THE new feature in neckwear is the
Medici collar, which is supported
by small wires or tiny bones. Rufus
and demi-collars are all made to stand
up in the most sprightly fashion,
which is a quite decided change from
the slimpsy, falling-down effects
which have prevailed during the past
year.
Besides the wired collars and ruffs
there are many net undersleeves
They extend from the elbow to the
wrist with ruffles hanging over the
hands. These rufFles are either of the
net or of fine lace and are rather full.
When made Of net, fine side plaits are
preferred to plain rufiles Also in
choosing nets fine quality is the
only satisfactory selection, because 1t
stands the necessary washing without
being harmed
The Medici collar is worn with turn
down and sailor collars or without
them. II is combined with fichu ends
also. as shown in the illustration given
here. These fichu ends are usually
made of net and trimmed with lace
insertions and edges. but the flmy

trnck has been an upbuilding
force in the Methodist church
here and his many friends, both
outside and inside his congrega-
ton, are sorry to lose him. We
congratulate the people of Punta
Gorda.
The gratifying fact appears that
our cigar manufacturing business
is not tn 90 out of existence on ac-
count of the recent burning of the
Punta Gorda Cigar Co., factory.
Onthe contrary, we are now to
have two factories instead of one.
Besides the one opened up by A.
Symonette in the Masonic build
ing, three of our enterprising
young men have organized a stock
company with capital of $4,000
to engage in cigar making. They
are: Henry G. Ainsworth, w. K.
Reid and George O. Dewey, who
give notice in this paper of their
application for II charter. Every
citizen who wishes to see the town
prosper should give all possible
encouragement to these Young
gentlemen, rs we'll as to Mr..
Symonette, and boost their bust
ness both at home and abroad.
Such enterprises as these are OF
inestimable value to the town.
