REAL SIMPLE LIFE.
Strange Circumstances Found by
Salesman on Top of Blue
Ridge Mountains.
Especial TO The Times Dispatch.1

LynchburE. Va, June 22-That truth
Is stranger than fiction has again been
demonstrated by a Virginia mountain
section as is evidenced by story Just
brought to Lynchburg by C. A. Tan
ner. travelling salesman from GIadya
who was sent into the Businesses of
the Blue Ridge Mountains to make O.
trade for threshing machine with a
native, who lives on the top of the
ridge. The man wrote to manufac-
turing concern, wanting to trade
second hand threshing machine in on
the purchase of new one. Mr.. Tan
ner was sent to make the deal.
Driving from Arlington about thirty
mlies across Nelson County to a point
less than fifty miles from Lynchburg
and not that far from the University
Of Virginia or the city Of Staunton,
Tanner saw things he did not think
could exist in Virginia, even at the top
OF ridge of the Blue Ridge chain of
mountains
Arriving at the home. four miles up
the mountain over rough roads. Tanner
found two-room log cabin. in which
his prospective customer. his wife, and
six children made their home. The
head Of the house was absent, and
the salesman had to wait for his re-
turn In this time he found that none
OF the six children had before seen an
ordinary carriage, such as which he
made the trip in. Only one of them
had ever been to school, this little
boys education extending over a por-
ton OF one school term. None of them
had ever been to church, and a Bible
was not in evidence. the only sign OF
civilization being a copy of a Lynch
burg paper several month. old. The
children were presented with dime
apiece. and it was their first glimpse
OF such n coin. They did not know
the use of money. Asking for a match
TO light a cigarette, Mr.. Tanner found
the family had not had a match in the
cabin for three months. fire being kept
by smouldering bark pile on the
hearth.
Even under such conditions OF civ
ilization the salesman made his sale
and left, after being furnished an ex-
cellent though simple, dinner
Not far distant from the home re-
ferred TO- Mr.. Tanner came across an
other family. that of a man who claims
to be on Indian, who. with his wife and
fourteen children, made their home in
a one-room log ca bin. In the room
the only evidence OF furniture was a
barrel stove. and this was the only
thing used for cooking The family
had the appearance of Indians They
were illiterate and wholly ignorant
of all things save the simple life in
which they moved. excepting they use
modern implements for farming, and
cultivate crops usually grown in this
climate.

Paris frocks for autumn all have riese
lovely pleated frillings at the neck:
but it is not likely that this form Of
neck trimming will last very long after
winter coats, and especially winter
furs are donned for anything worn

Incorporated in the new neekwear in
company with the fashionable net, or

full fichu OF net and machine embroid-
ery. attached to an embroidery collar.
Strips of the fine embroidery turn
back from the in~er edges of the fichu
and a frill of val lace finishes the
outer edges and the smartly shaped
little collar which stands up behind
the neck to give the thickened line at
the top of the bodice.
The collar of embroidery with
pleated frill of hemmed batste is in
tended for wear with summer frocks
of linen, eponge or dimity; or it may
be donned over an afternoon frock of
charmeuse or lansdowne having one
ices of the moment. This collar is

day frock for evening wear, comes the
f1chu. The loveliest fichus of net and
lace with pleated frills and upstand
ing Marie Stuart collars at the back
may be had for couple of dollars
and one of these graceful fichus will
entirely change the appearance of the
dark street gown. One capable little
woman who spends her summers on
the Jersey Coast and comes into town
during the mid-week to "look around"
the shops, lunch at the Ritz, take in
matinee and dine with the husband
who can get away to the shore only
at weekend time; has the question
of wardrobe down to fine point. Her
going-to- town frock is of black crepe
de chine and is simply made, with a
draped skirt and bloused bodice
opening in surplice fashion at the
front. Setting forth in the morning
she wears, with the surpliced bodice a
deep collar of creamy machine en-
broidery edged with net, and string
of white coral beads. White silk
gloves and a neatly drawn chin veil
of black dotted yelling complete a
very natty shopping and lunching cos
tune. Just before the dinner hour
she repairs to the pay dressing room
at the railroad station; removes her
frock and bathes neck and arms in
hot water to which dash of toilet
water from a small bottle carried in
her handb bag is added. Hair done
over, manicuring attended to and a
trifie of powder whisked over her
freshly bathed face, she feels a differ
ent woman. Next, the shields, at
tached inside her bodice with small
safety pins, are removed and fresh
ones INSTRUMENTATION makes the
bodice feel also cool and different.
Instead of the cream embroidery col
| lar of the morning now somewhat
soiled and mussed, a net fichu with a
| pleated frill is slipped on and pinned
in place before the surplice black
bodice is donned. A string of amber
beads replaces the white coral string
of the morning; out of the hand bag
comes a big, soft pale yellow rose
which is securely pinned to the black,
tulle-trimmed hat. the face veil being
folded and tucked back into the bag.
The white silk gloves are rolled up
/ compactly and tucked in with the veil
and in their place are donned long,
silken gloves of palest buff with the
pretty Niagara Maid embroideries on
the wrist. The soiled shields are
thrown away, the fresh ones having
been purchased during the day; and
presto, my lady emerges ready for
dinner. with nothing to show for so
complete toilet except her well sup
piled little wrist-bag of pin seal.

III thick, chunky neck swathed in
w. folds or pleatings of fabric; and
the slender, unswathed throat, rising
in the manner that used to be likened
to the "stem of a flower" from slop
ing shoulders, looks really bare and
attentuated, so accustomed has the
fashion instructed eye become to
| bulky effects.
This craze for thick necl1s Is in line,
of course, with the vogue of Oriental
nodes In the far East collars are
unknown and draperies tossed over
the shoulder swathe the neck at the
back in soft folds. The thick effect,
by the way, is only at the back; in
front bodices and coats open deeply
often more deeply than modesty quite
endorses-folds of soft tulle or lace
being drawn over the flesh within the
decolletage. Even women who would
have laughed, six months ago, at the
idea of bungling up their neck and
shoulder line with frills and folds OF
fabric are coming to it now; and the
craze for pleated frills is demonstrated
at every neckwear counter where the
request for pleated frilling is met with
the disconcerting; "Oh yes we carry
it, but have none at present-we sim
ply can't keep it in stock, it goes so
fast" Since the delicate net and tulle
pleatings become soiled almost in a
single wearing in warm weather,
large supply is required by every
woman who dresses in the mode, and
the number of yards necessary to
supply city-full of femininity may
well be imagined. Many women are
buying wider frilling-at double the
price of course-and cutting it down
to the required width. And lace frill-
| ing, sold cheerfully to the unwary,
will not do from a fashion standpoint.
for net or tulless the thing. the lat
ter sort looks prettiest at first, for the
slight dressing in the tulle makes the
frill stand up smartly behind the neck;
| but alasi this dainty crispness is very
evanescent, and a humid, sultry aft
ernoon will usually settle 1t once and
for all, leaving it in a crumpled, hope
less string by the time the bodice is
removed.
| These pretty pleated frills running
around the back Of the neck and down
each side of the bodice front, with
softly drawn f1chu folds of net cross
ing in a deep V over the bosom, give
an adorably sweet and feminine look
to the plainest face-and they merci-
fully disguise age marks on the neck,
below the ears, also. A string of pearl
or white coral beads. preferably the
latter, finishes the effect; and the mod
ish string of beads now falls in a deep
loop corresponding with the deep v
of the neck opening, rather than
merely encircling the throat as did the
bead string of last season.
When desired, the folds of tulle
forming the fichu between the bodice
fronts may be pinned higher at the
neck; or dainty frilled jabot may be
donned to give higher-necked ef-
feet. Such a jabot--one of the new
models of net, is pictured. Two tap
ering frills mounted on a narrow
