"You should, you know. You should go

always somewhat undermined by cold.
Then why not give your head the same

A novelty in perfume bottles is a low,

Though the bottle is only three inches

girl would value a muH or scarf holder.
As such a rest, a coat hanger (wire)
will do as a foundation. The ends must
curve upward instead Of downward. and
the wire must be covered with wadding
sprinkled with cedar chips and lavender.
A casing of ribbon should be drawn
over the padded portion in shirred effect
Rosettes of the ribbon must finish the
ends.
ANY one whose time for sewing Is lin
tied could make dozen or more Of these
holders in a short period Of time. These
hangers would be excellent presents to

The newest muffs are enormous.
Suede is favorite material for belts.
Velveteen gowns are all the rage this
year.
Cravats of beadwork with tassels are
new and odd.
Aigrettes and paradise plumes will be
worn more and more.
Ostrich plumes come principally in
black, white and gray.
One-piece frocks of serge OF cloth,
with long, close sleeves, will be worn
under fur jackets this winter. They are
trimmed with satin, embroidery, buttons
and beadwork, and invariably display
the high waist line.
The vogue of heretofore inexpensive
furs-opossum, raccoon, muskrat and
are used to trim frocks of every material
this season, as well as for muffs and
scarfs.
Short. straight-cut jackets and narrow
skirts are the rule.

MACk'S OPINION.
Democratic Leaders Idea Of Cause Of
Result of Maine Election.

Buffalo. N. Y. Sept. 13.-Chairman
Norman f. Mack of the Democratic
national committee. commenting on
the Maine election said in a statement
issued here today:
Yesterdays election was fought out
on the great national questions of the
day and it is clear that the people are
to triumph over the evils of national
government which the Democracy has
been fighting for years. Those evils
may be summarized as the domination
of national policies by the special priv
ilege interests; the welfare of the few
at the expense of the many.
The tide has turned in Maine and,
will not stop until it has reached Cali
fornia. In the last national election
the Republican party promised the
people relief from the oppressive con-
ditions occasioned by the Dingley tar
if.
Instead Of reduction they gave.
the people an increase and all the
speeches of the President and Vice
