How to Dress Economically
If But One Cloth Dress Can Be Az
fOrded in Il Season Il should Pc
of Dark Material.
by Mrs. Frank Learned


IT. HE frequent changes Of fashion
make it advisable to have a
comparatively small wardrobe,
but each gown should be chosen with
care and all gowns and hats kept in
perfect order Constant vigilance must
be practiced if one would he well
dressed on a limited expenditure.
II put one new cloth dress can be
afforded IN season, it is well to
choose very dark material. plain or
rough. One good hat is more desir-
able than two or three cheap ones
A hat should never be overloaded
with trimmings, feathers or flowers.

lining and pressing by a good tailor
VIII be worth the expense. A few Yards
OF new braid will help wonderfully in
rearranging coat and skirt Waists
may be altered to look like new, il
some fresh trimming is tastefully
added
If one would keep a street dress in
good order it should never be worn in
the house It should be brushed we'll
and the skirt and coat placed on hang
ers In a closet A coat should never be
hung by a loop. Waists should be
turned on the wrong side when re-
moved, and we'll aired. An evening
dress when removed should be hung
in a closet not too fun of other gar
ments- The next day il should be
smoothed. mended. If necessary, spots
should be taken out. and the dress laid
lightly In a box or drawer and covered
with tissue paper. or, if hung up in
closet il should be covered with a
piece of fine muslin.
To keep shoes in shape they are
placed on trees There is economy in
having several pairs of shoes and wear
ing them alternately. Gloves should be
removed by drawing them inside out,
turning them back again. blowing into
them and smoothing them out neatly.

great strides and is now more common
than the piano, and the mail order cat
alogue. The bath tub Is the first rung
of the ladder by which the American
rises to prosperity. After having ac-
quired a bath room he buys piano on
the instalment plan. Then he joins a
club and swarms calamity upward into
the automobile class. The bath tubs
of America keep the nation clean at
very small expense. For two cents a
day an American can soak himself for
half an hour each morning and can play
the fascinating game known as chasing
the soap. However, if he goes to the
American hotel he discovers that baths
are much higher IN price. 1t costs him
a dollar extra to rent room with bath,
and many travellers have been so irri
tated by this that they have gone out
and stood in the dusty automobile road
for an hour each afternoon in order to
get their moneys worth when they re-
turn to the hotel
1t is now the ambition of the Ameri-
can citizen to own as many bath tubs a
possible and the magnate who has just
built a house in which there are 81 bath
tubs for the use of himself, wife and
little son is gazed upon with awe and
admiration on all sides.-Copyrighted by

BLACK LUMBER CO. HIT
BY ATLANTA FAILURE
Had Loaned Large Sum To
The Simpson and
Harper Co.

Friendly proceedings in involun-
tary bankruptcy were filed in Allan
ia on Monday against the ]. J. Black
Lumber Company The suit was
brought about through the failure of
the Simpson and Harper Lumber Com
pany, an Atlanta concern, upon
whose notes Mr.. Black was an endors-
er to large extent and is not a fail
ure of Mr.. Black or the Black Lum-
Der Company.
Mr.. R. A. Hill, President of the
Merchants and Farmers Bank, was
named receiver.
The facts in the case are given out
by Col John P. Cheney, as attorney
for Mr.. Black, as follows:
Mr. Blacks present financial en-
barrassment was brought about sole
ly on account of the recent big fail
ure OF the Simpson and Harper Lum-
Der Co, of Atlanta, who were forced
into involuntary bankruptcy by some
l. d
Germ, doing tremendous amount of
business, and rated the very highest
by all of the mercantile agencies and
leaked upon by all of the banks as in
excellent condition and entitled to
the highest standing and credit Mr..
Simpson, the head of this firm, had
known Mr.. Black for years and was
one of Mr. Blacks closest friends and
had come to Mr. Blacks assistance
a number of times when Mr. Black
was sorely in need of financial help
and in return for these past favors
Mr.. Black, within the last few months
loaned his paper, or in other words,
gave his accommodation notes to a
very large amount, to the Simpson
and Harper Lumber Company from
which he received no value or consid-

MARIETTA WANTS HER
SHARE OF ROAD WORK
Committee OF Fifty Citizens
Went Before Commissioners
On Tuesday.

When the County Commissioners
met on Tuesday delegation of fifty
or more business and professional
men of Marietta went before them in
a body to request portion of the
convict road work in the Marietta
district. They had five able speakers
to present facts and figures to show
that the Marietta district paid almost
half of the County Taxes and that on
ly small portion of thsi money had
been applied to the Marietta district
during the past few years.
Those who spoke were Messrs. w.
]. Frey, J. M Cogburn, Adrian Cor
telyou, e. P. Dobbs and Morgan Nc
Neel.
These gentlemen made strong ar
guments for a systematic working of
the trunk roads of the County and
showed that the Marietta district
was entitled to practically half of the
money spent on road building and
that this district had not been receiv-
ing it's share of the work.
The advantage of working the
main trunk roads instead of the
cross roads was strongly argued as
being CT advantage to more travellers
for a greater mileage than good cross
roads. Working the cross roads and
leaving the trunk reads was shown
to give the few living on such roads
a good road to the main roads and
then causing them to drive over a
bad road to town while if the trunk
roads were worked it would give ev-
erybody a good road where the traf-
fic was heaviest
Without doubt this is the best way
to apply the road work and would
result to the best advantage Of the
greatest number Of citizens.
The Marietta journal and courier. (Marietta, Ga.) 1909-1918, 1913-03-07

Grafton, believing as well as the banks
and others that the concern was as
sound as it could be. These notes
were discounted by Simpson and Har-
per and fell into the hands of inno-
cent purchasers for value and, of
course, Mr.. Black will have to meet
them, yet the only thing he has to
fall back on is the bankrupt concern
of Simpson and Harper the amount of
whose assets is not definitely known
at present.
If this Simpson and Harper paper
had not stared him in the face Mr..
Black would have had absolutely no
, trouble as he had a splendid and rap
idly growing business and good prop
critics and was making money right
along.
Unfortunately, however, through
deep sense of gratitude for help ex-
tended to him at various times in the
past yb the Simpson and Harper peo-
pie, Mr.. Black gave them this accom-
mediation paper, lending them in this
manner his credit and becoming re-
, sponsible thereon, which finally re-
suited in his failure in connection
with theirs.
The whole affair is a most unfor-
tunate one and comes upon Mr.. Black
at time when otherwise his pros
poets in business were brightest and
| know the general public will sym
pathize with him to the fullest ex-
tent
