The Countess of Coset


 The Countess of Coset was one of the numerous mistresses of Augustus H., King of Poland and Saxony. She was the wife of the Saxon minister, Hoymb, who, knowing the kings dis position, kept her far from court. On one occasion, however, when he was excited by wine, he praised her so highly to the king that Augustus or dered her to be brought to Dresden. It was not long before she was di- vorced from Hoymb, and appeared at court as the Countess of Coset. A pal ace was built fori her by the king, which is still in existence, and still retains it's name of Coseln Palace. It was famed far and wide for it's mag nificence and luxury. For nine years the Countess preserved the kings fa- vor and exercised an arbitrary sway in the affairs of government. The money coined while she was in favor bore the stamp of the royal arms in con- Junction of those of the countess. At last she fell into disgrace and was d1s- missed. She retired to Prussia, and was afterward arrested at Halle, at the request of Augustus and irnprison- ed at Stolpe, in Saxony. She remain ed in prison forty-five years and died in her cell at the age of eighty.

OUT GOES THE. SWACCER
 STICK

< It has always been hard to live up to swagger sticks. There is nothing that shows up dowdiness even in mi croscopic amounts or that puts per sons get-up to a severer test than a swagger stick. To carry a swagger stick well, you must really be swag- ger-but why carry a swagger stick if they are out of favor in the army? The commanders of several of the camps have already prohibited their use, and those of us who dislike anything that tends to foppishness in thei soldiers getup are rather glad that the little swagger stick is doomed. Somehow there never was anything congenial be- tween a big, strapping all-wool-and-a yard-wide American and a swagger stick, anyway, and If the soldier does not carry them any more, then the girl who did carry one to show her enthus- iasm for all things military will soon discard hers also.

Have you seen "The New Model' at the Plaza yet? If scd haven't you had better get there early tonight or you'll be one of the many hundreds that are being turned away at every performance. The act is not what you might call musical conedietta although there are several song num- bcrs in 1t. It is more of a novelty of fering with comedy as the doninat- ing factor. The scene is laid in a fashion establishment with several strikingly pretty young women acting as models for gowns. corsets and lin- gerie.
 Roach and Mccurdy. a couple of ''rube'' character comedians, are one of the brightest spots on the bill They are past masters in the art of laugh creating and they have some thoroughly original repartee that goes we'll with the laugh seekers

If there is a combination with more novel features than this attractive suit and hat, it has not as yet found its way before the public eye. Almost every finishing touch on the suit brings some new point of beauty into play. The features are multitudinous, and none of them is freakish. The collar of fur that hugs the chin and extends high pp in the back is new mode that is bound to please the best dress CTS The sleeve that blossoms into it's fullnesR past the elbow with fur creep- ing around the edge, and the belt are other noteworthy style advanced. The suit is made of brown chiffon velvet and the artistic designs of blue and gold embroidery are the final touches of exquisite charm. The hat with its broad wings lifts the entire combfna- ton into the realms of ultra style. The fur on the crown makes for piquant beauty.
