"Tll do that for him, and gladly"

"This time l was speaking general

some of the ways reporters have"
That's only a small part OF the
business" laughed Wright. "If you
complain only about that | shall have
you for staunch adherent."
Mrs. Hayes saw that Kendall was
at loss to understand the drift of
the conversation, and accordingly
said. "Dr. Hayes is coroner, Mr.. Ken
dali, and the Banner man calls us up
at most unearthly hours"
The Belmont Banner was the morn

uERE are four pieces of neckwear,
III in the prevailing styles, which are
handsome enough to be valued posses
sions in any woman's stock of dress
accessories. Yet the materials of
which they are made cost next to
nothing. Fifty cents or less is about
the amount which will buy thread and
braid for the handmade pieces. 1t
will certainly buy enough of the all
over shadow lace to make the at
tractive collar and jabot, and cover
the expense of the tiny buttons of
black satin used as finishing touch
on the pretty collar at the right of the
picture.
Hand work, tastefully and we'll
done, means elegance in dress acces-
sories. The crocheted collar is made
Of three separate pieces Joined to-
gether. They are an Irish lace pat
tern and not at all difficult to make.
There is an insertion an inch and a
half or little less in width and from
IL to Is inches long, depending upon
the size of the neck to be fitted. Two
wider strips of the crochet are made,
each half as long as the insertion less
one or one and fourth inches. These
pieces are finished with a scallop
about the outside edges.
When all the pieces have been cro-
cheted they are sewed together as
shown in the picture. Baby velvet
ribbon In sapphire blue, or any pre-
feTred color is run through the edges
Of the insertion. This is necessary to
keep the collar from stretching at the
top. A small piece of wider velvet
ribbon in the small color is tackled In
at the front. Finally a tiny bow
made of the crocheted insertion is
sewed to the velvet strip.
This collar should be stayed with
supports at the back and sSes. It
will fit perfectly, as the lace will
stretch and spread at the bottom and
adjust itself to the neck.
The pretty fichu is made of renais-
sance braid and floss, with three small
lace medallions inserted: one at the

maintained stubbornly. "I'll come back

That's what I'm going to try to

rose to rejoin Mrs. Gilbert and her
guests.
The attorneys entered the drawing
room to find a discussion regarding
newspapers just drawing to a close

English fabric, and less luster. AL
though the French achieve exquisite
white they are not as successful as
English manufacturers in the dying
of black in this particular fabric.
One Of the smart new models for
fall is pictured here made of black
English Grape on a medium sized
frame. The facing of white Is espe-
cially admirable on this particular
shape, as 1t defines the graceful curve
of the left brim. White next the face
Is becoming to everyone, and the
combination of black and white Grape,
when managed by competent design
er, is brilliant and elegant above al
most every other.
Nearly all trimmings for Grape hats
are made of Grape. They must always
be we'll made and used with modeIa-
tion. Mourning millinery, to be taste
full. must depend upon it's display of
careful workmanship rather than its
abundance of trimming. Fortunately
there is no fabric which gives the
maker a better opportunity to show
her skill than Grape.
The prevailing styles in shapes are
well adapted to this character of mil
linery. The small, close-fitting bon
net-like hats and the narrow-brimmed,
soft-crowned models, as well as that
increasing number classed as Rem
brandt" hats, give. the designer an un-
limited choice. They insure becom-
ing hat for every one who will take
time to make the proper choice.
The hat shown in the picture is
very generally becoming Except for
the facing the frame is covered with
black Grape.

Amos Gilbert was one of these.
Fond, ambitious mothers held up to

Amos Gilbert from an humble home

mark that each and every one, indi-
yidual, partnership or corporation,
could be favored by some political
turn or damaged by some political
machination. They found 1t better to
employ Judge Gilbert than to trust to

A piece Of striped shadow lace,

along the edges. A strip the required
length Of the collar is curved along its
upper edge to fit the. neck and then
hemmed all around and stayed with
wire supports at the back and sides.
A small triangular piece is set on at
the middle front. This supports the

lace hemmed at the ends and with
edges joined below the triangle. A
dozen little buttons, satin-covered, or
little rhine-stones or pearl buttons,
make an elegant finish for this piece.
