity to do when
her heart is large enough for only one?
Is 1t not better to remain friends with
both? Then let me always be
Your sincere friend,
MARGARET.
Fitzgerald was angry and Inundated;
angry, because some other man had
evidently come across the pathway of
his hearts aspiration; and humiliated,
because she had turned him of so
airily; and this, too, after initiating his
hopes by ready acceptance of the
many tokens of alteration he had be-
slowed upon her, including a weekly
trip to Philadelphia that he might once
in seven days hold her hand in his for
a moment and spend few brief hours
in her enchanting. presence.
He was still ruminating when he ar
rived at the lawyers office. He opened
the door hastily and walked in. Cotton
was alone. STOPPING over his desk in
the center of the room, he did not at
once look up.
How are you, Colton?" inquired
Fitzgerald, tucking his cane under his
arm and preparing to draw of his
gloves. 1--WE dropped in in answer
20 your note. What can do for you?"
Pushing back his chair. Cotton rose
and acknowledged the presence of his
caller with a curt nod. Il thank you
