Remember, It's a Poor
Sport Who Throws a
Bottle at the Umpire.

Bottle at the Umpire.
The self-condemning enemies Of Billy
Sunday are already on the job in Detroit.
The Sunday vanguard is here, but the
Devils beat il into town.
Literature is appearing which attacks
the evangelist for his methods, the same
as it has appeared in every city Sunday
has visited but in no place has It hinder
cd or affected the great objective in any
way.
Sunday, himself, was at one time, as
most everybody knows, a base ball player
He was second baseman in the big
league for many years. and the way ne
looks upon these attacks, if he notices
them at all, is probably to recognize that
the advantage is all on his side for coming
to bat last.
He can say to himself, simply, if the
other fellows are doing any scoring.
'sWe'll be in there ourselves shortly, doing
some hitting on our own account, and
we are beginning already 10 feel sorry
for the opposition pitcher.
BILLY" will be found more than a
match for the fellows underhanded de-
livery.
The bat he carries is one that he can
swing straight from the shoulder.
This bat is Truth and with il Billy
has never failed to land on his enemies
and put them over the fence.
This in behalf of the brother waiting
on third for safe arrival Home.
BILLY" Sunday realizes that when you
are playing against the Devil you are ION
the road" or in what every ball player
knows to be unfriendly territory.
He has heard the ieers Of the bleachers
until he became hardened to them TO an
extent that he could play the game with
out letting them bother him.
But the world is as full of good sports
as the bleachers are, and those who 90
to see and hear Sunday with the idea Of
scoffing. will find themselves applauding
the brilliancy of the game he plays.
Sundays methods of reaching men and
bringing them under conviction Of sin. are
the methods, simply, of one who knows
that the base runner. who is in earnest,
comes into the base spikes first.
1t isn't the popular way with basemen
but II gets the base for the runner.
BILLY" Sunday has made himself
heartily disliked and decidedly unpopular
with lot of people.
In this fact lies his browning achieve
ment.
He hasn't been disposed To compromise
with those who hate him for the sake
of having them say nice things about
him.
His work isn't one that the Devil
cheers.
He is campaigning in behalf Of men
and women unreaehed by the Truth, 20
make them understand, and 10 MAKE
THEM UNDERSTAND, he talks to them
from the pulpit as a father would talk 70
his son-with the same interest, with
the same vigor and in understandable
phrases.
He is preaching religion in a way that
is sure-fre and will put il over.

shoes are by no means plain. We have
grown fond Of combinations Of leather,
of different colors and of novel effects
in our footgear. So, of course, we get
these things from the shoe manufac-
turers.
The bright colors, however, are no
longer used. Brown. tan, gray. black
and white are all much used, and they
are often strikingly combined. The
patent leather vamp of black is smartly
apJ lied to the gray or tan cloth top.
Heavy tan calfskin is used with a
washable tan kid top. and cloth tops of
gray and tan suede tops and buckskin
tops are all used with glazed kid
vamps.
There seems to be "a limit to rise in
prices in everything. And, according
to shoe Dealers the limit in shoe prices
has about been reached. They are
high now. to be sure, but they will
probably not go much higher. except
ing for buckskin and specially made
models.
AS for the evening slippers. brocade
Is to be the smartest material for
them. And it's characteristic mark of
smartness will be a silver thread run
ming through all its wealth of colors.
Plain silver slippers, too, without other
color, will be used. and both black and
white satin slipers will also be worn.

Posing for a Photograph.

MANY handsome women do not seem
1V4 to realize the artistic limitations
of photography. and especially do not
know how to dress for the part Of hav-
ing their pictures taken. For instance.
a hat should never be worn at an angle
that cuts off the line OF the brow. II
hat is worn at all, it should set back
enough to allow the hair to frame the
face beneath. but nothing but Gains
borough looks well this way. as a rule.
For the most artistic photograph hat
is not to be considered at all. neither is
a coat or wrap. The hair should be
rolled softly from the brow to get the
best effect. For a young girl low
neck and short sleeve waist of soft
white silk simply trimmed with lace
gives a good effect.
Silk net over silk makes a soft. inde-
fina BILE line where the neck and round
ed-out gown meet. Not jewel nor
even a string of pearls should mar the
perfect simplicity and exquisite girlish
grace of such q gown. Such a photo
graph will be the same in point of ar
tistic perfection years hence, for the
round evening waist is always in FASH
ion and always artistic, while the
change in coiffure will only make the
picture quantity interesting because.
as it is the simplest, it cannot appear
in bad taste. II you wish to see what

winter.
Perhaps this recurrence of by
gone fashion Is due to our recurrent
waist lines. For so long we have had
no waist lines that we must now do
something to celebrate their reappear-
ance. even If that something is the
wearing of belt. So belts we wear.
and now when we pack our week end
suitcases we shall be forced to look
for one more accessory to go with our
coats, frocks and suits.
There are many interesting leather
belts of various styles and eolors.

Holiday NeedIework.

M Ow is the time to begin to work on
~ Christmas articles, or at least get
in touch with new ideas for fancy
work. For instance, it is very evident
that cross stitching is to be much used,
as it is even seen as trimming for
smart suits. It is sometimes done on
coarse net and used as bands on even
ing gowns. On narrow yokes in one
piece frocks and Russian blouse suits of
thin fabrics cross-stitching is used in
two contrasting colors. Silk belts for
coat suits are entirely covered with
cross-stitch embroidery. band of wool
cross stitching on black satin or vel
vet hat serves as the only trimming.
and is decidedly artistic. Net blouses
are elaborately trimmed with cross
stitching, and even cape collars OF Or

doilies of a large single oak or maple
leaf would be handsome worked In nat
ural colors. accompanied by large
over or square centerpiece to match,
all worked in satin or stem stitches.
Fancy silk patchwork pieces in ap-
plique form are used on black or col
ored silk pillows and couch covers
Shelf covers for the kitchen are made
of white muslin edged with scallops
worked in delft blue cotton Bags for
the ice box and pantry and tea towels
are all dafntily embroidered and make
attractive and inexpensive gifts. A
bedroom set consists of pillow, work.
bag, scarf and round table cover of
mercerized tan or white damask. Cor

are stamped for lettering only on
corner design.
Three Inch tatted edgings are often
seen on linen table covers. When done
with fine thread the effect Is very

white linen are worked in garden
scenes, with flowers. fountains. lawn.
trees, etc. A hot-roll cover of white
linen in circular shape is embroidered
with delft blue mercerized cotton, fin
ished with a blue crocheted edging. For
platter of hot corn there Is a cover
of white linen worked in the natural
yellow and green colors of two ears
of corn. finished with crocheted edge.
A new idea is black satin cloth, en-
broidered in floral and oriental designs
in gay colors for pillows fire and floor
screens Cut-out cretonne designs are
appliuued on tan linen or cotton and
outlined with colored braids for pillows
and table scarfs. Knitted or crocheted
handbags of silk are quickly made.
Some have a ribbon draw string. others
a gate top, lined in matching silk.
From early days comes the crewel rose,
made of coarse worsteds and applied
as a trimming on a hat as a corsage
bouquet and SO on.

Metal Lace Trimming.

q liver on white net lights up better
~ than gold on white for evening
wear. Gold and white looks better on
day gown. Metal lace Is used for an
entire gown, or is combined with net,
crepe, chiffon, silk. silk wolfe. velvet.
etc. Colored silk nets have silver de-
signs. Black net with gold threads Is
very attractive. Nets in glowing rose,
shrimp pink, reseda green. French
blue and other dainty tones are fur-
ther beautif1ed by metal threads. Dark
colored nets with dull metal are MADE
up as afternoon gowns. as net, IKE
chiffon, Is worn at all hours
Metallic nets are both beaded and
embroidered. Pastel shade effects in
metal nets, combined with ribbon,
form some of the prettiest dancing
frocks Lace designs are sometimes
merely outlined with metal thread;
Bandings of metalixed net embroidered
in net are seen on net and silk gowns.
Cotton threads to initiate metals are
treated to initiate them perfectly,
though not as brilliant.

The evening skirt which reaches to
the ankles and which has stable

from this other fashion, and the bets
are that it will win out before the new
year.
Some exceedingly smart women wore
detached trains of brocade and of bull
lion embroidered satin as early as last
March, and at a few exclusive affairs
one had the opportunity of seeing how
women Of fashion could manage these
trains while doing the newest dances.

FOOTWEAR OF THE SEASON

high heels for dress will be usual, the
new heel, which Is only a little over
an inch high. is used on many street
shoes. 1t is an admirable heel for
walking and. doubtless, we have the
rage for sports clothes to thank for its
appearance. 1t is used on shoes dainti-
ly cut, that now 1t is no longer
necessary to wear a rough, huge boot If
we would get low, straight heel. Just
as sweaters are now made of silk and
sports frocks of chiffon. SO straight,
low heels are put on boots with dainty
toes and ankles.
AS for the high heels. the incurved
Louise heel, to which we have become
SO accustomed, is used on all evening
shoes and slippers and on many for
afternoon. But there is also a high
Cuban heel on dress boots and shoes.
So those who roamed the shoe shops
disconsolately last winter looking for
sensible heel will not be disappoint-
ed this year. The straight, high Cuban
and the low. straight sport heel will
both satisfy them.
Although the highly elaborate shoe
of last year has died a deserved death,

rHHE shops are we'll supplied with
II autumn footwear and. on the
whole, il is a most satisfactory
sort of stock that is shown. 1t is not
very much different from that of last
year. The better sort of shoe dealer is
not showing freakish models and there
are few of the eccentricities, such as
back lacings and openwork over the in
step, that marked some of last winters
footwear. on the whole, though, those
oddities did not find favor with the
better dressed woman. For her there
Is not much change in the footwear
outlook.
High boots. between seven and eight
inches high. and about the same in
height as those of last year, will be
used for street wear. although pumps

for skating and other sports laced
boots will be the rule

W embroidery. hemstitching, pearl
buttons and ribbon trimming compose
the new neckwear. The V-neck. jabot
with fchu. high back, cape effect,

Ing features.
Some collars are accompanied by deep
cuffs, but the most prominent piece Of
neckwear is the Jabot fastened with n
long bar pin. The leading laces for
neckwear are val. filet. shadow and
mechlin Accordion pleated frills of
crepe or net finish many fichu shapes.
Cape collars reach to the shoulders or

are all great favorites among the new
neckwear.
