Folds and fschus over the should.

Shirring over cords and in tiny

The scarf which matches the gown

The winter promises to be a season
OF extra long. narrow coats over plain.

A gay Beau Brummel frill at the
throat transforms the tailored suit
Into something dainty and feminine.
Black embroidery upon brown Is
smart when the brown is not too dark
to afford a contrast with the black.
Hats OF dark material, lined with
something lighter in color. are among

Sleeveless coats with a color con

Among the popular fabrics are the
new two.tone changeable satins, the
face being OF one color and the back
of another.
one OF the oddities OF the season is
the introduction of the metallic and
spangle effects among the cottons and

PAINT FAULTS.

II IL a common occurrence nova
days TO hear man remark with dis
gust: 1T is impossible to have good
painting done these days; either the
paint is not good or there are no good
painters" This, however, is not true.
There ie good paint, and there are
good painters. But the question is,
bringing them together.
One cannot expect a satisfactory
painting job without pure white lead.
There is n way to make sure you are
getting pure white lead without test
Ing II. See that the keg bears Ma
tional lead Company's famous Dutch
Boy Painter trademark. which is a
positive guarantee Of purity. However,
anyone can test white lead. National

in Portland. Friday night, was arrested
in Washougal yesterday and brought

of his wife Friday, from whom he had
been separated for Is months and un-
