THE NEW REDlNeoTE COSTUME
Made Up in Light coIors, the Effect |,
Altogether Charming.

There is much undoubted style In
the new afternoon costume, consisting
of a long skirt worn, with a long redin.
cote in two shades of the same medi-
um color-not in violent contrasts, but
having just enough difference to make
it noticeable. The redingote is made
up in the lighter shade usually. In
grays, taupe and browns in wood
tones, the effect is charming. These
redingotes outline the figure, but not
exa~ggeratedly. The sleeves are long,
very plain and close-ftting and have
lace ruf1es at the wrists. The neck is
low enough to show the lingerie stock
and chemisette with its jabot of lace
in front, for the V opening has two
broad, fiat, untrimmed revers that
touch the sleeves and lie across the
bust softly. Large satin buttons to
match trim and fasten the fronts in
groups of three. About the knee height
this button fastening ends, but the but
tons continue in threes to the very bot
tom on one side.
One may choose light spring wool
ems, the lovely crepons, the heavier
cheviots, or the silk and wool cloths,
as many ONE have done, and are
wearing their costumes in Florida and
up the coast. Those made Of satin
cloths, and even of lighter satin-finish
materials, have folds and cord pipings
as their finishings instead of the plain,
untrimmed fairness described for the
cloths and the hemmed skirts.-Vogue

No, he doesn't do these things, but

est by the fact that royalty would be
the center thereof. Mrs. Newlywed
was just dying to see royalty; Mr.
Newlywed promised that his bride
should see all the royalty that was tc
be visible on the afternoon in ques

about securing admission cards. The
request might have been fulfilled by
the slightest hint from the legation
secretary to the proper official. But
Mr.. White vas not in that mood.
On the morning of the day for the
function Secretary White sen the fol
lowing little note to Mr.. Newlywed:

asked. The affair is very exclusive.

Scion had been raised a pet, as a

to hard pan through a slump in Ana
conda, and could see his W finish.
So he started reforming as hard as
he could. He had the dollars melted
up and made each N into a dollar
and a quarter. That helped some, as
the poor folks could pay off a $1.25
debt with a daddy dollar. He was the

He had the richer people pay all
the taxes, which made a hit with the
people on the south side that worked
in the mills or did plain huckstering
for a living. But he let only the tax
payers hold Office, which made Mr..

must have been desperately in need OF
recruits when they tackled Represen'
