FOR THE WOMEN

are to be used for hats, plumes and
trimmings.
Velvet bids fair to become exceed
ingly popular, both for street and
evening wear.
Swathed draperies with fringed
borders, long pendant sashes ending
in silk fringe, scarfs and mantles
with fringe trimmings are numerous.
Children's millinery shows more
of actual style than in many years,
appearing in dainty little peaked
hats, with simple but tasteful trim
ming of contrasting colOrs.
Manufacturers of princess slips
have brought out very complete lines
for spring. as they feel that indica-
lions are excellent for a wide dis
trihution of these garments, during
January and February, says the Dry
Goods Economist. The messaline and
satin numbers will be featured for
early fall for wearing under dresses
developed in semi-diaphanous mate.

making good showing of these colored
slips.

To recall benefits we have bestowed

He who is warm thinks all men so.
We are most assuredly to retain
the slim, clinging draperies of the
First Empire that have proved so sue
essfuf during the past twelve months.
There is new version of the kim
ona waist which is draped in soft
folds SO that there seems to be no
break between bodice and sleeves.
The new >vening sets of scarf and
muffs are all delicate tints of the
rainbow, and have hints of ostrich in
their fluffy marabout depths.
Flounces are again in fashion for
walking skirs of heavy fabrics, but
they are without fulness. The divi-
sion at the side continues popular.
Metal fringe is much employed on
evening dresses and bead rfinges are
also seen.
Round woven beads dyed in color
are novel and attractive in embroid-
cred trimmings.
Tailored suits and costumes are
showing fringe on the tunics and un-
der petticoats.
Among most recent models white
cloth furnishes quite striking fea-
ture as trimming for dark colored
ailored suits. A close grained serge
of very dark blue had single rever
and shawl collar of white corduroy.
the very heavy, wild ribbeeed kind,
and the coat was fastened by one
large plain button of ivory, trimmed
with black. Another suit of heavy
black tweed had similar trimming of
white broadcloth. Plain uncolored
glass buttons were used to decorate
coat and skirt, with large viii tie
trimmed diagonally slashed button
holes.

Virginia CoaI

Virginia is one of the oldest coal
mining States in the Union, showing
small output as far back as 1922.
and, although not now regarded as
one of the great coal producers, the
output was over six and one hall
million tons in 1910.
In 1850 the production was 80,
600 tons. and at that time only two
States stood above Virginia. While
other States were forging ahead the
increase in Virginia was slow until
about 1895, when 1,369, 324 tons
were produced. In 1900 the produc-
tion was 1888, 754 tons; in 1907 il
was 4,275,27 tons, and in 1910 il
was 6,507, 997 short tons, the great
est in the history of the state.
