Styles Chanqe Gradually.

On the whole the radical change ex-
pected in spring fashions will certain
ly not take place all at once. Little
by little fuller skirts, overdresses and
even paniers will make their appear
ance, but these effects will only ap-
pear slowly and gradually. Undoubt-
edly the fuller styles will prevail later
on, but the evolution OF fashion, like
every other action or movement aim
ing at attaining perfection, is OF the
'festina lente" category.
Judging from reports from Paris the
change OF silhouette will not be re-
markable this year. La Parisienne has
not yet tired OF Ia lfshe" and the
simple lines OF the figure, especially
from hip to hem. Gracefully arranged

LINING IS IMPORTANT PART
French Women Arc Most Particular
as to This, and Their Juds-
ment Is Good.

French women adore Innings. and
when new coat, or stole, or muff Is
being chosen the lining Is certainly as
important as the outside material.
Furs will have white satin Innings
covered with real lace; evening coats
will be enchantlngly lined with layers
OF chiffon in different shades. so that
when the coat falls away from the
shoulders a beautiful effect of color
catches the eye.
Underpetticoats Of vivid chiffon have
the same result when the upper skirt
is lifted A tailor-made of quite or
binary serge will be lined with dainty
silk lowered cachemire. in fact, lin
ings are large items in the mind OF
the woman who understands the art of
dress.
Nothing gives a surer note of dis
tinction to a garment than its inside
material and one may go so far as to
say that tailor-made or evening
cloak of any kind, that is badly or in
differently lined is as lacking in finish
as hair that is not we'll brushed or
shoes that are not irreproachable In
heels. soles and general polish.

The Gentle Art of Walkinu,

Walking, like angling. is an art:
and whereas Edward Payson Weston
will never ride on a street car. being
great pedestrian, good average
walker will take the trolley every
time, provided 1t carries him from the
city pavements. and enjoy his walk
to the full In the park or In the fields
and lanes of the country. And al
though he may take no heed OF dis
tances or time spent on the road, this
qualified walker is no fair-weather
saunterer. Today you may see him
passing your gate in gum boots. to-
morrow he may surprise you in a
pair OF tennis shoes; the noticeable
thing about him Is. he walks. and en-

TIDY HABITS TO BE PRIZED
Fortunate Indeed Is the Woman or
Girl Who Has systematically
Cultivated Them.

Tidiness is one OF the most attrac-
tive of feminine qualities. 1t Is also
one OF the rarest. Early and per-
sistent must be the training which
carries the girl into womanhood with
her bump of neatness" we'll de-
veloped.
Unless inherently fastidlous during
school days. she is liable to drift into
careless habits which she never out
grows.
One girl may have a trick of leaving
shoes about her room. AS n child she
was permitted to do this. and as she
grew older the untidy custom was
never abandoned, for the simple rea-
son that she herself did not notice
anything unusual about it, and prob
ably nobody else took the trouble to
correct her. Another slovenly habit
is leaving a bunch of combings in the
comb or on the dressing table. Con-
slant vigilance on woman's part is
necessary sin these small matters IL
she would be thought really tidy.

SHOOTING SCRAPE RESULT OF OLD GRUDCE
 (From Sundays Daily.)

Bad feeling that has been exist ing for some time between Dick Gordon and Billy Blount, found ex- pression in this city last night at about 10 o'clock, when Biount pull cd out his 4S-calibre gun and fired one shot at Gordon, the bullet miss ing its mark.
 The trouble was precipitated. it is said by Gordon knocking Blount down twice on the street in front of the Grand saloon, after the old trouble had been revived, which or iginatcd sometime ago while both men were employed at the Vslturc mines. Gordon has been in the city for the past three days, while Blount arrived from that camp yes terday. The first time the two men met since leaving the above mining camp was last night, when the old grudge was renewed by fist fight, in which Blount was worsted. When the latter fired his gun, Gordon was within less than ten feet. and the range of the bullet is said by eye witnesses to have been high. Gordon was taken into custody inn mediately afterward and placed in the city jail, while Blount was found later at the home of his mother on Mccormick street and lodged in the county jail. The gun he is alleged to have used was thrown in the bed of Granite creek. where it was found later. Gordon was unarmed, it is stated.
