IN vELvETEEN AND CORDUROY
Combination That Deserves the Popu-
laAty Which II Hao Been In
hesitatlnlIy Accorded.

Not every one can afford frocks of
silk velvet, SO velveteen was manu-
featured as substitute. 1t is lovely,
and gives practically the same effect
as silk velvet when made up. Velve-
teen and corduroy are used to fashion
many smart frocks for street wear
Plain colors are more frequently
used for the velveteen models. They
are effectively trimmed with fur. me-
tallic laces. Persian or tapestry en-
broidery.
Velveteen does not adapt itself so
successfully to draping as do the
softer velvets, so the skirts are usual
ly plain or with pleated insets.
The bodices are jumper effects, with
guimpes of lace or chiffon.
Corduroys in the soft-hnished quail
tiles are extensively used.
Frocks and coat suits are develop
ed of this material and seem to find
q ready sale.
The two-tone corduroys in brown
and tan, blue and black and white
are especially favored.
In plain colors, dark blue. brown,
black and burgundy are the shades
more frequently used.

MADE A DAINTY TEA TRAY
Pretty Thing Evolved by Clever Girl
In a Most Economical and Sim
pie Manner.

A novel and most economical way
to make a pretty tea-tray was dis
covered by a girl who is very clever
with her wits and her fingers. She
first purchased for forty cents large
oval picture frame from q second
hand store, securing very good bit
of natural old woodwork. Then with
bottle of stain, some sand-paper and a
little varnish she polished up the wood
to look like new, then screwed on two
brass handles, one at each end, after
wards cutting a piece Of pretty Gre
tonne the same size as the glass, and
pasting it smoothly where the picture
would ordinarily go. Covering 1t with
the boards that belong to the frame,
tackled securely into place, the entire
back then being covered with piece
of felt, when she found herself pos
sessed of a most fetching tea-tray,
which in the shops would cost from S.
to So.

Care Of the skin.

Before going to bed at night, sponge
the face, neck and arms in solution
of cold salt water. You will find your
self awakening in the morning with
that desirable slight pink glow, which
you SO often see in the face Of q
child at this time. Another skin slim
ulator is a small piece OF Ice, placed
In a soft piece of linen and rubbed
gently over the entire face and neck,
care being taken to reach every part
of the surface about the eyes and eye
lids. This should not be done to ex-
cess; and afterward the face should
be gently but thoroughly dried, and a
little cold cream applied. All cream
that the flesh has not absorbed should
be removed, especially from the face
that has a tendency coward being
hirsute.

Evening Dresses.

The Grecian draperies and oriental
colorings strongly dominate the very
exclusive evening dresses, says the
Dry Goods Economist. Embossed vel
vet patterns on chiffon cloth, on
charmeuse, on satin or brought out on
cloth of gold and silver are utilized.
Metallic brocades, gold and silver It's
sues, moire and plain cloth OF gold
and silver, as wen as rich embroider-
ed fabrics. are represented In many
Of the most favored models. Rich
laces are also In favor, particularly
the finer varieties. such as Chantilly
and Bohemian. venise is used most
ly as a finishing touch on velvet
models.

HonoIulu.-To come into the world

hours after birth the little fellow was

Two days ago Mrs. Juan Cavalho.

the child was born and physicians
found that the bullet had embedded
itself in the little body.

ORIGIN OF THE CRESCENT
Was Once Emblem Of Byzantine EN-
pre and Eastern Church-NoW
Regarded as Mohammedan.

London.-Though now regarded as
essentially Mohammedan, the cres-
cent was Christian in its origin. A
crescent moon was the emblem Of the
Byzantine empire and the eastern
church, and the Turks adopted 1t as a
badge of triumph after the capture of
Constantinople In 1853.
With reference to the crescent the
story of the origin of the crescent
shaped Vienna roll Is worth recalling.
1t arose In the sixteenth century when
the Turks were besieging Vienna, and
falling to carry 1t by assault began
to drive mines under the walls At
that period the city's bakehouses were
In the walls under the Notifications,
and when the mines were almost
through the sound OF the work was
heard In the underground bake houses
and the alarm given. 1t was to cele-
brate this event that the bakers adopt
ed the Turkish emblem as the shape
in which the make their bread.

shrieked with pain.
Peering into the barrel Bender saw
the nails and got a saw and an axe.
BY liberal use of both he finally ex-
tricated pretty much all Of Roach and
some of his clothes. Then he sent to
the Eastern District hospital for an
ambulance. The surgeon took Roach
into the ambulance and applied plaster
until he looked more or less like a
patchwork quilt. Then Roach went
home.

Indeed. you may ask Just all the
questions you wish. / am right here
to answer them to the best Of my
ability. For simple home wedding
you need not send engraved invita-
lions, but just little notes or ask the
relatives and guests yourself to wit

ceremony is quite popular, but 1t and
the question of whether you stand fac

From the headless end of the barrel

Within the barrel-but the fact did
not appear at the moment-Was good
deal of Thomas Roach, machinist
living at No. 80 Norton street, and
some nails. The nails were extremely
irritating to Roach and disastrous to
his clothes, hence the bowls.
Roach-and this also became evi.

Encountering the nails Roach rolled

Youths Come to Grief When
They Board Yacht.
Arrests Follow the Lootlng OF Many
Vessels at Anchor OFF Nyack, NJ.
Y-Leader Told of Huge For
tunes That Awaited Them.

New York.-Like a black visaged
tale of the days when Captain Kidd
swept the sea, was the yarn unfolded
In court in Nyack when four youths
with the lure of the southern deep,
strong in them, were arraigned on a
charge of burglary following an at
tempt to steal the $4,000 yacht of
James B. Hammond.
Two months ago the gasoline yacht
of FL. r. Humphreys, a member of
the Albany Yacht club, disappeared
from her moorings off Tarrytown.
Fine cruising and inland yachts were
stripped of their binnacles, glasses,
charts, canvas and various other
equipment.
Chief of Police Curran, of Nyack, had
had detectives working along the riv-
er shore for weeks, and a fortnight
ago discovered a veritable pirates
cove back of the old Flatrock Com
pany property at Mack. In machine
shop and rocky recess were
stored various appliances and APP
purtenances from steamboats,, yachts
and sailing vessels amounting in value
to several thousand dollars.
The arrest of doc" Lehman follow
Z ed October 20. and three weeks lat
er Joseph Romano, OF No. 1873 Wash
ington avenue, and Edward Timber
lain, OF Long Island City were made
prisoners on charge of robbery, it
being believed they could tell much
about the pirate raids along the Hud-
son. Dadinic Cuzio, of No. 101 Wash
ington avenue. and Robert Donati, Of
Sherman street and Washington ave-
nue., Long Island City. were arrested,
also charged with robbery.
''Doc" Lehman, according to the
stoehse, was the brains of the crew.
He mad appeared on the shores OF
Long Island some weeks ago in a
fine power yacht He told rosy sto-
riees OF cruise to the southern seas,
where he expected to find millions OF
dollars worth of pearls. He connded
the theft of the yacht, and tnat he had
renamed her the Serpent. Angelo
Caffone and Joseph Caffone, Dominick
Cuzso. Joseph Romano. Edward Tim
berIain and Robert Donati all fell
into the lure of the sea and started
up the Hudson with Lehman. The
Caffone boys rebelled and were put
ashore. At Troy Cuzio and Romano
left.
But the pirates, embolden by past
successes. now tried the brilliant feat
that led to their downfall The
Lounger III. was anchored of the Ham
mond estate at Nyack and was fully
equipped for a deep sea voyage, witt
gasoline and provisions aboard She
had been left unguarded for moment
in the night when. 1t is charged, Doc
Lehman and his trusty followers went
aboard her. Lehman was past mas
ter at gasoline engines and soon the
motor was purring at lively rate and
the Lounger was slowly nosing out In
TO the Hudson.
Suddenly there was rude shaking
and the vessel stopped, with her en-
gines pumping ahead. She had caugh

PIRATES" ARE TAKEN

But their elation had overstepped
caution and they had sent postal
cards to friends In Long Island City
telling Of the scheme and that they
intended to load the vessel with all
the booty stored in the cave. These
postal cards fell into the hands OF the
police.
All four prisoners were charged
with burglary, but Cuzio and Romano
were discharged for lack of evidence.

Every invitation where the hostess
provides a luncheon, dinner or sup

or else how is she to know for how
many to prepare? MY theory is that
every invitation should be accepted
or regretted just as soon as possible
In the strict sense of the VOID and
according to the old-fashioned rules
of etiquette, calls should be made af-
ter accepting hospitality, but in this
busy generation and on account OF
the great distances in cities one over
looks the fact that guests do not pay
party calls, for it is almost impossible.

Mule colts were brought to Ian

droves, and prices asked when the

sky high; so high that it seemed
there was going to be little trading

day, however, the owners, saw that
they were asking too much and drop
ped IN their demands considerably,
so that trading became lively before
the day was done. There was no
haggling however, over the real good
stuff, and some top prices were
paid for the colts that had the
growth and looks.

CLARENCE TATE TO BUILD
HOME ON TOP or MILL
Plans Drawn for Model Modern Res
idence. To Cost with Appur.
tenances, About $4,000

Clarence Z. Tate is having ground
broken on his place on the Huston
vile pike, on top of cemetery hill
for what will, when it is completed,
be the handsomest home in this part
of the state. He plans to have the
foundation laid before cold weather
sets in, and to have it left open, to
season and become firm during the
winter. Then in the springtime the
house will be erected.
Plans and specifications have been
drawn for a magnificent home, to-
gether with all necessary outbuiid-
ings and appurtenances to make it
the most complete and oommodious
imaginable. When completed the
outlay for the place is expected to
approach cose to $4,000. There
will be three bedrooms in the resi-
dence which will be equipped also
with complete modern waterworks
system, electric lighting system,
furnace heating. and in fact, every
modern convenience and comfort.
Mr.. Tate also plans to have a gar
age for his motor cars, built in keep
ing with the beauty and symmetry Of
his home.
With avenue of mammoth trees,
no more ideal site for just such a
home could be found in this section.
