Fads for Women.

Indian articles are popular this season
and undoubtedly large number of them
will be sold for Christmas presents.
The moccasins are attractive and they
come in all sizes. from cute shoes to fit
d year old baby to sizes for groWn-upS.
Small girls will be delighted with a red
Indian doll as an addition to their doll
families, and oldsr ones will appreciate
pretty baskets of Indian work.
These come fitted with sewing baskets,
glove and handkerchief boxes and also
as cases for wells.
AS a rule. women like to choose their
outer apparel. as 1t may be termed which
includes neckwear belts, hand Aerchiefs,
blouses, etc, as we'll as the larger Orna-
ments, but among the articles IOr per-
sonal use that are apt to be appreciai ed
as Christmas presents are silk p ttlcoat.S,
silk stockings and a pretty neglige, bOu-
doir slippers and dainty, handmade un-
derwear.
In fact, probably quite as much or more
might be- spent for a collar. jabot or a
blouse that would not bring half the
pleasure to the recipient.

Lace Flower Pins.

The latest in dainty and charming pins
for wear on collars and cuffs is lace
flower crocheted around an ordinary
small safety pin The flower is usually in
violet form, though in white, and stands
out stiffly from the pin.
When crocheted to violet pin. it may
be used to fasten jabots of flowers, and
it is just as pretty, though not quite so
new, as applied to the hatpin. A set of
these lovely white lacepins-three for
collar, two for cuffs-two hatpins and two
stickpins would be the pretties present a
bride or a traveller to Europe ever re-
ceived.
The bar of the safety pin Is crocheted
over and over to hide the steel In black,
with black pins. they solve the question
of what to use in mourning.

Toronto Bank Denies Liability
IN Insurance Case.

Albany, Jan. N-Superintendent Hotch-
kiss of the State Insurance Department
announced tonight that he had been ad-
vised by Chief Examiner Hughes, from
Toronto. that at a meeting of the directors
of the Farmers Bank of Canada to-day
resolution was passed formally denying
liability on the s150,oo0 certificate of deposit
issued by William r. Travers, general man
ager of the bank, to the Peoples Mutual
Life Insurance Association and League of
Syracuse which was recently taken over
by the department. 1t is understood that
the action of the directors was on the
grounds that no money ever passed to the
bank from the insurance association and
that the certificate of deposit to the credit
of the Peoples Mutual Life Insurance AS
sociatior. and League was signed by only
one officer.
Superintendent Hotchkiss says that not
withstanding the action taken by the bank
directors he will continue his efforts to
compel the payment of the certificate by the
Canadian bank.
'It was also reported from Toronto"
said Superintendent Hotchkiss, that the
Farmers Bank Of Canada to-day notified
John Tevis, the promoter, who sought to
secure control of the Peoples Mutual Life
Insurance Association and League, that
the 25o0O shares OF Big Vein copper stock,
claimed by him to have been put UP as col
lateral security TO a loan for S1500o0, were
held by such bank subject to his order
1T will be recalled that General Man
ager Travers about ten days ago gave an
examiner Of the Insurance Department
signed statement, In which he claimed that
the transaction was only partially COM
peted when the Insurance Department
moved against the Peoples Mutual Life
Insurance Association and League, and
that 1t would have been completed only
by the exchange of the certificate Of de-
posit for the capital stock of the Farmers
Bank of Canada in an equivalent amount,
which he claimed was to have been made
on January Is, 1910. The loan of s150,000 to
Tevis and deposit of the same amount
by the Insurance Association seem not TO
have been entered upon the books Of the
bank at ALL
