Dancing costumes are now the sub
ject of much interest. But 1t Is not
to be supposed that the feminine en-
thusiast for the dance is properly at
tired when simply robed in pretty,
dressy gown. Every article of apparel
must conform to Terpsichorean re-
quirements. Dancing-shoes of course,
and these are now most fashionable
when modelled after the Greek cothurn,
with, however, broad fiat heels at
tached. Hosiery assumes many fan
tatic aspects, one of the latest novel
/ ties being hose of large-mesh hexagon-
al net, black and white, worn over
plain hose matching or contrasting
with the gown. The tango" corset
| has become quite a matter of course.
This is the merest girdle above the
waist, silky and supple, and made with
elastic inserts below the waist to per-
nit perfect freedom of movement
Tango" undergarments are designed
to allow free play of the limbs. The
dancing cap, which fits close to the
head, keeping the couture firmly in
place, but with no outstanding orna-
ment to annoy one cavalier, is pretty
conceit.
Modern methods of house-heating
are responsible for the delightful Gus
tom of wearing wash frocks in winter.
There is no good reason why wo-
man living in a steam-heated house or
apartment should not assume the
sheerest sort of apparel indoors, and
many are availing themselves of this
privilege. The second figure illus

bright little woman who makes her
own clothes. The material is an alb
solute novelty. A white cotton wolfe
is embroidered with a double border
of plaid in old blue and maroon. The
first border is eight and half inches
wide; the second, which came after 6
plain interval of four inches, is three
inches wide. The skirt proper, some
. what scanty in width, is of plain wolfe
matching in quality the foundation o

tunic of the bordered fabric droopin,

NEWS FORECAST FOR
THE COMING WEEK.

Washington, Nov. 29.-The first
regular session of the Sixty-third
Congress will be convened at noon
Monday, at which time the life of the
special session, which has been in ses-
sion since April Z, will expire by con-
stitutional limitation. AS the two
houses already are organized and the
legislative machinery in running or
der it is likely that the regular SEES
sion will lose little time in getting
down to business.
President Wilson has signified his
| intention to read his annual message
to the two houses. 1t is expected that
the message will be much shorter than
the country has been accustomed to II
late years and that it will be confined
only to the most important matters
1t is confidently expected also tha
the President will give most attention
to the subject of the trusts and will
probably make plain his views con
corning an antitrust measure tina
he would like to see Congress enac
into law this winter.
Not alone the proceedings of Cor
gress but other matters as we'll, wi

national capital during the week.
From Monday until Saturday the Ma
tional American Woman Suffrage AS
ISOLATION will hold forth in its forty
fifth annual convention. On Friday a
delegation of women will appear be-
fore committees of the two houses of
Congress and urge the adoption of a
constitutional amendment to give the
women of the entire country the right
to vote.
The tenth annual convention of the
National Rivers and Harbors Congress
will begin it's session in Washington
Wednesday. The convention is eX'
pected to be of unusual interest in
view of the agitation going on, not
only in the United States, but in Eu
ropean countries as well, over the free
| toll provisions of the Panama cana
bill, and the 3 per cent rebate giver
ships flying the American flag, anC
engaged in foreign trade. Presiden
Wilson will deliver the opening ad

ably make known the position he take
on matters relative to waterway in
provement and their relation to tn
subject of transportation.

day evening of this week when he was
knocked from an engine in his charge
as it was passing beneath the Third

with serious bruises and a slight frac-

Mr.. Wright was placed in charge of a

We will send you samples from such

These samples are selected, not so much

Mr.. Stewart has given me samples of
Maine grown seed potatoes, which
through the kindness of the First Ma
tional Bank of Oakland will be placed in
their window so that all may see the
various types.
For future trade of the county would
now suggest that our farmers look care
fully into this subject and follow Mr..

Plant few varieties, and make those
such as the trade calls for, Green Noun
tain, Irish Cobbler and Early Rose.
In a recent address Gov. Goldsbor-
ough said in part: 1T Is time that
farmers should be showing interest in
new methods of agriculture that have
been worked out on scientific principles.
The main trouble is that farmers are
to change from the old meth
DDS that came down from generation to
generation. "
If we want a market, we must pro-
duce in quantity what that market
wants. Now is a good time to try the
new method of team work.
Very truly yours,
