upon the tax payers Of the village Of
Demng aud the county Of Luna an
enormous bonded Indebtedness which
will be u mortgage inheritance to the
future generations, thereby perpetrat-
ing the greatest moral wrong and in
Justice, without giving the people an
adequate recompense in the way of
protection or Improvement Of material

the voters and tax payers Of this

the present iniquitous fee system
which at present prevails.

Do you remember the old military coat
that Trilby of immortal fame used to
wear when Billie, the Laird and Taffee
first made her acquaintance? Well. some
thing very like that has become the in
spiration for new street models Of serge,
broadcloth and velvet And the better

the color is likely to be army blue. khaki
or the brilliant red shade associated with
the regimentals of French soldiers.
Braid is an essential feature. Not the
braid bindings that have become a bit
common during the last few weeks, but
frogs, strappings and ornaments that sug-
gest the epaulettes of an officers coat.
In fact, sometimes even the epaulettes
are present in the form of black braid
interviewer with gold threads

and straight across the back, leaving the
throat exposed; or the stiff choker band
which completely enswathes the throat.

1t may be Of fur-in fact. it is impera-
tive that ii should be of fur. IL il makes
pretonsiOn to style qualities. Sealskin,
astrakhan, beaver, marten, monkey, are
all appropriate and contrast well with the
approved color of the military scheme Of
the new suits. In nearly every instance
the cuffs are cut extremely wide and the
necessity for carrying a muff is done
away with. since the bands are slipped
crosswise under the edge of the opposite
sleeve. This makes convenient arrange
ment for walking or shopping, where fire.
quently the muff is in the way.
One Of the most attractive models Of re-
cent weeks has the coat of army blue
lined with bright red; the collar and
cuffs are Of blue suede and tho revers
are faced with suede; the skirt is very
short and fails in inconspicuous folds
about the high laced shoe tops. The lat
ter are of suede the color of the suit
trimmings, the vamps being of patent
leather.
With this costume was worn an odd
little hat, built somewhat like the head
gear of the Cossacks. 1t was of velvet OF
buff tone, banded with sealskin and
having. by way of ornament. stiff brush
algrette headed by a gold braid rosette.
The girl wearing this military toggery
was not in the least Of the Amazon type
On the contrary, she was rather a de-
mure little object with chestnut brown
hair and blue eyes, the cerulean tones of
the latter being intensified by the blue
ness Of the costume.

"slovenly writing is the result of
