A SMART SUMNER GOWN
BY MAY MANTON

A great many different materials could
be used for making this smart gown, but
In the illustration figured pique is com
bined with heavy lace, and the effect Is
an excellent one. The materials are both
fashionable and durable, so that they
fulfil two of the most essential require
ments, and the style of the garment is
the best. There are tucks over the shout
ders that mean pretty %fulness, aud the
kimono sleeves, that retain oil their favor,
give graceful lines. The six-gored skirt
can be finished with a prettily-shaped
revers, as in this instance, or left plain.
but skirt trimmings make a very impor-
tant feature of the season, and this treat
ment is an excellent one. II the lace Is
not liked, the collar and revers could be
of n contrasting material braided or em-
broidered, or figured material could be
used on plain. or plain on figured. Com
bination of white and colored liner would
make a pretty effect. A little hand en-
broidery always means da%intiness, and
the dress made of white linen with the
collar, cuffs and reyers of blue of pink
embroidered in some simple design would
be charming.
For the 16-year size Will be required
6 yards of material q. Az yards Sc, 3is

RETAINING WOMANLINESS

Never believe for a moment that you

you are earning your own living. In the

much of your femininity into your work.
But away from 1t you must turn all
your enthusiasm In the direction of be

your powers. Cultivate your beauty

what is delicate and charming in exist

The following is clipping from

"The Academy of Music last night
presented the Mills & Bernard Musi-
cal Comedy Company in the big laughS
ing hit clip Hip -Hooray." The entire
performance was a big hit, judging
from the many encores given and the
hearty applause. Mills and Bernard
are entertainers such as the Weber
Fields type. They have a finish to
their character make-ups that deserve
especial praise. AL Watson, who por-
trayed the Hebrew character, was all
that could be desired Miss Eliza
beth Rowena, as the College Widow,
has a most attractive personality and
received many encores for ner sing
ing. The large chorus is one of the
prettiest that has been at the local

all the production as put on at the
Academy is one of the biggest things
this popular play house has ever put

Anderson Cotton Crop.

Anderson, Nov. 1O.-Farmers gen.
orally are of the opinion that the
cotton crop in Anderson county this
year will not exceed 10000 bales.
Some of the farmers believe that the
crop will not exceed $4,000. Last
year Anderson county's crop was 49,
900 bales, the largest in the history
OF the county. The short crop this
year is due to too much rain soon
after the cotton came out of the
ground, and too little rain after the
plants had become large. The Ander-
son cotton market has been steadily
increasing during the past week.

Much Liquor Pourned Into Rivers

Greenville, Nov 11.-At high noon
Saturday, Sheriff Poole commenced
pouring a conglomeraton of intoxi-
eating beverages into the Reedy river
the lot representing the seizures by
the police and county deputies for a
period of several weeks. Over four
hundred bottles of beer in various
colored bottles and representing the
brew of several nations, whiskey in
jugs, dimijohns, bottles, pints, quarts,
and gallons, went the way of the sew
er. The liquor ranged in color any
where"from amber hue to the limpid
blue of mountain dew, from the hue
OF lye soap to the tint of variegated
morning glories. In all it is esti-
mated that several hundred dollars
worth of the stuff was destroyed.
Officers have been unusually vigi
liant lately, the seizures during the
past six days representing in the ag-
gregate a greater amount than was
ever before seized in a twelve month.
And this means that next pouring
out" day will be indeed something
out of the ordinary.

j. A. Wilburn.
1t is not known how the fire origi-
mated, but is thought by some to have
been the result of spontaneous COM
bustion. There was no insurance
upon the destroyed property. Several
head of stock, housed in a shed at
tached to the barn, were saved.
The barn was very large; it was
formerly an old gin house, and had
been converted into a barn.
