NECKWEAR OF THE MOMENT
Styles Are as Pretty as Those of the
Summer, Though Materials
Are Different.

Just as last summer the lovely
touch of white neckwear was organdie
and lawn, so now it is Of cream net
and lace in the finer costumes, and of
pique in those dresses that smack Of
the tailormade.
There is less wiring CT the collars
to make them stand up, as the necks
are higher as far as decollete is con-
cerned; they can, however, be lightly
wired if they are more becoming.
Fine venise, applique and point laces
are noted in the collars of the. new
dress models, and there is always
enough net added to the neck decora-
ton to Keep the lace from looking too
hard against the skin.
Some Of the lace guimpes are Of
embroidered net of the applique type
OF lace, and they finish at the top
with a round neck that does not come
quite up to the base Of the throat.

farmers in the LOngmont section this
year.

with the advent OF the silos for cat

perimented last year with small

The two crops were planted on the
same ground neither interfering with

crop proved to be equal to that raised

to the feeders from $50 TO $40 per

Where Mccall Started First.
(From the Boston Herald.)

(From the Boston Herald.)
When Bryan made his celebrated
speech in 1896, concluding with the
cross of gold and crown of thorns'
the passage which gave him the pres
idential nomination, it turned out that
this was but a slight modification of
words which our own Samuel w. Nc
Call had used in a less conspicuous
speech. Thus our man showed him
self a phrase-making pioneer.
1t now transpires that the bill for
the improvement of Stun conditions
in Washington. passed by Congress on
the last day of Mrs. Wilson's life, in
recognition of her deep concern over
existing conditions. was originally in
troduced and for a long time actively
pushed by Mr.. Mccall when a repre-
sentative from Massachusetts,. This
incidentally shows that he is not so
bereft of progressive impulses as the
third party men are now trying to
make out.
