New York. Dec 3O.-The Horse
Show has been the attraction for {
week in New York. The horse.
grOomed until they shone and in >th,
pink of training came first of cours,
in the minds Of the people, but the
clothes worn by the women came 4
close second
Designers from all over New YorI
assembled there to note what the So
ciety women favored for the event Of
the early winter, and to temper their
new designs accordingly.
The boxes were filled with crowd
of people dividing their attention be-
tween the horses and the clothes worn
by other women. With fewer Partisan
styles the trend of fashion is a ques-
tion much more interesting to the
greater number of people that il has
ever been.
The suits which were the most
prominent were those made with a
coat having long and ripping tunic.
These were usually worn with the full
Ter skirts which rippled out beneath
them. On all were deep bands of
something, fur usually, and braid
sometimes, to border the bottom OF
the tunic and skirt. This fur was Of
ten skunk, sometimes fitch, kolinsky
or sable, but the most popular was
beaver
A sand-colored broadcloth suit,
made with a coat close fitting at the
shoulders and fiaring out at the knees,
had skirt with a band of beaver
around it at least fifteen inches wide
and possibly as wide as eighteen in
ches.
The fuller skirts were in evidence,
showing that there is no doubt about
the revival of the straight full skirts
of crinoline days, and among the coats
was one which reminded me of the
dolmans.
A semi-fitted effect is to be seen in
dresses that is a distinct reminder OF
the princess dress. The illustration
developed in sand colored broadcloth,
far from being a princess |
shows a combined yoke and girdle |
which fits around the a.st and Hips I
in princess manner. The dress ia |
made without trimming, the only var

ION sleeves and the flaring collar Of
chiffon The skirt flares out in the
&c cepted fashion at the ankles, show
ng the new breadth skirts are taking

lnder the arms.
The second illustration shows q
lress made on lines more similar to
he princess. The dress is made OF
,lue charmeuse, with skirt and waist

Editor Peeved.

In this issue of the Spectator will be found the protest petition from the south end of the county. asking the county Judge not to grant liquor license in the south part of the county, If they are not granted in Lake Village No petition has been circulated in Lake Nil- lage and saloon people say they will make no attempt to secure petition. In this issue will also be found the names of the sgners of the Grand Lake petition, which is being printed in q Dermott paper. the petitioners sending 1t there, so people living in Grand Lake and the south part of the county would not see who had signed t The people opposed to license at Grand Lake are having the petition printed In the Spectator believing that everyone should know who signed for saloons and that license should not be granted in any community without that com nnnity knowing just who had asked that same be granted without the trouble of making Q trip to the county seat to see the records
 It Is against our wishes to engage in a controversy with any newspaper. but since reading the above paragraph which appeared in the last issue of the Lake Village Spectator We cannot re frain from saying that if the editor of The Spectator is honest in stating what he believes to be the reason for the people of Grand Lake having their petition published in The Dermott News, he is very badly mistaken The real reason for it's appearing in this paper was that those who have to pay the bill wished to avoid being held up for the e-.,A prices for which The Spectator has reputation.
 We are ready to admit that nobody reads The Dermott News (the thousand copies that we send out each week doubtless being subscribed for solely for the purpose of wrapping paper) and we can only wonder how the people of Grand Lake happened to know of its existence. Since the things appearing in these columns gain so little publicity, We feel no hesitancy in remarking that it seems to be the policy of The Spec tator to soak the dear people" for every cent it can get out of them
 It does not seem strange, when We consider that Dermott polls more votes than any other place in the county, that some small part of the legal print ing should come this way At least it would be more becoming the dignity of the Spectator man to conceal his peevishness at the loss of this small amount of patronage

/ Thine is n grief that wastes the heart,
Like mildew on a tulips dyes
When hope deferr'd but 10 depart
Loses his smiles, but keeps his signs.
! When a young man falls in love, he
ought to be sure that the girl is not
tickle as well as fair. How is he TO
gain this knowledge? There are a
score or so of trite and true rules
which he might follow, but one or two
would do. If she is a merry. happy-go-
lucky damsel, always eager to go
hther and thither, where he must
accompany her, and has liking for all
the new fads of the hour, he may be
certain that her own pleasure comes
first with her; that he is only neces-
sary as long as he can contribute to
her delights. Let misfortune come to
him, in the way of unexpectedly losing
his position, and he will find a sweet
heart of this kind will turn cold
shoulder to him. His companionship
will be irksome to her.
If she has dreams of wedding him,
she will not be anxious to be always
on the go with him to places where 1t
will cost money. She will study his
interest without letting him realize It,
If change of fortune comes to him he
will find her true. Though all of her
friends grow cool toward him and turn
their heads another way, she will COM
fort and cheer him, keep up his cour-
hi tn lnEp hp1Yt
his battle with the world. She will
prove her love by wedding him though
he is down and out. putting her shoul-
der to the wheel to earn support, in
factory or shop until his sky bright
ems and he secures another position.
Men shape their lives according to
the women they love.
He who loves unwisely must pay
for misplaced affection in heart-bitter
sorrow. No wonder kinfolks who love
a young man appear to be overanxious
to have him get the right kind of a
sweetheart. So much depends on it.
Divorce courts, in nine cases out OF
ten, show wives who were once hap
py, but flighty, sweethearts, who for
a trifiing cause rend their hearts
apart.
It is often a mans own fault, If his
heart is caught in a vain coquette's
trap. The young man who has his own
row to- hoe, earning his money by the
q If Ills brow, should sell q halt
upon his affections If he finds that the
girl he begins to care for is extrava-
giant, would have him spend his last
dime for her Feigning poverty is a
good test of some girls affections.

WAR RELIC
BY SELMA ELIZABETH HIGGINS

When Pietro Sanchez returned from
putting down the instruction in Mo-
diva, he brought to his home town OF
Pasta but one trophy OF the war
a large brass cannon.
Pietro was an honest, sturdy black
smith. He had fought just as he set
tires on the wagon wheels or shod a
hurse-his whole soul in the task. lie
had been the leader of the company
which drove the marauding gang OF
Rivolla, the bandit, out of the dis
trict. Who had a better right TO
adopt the great field piece as SOU
venir of those troublesome battle
days?
The blacksmith shop was located on
the topmost bluff overlooking the
broad Rio Brazos, commanding the
valley for miles. Just at its edge
Pietro had set the cannon.
ct is a memento, a monument and
a trade sign" said Pietro. There it
shall remain as a record, reminder
and sign manual of the trade of the

"But, neighbor," spoke a fear-mind-

of peace. Why remind of war;"

Pietro stubbornly. who can say

ing at his presumption in thinking
June could ever wish to be linked to
November. The pretty young thing
takes no heed of time; nor does it
cause her regret when one lover
drops off. She believes the loss of
one is the gaining of two and the
choice of half dozen. IA
AS the years rush onward, she
finds that five years have made quite
a difference in her life The men of
the younger set fight shy of her, cast
ing their eyes at young girls. The
man of thirty is no longer at her
beck and call. She has to invent
pretty devices to keep him at her
side. She no longer laughs or leases
him when she finds him in serious
mood, but encourages it.
Her eyes are opened to the fact,
at last as to why she is single Her
own levity has discouraged each and
every one. There is time for mirth;
there is a time also for earnesthess,
especially if the man who seems in
tent upon proposing is agreeable to
the girl, aye more-if there Turks in
her heart the thought that he Is a

six and twenty should not crush

chances of matrimony are narrowing
down to one man most likely. 1t
doesn't do the spinster much good
to look back and count the lovers
whom she has sent from her. While
it is true that there is always one
chance of matrimony for a woman,
no matter how old she may be, 1t is
we'll for her to recollect that love
and laughter belong to youth time.
The same mannerism would send an
older sutton from her. She would
blame herself forever after for the
last proposal she treated too lightly at
a moment when she should have been
