GOWN
STARTS SMALL
RIOT IN VILLAGE
Churchgoers Stop on Way to De-
votions While Motorman and
Conductor AbandonCar.

CARLISLE, PA, Sept. 2O.-A skirt
Of the fiimsiest material, which evil
IDENTIFY had been tre-ted to a phos-
phorescent wash, worn by Miss
Beresford, a pretty young woman,
caused a thrill and near riot on
Main street.
The gown was more than diapha-
nous. 1t had a subtitle glow that gave
an ethereal appearance to the young
woman as she boldly tr1pped along
the principal streets accompanied by
a stalwart escort.
A mob followed. Churchgoers
paused on their way to evening serv-
ices and upheld their palms in holy
horror, but many of them, as if hyp-
Noticed, Joined the throng A motor
man and conductor abandoned their
car and followed on. So did the pas
sengers.
Like a will-o'- the-wisp floating
over a misty meadow, Miss Beres-
ford led the way, apparently indiffer-
ent to the sensation she was making.
The phosphorescent gown lighted up
her graceful form like a candle in
side " jack o. -lanters, and the crowds
silent but watchful pressed closer.
Two policemen tried to turn back
the throng, but they were brushed
aside. The crowd gasped with dis
appointment when the phosphorus
began to fade on the gown, shutting
out vision Of loveliness.

Real Transparent
Gown Comes to U. s.
Philippine Cloth Can Be Doubled
Several Times and Still Seen
Through.

PHILADELPHIA Sept: 20.-Much
10y is in store for the wearers of
X-ray gowns. Just exactly the thing
they have been looking for has arrived
at the psychological moment from the
Philippines and is now on view at the
Commercial Museum here.
Formerly the Philippine x-ray cloth
was too thin for use anywhere except
in the tropics, but now that American
women have adopted the diaphanous
skirt it becomes appropriate as dress
material and several local department
stores have ordered large consign-
ments Of the fabric.
1t is more diaphanous than the
thinnest of wolfe, more pellucid than
the most clinging crepe de chine and
more transparent than the f1lmiest of
crepe meteor. 1t can be doubled sew
eral times and still be transparent.
In one layer ii has no more thickness
than a cobweb.
1t is called pima cloth because it is
made of half silk and half pineapple
fiber. It comes in all colors and in
stripes Of all designs.

Autumn Suits Are
Here

Autumn tailored models are Of so
many different types and kinds that
at first It is frankly beWildering to
try to separate them into ultra fash
ionable, stylish and conservative mod f.
els, for between the extreme styles
and the models suited to the needle
Of the average woman there is all
the difference in the world this sea-
son.
In the more conserva tive models as
well as the early imports, the coat of
the tailored suit is frankly long, a
little more than 36 inches In length at
the back. The front is generally one
OF the forms of cutaway. A skeleton,
or a real vest shows between or be-
low the coat fronts, and while revers
are not lacking they are OF inconspiC-
uous kinds, and the collar is often
made of the same material as the
vest. There are any number OF these
smart and conservative models, and
the style lies IN the contrasting vest
and the new material, two things of
immense Importance this coming
season. Dull green's, seal browns and
new taupe shades have none Of the
blatant coloring of last seasons fab

Leaders Of extreme feminine fash

The X-ray shoe has uppers Of Irish

sponsible for the design. For even
ing wear, the uppers are entirely of
lace, while for street wear the shoe
will be fitted with shallow goloshes

finest sort OF lace.
Thus far the new shoes have not
been worn, but their projectors say

HEALTHEXPERT
GIVES REASONS
FOR SLIT SKIRT
Colorado Pure Food Exponent De-
cIares Diaphanous Gowns Are
Kidney Disease PreventiVes.

DENVER, Sept. 2G-Wilbur F. Can
no. former State Pure Food Commits
sioner and friend of Thomas A. Edi-
son, warmly defends the X-ray dia-
phanous skirt and says that the pres
ent style of gowns worn by women IN
the East is strictly moral, according
to the Bible Canno gives tive rea-
sons why slit skirts and A-rays
should be adopted by all women.
l. The "X-ray' and the slit skirt
afford free circulation Of air about the
body Air is a tonic and stimulant
to the skin.
2. Absence Of so many Indersklrts
makes less weight upon the hips and
may be called a prCphylactic meas
ure in kidney troubles. 1t may save
backaches.
8. Absence Of the usual amount Of
clothes necessitates more frequent
bathing, thus opening the pores and
causing freer Precipitation. THIS
means less burden on the ekidneys.
Here comes in the argument that tbs
West is the natural home OF the
'rX-ray." 1t is in a climate like Den
yer that sufferers from kidney dis
eases are more numerous. Where
there is much humidity these troubles
are fewer, owing to much perspirtng.
A. The latest fashion permits OF
freer movement of the limbs and con-
serves energy.
5. There is less labor required IN
ironing, washing and taking care OF
clothes.
As to the moral issue in regard to
the question about skirts. Canno re-
lates that in he Garden OF Eden
Genesis h:25-3) Adam and Eve were
not ashamed.

Assistant Secretary John Shelton VIII
liams issued an order that forbade
clerks to carry handbags lunch
boxes or other packages there. This
has been accepted by the 800 women
clerks as a direct attempt to elimi-
nate the powder puff.
Assistant Secretary Williams re-
torts that the order is a precautio1-
airy one solely. Under 1t all pack
ages and hand baggage must be left
in the locker room in the basement
of the building before the clerks actu-
ally pass into the part Of the great
granite structure devoted TO the
housing OF the Governments cash an
securities. This, the clerks say, is
risky, and they object TO inviting per

Cause Railroad to Change
Height of Steps.

WELLESLEY, MASS, Sept. 20
Wellesley College girls may return to
college this fall in tight skirts. Right
in front of the Wellesley station more
than a hundred laborers have been
working for the last few days grad
ing the Boston and Albany Railroad
tracks, so that the distance between
the car steps and the ground will be
only one foot instead of three feet, as
heretofore.
There is no longer any reason why
the latest thing in fashion should not

be deprived of their congenial occu-
patton of aiding beauty in distress.

usual centers of those who would
create popularity for any unusual
style. That they have succeeded is
shown by the avidity with which
some of the leaders of extreme garb-
ing on this side of the Atlantic are
ordering them. Those familiar with
conditions say that the new shoes
will find at least a temporary and a
great vogue here.
Persons interested In X-ray shoes
say that the opponents of the slit
skirt, the transparent skirt, kneelets,
anklets and all the rest will not de-
nounce the X-ray shoe The shoe
would give all the protection that
lovely woman requires for her feet,
and, in addition, it would conduce
for better foot health The feet are
too much dressed, say the X-ray shoe
advocates, and a shoe which, like the
sandals Of old, allows plentiful sup
ply Of air and sunshine should be
popular.
