COAT SETS OF ULTRA DESIGN
Very Smart Are Those of Crash
Which Have Suddenly Become
So Popular.

Ultra smart are the coat sets in
heavy crash. While a few of them are
entirely of a creamy hue, the most eff
fective are in old rose, delft blue, pas
tel green or khaki, embroidered with
white or black linen floss. This needle
work, which is in a bold design and
done in a close, solid stitch, runs from
the inner to the outer edge of both
collar and cuffs, where the hem
stitched border is very coarse and ef-
fective. The collars are five pointed
and so extremely broad that one Van
Dyke terminates at the center of the
back, two Van Dykes fall over the
top of the arm, and the remaining pair
extend almost half way to the waist
line. The cuffs have three sharp Van
Dykes, a deep one running backward
to the elbow, and two shorter ones
pointing, toward the inner side of the
arm. These coat sets are now worn
with plainly tailored serges Of dark
hue, but they will be equally smart
looking with the tailored frocks in
white, gray or tan.

ELABORATE BAGS FOR BRIDGE
All Kinds of characterization Are Sane
toned for These Up-to-Date
Accessories.

The wrist bag which the bridge ex-
pert carries is becoming a very splen-
did affair of silk or satin, embroider-
ed with floss or closely encrusted with
tiny beads of crystal, pearl or metal.
Not infrequently it is of heavy lace,
lined with a silken material or with
metallic gauze. One model is a very
'ong and slender affair of lilac APP
pliqued with genuine Irish lace mo-
tits. About it's mouth is narrow edg-
ing of the lace and below that is a
pocket through which runs a cording
of mauve silk and silver threads,

Better stop at Boggs'!" Pegloe
called after them.
But the judge had already formed
his decision. Horse-racing and shoot
ing-matches were suggestive OF that
progressive spirit, the absence OF
which he had SO much lamented at
the jail raising at Pleasantville. Mem
phis was their objective point, but
Boggs' became a side Issue OF I'M
portance. They had gained the edge
of the village when Darlington over
took them. He stepped to Hannibars

"She's the closest shooting rifle l
ever sighted" said Hannibal prompt
ly.
Darlington laughed.
There was a rusty name-plate on
the stock of the old sporting rifle;
this caught Carrington's eye.
Whats the name here? Oh. Tur

The Judge, step or two in ad'

startling suddenness.
"What?" he faltered, and his face
was ashen.

Judge, hating before this solitary in

the Judge, cooking his head on one

there, he glanced curiously at the

Enr the Sick Room.

To sweeten the air of sick room
for a patient who is tired of the usual
perfumes, burn a few drops Of oil o.
sandalwood on a shovel. Eau de Co
logne dropped on hot shovel also
gives a most agreeable odor. If per
fumes are not at hand an admirable
substitute may be found in camphor
a piece of which may be burned by
the application of hot poker. The
strong smell of the camphor quickly
disappears, taking with it all the close
and disagreeable odors of the sich
room.

TW9 conventions representing men science have opened a rigorous cru- sadc for the conservation of human life
 It remained for Gov Woodrow Will son to throw an expressive light upon the subject so long neglected.
 "Tae more widely we view the feld of obligation. he said before the re- cent Conservation Congress of h. dianapoiis, the more clearly it ap- pears to us that our duty is only done in laying the foundation when we lave conserved the natural re- sources of America. for these national resources are of no consequence un- less there is free and virile people to use them
 Tais is essentially true. for Of what possible use can be the natural resources of our prolific country if the race of men and women is deter icrating?
 Again he was sensible in saying that al of the best governed cities of ho world were to De found on the other side of the world While this may not be literally true, at the same time if mus be admitted that the great majority of the best governed cities are to be found in the old country. Bua where Gov Wilson sounded the Keynote to the whole sit uatioa WIS when he said We must take he heartlessness out of in. dusly before we can put heart int1 mon who arc engaged in industry
 How true th's is. How consis ent it is with the conditions of today
 Nest men and women desire to live as long as possible. Ii is natural that they should if their bodies are sound.
 The second convention of the In- ternational Congress of Hygiene and Demography, held in Washington, at tractcd probably more attention than the conservation congress, because it struck more directly at the vital is sues under discussion. It was the specific purpose Of the convention to discuss the best ways and means Of promoting longevity and healthful- rase
