Ihree 1xnes of Gowns.

There are three separate and dis
tinct types of evening gowns this sea-
son. and every new dinner gown par
takes of one or the other of these
types. There is the classic type. with
sinuous. winding draperies ending in
a narrow train. There Is the debu-
tante type (worn by every woman who
believes she looks best in girlish ef-
fects). which has founces on the skirt
and usually a sash knotted around tho
waist. And there is the pannier type.
which is gay and chic and eminently
Partisan. with it's puffed-out or looped-
over drapery and skirt short enough
to reveal coquettish little satin slip
pers with high heels and sparkling
buckles. or the pretty buttoned boots
of satin, which do make the foot and
ankle adorably slim and distinguished.

GHOSTS EVER BOTHER YoU7
II So, Southern Negro Folks Say These
Simple Precautions viii Chase
EN-.

AS a part OF the folklore OF the ne.
gro folks the superstitions of slavery
days are OF great interest. The fol-
lowing are some of the negros beliefs
about ghosts:
To feel hot breath of air strike
you at twilight signified the nearby
presence OF Il ghost. Should you wish
to avoid him. stop and turn your coat
and trousers and hat wrong side out
and the. spirit cannot encounter you.
If, however. he is pugnacious
sprite and approaches despite the
change. turn and address him thus:
"In the name of the Lord. what do you
want?" Whereupon he will tell you
his business upon earth. then depart
and never. never trouble you again.
II. on the other hand. 1t is a prowllng
ghost who crawls under the house.
bumps against the floor. makes
strange sounds. and whispers In the
midnight hours. you have only to put
In a new floor and he will do so no
more.
Some ghosts are obtrusive and will
not only prowl about the house. but
creep In through the crack OF the door
In the wee small hours of the night.
and. once inside. expand to vast pro.
portions. To spare yourself any dis
turbance In this way. SOW mustard
seed all about the doorstep just before
going to bed. or place sieve on the
doorstep.
Before entering the spirit will have
to count all the holes In the sieve or
all the mustard seeds. and by this
time daylight will come and he will
have to so. AS the counting for ono
night will not do for another you are
always safe.-Southern Workman.

Gift For Baby.

Babies always need bibs. and 1t is
easy to make these. They may be
plain ones or fancy. finished with en-
broidery lace or feather-stitching: but
an important point to remember when
making a bib Is to fit pad Of absor-
bent cotton under the outer.covering.
else the moisture from the little ones
mouth will soak through and ruin the
dainty frock underneath.
A FELLOWSHIP Is also n nice gift for
baby. 1t may be made of fine linen.
embroidered on each end with a dain-
ty spray Of blossoms. This should
cover small down pillow.
Another idea is a bassinette or car
riage cover of French flannel. deco.
rated with garlands Of daisies or rose
buds worked in natural colored floss.
To make the cover still more elabo-
rate. crochet lace nedallions may be
inserted in the center Of each garland.

"Mua" 10 overworked Word.

The most overworked word in the
Englishman's vocabulary of slang is
Mug" AS noun 1t may mean n

reading to sport. AS verb its mean
ings are still more varied. 1t may
mean to study hard. or to strike In the

and among actors to grimace or make
faces. To mug up is also. in theatrical
parlance. to make up.
Finally, to mug ones self is to get

word than In some of the others. for

Taffeta the Eavorlte.

Taffeta is perhaps more used than
any other kind of silk for this sea-
sons little coat, though the soft satins
stubbornly retain their popularity
here as elsewhere in fashions realm.
Many of the costumes sent over by
the best Partisan designers show fan
ciful little coats associated with one
piece frocks. In the more conservative
models the coat Is in the same tone
as tho frock, though it is likely to he
in contrasting material; but perhaps
more frequently the coat contrasts in
color with the frock. though its color
may find an echo in some trimming
note in the frock.

The exact date set for the giving up
