WELL DRESSED man
ROBS LITTLE NEWSBOY

Atlanta, Ca, Sept. 11-Tiny Tommy
Mann, aged thirteen, living in East
Point, was hustling his "wuxtrys" late
last night when well-dressed man
approached him near the Terminal sta
ton with the tempting offer of twenty
five cents, if the lad would help carry
two suit cases.
Little Tommy, keen to earn the coin
and stuck" on four of his papers, fol-
lowed the stranger to the rear of the
Terminal station where it was very
dark and no place at all for any one
to look for grips or baggage.
Without warning, the man threw the
newsie to the ground and rapidly went
throuhg the lads pockets. He took
e5 cents, the proceeds of the bids en-
tire days work, and fed
Just as he released the little fellow
the child robber laughingly said:
"Kidlets, l need this whole lot
more than you do
Tommy told his tale to the Terminal
police oficer.

FURS ORAPGD NOW!

Nine out Of ten OF the latest models
show the vogue for drapery which the
extreme suppleness Of the popular furs
has made sossble Until one sees the
draping Of these furs. it Is hard to realize
that anything us bulky as fur can be
drapcd so gracefully and so easily OF
course mole and broadtsil are almost as
pliable as velvet or silk, but even the
seal and sable coats are draped with
great success. This fact is clearly dem
onstrated by a coat IN Hudson seal which
is built on the loose, kimono lines, and
fastened over tightly across the hips.

kiMoNO SLEEVE STILL HERE.
The kimono sleeve is likewise seen a.

There is still another new muf which
must have been designed by a woman.
for who else would have appreciated the
NECESSITY for a shoppers mun? Not
only is there an inner bag, or pocket, for
the little articles that one picks up in
a days shopping. but there Is fur

from the shoulder. and there is no like
