FADS AND FASHIONS

NEW YORK, Sept. 23.-Quite lately
the makers of fashion have made eff
forts to bring back into favor the two
piece costume, but judging from the
advanced fall costumes recently i'm.
ported it would seem that they have
not been particularly successful With
the high Empire skirts so little ma.
terial is consumed in the making OF
the waist that women demand the
bodice be dade of the same material
as the skirt. If not, they are willing
to accept some pretty soft fabric that
exactly matches the skirt in color
Even with coat suits the coming sea.
son will see blouses matching the col
or of the cloth used in the suit.
The short, straight skirt, high waist
line and loose blouse with a slightly
low-cut neck, although not new in de.
sign, will be worn all winter. The
newest models are trimmed with
lace embroidery, braid and buttons in
ways that give them quite distinc
tive touch. Heavy silk cord outlines
the joining point of bodice and Skin,
twisted loop, long, tassled ends fall al
most to the hem of the skirt.
The slightly low neck is finished
with pleated collar of handkerchief
linen edged with Cluny Or fine Valen
ciennes lace. There is cravat of silk
tied in a flat bow or four-in-hand hav
ing two narrow ends hanging to the
waist line and weighted with silk tas
sells. Beneath the three-quarter sleeve
is a four-inch undersleeve of net. Such
a frock can be made of satin, silk
serge, worsted or one of the soft cash
meres that will be much worn durina
the fall.

PILOTS OF LIBERTY.

Flawless his heart and tempered to
the core
Who. beckoned by the forward
leaning wave,
First left behind him the firm foot
ed shore.
And. urged by every nerve of sail
and oar.
Steered for the unknown which
gods to mortals gave;
High hearted surely he;
But holder they who first off-cast
Their moorings from the habitable
past
And ventured chartless on the
or storm engendering liberty,
For all earth's width OF waters is a
span,
And their convulsed existence
mere repose,
Matched with the unstable heart
OF man,
Shoreless in wants, mist girt in
all 1t knows,
Open to every wind of sect or clan.
And sudden passionate in GIBBS
and flows.

suit unless all the women present
arose and with one accord cried Go
away crow" Thus the white dove by
it's antithesis to the raven came to be
the bird of nuptials.
A queer idea existing in some sec
lions of the country is that no widow
or widower must be permitted at the
bridal festival unless there also be pre-
sent an old maid or bachelor to coun-
teract the i'll influence of the former.
The belief appears TO be common in
England and America that bride
who chances to eat pickles at the brid-
al meal is doomed to unrequited love
How and when these queer beliefs
and superstitions originated is a
study of limited complexities, yet au-
thorities have been able SO far as
many of the common American SUI
perstitions are concerned to trace
them to the place or districts where
they appear to have originated, since
they are the most in vogue.
For instance three times brides

New England.
before the ceremony you will never be
happy" came from Massachusetts,.
From Alabama came the saying that
it is bad luck for the bride to keep
any of the pins used in her bridal
gown.
OF course it is known that from the
United States has come the remark
limo ri no
will never, never be happy.
The old couplet, Marry in Lent, Live
in Repent, is said to have originated in
New York.
Happy the bride the sun shines on
comes from Northern Ohio.
The other day some one remarked
that they had heard that the bride
and groom should stand in line with
the cracks of the floor and never at
right angles to them.
Double weddings are considered by
many as unfortunate and especially is
this true in Massachusetts,.
Then for the merry-maker who ex-
poets to poke fun at the bride and
groom. Be sure and don't forget to
tie the brides trunk with white rib
bon as this is considered very lucky.
Be advised however that to get the
trunks mixed and affix such an en-
bellishment to the baggage of the
groom will court disaster especially II
he does not have sweet disposition.
l wonder how many brides know
that the truly color for the travelling
gown is gray. Brown isn't so bad, but
gray is the thing worth the brides hap
piness.
If the bride kiss a baby who hap
pens to be at the wedding celebration
happiness will be hers for the rest OF
her days.

toms too numerous to mention.

WHERE REFORM is BA1LY
NEEDED.

If the taxable property Of
Thomas county or of Thomas
vile was turned in at its proper
valuation, the taxes would be de-
creased 40 per cent, says the
Thomasville Times. This rule
holds good elsewhere as well as
in Thomas county.-Macon News.
II there is one reform that the state
OF Georgia needs worse than another,
it is the one along the line suggested
by our esteemed contemporaries of
Macon and Townsville. For some
very remarkable reason, the people of
the state of Georgia or a very large
percentage of them, have. fallen into
the very bad habit of escaping the
payment of state and county taxes,
through the present return system.
Men who stand above suspicion in the
community in which he lives, who is
fair and conservative in his relations
in the business world does not blush
to return his property for taxation at
ridiculously low figures and who
would laugh to scorn offers of a would
be purchaser at the values SO returned.
OF course there are exceptions to this
rule, some of them may be notable
ones, but we venture the assertion
that 80 per cent. of the people of
Glynn county, for instance, would not
sell for cash, their property holdings,
at the figures returned to the receiver
of tax returns of the county. We re-
Ter, of course, to the large property
owner, the fellow with the little house
and lot or the little farm is forced to
return it at fair value, but the fell
low with vast interests, is the tax dod-
ger and who compels the small free
holder to carry his burdens for him
while he does violence to the state
law and to his conscience, as well. if
ne mas any.
Now that the lawmaking body is in
session, we are fondly hoping that
some remedial legislation along this
line will be written into the laws of
the state. A system of tax boards or
equalizers in each county in the state
would solve the problem and would
right wrong aimed at the poor peo-
pie and by which the state is looted
out of thousands and and thousands
OF dollars annually. If this evil were
remedied, the tax rate could easily be
lowered, the public exchequer would
be materially benefited and the state
and each of the counties would be in
better position to make many needed
public Improvements
