trimming band is shaped to har-

will be noted that this girdle is held
by fat bow, for bows of every known
sort are used. The dress would be

other simple silk as we'll as from the
cotton material or the design could be
utilized for one of the fine Swiss muslins
or French crepes with perfect success !
THE simple round bertha is
becoming to almost every girl.
The dress that shows that
finish is made with straight gathered
skirt that is tucked. If there is need
for an extra toilette in haste. this will
be an excellent model to choose, for
1t can be run up in few hours and

effect. In the picture, it is made from
pretty little lowered wolfe with trim
ming of embroidery but it is easy to
fancy it utilized for plain crepe de
chine or for the broche materials; FOR
marquisette or for any simple summer
stuff. This bow is long and narrow
and gives one more suggestion for the
belt finish.

made from crepe de chine. It
is Just as dainty and pretty as
any girls dress need be. The little lace

surplice portions of lace that are very
charming. Clever girls win be quick

THE season is essentially one of
silk and cotton. Cottons are
ravishingly beautiful and are
shown in infinite variety and silks
are made as light and cool as gauze
itself. Any one of the frocks illus
trated could be made of either material
but, in the picture. there are three of
pretty cotton stuffs and one of crepe
de chine lace trimmed, and lace makes
an important feature of the season.
1t is utilized in every possible way
and it trims both the silk and the cotton
fabrics. The dresses are especially
designed for young girls and small
women.
NHE dress at the extreme left

skirt with the kimono blouse

withal. 1t takes extremely smart
lines and it is as simple as can be.
In the picture, white cotton wolfe
is trimmed with lace and there is
worn with the dress girdle finished
with a big cart-wheel rosette that
gives distinctive touch. The same
model can be made to take on a ouire
different aspect by slight changes,
however. In place Of the skirt with
a straight band at the edge bordered
material of depth could be used with
plain material beneath or bordered

its own finish would be pretty. The

the trimming is the heavy
lace that is so pretty on thin fabrics.
The kimono sleeves are again shown
and, since they are the graceful pos
sible, they surely will be welcome.
The bodice is cut out in quite novel
way, allowing a prettily shaped
empiscement. In this instance, there

very charming costume of this kind
is made from wool Bedford cord in q
beautiful shade of tan. There is a
three-piece skirt with prettily over
Tapped edges at the front and slight
drapery at the back. The coat is
loose and square, almost box in shape,
but stops at the hip line and is open at
the side seams to the belt. It includes
three-quarter sleeves with prettily
shaped cuffs and an important feature
is found in the crossed over waist
coat of satin that is finished by a
belt Of real Chinese embroidery.
Somewhere, somehow, the bit Of
bright color must be found if the COS
tune is truly smart. Suits Of this kind
are made from silk Bedford cord, from
the silk eponge that is one of the
novelties, from whole host of in
teresting fabrics. Accompanying
them must be blouse of matching
color and dainty material. Then,
they can be worn for the bridge

for afternoon tea or even for the tea

There arc great many fascinating
: little short coats being used for cos
tunes of this kind and they are made
variously of plain and of fancy ma
terials. For the most part, they are
short in front and slightly elongated
in the back and, consequently. they
preserve the prevailing lines. For the
carriage and the motor, crepes and
other soft silks are used and brighter
colors prevail sthan upon the street.

FASHION NOTES OF INTEREST.

w interesting discussions on the
subject of dress this spring.
First there was the much exploited
idea of American fashions; then there
came contrasting exhibitions and now
no less person than M. Worth is here
to talk to us directly from the Partisan
standpoint. Everyone who has made
even a little study of sartorial mat
tiers must know that the name of
Worth stands for genuine art in the
direction of dress. When NJ. Worth
tells us that it will require generations
for America to acqti-e the art sense
and the designers sense that has come
to the French through ages of study
and development, he is quite within
the truth, as every thinking person
must admit. When he tells us that
the very scanty Ahts. the close
fit will not soon 60 out Of style because
women like them, we must listen
with the respect due great authority
and, unhappily. we must admit that
there is much truth in his statement.
No style ever really succeeded that
the women themselves did not like.
So far as it is possible to analyze, it,
would seem that the general effect Of
youthfulnesS produced by the present
fashions is their one dominating charm.
We live in an age that demands eternal
youth. = witness the beauty psrlorA

of the Oriental shown in many ways.
Plain bright color used in combina-
ton with quiet tones is much in favor,
too, and often it gives beautiful results.
A gown of black charmeuse crepe is
made with accompanying little coat Of
bright cerise. A very lovely gown
shows the fashionable pale gray COM
bined with old blue. There is a skirt
draped at the front over a plain
foundation and a bodice with long, close
sleeves sewed to it at the dropping
shoulder line. The fronts of this
bodice meet at the bust line but part

the treatment. AS the edges of the

could be used with success. Some OF
the new materials show narrow borders

Fort Worth is getting together for
another packing plant. Hogs are

The fruit and truck farmer should
keep that in mind. Also, hogs are i'm

a masterpiece. G. NJ. Anderson in
"Broncho Billy's Oath" is real

A COUNTY ROAD SUGGESTION.

The roads leading out Of Bryan, and
particularly the road to the A. and NJ.
College, are badly cut to pieces, and
very rough, as a result Of the late
rains. Just little work with drags
or graders when the rains ceased
would have put them in excellent con-
dition, but 1t seems not to have been
done.
This claim for the drag, is not an
idle statement, or what we believe
about the matter, but its truthfulness
has been demonstrated right here on
our roads where everybody saw it and
knows that what we say is true. They
will do the work How to get them, and
have them used after each rainy spell
is the question. 1t can be done all
right, the county is plenty able and
has the resources to keep good roads
all the year round, and the people are
entitled to them.
Outside of the schools, the people in
the country get nothing for their taxes
except roads and bridges and they
should have good ones.
The roads leading out of Bryan have
all been well graded, have splendid
foundations and about all they need is
to be dragged after each rain. To az
complish this is a task the commits.
sioners court should set its hand to
right now, and not relinguish it until

MEXICAN KILLED

Julio Veyra, a Mexican waiter who
has been working at the Mess Hall at
College since the first of the month,
was found nearly beaten to death this
morning about o'clock by one of the
negroes on J. C. Boyett's place. The
Mexican was about 100 feet from the
car line, and also close to the negro
cottages. His skull was cracked and
his head was badly swollen and all
covered with blood
The ground around where he lay
was tramped down, showing that a
hard struggle took place before his
assailant got the best of him. The
head waiter at the Mess Hall says
veyra had worked on the railroad up
to the first of the month, and had
saved about 5000, which he had in his
pockets when he left College, but
which was missin when he was
found. According to others, he was
accompanied by another Mexican when
he left, but If so, the Mexican can not
be located.
The wounded Mexican was taken to
the College and given emdical atten'
ton, but died in short while.
The officers are at work on the case
but no arrests have been made.
