TAFFETA IS MUCH WORN
Summer Silks and Tafeta
Make an Attractive Com
binatlon

NV/HiTE taffeta makes some Of
" the smartest and prettiest Of
midsummer costumes. The
second illustration is essentially cool
and summerlike in effect and it is
thoroughly satisfactory to wear. The
latest fancy is for trimming of lace
and this costume is a most excellent
one. The little coat is simple and
easy to make and takes the most
fashionable lines. The gown is made
with a two-piece skirt and a blouse
with V-shaped neck and three-quarter
sleeves. All the newest features are
included and the costume is an ex-
ceedingly practical as we'll as hand
some one since it is available for many
occasions, although, as a matter of
course, it could be copied in almost
any summer fabric. Colored taffeta
could be trimmed with white and
frills of the same could be used instead
of the lace. The entire gown could be
made of organdie and the coat OF
tafeta to be charming, and lowered
organdie with coat of taffeta to match
one of the colors in the design would
make most picturesque as we'll as
most fashionable costume; or the coat
could be made of white or any color
to be worn over any white or har-
rnonizing gown, for there are many
possibilities in such a design as this
one

THIS season summer silks are
shown in the most attractive
and interesting variety. The
one shown on the third figure is tafeta
in MORE effect and is thin and light
enough for any June day. The color
is the new blue known as Pompadour
and the girdle shows white flowers on
a blue ground while the chemisette is
of white organdie. The gown is one OF
the thoroughly useful sort available
for many occasions and always in
readiness. 1t gives the smartest and
latest lines and it can be made 50
easily and SO readily that any woman
planning her summer wardrobe will do

one-piece skirt are Tapped at the front
and draped to give the broad hip effect
and, if liked. ruf1es can be added to
intensity the breadth. The blouse is
all in one piece too except that the
sleeves are joined to it below the
shoulder line. In another view, the

it is one of the features of the design
that it is just as good for one material
as for the other: in fact, it can be made
available for almost any seasonable
material. As shown here, it IS adapted
to general use but, by arranging
casing over the waist line and adjusting
the fullness by means Of ribbon, in
place of stitching into place, it can be
converted to maternity wear.

occasions, it is always smart and it is
always handsome. The checked linen
eponge is durable and handsome and
the lines of the gown are exceedingly
smart yet both the blouse and the
skirt are simple. The blouse Is made
in the japanese style with seam at
the center back and one under each
arm and the skirt is cut in two pieces.

settle, the Normandie collar and the
cuffs are all of the organdie finished
with hem-stitching. 1afeta in some
useful shade would be both handsome
and practical made in this way or plain
linen could be used in place of the
eponge or a stripe in place of the check
but fancy material. either striped or
checked, gives an especially good effect
for the reason that, in taking up the
tuck, the lower edge becomes bias, SO
giving the effect illustrated.
A HANDSOME model and one

narrow skirt. a long wrinkled basque

the front and closed with buttons and
button-holes. To this basque is
attached full gathered tunic which
is open for a generous width at the
front and over the lower edge Of the
basque is draped sash Of the material
knotted in the once-over style at the
front and falling we'll down at the sides
while its edges are embroidered in
white and gold.

smart and attractive, it also offers
very interesting suggestions to the
practical woman. To be fashionable,

WAR INCIDENT.
Left Wife And Babe for Front
Among the Missing.

About 20 years ago young Ger
man who had invented a valuable pro-
cess for the manufacture of certain
chemicals came to this country to be
nearer his chief markets. Business
prospered, the money flowed in, and
the young German chose a wife from
the people of his fosterland.
Last July he took his wife across
the ocean on vacation trip, and
chiefly so that their first child might
lie born in fatherland. He expected
to be back in America by now with
his wife and new baby, but the iron
finger of war reached out and tapped
him on the shoulder. Within a
few days after the child was born, the
Government military emissary stop
ned at the G0mans door and notified
him that his services were required in
the armies of the Kaiser. There
was no escape. He had neglected
10 take out American naturalization
papers.
His wife has not heard from her
husband since the day she kissed him
in a heartbroken farewell. For al,
she knows ne lies six feet deep in the
hastily dug trenches before Liege or
stark on the plains of Charleroi. The
business which he built up in this
country with such cheerful pains is
rapidly going to ruin in the hands of

A GLOOMY
PICTURE.

Il 1S1 ~
Writing in the New York
American &c. Forbes says:
!. The war will cost the
world not s50,00O,O00 a day
but, upward, Of, 100000.
The s50,O0O,00o may
cover the strictly military
expenditures; but a far ar
heavier toll is levied upon
international and national
trade. The heaviest toll OF
all, Of course, is upon man
hood and parenthood of this
generation and the unborn
and to-be-born posterity.
The wars burden is fall
ing upon every country, IN
Guiding our own, notwlth,
standing that America and
Americans are in a posi-
ton to seize advantage OF
certain commercial and
financial opportunities
thrust upon us.
What pass had the armed
to-the-teeth peace Of Eu-
rope come to before the in
evitable upheaval occurred?
The principal powers OF the
Old World were spending
$2,O00,000,000 a year on
ornaments.
This is more than the to-
tai capital that can be rails
ed both at home and abroad
for the development of the
United States. It is twice
Americas whole outstand-
ing national debt. 1t is
double the national annual
income. It is more than
four times the total amount
of gold produced through
out the world in a year.
Europe, in a word. was
careering madly toward
general bankruptcy.
That being the condition
before the war, what will a
prolonged holocaust entail?
Every dollars worth of
German foreign trade has
been annihilated, and if the
war continues until the end
of this year the German do
mestic situation from every
point of view will be too
cruel and shocking to con-
template.
France. too. is already in
pitiable plight, with thou
sands upon thousands Of her
people ruined and homeless,
with her important foreign
trade laid PROSTATE, with
her financial machinery
chaotic, and her govern
ment in flight.
Poor, guiltless Belgium
has been laid waste and Ii
terally drenched with the
blood Of her sons, to say
nothing of daughters and
children.
Great Britain, too, is un-
dergoing acute financial
strain and an industrial de-
preston that all efforts to
capture Germany's oversee
markets will not compen-
safe for or relieve. AS for
ourselves, has not a first
war tax" of $100,00O,OOO
been announced already?
But that does not begin
to convey any idea of the
total cost of the cataclysm
or what it will impose upon
this country.

SMITH DECLARES
He HAS EVIDENCE
Deputy Attorney General Will
Turn Ksllett Information Over
to District Attorney.
(Trom Monday Adyertiser.l

That he had collected and still re-
tanned in his possession evidence against
John r. Kellett, sergeant OF detectives,
tending to connect the police officer
with doubtful relations with women OF
Dose character, was admitted last night
by Deputy Attorney General Arthur G.
Smith.
Though he declined to outline the
nature of the evidence, Attorney Smith
stated that il was such that further
action would como under the iurisdic-
ton Of the United States district at
corney Is otiice.
ASKED if he would turn the informa-
lion in his possession over TO the dis
sriet attorney, Attorney Smith said he
would willingly do so if it was request
ed by that Office,
Attorney Smith stated that the evil
denee was new, had not been presented
at Kellett's recent hearing before the
civil service commission because of a
ruling of the commission and that he
had never turned the information over
TO City Attorney Cathcart or made its
nature known TO the latter official,
Though Attorney smith remains
silent as to the information in his
hands, IL is known to others aud is said
by them that among the documents are
statements of two women of doubtful
character who tell of alleged unlawful
relations with the police official. The
names Of the women are withheld.
Attorney MeCarn when asked last
night regarding the evidence held by
Attorney Smith, stated that as soon
AS affairs Of his Office will permit he
will confer with Attorney Smith, pro-
cure such evidence as tho latter holds
and that If the evidence warrants he
will proceed with an action against
Kellett. .s
g Yes, / have evidence in my posses
sion regarding Kellett, said Attorney
Smith IN discussing the incident. ~
cannot tell you just what il is but
may say that il is of such nature that
action ON il should come from the Uni
ted States district attorneys Office.
There is no reason why Attorney Me-
earn should not have the information
/ possess and will turn IL over to him
III he requests it. i may add that even
more information could be procured
against Kellett but | haven I had the
time to go out and get 1t. City At.
