BEADS OF ALL SORTS WORN
No Article of Personal Adornment Is
More Popular Than Strings of
These Trimmings.

Since the early days, when the an
clients first wore strings of beads.
they have become a permanent arti-
Gle of personal adornment.
Bean chains, ranging from the sup
erb rope of pearls to the amber, jet
and crystal necklaces, are festooned
around the throat, and add their beau
ty to the toilette. The short string of
pearls is as fashionable as ever, and
bead trimmings are enjoying a very
prominent place.
Many of the smartest evening gowns
are trimmed with bead plaques. The
beads are SO closely set together that
there is no space between them. They
are wrought upon canvas in the old
fashioned mat and screen designs.
These show baskets of flowers and
birds unreal looking in their strange
coloring.
The. peasant fashions are much in
vogue, and the suspenders are deco
rated with beads and embroidery.
The most beautiful bead trimmings
are those that represent the ara
besque designs or black chiffon, crepe
de chine, net OF taffeta.
Among the smartest evenings gowns
are those showing heavily beaded
tunics over foundation of chiffon.

TURKEY MAKES DEMANDS.
Continued Mobilization of Troops
Causes Disquiet over Peace
OutIo0k

London.-The speed with which the
Turkish government had decided upon
counter-peace proposals leads to the
assumption that they will be wide
from the demands of the allies and
that there will be prolonged process
of bargaining before the conference is
ended
The Turkish press is unanimous in
demanding the rejection of the allies
demands.
Austria's failure to demobilize is a
greater source of disquiet than the
task of arranging peace. This is more
especially the case with the Montene-
grin delegates who were excited over
the rumor that Austria, having OBJ
tanned what she wants from Servia,
wishes either to prevent Montenegro
from taking Scutari by Incorporating
it in Albania, or to make the Monte
negrin occupation of Scutari the price
of Austrian occupation of Mount Lowe
hen.

TAKE CARE OF YOUR LOOKS
Much Wisdom Conveyed in This Ad-
vice That a Woman Gives to
Her Sisters.

One reason why so many women
begin to "go off, in their looks after
thirty or even earlier, is a growing
habit of carelessness about their ap-
pearance. In particular, the woman
that marries and has children is very
likely to fall into the notion that ut
doesn't matter how mother looks" In
deed, have known women who SEEM
ed to consider it a part of their duty
to their families to get old and ugly
as soon as possible.
No woman can make a more fatal
mistake. A woman wants to be proud
of her children, and her children have
an equal right to be proud of her A
woman who has become a wrinkled,
faded, humped-up, dowdy, back num-
ber" at forty may get a certain toler-
ant affection and perfunctory graft
tude from her family, but she can
never inspire the admiration and re-
spect and willing obedience that
every child should be able to render
to his mother.
Depend upon it, excellent wife and
devoted mother, If you find yourself
too busy to take daily bath, too busy
to keep your scalp clean and your halr
brushed, too busy to go to dentist
at the first sign of decaying teeth, too
busy to massage the blackheads out
of your skin and manicure your nails
and provide yourself with suitable, be-
coming clothes. then you are absolute
ly too busy. You are either being i'm
posed upon by some shirker, or else
Won are Voluntarily sacrificing more
important to a less important consid-
Grafton.
If it comes right down to choice,
madam, I think your husband would
take more pleasure in your clean COM
plexion than in a clean pair of attic
stairs, and I am quite sure that 1t is
better to provide your children with
neat. trim, well-groomed mother to
look at at table than to harass their
little stomachs with some elaborate
and indigestible made dish. ."-Wom-
ans World.

Quite a logical sequence to the
board, brilliant stripes of the English
cricket coat is making its appearance
in the checker board coat and caps, of
which picture is shown here. Moth
ing could be simpler in line and COM
position than the coat. The material
will not allow decoration other than
the plain horn buttons which appear
on the cuffs and fasten the belt
These coats are just getting a
start, and we may expect to see them
with much greater frequency in the
spring. The simple round hat made
from the same material is as soft as
the coat. and is really garment for
the head.
There is a droll standing feather at
the side. No one would think of de-
scribing it as pretty, but 1t fits the
scheme admirably, for this outfit ex-
presses those characteristics of the
young American miss which cause the
French to say that she looks and acts

like young lad. without being bois-
ferrous or obstreperous.
The pert little single feather has
a black curled tip and soft white
base. 1t is sort of challenge to good
fellowship.
A soft hat for younger girl is
made of velveteen or of plush, al
though others equally good are made
of plaid or checkered fabrics, such as
are used in coats. The turned back
brim is adorned with three quaint lit
tie bows in front.
Any one who is clever at sewing
can make this hat, for patterns Of
it are to be found in almost any
standard fashion book.
These are sensible and smart clothes
for young people, and those two ad-
jectives express the idea Of feath
ers of real style when one must
choose for the growing girl apparel of
any kind.

Novelty Buttons In Neekwear.

One of the most striking features
of the smartest neckwear is the large
use made of small button garnitures,
says the Dry Goods Economist. Rhine
stone, jet, crystal. cloth-covered and
pearl buttons score, in the order men,
toned. The fact that many Of the
button-trimmed novelties come rather
high can easily be accounted for when
one considers the cost of the novelty
buttons used. At the same, the smart
ness of the styles depends to a large
extent upon the clever arrangement
of these buttons.

Girlish Gown.

A simple and girlsh gown is made
of soft white chiffon trimmed with
garlands of green satin leaves, ap-

the round neck of the bodice, the high

Old Fashions Recalled.

Skirts have widened sufficiently to
make movement graceful and easy,
yet they have no superfiuous folds
and are simply cut. The three-quar-
ter lensth coats are of extraordinary
variety in design, and the use OF fur
on the whole costume is most effec-
tive. the result reminding one very
forclbly of the charming winter coats
worn by women several centuries ago.

RETURNS SHOW
 STODDARD'S DEFEAT

Little Rock, Jan. 24-That ser ious errors may often occur in the unofficial returns of elections published in newspapers was demonstrated Wednesday after noon by the Pulaski County Dem ocratic Central Committee. At first it was announced that Maj. Wm. Stoddard of the State Land Office, formerly a resident of Jonesboro, had been nominated for representative, being given the fourth place on the ticket, other nominees being Messrs. J. B. Webster, Robert Martin and o. c. Ludwig.
 Earl Kidder, a young lawyer and deputy prosecuting attorney at once observed discrepances in the published returns as com pared with those announced by judges and clerks in various pre- cinctS. He gave notice that he would therefore contest the nomination of Stoddard, and pro- ceeded to secure evidence to sus. tain his contentious.
 Wednesday afternoon the cen tral committee met and proceed ed to canvass the returns as shown from the poll books. The result was that Stoddard was displaced for fourth place and Earl D. Kidder was declared the nominee in his place by a lead of fifty-nine votes.
