be charged to economy, for one may
obtain a pretty little fan for as little
as five cents. and from fifty cents to
a dollar very artistic and notably
well-made fans are sold.
The fan of this summer is small, a
regular coquette's fan. The young
girl and the small woman can use
them gracefully. but they are some
what ludicrous when carried by a
very large or stout woman. Let her
choose a somewhat larger fan for the
sake of maintaining proportion. which
is better than high style.
The painted paper fans answer
most purposes for summer. They are
made with painted or enameled sticks
of various colors and are painted in
graceful Watteau-like designs. One
cunning fan has a flock of roguish
Cupids breaking into a quaint case
ment window painted on one side,
while on the other side a couple of
pretty girls are holding the window
shut against them. This is a copy of
a hand painted French fan and is
we'll done.
Another cunning fan represents a
gay dance of Pierrots and Pierettes
in a fowery glade. The colors used
are soft and delicate and the sticks
of the fan are glossy black.
! But it Is all a matter of taste and
; the colors of your frocks. Choose a
fan for each frock and have a scar
let and white fan or a black and
,,-Asfo F.r for vrhito frocle Al oil

dances and can be hung on a silver
chain with beads of scarlet coral set
In at six-inch intervals.
For a more formal dance the little
fan of white point or Duchess lace,
with sticks of ivory or mother Of
pearl, is the thing. A good chain
with pearls or opals set in it make a
pretty hanger for 1t.
A smart fan of gold spangles has a
heavy cord and tassels of gold, de-
signed to be slipped over the wrist.
Some OF the Oriental shops show
long fan chains of silver with fiat
medallions of Chinese characters set
in them, enameled in green and blue.
For older women the fan chain of
gunmetal. set with cut crystals. is al
ways smart and may be used with a
fan of black satin. black spangles or
siivery gray paper with black enam-
eled sticks.
An inexpensive fan chain is of sill
yer gilt. with an occasional Oriental
bead in odd colorings. The chains set
with amethysts. jade and other semi
precious stones are too well known
TO need description. The main point
in choosing them is to select one
which will harmonize with all Of your
gowns and all OF your faus unless
you can AFFORD more than one chain.

FADS IN FANS AND A

The fan, which shares with the
parasol the distinction of being the
most Characteristic dress accessory of
summer, is too frequently chosen
haphazard, with no feeling for har-
mony or real charm. The headwaiter
at the hotel gives you a fan with
dessert, enterprising shops press
fans upon each customer, and it is
fans obtained in just such ways that
we use too often, regardless of how

of pneumonia after an illness OF

her only son, was with her in her
illness and together with physici-

old age made her an easy victim to
this terrible malady. She was u

ROAD BUILDING

Carroll county is progressing IL
many particulars, but she Is lag
ging behind in the matter Of road
building. This question, however,
is commanding much attention
from our people and we believe
some real advanced steps will be
taken along this line before many
years. Other progressive counties
il the state are coming to the front
in this particular, and Carroll can
not afford to let the question and
time pass without doing some real
hard thinking. The county is
plenty able to have good roads and
farmers are certainly entitled to
them.
The progressive way to build
roads and the way being adopted
by many counties in the state is by
issuance OF bonds and building
them in a substantial way. On
the first impulse this appeals to
one as an expensive piece Of BUSH
ness and many, without giving the
matter fair investigation, wouldiI
oppose it. Bnt Of the large num-
Der of counties that have tried it,
all are pleased, and in many in
stances the second and some as
many as the third issuance of bonds
have been voted by the people. In
nearly every case it was easier to
vote the second than the first,
showing that the people did not
consider the matter al undesirable
burden.
Following we give the Tennes-
see counties that have voted bonds
for road construction and the
amount issued:
