PAYING LESS FOR DRESSES
One Thing That the Woman OF Today
Has Some Reason to Be
Thankful For.

Grace Margaret Gould, fashion edi-
tor of the Woman's Home Companion,
makes the point that the material re-
quired for one dress eight years ago
will make two costumes and blouse
today. She publishes picture of a
silk dress that was the height of fash.
ion eight years ago. She says that 1t
required exactly 1874 yards of 32inch
material to make this dress. She says
that the fabric then required for the
full sleeves would make an ordinary
fashionable waist of today. She goes
on to say:
I'm these days, when the cost OF liv-
ing seems to be constantly on the in
crease and fashions are regarded as
extravagant in the extreme, 1t is inter
esting to stop and look back bit.
When we have to pay more than we
have ever paid before for most of the
necessities of life let us be thankful
that we are at least paying less for our
dresses"

Corset Pocket.

One rarely knows just what to do
with a corset when 1t is not being
worn. There is, OF course, the en-
broidered linen bag, scented and be-
ribboned, for ones very best corset
But what is to be done with the morn
ing corset? Perhaps you roll 1t up
and shove 1t in the bottom drawer OF
a bureau, thereby mussing carefully
ironed waist? Here is an idea which
| hope you will like as well as | do:
Take a piece OF cretonne, four inches
longer than the length of your corset,
and. after folding under an inch all
around, tack 1t on the INSIDE of your
closet door. Put the tacks about two
inches apart-brassheaded ones will
do nicely-down the length and across
the bottom of the cretonne, leaving
the top open. The corset SHOULD be
rolled up to be put in the pocket

There is nothing that will mar the

$4,000 PEARL WAS LOST
Absent-Mlnded Attorney Put II In Hls
Pocket and Forgot
About II.

New York.-A $4,000 pink pearl,
one of the most beautiful of its type
in existence, was lost in Part w of the
supreme court, where it was the bone
of contention between a rich jewelry
firm and a society woman. Bailiffs
crouched under chairs looking for II
on the floor; lawyers paved about
among papers on their long desk In
search of 1t. It was the gem for whose
possession Ludwig Nissen & Co. have
been suing Mrs. Jules ]. Vatable, who
was, before her marriage. Miss Eliza
beth c. Stokes Of Tuxedo.
Ludwig Nissen declared It had been
stolen from him in 1907 by J. Edward
Boeck, who had sold II in San Fran
cisco, and demanded that the pearl be
returned to him. Mrs. Vatable. hav
ing bought It in good faith, naturally
would not return 1t. Hence the suit
After a thorough search of the court
room had been made Mr.. Kellogg, Mrs
Vatable's attorney, discovered that hi
had absent-mindedly put the pearl II
his pocket.

BRITISH MINT MAKES RECORD
Number Of Coins and Value Exceed
Former Outputs Both In Value and
Number Of Coins.

London.-The output Of the royal
mint in 1912 largely exceeded, both in
value and In the number of coins pro
duced, all previous records. Sir I. H..
Elliott deputy master of the mint,
states in his annual report that near
ly 162,500,000 imperial coins were
struck there during the year, and that
this number exceeded the highest pre-
vious figure OF any year by nearly 34,-
100000.
The gold coinage exceeded that OF
1911 by about 100000 pieces. The
number OF pieces struck In silver has
only once been exceeded, in 1910.
though the value of the coinage in this
metal In 1912 was greater than In
any previous year. The coinage In
bronze numbers upwards of 100000
pieces OF a value of $1,257,010. figures
which are unprecedented for any year.
The heavy imperial coinages made 1t
again impossible to undertake all the
colonial orders which we're rendered,
and only some 100000 OF colonial
coins were struck, a smaller number
than in any year since 1890. The total
coinage OF the year amounted to over
I'll 100000 pieces OF currency value
OF upwards of $1s2,5O0,000, the high
est figure on record.
