are shown. hats. dresses, coats. suits.
shirt waists. and silk underskirts. At
tention is given to the suits and coats,
especially the evening garments. which
the brocaded materials have made at
tractlve and rich looking this season.
Millinery now, and for a time, will
be of chief interest to the majority Of
persons The keynote 20 autumn head
gear is color. and It Is with great joy
that one notices the decided tendency
toward the artistic. Real autumn
shades are used, scarlets, burnt reds.
and browns. and brilliant greens. The
great wave OF the draped effect mani
tests itself in the soft gathered crowns
of the hats. Very few. il any, have
stiff crowns, SIDE crowns are scarce.
and even the edge of the brim is some
times shirred. Trimmings are OF os-
trich. numidi, and goura. in this es-
tablishment, few here and there be-
ing of fruit or ribons. A very attrac-
tive method of adding to a hat is
also very simple. Ribbon is brought
around the crown, then twisted very
tightly over a wire. and loops pulled
standing decoration like a stif flower.
Most trimmings are outstanding, and
the velvet hat predominates. One
home made model has soft tam
crown, shirred brim, and is trimmed
solely by band of brilliant orange red
ribbon, made into one of the ribbon
outstanding flowers at the side.
French sailors have plain stiff brims
about two or three inches wide. stin
side crowns. and soft crush crowns.
The side decoration Is very tall, max
ing this style of hat very adaptable to
large women.
Some of the imported French mate
rials are very beautiful. Peau de peche
Is a soft material like fine chamois or
chiffon cloth. 1t comes in the most
original shades, variations of mahogany
and green, and Is used for the smaller
hats One little French model OF this
material is made with a stif visible
bandeau covered with black velvet.
The facing OF the brim is Of black vel
vet, and the remainder of the hat is OF
peau de peche in rose mahogany
shade. At the side, under the brim,
are fastened two small apples in COM
Elementary colors.
The opening includes all of the de-
partments. Fall goods of all kinds are
ready for the inspection of autumn
shoppers.

.FACETIOUS STORY
OF The $34.72
For Each Person in U. S.
Brings Many Requests

Washington, D. c., Jan. ia news
paper story discussing the per capita
circulation of the money in the United
States in a humorous vein has flooded
the treasury department with applica-
tons for the $S472, which, if the ma
TONS wealth were divided equally,
would be the possession of every man,
woman and child. The story face
tiously advised those who needed the
money to draw upon the government.
Dozens of letters today swamped
George E. Roberts, director of the
mint One woman wrote:
Kindly send me by parcels post my
dividend of the 1880, 727OOO which is
$34.72 in one dollar bills and 70 PEN
MES. l want the money all in dollar
bills, so my husband can't hear it
rattle in my stocking. If he gets the
pennies, guess l can stand their loss
better than if he got the entire sum.
Another applicant said he was a
married man with large family and
he hoped the government would not DE
offended by his request for his own.
He added also that as he is a repub-
lican he does not expect to apply for
overnment position under the in
coming administration
Mr.. Roberts has drawn a circular
letter in which he must disappoint the
applicants with the information that
the treasury department monhly COM
putes the per capita circulation on a
theoretical basis, and has no control
over its distribution.
