1t has been long time since the
separate white blouse was as popular
as now. Paris was making them by
the hundreds in September, and the
American houses have followed suit.
Women are possibly tired OF the chif.

worn SO many times without being
freshened up. Such blouses don't
wash, and few women can AFFORD to
have them cleaned after every few

True, there are some} suits worn lat
certain times that demand a blouse
of the same color, and there is no dim

white lingerie blouses merely swells

amount of money to pay for the re-

GETTING $4,000 BOOTY.
MAKE ESCAPE IN AUTOMOBILES
Guests and Hostess Are Stripped Of
Jewels at Points Of Revolvers.-
Handbags Rifed, Too, and About
$3.50 Cash Taken.

New York, Jan. 21.-An unusual
holdup took place in q fashionable sec
ton of uptown New York.
Mrs. Frances Elliott, wealthy 90
ciety woman, had been entertaining Z
small party of guests in her home on
West Fifty-sixth street, and her guests
were just putting on their wraps and
saying their good-nights. when five
rough looking men pushed through the
open door.
With drawn revolvers. the intrudera
lined up the hostess and her guests in
train robber fashion, and proceeded to
go through the pockets of the men and
the handbags of the women, now and
then passing to remove tempting bit
of jewelry.
Mrs. Elliott and her friends were SO
thoroughly frightened by the threats
and rough actions of the robbers that
they made no cutlery until the five had
left the apartment. Then Mrs. Elliott
called up police headquarters. Later
she came in person to the detective
bureau and was closeted with Capt
Murphy. The robbers got $3.50 in
money and jewelry valued at 81 800.
The police believe that the five made
their escape in an automobile.
