millinery: and 1t may be mentioned
that the new velvets are no longer
heavy. but are almost as soft and
pliable and as light in weight as satin.
The fashion authorities are quite
emphatic in their assertion that gowns
are to be short. even the evening
gowns: but this edict has not yet been
assented to by the women who are to
wear them. Just at present the more
elaborate costumes are being made
with long. soft. full skirts; however.
there is very little doubt that the
change to short ones will come about
by the latter part of the season. AS
far as mere comfort goes the short
skirt has every advantage over the
longer one, especially for dancing; 1t
takes q good deal OF practice to even
walk without tripping in skirt that
lies an inch or two on the ground. and
unless the long skirts are managed
gracefully they give the wearer any
thing but an attractive appearance.
For dancing the only thing that can
be done is to gather them together
and hold them up with one hand,
proceeding which Is apt to detract a
good deal from the pleasure and free
dom OF motion that should accompany
dancing. But whether the short even
ing gown will or will not meet with
full acceptance is something that can
not be known positively until later in
the season.
The yelled effects which appeared to
be almost a stroke of genius on the
part of the dress makers last season
are used again this fall Some OF the
evening gowns are made of several
overlayings of diaphanous materials,
and the yelling of metal nets and. pas
sementeries with chiffon is again prac-
ticed- Jetted net. trimmed with Jet
passementerie, is one OF the favored
materials for evening gowns, and black
I'm chiffon or chiffon cloth is also popu-
lar. A great many of the gowns have
hand embroidery done directly on them
In designs made especially to fit the
individual needs of each. For this pur-
pose the wood fber silks are being
used a great deal on account OF their
high luster, and IN majority OF cases
the colors are the same as the shade
of the material or a lighter or darker
tone. of It
The princess and semiprincess models

dresses, but as rule draperies OF

and conceal the lines OF the under slip.
Sometimes the skirts are gathered
very simply into a round belt and al
lowed to fall in, straight lines; but
generally this type of dress has some
division of the skirt at or below the
knee. There are many expedients en-
p1oyed by the dress makers TO give the
effect of an overskirt or a skirt In two
portions, when in reality the skirt Is
cut all in one. A favorite method is
to apply a. wide fold resembling deep
hem across it, not parallel with the

Probably the last always seems to US
the best, but however that may be,
there is certainly an excuse for en-
thusiasm in speaking of the present
fashions. There is an unusual richness
in the colors. materials and trimmings
this season, and they are combined
with the most artistic delicacy and
taste. The embroideries on satins,
silks. chiffons and nets are exquisite in
design and their lovely colors ar en-
riched with threads of duh silver and

borders on the edges or the scarfs and
tunics are used to keep down the light
floating fabrics. Scarfs and shawls are
not only worn a great deal as acces-
sories of dress this season, but they
often form an important part OF the
gown itself or its trimming. Some
times the sash is fastened into the
dress stole fashion, sometimes 1t Is
draped around the back of the corsage.
The sashes or scarfs worn around the
skirt at or below the knees are among
the oldest arrangements of the sea-
sons draperies. Very often two sash
ends fall straight from one side of the
waist in front;, and again the scarf is
draped and caught up in the back or

HAIR RAISING
 AUTO HORN HERE
Latest Invention of GhOuliSh Genius
 Has Struck Pine Bluff,

Have you heard the new auto horn That screech which is a sort of a com posite ear thriller, a cross between the dying vail of lost soul and the me lodious voice of the screech owl
 It has struck Pine Bluff and it's hair-raising din is enough to strike terror to the stoutest heart.
 Ever since the automobile was in- vented the devilsh genius who invents wierd noises has striven to outlo him. self in producing an auto horn which would be something different from any other earthly sound. At last he seems to have struck it, and one of his latest productions has been at , tached to Pine Bluff auto.
 Somewhere, back in early history, ! before the war, there is record Of a horn, the blast of which caused the walls of city to fall. That was some ! horn, it must be conceded, but the new auto horn has it beaten as far as the wireless telegraph has the orig 1nal Marathon runner beaten
 One blast of it is enough to drive a man to insanity. while a second or third application would drive man to drink.
 Give us back the original fog horn. the screecher, or the semi-melodious tremolo which graces most of the autos in the city, but spare us this latest invention, which would cause even the tombstones in cemetery tc sit up and take notice.

TOWER OF LONDON.
The Pefee. System by Which It's
 Treasures Are Guarded.

Treasures Are Guarded.
 The Tower of London hes the most perfect system of burglar alarms that has yet been devised.
 From Scotland Yard. from the gov ernor's headquarters and from other places known only to a few respon- sible officials the whole Tower can be closed electrically within few sec onds. Even the ponderous gates at the middle tower. which weigh some tons and through which visitors pass, swing to automatically, and the escape of every one within is instantly barred. At the same time an alarm bell rings to warn wardens, police and soldiers.
 In particular the precautions in the apartment containing the crown jew els are of a most scientifically elabo- rate kind. One of the beefeaters on duty in the room has merely to press q button, whereupou the heavy door closes, the alarm bell below rings, the other gates slam to and lock. and every person within the tower is instantly cut off from the outer world.
 'The man who can get away with any of the crown jewels deserves them" observed a Tower official "From where am standing l could close every important door and gate in the Tower in as short a time as 1t takes to utter these words
 It was mainly to insure the safety of the crown jewels that the system was installed.
 No order had been issued for the closing of the Tower on recent Sat urday when, greatly to their alarm, the visitors found doors locked. bolted and barred against them for about ten minutes. preventing any one leaving the Tower.
 ''The Tower simply closed-that is all," remarked an official. "Who caus- ed 1t to do so we do not know. It might have been Scotland Yard, where the pressing of a button would im- prison every soul within the Tower un- til the police gave the signal for their release. or 1t might have been the governor, anxious to learn whether we were all at our posts. At any rate, 1t was none of the minor officials.
 "In fact, who closed the Tower and why is a secret known only to the highest authorities. There was no alarm, no attempt to seize the crown iewels."-London Mall.

THE CAMERA.
Some of the Wonderful Things of
 Which 1t Is Capable.

Some of the Wonderful Things of
 Which It Is Capable.
 The camera, which divides time into thousandths of second and records the impressions of each, makes perma- nent pictures of events which pass too quickly for the dull human retina to recognize. It is only through tke cam era that the motions of the wings of flying birds and of the legs of swift running animals have been analysed. To the camera the fuzzy drivers of the swiftly speeding locomotives stand out clear cut and stationary, while each flying drop of rain in the driven storm is distinct and seems frozen in Its place. The tarpon fisherman. fa- miliar with the first wild leap of the frenzied fish as 1t casts hook and bait fifty feet in the air, sees first in the finished picture the outstretched gills, the convulsive opening and closing of which had escaped his eye, however closely he may have looked for it.
 Often the eye of the camera will de- cipher documents of which the writing had been substantially obliterated by age. and have successfully copied with the camera the utterly faded pho- tograph of a classmate of forty years previous and thereby been enabled to present to Il grizzled veteran like ness of his curly haired youth. Changes in the pigment of the skin undiscoyerable by the eye appear with distinctness on the sensitive plate, and it is said that ample warning of ap- preaching disease has been thereby given.
 By means of the invisible rays lying beyond the violet of the spectrum ob- jects may be photographed in the dark ness and, with the aid of the so called x rays, through substances otherwise opaque. When from the darkness of night and storm the forked lightning flashes, the camera makes a vivid and permanent picture of each fiery trail. Creatures that travel by night can be '.caught" In the brief blaze of q mag nesium charged pistol, the flash Of which is of too short duration for the creature to move or the dull human eye to recognize the subject-A. w.

JAPAN A LAND OF COLOR.
Farms of Two or Three Acres Divided
 Into Many Tiny Fields.

Farms of Two or Three Acres Divided
 Into Many Tiny Fields.
 Land Is so scarce in Japan and the people so numerous that farm rarely consists of more than an acre or two. These little farms are divided up into tiny fields. During the season of the wear in which we made our journey one of these fields was filled with sprout- ing barley, light green in color; anoth- CT field, perhaps the next, with vetch, lavender colored, cloverlike fodder; neighboring field with dark green grass from the seed of which lamp oil is manufactured; another with the pale yellow flowers of the mustard, and scattered here and there fields filled with what looked like variety of lily, some white, some red, some yellow, but all equally brilliant.
 Then to get the complete picture you must imagine patches of Towering azaleas dotting the roadside; towering, round topped camellia trees breaking the sky line with frequent splashes of bright green; usually in the shade or these trees houses with white plastered walls and red tiled roofs; about the more pretentious of these houses white plastered walls, above which appeared profusion of palms, roses and strange native flowers, and in the doorways of the garden walls kimono clad Japa- nese girls, the klmonos as many and as gayly colored as the garden that framed them.
 I have travelled in but one other country that is so gayly colored, and that was some few years ago, when, in the company of a number of other youngsters and an evil smelling magic lantern, used to make frequent visits to the Land of Primary Colors.- George MacAdam in Outing Magazine.
