skirt from the narrow and almost
skin tight garment Of the past sea-
son! Instead of mincing along
Fifth avenue in short stilted steps,
cXperding great deal Of unneces-
sary energy, we can now stride
along with free and easy gait and
enjoy the movements Of our limbs
unhampered In the theatre, the
restaurant, the ballroom, we can
move with easy grace. whether we
have beautifully moulded form or
an Indifferent one, it matters not
with the billowy hoops, and clouds
OF tulle, and stately brocades.
And the bodices! what relief
from the loose uncorseted figure;
and what a blessing that this par
ticularly un-beautiful mode was so
short lived. l hate to think what
would have become Of "Woman's
form divine" if this mode had last
ed; suffice it to say that outlines
would no longer be necessary and
the word Fashion" would prob
ably become extinct. But let us
not dwell on such horrible eX-
igency. The new little tight bodice
shall repair the wrong that has
been done, and the waist line shall
come into its own again.
And while we are on the sub
ject, I want to call your attention
to this delightfully."- quaint outline
which / have introduced this sea-
son. If you are at all interested in
fashion periods, you will see that
this outline prevailed from 1880 to
1910, modified Of course from
year to year, which amply proves
its popularity.
The sloping shoulder, too, is
quite a departure from the ex-
tremely low cut decolletage. which
has been en- vogue for so long, and
to say that this is refreshing, is
putting 1t mildly; for who will not
agree that modest display of
rounded shoulders Is more inviting
to the eye than bare back down
to the waist line.
For those who do not happen to
be fortunate enough to possess the
necessary rounded shoulders,
have introduced n little sflirred I'M
derbodice Of flesh colored net or
chiffon which will produce the
same effect, while it will not dis
play to the naked eye any pro.
truding bones or unsightly hollows.
Apropos Of the short flaring skirt
again our enterprising American
manufacturers, with characteristic
forethought, have provided the
necessary complement Boots and
shoes have never been shown in
such a variety of color and design,
and a very good thing it Is, for
what woman, In these days of

A ND now the season is in full
~ swing: no more doubts as to
what fabrics will be en-
ployed. what colors will be used, or
what outline will be followed. In
short, there are no more doubts
what the vogue will be for the
coming Winter.
Those who have been waiting for
something different. something
newer" need wait no longer, for
that question has now been def
nitely decided and settled. and with
the wonderful array OF fabrics,
oolors and styles, we should have
one of the most brilliant eras in
the history of fashion.
There are outlines and colors to
suit every type; the tall and
stately, the petite and piquant. the
blonde. the brunette, and even the
every day type will find a fashion
that will bring out her good points.
And indeed the season" this
year, in so far as fashion is con
cerned, must be a brilliant one.
With the sadness on the other side
Americans are naturally loathe to
leave their own shores, except in
cases of extreme necessity. and our
beautiful women who have helped
to make the London and Paris sea-
sons noteworthy for their brill
liancy, will this Winter lend their
radiance at home. And our manu-
facturers, with true American
forethought have prepared for it.
Never have | seen such wonder
full silks, laces, chiifons, and
brocades as the looms have turned
out this season; cobwebby laces
with gold and silver threads run
ming through them, brocades with
gold and silver flowers interwoven,
and the colors! as if nature her
self had woven them from rain
bows, sunsets; Spring and Autumn
tints.
Furs, too, despite the curtailed
supply from abroad, were never so
gorgeous in richness and variety.
The woman Of limited as well as
unlimited means can indulge in
this beauty enhancing accessory
to her hearts content, for who
can gainsay that a touch CT fur at
the neck, sleeves. or any other part
OF the dress, does not enhance the
charm Of costume, be it morn
ing, afternoon or evening attire. So
appreciative are we Of this charm,
that "Furs in Summer" has become
quite the vogue. This, however, is
an exaggeration which cannot last,
for after all, even fashions are
sifted down to the practical.
And speaking of the practical,

Mrs. W. w. Mathewson died at her home on Woodstock Hill Saturday morning, July 3lst, after a week s ill- ness. Since Harriet Warner came to Woodstock about fifty-seven years ago as bride of William w. Mathewson her home has been in this town. The death of her husband in 1901 left her with the care of Lakeside which after time proved too great a burden and she purchased home on Woodstock Hill. Though Mrs IMaihewson had passed the age of three score years and ten her active temperament kept her on the alert and she remained young in thought and feeling. She was specially interested in the social life of the community and will be missed by a large circle of friends. The funeral was held at her home Monday after. noon and the services were conducted by Rev. F. B Harrison, pastor of the church of which she was member. The bearers were E.. R. Hall, H. T. Child, C. w. Bowen, e. II. Sumner, George Mcclellan and Henry Wells and the body was laid to rest in the family lot at the Woodstock Hill cem- etery. A pTofusion of flowers brought their messages of sy mpathy for the liv- ing and esteem for the dead. A son, Albert Mcclellan Mathewson, a daughter, Mrs. John Haskell, with three grandchildren mourn their loss.
 MT. and Mrs. Mathewson, MT. and Mrs. Haskell and daughter left on Fri day for the White mountains where they expect to remain till the middle of September.
 In spite of the heat a goodly num- Der gathered at Academy hall SaIur- day evening to help the Good Cheer club raise the money to buy a pull motor for the Day Kimball hospital.

Five young girls attraetively dressed to rep resent different flowers sold candy, dolls and fancy articles. By the genial persuasion of Herbert Bowen enough money was raised to purchase the pull motor and leave the club a nice sum to use in dispensing good cheer at Christ mas.

with a reserve of 1000 miles more. Twenty submarines could protect Chesapeake bay"
 What the Mi Is.
 The MI is the first American sub ularine to answer a demand for large undersea craft with a surface speed sufficiently high to enable them to op- crate in conjunction with a battleship fleet. She Is 1855 feet long over all and is expected to develop a surface speed of 16 knots. She carries four topedo tubes and one three-inch gun, which is mounted on the forward deck. She is equipped with a new type of heavy oil engine, which is expected to give her a cruising radius of 2,500 | miles. It will be easy to double thii; steaning distance because of the plen- tiful distribution of bases of supply. She puts in other positive claims to | distinction in the form of her hull | and in having three periscopes. Her | hull is so curved as to render it ex- | tremely difficult for a vessel ramming her to strike other than a glancing | blow.
 According to Henry R. Sutphen, vice | president of the Electric Boat con- l pany, the Mi is the first submarine to be equipped with an engine entirely 1 developed in America The engine op- crates on the Diesel cycle, but has many important improvements over similar engines installed in European submarines. All the submarines built for the United States government by | the Electric Boat company since the D class have had Diesel engines but they have been modification of en- zines of European design and substan- ] tially duplicate of the German type. l The developments and improvements l in the motors are the work largely oi l Gregory c. Davidson, who for many
 years has experimented with the type | of Diesel engine manufactured by the New London Ship & Engine Co.,, g l branch of the Electric Boat company This type is known as the Uurembure
 Diesel motor.
 In the engine with which the M-1 is equippedthe Electric Boat company
 officers believe MT. Davidson has solved
 the problem presented by the demand for a lighter motor turning at a rela.
 lively greater number of revolution.
 a minute. At the same time possibl, difficulties arising from the lightnes
 and consequent fraility of the moto
 have been overcome by the transfer O dead weight in the form of ballast | which increases the engines stability
 The motors in the MI turn at a rat, l of about 300 revolutions a minute.
