the curve of the shoulder and upper
arm. One string of skirt leads weighs
four pounds, and with two OF these
lead strings and various single weights
scattered about the costume, 1t is easy
to arrive at the ten pound estimate.
Foulard silk dresses especially ex-
press the difference between the old
ornate effects and the new simplicity.
This season foulards are delightfully."-
girlish in type with their informal
peasant bodices with pleated neck and
elbow frills and their short skirts
built with little apron overskirts,
double pleated f1ounces or narrow
pleatings set under bias bands. How
much more becoming and graceful are
the loose. seamless bodices, rounded
out at the neck and finished with
Dutch frill or a shallow yoke and
stock of lace, than the elaborate
waists of a few seasons back; tightly
fitted to the figure and trimmed with
deep lace yoke that made the costume
too dressv in style for practical wear!
These loose "peasant" bodies, how
ever, are loose only in the outer ma
terial. Beneath there is invariably
carefully fitted and featherboned lin
ing, and even washable frocks of lawn
and lace are worn over featherboned
slips of thin silk or lawn. 1t is in the
we'll studied arrangement of these loose
outer materials over eXquisitely fitted
and featherboned foundations that sue
cess in the dressmaking art Is
achieved
The banded in skirts are also an ex-
preston of the simple peasant cult.
The peasant skirts, pure and simple,
is of course scant-not to say skimpy-
in it's proportions, many breadths OF
material being for full pocketbooks.
This scant effect is sometimes pro-

duced, rather eccentrically, 1t seems,
by gathering in the skirt and con-
fining it about the knees or below un-
der a broad hem of contrasting fabric
in the gown color. The banded-in
skirts have seen a greater vogue In
Paris, however, than they are likely
to enjoy in this country, though a
number of these trying skirts have
been seen upon the streets here, and in
the more fashionable restaurants.
Straight, limp skirts, however, are the
rule and even when pleatings are used,
or lace flounces, in the case of evening
frocks, the whole outline of the skirt
is kept very fiat and there is scarcely
any fiare toward the foot.
Lingerie frocks, though much
trimmed with handsome lace insertions
and fine embroidered landings and
fiouncings, follow the simple outlines
prescribed by fashion now and trim
mings are rather of the gown than on
it, being set into the batiste or soft
null ground fabric so that they seem a
part of it. Some of the pretty little
marquise white dresses are especially
charming in these simple effects, hav-
ing girlish, graceful lines, fine mater
ials and trimmings well combined in
harmony and good taste.

manner interfere with the flow and
grace of the whole gown.
Hand embroideries of all sorts lend
themselves with particular success to
the new trimming methods and many
dressmakers, when expense is an item
which must be considered by the GUS
toner, give back the shaped section
of material to be hand-embroidered at
home, furnishing themselves the ex-
act shades of embroidery floss to pro-
duce the desired color harmony. BY
this means beautiful frocks are often
obtainable at no more than the or
binary cost of making, where the
dressmaker's price for so much hand
embroidery would be almost prohipi-
tive.
Veilings of chiffon are another means
of expressing simple lines with an ex-
pense BETTING the reputation of
great dressmaker These veilingS or
chiffon in blending tones may cost a
pretty penny especially if there be
fall of chantilly lace between. Most
lovely lines of simplicity are achieved
by some of these intricately veiled
effects, and always and unfailingly the
airv breadths of chiffon are substan-
TALLY at the feet to produce the cor
rect and straight and simple fall.
The system of weighing these "sim-
ple" frocks is an intricate one and
would petrify the little provincial dress
maker who would hold up protest
ing hands in holy horror at the sug-
gestion of ten pounds of lead in

usual in Paris now. The lead weights.

these are stitched along the inner edges

TEMPER SAVING PROCESS

Bodily comfort has much to do with

with the accomplishment of work, and

spirits of one member of the house.
hold upon the other members, it be-
comes a positive sin for a mother, es-
pecially, not to do everything in her
power to keep herself in good physical
condition. The first requirement of
comfort is bodily cleanliness; the sec
ond is comfortable clothing. Women
are too prone to economize on foot
wear, especially for house wear. Often
when mothers feet ache because of
patched stockings or runover Shoes
her temper is stretched to the snap

a clean, soft pair of stockings each
morning, two pairs of really comforta-

tine afternoon, will make brand-neW

because she needs it most, should add
to this time and temper saving pro-
cess a short nap and clean clothing

A SURE SIGN

1t was a frazzled cigar that the young
lawyer rendered an old one in Pember-
ton square.
'I OBSERVE" said the old lawyer,
that you are contemplating matrimo-
ny, in fact, engaged"
How did you know that?" inquired
the youngster. 'It's a secret yet"
II observe" said the old fellow, that
you always resurrect your cigars from
your vest pocket and I have further
observed that they are invariably

MORE WAYS THAN ONE

The woman who answered the door
bell refused to impart her age.
"I'll tell no man how old 1 am,' she
snapped.
"Quite right" replied the tactful
agent. ''Quite right. But there's a
way out of this. Supposing you just
write it down here while I look the
other way, and you will thus avoid tell
ing it to me-"
And she did.

DEATH OF MIR w d SMILEY.
Was a Veteran of the Lost Cause
"A Good Man Gone.

Mr. W D Smiley, a we'll known
and highly esteemed citizen, died at
his home near Lake City Tuesday,
March -, after a short illness fol-
lowing a stroke of paralysis. Mr.
Smiley was 79 years old and was
born and raised in Williamsburg
county. His home was about eight
miles from Olanta. He served
through the War between the States
on the Confederate side and was a
brave and faithful soldier. He was
a member of the tenth S c Reg
iment. He was twice married and
is survived by a wife and several
grown children, ali of whom are
married and have families.
Mr. Smiley was that type of man
whose example is worthy Of emu
!ation. He was a good, quiet,
peaceful citizen and bore the respect
and esteem Of his neighbors, not
only in tie community in which he
lived but everywhere that he was
known.
The funeral was held at the Cooke
burying ground near his home
Wednesday after his death at II
O'Clock and was largely attended by
friends and relatives.
His son-in-law, Mr. T S Smith and
family Of this city, were summoned
to Lake City Tuesday on account Of
his serious illness but he died before
theyreached there. -Foreace Times.

Death OF a Young Lady.

Sadder beyond the usual inevita-
bic melancholy associated with NOR
tai suffering and death was the
passing of Miss Margaret G Ellerbe,
which occurred Friday, March Is, at
the home of Mr. and Mrs H Fox
worth, near Fowler postoffice. The
remains were taken to Sumter coun-
ty for interment at the home of the
deceased, near Rembert postoffice.
The cause of Miss Ellerbe's death
was a relapse from measles. The
young lady came to this county last
fall to teach the Burrows school and
did faithful service until incapaci
tated by the fell disease that ended
her young life. During her last i'll
ness her mother was at her bedside
and Mr. and Mrs Foxworth, at whose
home she boarded, and all the neigh
borhood as we'll were unremitting in
their attentions to the stricken one,
with whom they so deeply sympa-
thized.
Miss Eilerbe was only 19 yeaas old
and her death has cast a gloom over
the whole community where she had
gained many friends by her faithful
attention to her duties and her WIN
ming personality.
