Fashion has been kind this season
to the woman who must continue to
combine the qualities of the evening
gown with those of the afternoon
frock. The wide introduction of dia-
phonous sleeves and the semi-low neck,
that are featured in daytime dresses,
make the combination less oificult
than in other seasons
The gown in the sketch offers a good
illustration of that sort of model. 1t

white tulle.

with a narrow band of ermine to match
the trimming about the armholes. The
sleeves are of tulle. made very long
and held in about the wrist by ermine
bands.
At the back OF the neck there is a
collar cut a Ia militaire and made of
white velvet. Its shape is very much
more becoming and infinitely more
comfortable to the majority of women
than the departing Medici effects. The

November 2T-Fanny KenbIe, "Per-

press Of Russia.

Fanny Kemble, who was born los years
ago today. has been described in these
words: "Cleverness and audacity, re-
finement and coarseness, modesty and
bounce, pretty. humility and prettier ar
rogance." She was bundle of contra
dictions. Many critics disliked her act
ing intensely, IL was generally agreed
that she did not really understand the
art Of acting But others fairly adored
her. One thing was understood and that
was that she would always have a string
Of elderly, rather serious admirers who
for some reason were bewitched by her
sparkling, saucy, boisteFous personality.
Among these were the historian iMacau-
ley and the American poet, Longfellow.
Perdita" Robinson was an actress OF
an entirely different stamp from Fanny
Kemble. Her real name was Mary Rob-
inson and she was born November q,
175S. She was an Irish girl and her
father had whaling interests in New
England so that some Of Mary's earlier
years were spent in America. Mary led
a wandering sort of life at first She
was married unfortunately, she tried to
write verse, she spent ten months in
prison for debt and finally she went on
the stage. It was when she was playing
the role of Perdita in THE Winters
Tale" that she captivated the prince, who
later became King George " of Eng
land. The letters that he wrote to the
captivator were addressed to "Perdita."
The princes infatuation did not last long,
but for some reason 1t became very well
known-partIy perhaps owing to the very
large settlement that "Perdita'' managed
to get from her royal admirer
The Dowager Empress of Russia, Marie
Feodorovna, was born November q, 1SI7,
and was married to the father of the
present Car Of Russia when she was
nineteen.

Mizzi Hajos. the sparkling little
comedienne in "Sari." has two fads.
One is furs. the other footwear. Miss
Hajos has iays magnificent sets of furs,
ermine and sable. She does not wear
sealskin because she does not care for
it. Her two fur coats are Of sable and
they are worth a small fortune.
But probably her stronger fancy is
for shoes and stockings.
Miss Hajos has a remarkably pretty
foot and-well. let's be frank about it

She has as pretty a foot as there is on
and she has the reputation of dressing
her feet better than any other actress.
This. Is her hobby.
She has two good-siZed trunks filled
with shoes. These trunks are made to
order. The trays are divided into
compartments. each of a size to contain
q pair of shoes. The compartments are
felt lined so the shoes will not scratch.
or course, all of Miss HaJos' shoes are
made to order and the investment is
Furthermore. there is q pair Of trees
for each pair of shoes.
Quite as important in Miss Hajos'
as her shoes are her stock
ings. She gets them of the very finest
texture, of all hues and shades. and
she has a fondness for embroidery on
them. The more elaborate hosiery is
for stage and house wear. On the street
Miss Hajos wears fine. but plain hos

THE DIRT IN CANDY.
Move Made In Salt Lake City for
Pure Candy.

SAS NoAoys
Salt Lake City has taken up the mat
ter of the purity of its supply of con-
fectionery. 1t was moved thereto by
the publication of an article by Prof.
s. c. Prescott. of Technology, with ref
erence to Investigations in this city and
the importance with which it is re-
garded is shown by the fact that in the
Western city of 125.000 there is detail
ed apparently one inspector especially
for the work. Cultures have been
taken from the machines and the mate
rial in all the factories and from the
hands of employees. The same treat
ment has been accorded to the stores
and many matters found which point
ed to possible contamination. The reg
ulations now require the covering of
candy and its protection from dust and
flies.
1t is unfortunate that the ice cream
business and the making of candy
comes so often into the hands of for
eigners who have a sanitary code quite
at variance with that of this country.
and who follow with diflculty the reg
ulations of American health officiaIs.
requiring constant watching and en-
failing much trouble, but such is the
case. Candy is peculiarly a product
that should be watched. since its sticky
nature causes 1t to acquire not only the
dust that may be floating in the air
but the dirt of utensils. benches and
employees hands. The boxes that are
sealed come into the hands of the con-
sumer as they left the factory. but
most of the product leads a rather
sticky existence from the point of view
of cleanliness. And II is the product

fur may have the collar of her frock
made of fur.
This model suggests to the inventive
woman all sorts of combination possi-
bilities- For example. the foundation
skirt can be made of some one of the
rich. dark plated velvets with the long
overpanels of plain velvet or OF cloth.
In that case the sleeves would be of
chiffon. matching the color of the
plain fabric, and fancy braid could be
substituted for the fur bands Of the
original garment.
By cutting the neck a little lower
and using lace fiounces where the orig
inal model shows tulle. a full evening

The persistent and increasing appear
ance of the street suit of covert cloth
here in New York is a surprising thing.
Years ago when covert cloth was used
for coats. occasionally for suits, it was
considered smart. But when it made its
1t was hailed as an ugly fabric. too stiff
too colorless for beauty Its short re-
incarnation was predicted
But covert cloth is still worn by smart
women. And more of them wear it every
week. 1t may eventually reach the fate
it reached once beforee. Popularity may
overtake it and then, of course, its fash
ion will be doomed.
In the meantime. covert cloth is a
very good choice for street wear. For
tunately, no attempt has been made to
elaborate it. 1t is worn solely for Sc
yerely tailoreed street suits or tOpcoats.
A single model was the basis for the
first covert cloth suits And perhaps
they were the best and that original
model may still be wisely chosen. It
has skirt fiaring slightly at the ankles.
The jacket reaches just below the hips,
and there is a loose belt a little below
the waist. There are long tight sleeves
and the Jacket buttons up to high col
lar with bone buttons.
Sometimes, of course this model is
Inc mas pledlS Nd-
riety. sometimes The jacket is occa-
sionally cut to fit to the figure in Louis
XIV fashion and the fronts are long and
pointed. Sometimes, in a few instances,
there are revers and the collar turns
back.
Bone buttons of mottled brown are the
sole trimming for these covert cloth suits.
excepting occasionally a band Of fur at
