IN VELVETEEN AND CORDUROY
Combination That Deserves the Popu-
larity Which II Has Been Un-
hestatinely Accorded.

Not every one can afford frocks of
silk velvet, SO velveteen was manu-
factured 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, 80 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-finished quail
tiles are extensively used.
Frocks and coat suits are develop
ed of this material and seem to find
a 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 shadec
'uore frequently used.

VOGUE of Molre.

Moire is being used extensively for
suits this fall, as well as for trim
mings. There are several classes of
MORE, including the moire antique,
the moire velours and the regence.
The latter denotes the ribbed weaves
as applied to the moires. The change
able and chameleon effects are shown
in the moires quite as often as the
plain. The taffeta moire has o beau
tiful but not too sharply defined wa
terry effect which makes it very desir-
able. This fabric has almost ousted
the chnngeable taffeta

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 tis
sues, moire and plain cloth of gold
and silver, as well 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.

Extreme Effects.

Some of the extreme panier effects
introduced this season suggest an or
binary sack combined with Turkish
trousers. The pannier is slightly
gathered into the waistband and falls
between the knee and the ankle, over
plain narrow skirt; 30 that the full
ness lays over It. This style Is u.s.
ually carried out in the lowered
silks or chiffon that suggests the
modes of Louis XIV.

HOW To FIGURE
SALOON DISTANCE
keokuk Attorneys Interested In the
Ruling Made by the Supreme
Court In Rreeard to the
Measurements.
MEASURE AS CROW FLIES
Question Of Withdrawal Of Withdraw.
ais In the Fort Dodge Case and
Court Decision Knocks Out
the Saloons.

Keokuk attorneys were interested in
decision of the supreme court of
Iowa. In a word, the decision holds
that as a crow flies AMI not by the
nearest ordinary travelled route is the
way the distance should be measured
to determine the circumference of a
circle within which saloons cannot be
operated in Iowa under the provisions
of the state law.
The case was that of R. r. Nolan,
who operated saloon at Oelwein. 1t
was charged that his saloon was with
in half mile of an agricultural fair.
The evidence showed that it was il
the distance was measured in a
straight line, but that it was more
than half a mile away by the nearest
Travelled route. The lower court held
that the saloon was in operation CON
trary to law and the high court af-
flrmed that decision
The lawyers were also interested in
the announcement Of the supreme
courts decision in the Fort Dodge
saloon mems cases
The high court holds that the petit
ton of consent for the sale of intoxi-
eating liquors in that city under the
provisions of the mulct law is insult
ficient.
This Judgment is reversal of the
ruling of the district court of Web
ster county, which held the petition to
be sufficient The question of the
withdrawal of Withdrawals was the
pivotal point of the case, and the con-
clusion of the high court on that ques-
ton results in the blow which wipes
out the saloon in Fort Dodge.
When the petition of consent came
up for consideration by the supervis.
ors of Webster county there were 204
Withdrawals attached Before the
canvass began twenty-one Withdrawals

tai number before the canvass was
completed was seventy-nine. Count

A man who own eighty acres of land
and has sense enough to till it makes
the lot of country newspaper men look
like the last sad remnant of a Dutch
lunch.
The farmer has the best of 1t all
around. He is as independent as an
express company. He doesn't have to
write a soulful obituary over some
peak headed fellow that keeps on dis
play an exhibit of cut plug profanity
that would make the efforts of a
steamboat mate sound like the meeting
of the Epworth league. He doesn't
have to go into raptures over the
beauty Of an open face bride with a
cast of countenance that would blow
out the gas.
The farmer isn't required to lie until
his back teeth fall out about the
sterling manhood of bridegroom with
ears like cauliflower plant and the
brain power Of yearling shote. He
doesn't have to run a contest for the
most beautiful young lady in the CON-
munity, make everybody sore and then
print q seventy-five cent half tone of
the beauty that looks like a tintype of
grandma at the age of thirteen.
