lures of noted actresses on this page
(women who must, of all the world,
always be up-to-date in their hair
dressing), simplicity will be the key
note of the coiffures for this coming
winter and false hair will be very little
seen.
Ribbon bands about the hair are
no longer worn even by the very
young girls, and the tulle bows and
feathers of other days are also banned
by Dame Fashion. together with the
fad of colored wigs, which seems to
have reached the end of its little run
of popularity.
For the older women powdered hair
will still be fashionable for evenings,
since it is still seen considerably in
London and Paris, the snow white
hair being very becoming to most
women, especially when combined
with a frock of black or pale-tinted
brocade.

SALIENT FEATURES OF AUTUMN
FASHIONS SHOWN m PARIS

e / i E.
There is strong tendency towards
sian tunics falling over them to with
in an inch or two of the hem.
Long straight basques buttoning
down the front are shown on some
of the smart models for early au-
tumn.
Braids of all kinds trim the smart
tailored suits for the autumn; gilt
braid so narrow it is scarcely an
edging is very popular for use on
dark blue suits and capes.
The waist line is apparent in the
new evening gowns, and froclls in-
tended for formal occasions when
there is no dancing have very mar
row, long trains of velvet and bro
cade.
Tiny capes of lace and of tulle
trim evening frociss, deeper capes Of
brocade and lace are worn for alter
Moons, and the street suits show
sweeping capes instead of coats.
Lace and Jet are the main features
In the realm of trimming for the
coming season.
Metallic weaves and taffeta, and
the new heavy satins lead in favor
for the more elaborate gowns of the
autumn, while heavy weaves of cot
ton goods are shown for the simpler
costumes, many of them somewhat
incongruously trimmed with fur.
Hats for the early autumn are
mostly of white and are small in
shape, trimmed with high feathers in
a contrasting sco1or, white peacock
feathers being especially popular.

HAIR DRESSING

And safely hid all their own fair
And-wi1at has become of the last

One must duly apologize to Villon
for such parody on his wonderful
ballad of last years SHOWS, but the
fact remains that fashions in hair
dressing do fade with the SHOWS, and
are as soon forgotten as the fakes
even less false hair used than during
the summer for the little side wins

and temple curls" have alike been
put aside by conservative women, and
part either in the middle or at one
side with the hair rolled softly back
from the face is most in vogue.
In London and Paris the fashion
able women are rolling their hair
severely close at the sides of the head,
forehead, the hair then being twisted
into high coil at the back OF the
head, giving very high and narrow
! effect that is ultra smart, but not be-
coming to the average girl or woman.
Another popular fashion abroad, IS
TO draw the hair close at the sides
and into a high, wavy pompadour,
tuclling the ends in about a small rat

the temples high onto the head.
This tends to greatly increase the
height. but is not at all becoming to
the woman whose face is inclined to
be long or thin since its severity is
very trying.
They Seem Severe.
Most Of the new modes, however,
seem severe after long seasons of
fuzzy hair down over the ears, and
floating curls about the face, but
Dame Fashion has dccreed that her
devotees must wear ears" this year,
and what is more, must show the
shape of their heads and display their
own hair, with as little waving and
elaborate dressing as possible.
The demand for this natural Golf
fure" has brought about an equally
big demand for the permanent waves
now being done by the hairdressers.
These are quite harmless, it is said,
if properly done, and the hair then
stays waved for years, having a nat
ural curl to it that is in truth a boon
to the STRAIGHTFORWARD. This sort of
curly wave is far better suited to the
new couture than the sitter marcel

There are very few hair ornaments
worn nowadays, with the exception of
jeweled pins, or Z very narrow ban

or less prohibits any sort of decora-
tion though it is probable that with
the coming of the theatre and opera
seasons the little aigrettes and jewel
ed ornaments will come to the fore
again.

MRS. CARMAN ON
TRIAL FOR MURDER
REMAINS CALM
Accused Wife of New York Phy-
SiCian Defiantly Meets StareS
of Curious Crowd in Court
Room as Case Opens.

MINEOLA, y. Y. Oct. 19.-Pale
but calm. Mrs. Florence c. Carman
came into court today to stand trial
for the murder of Mrs. Louise d.
Bailey, who was shot TO death in the
Office Of Mrs. Carmans husband, DR..
Edwin Carman, on the evening of
June 80 last
one hundred and fifty talesmen,
from whom the u jurors were 10 be
selected, filed into the court room and
presented themselves TO Justice
Charles II. kelby
it was hoped by Dist. Atty. Lewis
]. Smith and by counsel for the de-
fense that the work of selecting a jury
would not take more than two days.
A big crowd struggled for entrance
into the little court room, but Justice
Kelby had previously given notice that
the trial chamber should not be over
crowded. consequently many men and
women were turned away. A whole
army of men and women newspaper
writer's chiefly from New York city,
descended upon Mineola over the
week end and were on hand with a
battery of camera men.
Dist. Atty. Smith expressed conf
dence that the state would be able to
build up a case against the famous
prisoner. On the other hand. counsel
for Mrs. Carman gave assurance to
the prisoners husband, DR.. Edwin
Carman, that he had no cause to
worry over the outcome.
Meets Stares Defiantly.
1t was a few minutes before ID
o'clock when Mrs. Carman entered the
court room from an underground pas
sage through which she had been led
to avoid the crowds. The prisoner
glanced hurriedly around the crowded
room, defiantly meeting the stares of
friends and neighbOrs among the
spectators. Then she sat down at the
counsel table and entered into a con-
ference with her counsel, John J.
Graham, surrogate of Nassau county.
and George NJ. Levy of Freport, to-
gether with her husband.
Meanwhile a crowd of fashionably
dressed women was rolling up in auto
mobiles and pleading with the door
keeper to admit them, but only about
a half dozen were lucky enough to get
in.
The preliminaries incidental to the
opening of court were rushed through
in haste and the calling Of talesmen
was soon commenced. The first juror
chosen was Robert Ludlum of Oyster
Bay, who was sworn in as foreman.
He was the second taIesman exam
ined.
Masters Herself.
Despite her palenesS Mrs. Carman
seemed to be complete master Of her
self When she picked up a paper to
glance at it her hand was steady. She
was dressed in a new tailor made
gown, the dark mat Of which set off
the pallor of her face.
Alois Angler, barber, was accepted
as Juror number two.
The third juror chosen was Frank
u. Mount, a builder.

This has been the longest and

The legislation put through has been
important and i'm compliance with
progressive democratic promises and
il has had To fight its way, inch by
inch, to success. IL revised the tariff
downward; il passed a currency law
TO make money easier and banks
safer; it passed an income tax; il in
vestigated and exposed trust abuses
detrimental To trade and stopped IL
by legislation: IL made il possible TO
elect United States senators by direct
vote and cuFtaiIed the danger OF
campaign doodle; and it passed many
more similar, great pieces OF leg1sla-
ton which all required time because
of stubborn opposition.
In the midst OF this work for better
things for the people, the Mexican war
threatened TO involve Us and then
came the unexpected and awful Eu-
rOpean war with its dangers and COM
plicatiOnS and its sudden paralysis OF
our imports and revenues therefrOm.
All this caused delay i'm the work OF
