Mr. Williams Is In Doubt About the Violations, but Feels That 1t May Be Best to Make an Investigation.

Food commissioner for Arkansas, Hamp Williams, has received so many complaints of open violations of the food conservation rules, that he is about to decide to have an inspector or two sent into Hot Springs to make some observations of an official na- ture. Yesterday he had not been pack from Little Rock long before two or three reports were made to him 10 alleged violations of the rules
 "I get reports of violations of the rules in hotels. restaurants, boarding houses, homes. churches, and in fact everywhere.' said Mr Williams last night and was very much humil- iated to. hear them l had such ex- cellent support in the work from my home town for d while that was very proud of it. and made good re- ports to the government on the con- ditions here l am not certain yet that there are so many violations, but the reports have come to me, and l believe that it will be best to have food inspectors come in and look the situation over"
 The government has assigned a mum CT of inspectors for every state commissioner, and these inspectors are sent out to places where reports of violations of the rules come from They usually come in when they are not expected, and in fact leave with out making their identity known but they carry with them reports tb1, are to he filed with the food com missioner for action in the courts if the violations are of sufficient inn portance 10 justify such ton

 The strap had never worked very tight against the mans neck, and it must have been quite awhile that he had to hold his feet pulled up from the knee joint in order to prevent them supporting him and thus saving himself So low was he tied that at any time he could have merely sup ported himself on his feet, and he would have been free and had his limbs gotten numb. he couid Lave raised himself, with his hands.
 A farmer residing in the .icjnity remembered having seen the man about the public road Tuesday and that the man did not step ont Jf the way of his team, brt that he rather had to drive around him to heeo from running over nm. One other farmer saw the man in the vicinity of the hanging the same day, but did not pay any particular attention to him The man wore dark clothing, an oyerc lat a good flannel shirt, a black hat aud had large cap, such as men from the extreme north usually carry n his pocket

VARIED IS THE WAIST COAT
 SHOW

Among the amazing quantity of new gowns shown this month there are so many waistcoats that appear to be substitutes for blouses that no one can miss them. If one should happen to be overlooked, the mannequin who parades in the gown will throw back the slight coat and stick her hands into the slashed pockets of the waist coat, to draw the attention of the on- lockers.
 They are fashioned after the man ner of sleeveless sweaters, these new vests, and they are made in white panne velvet, tan colored jersey cloth, Bordeaux satin, apple green, vel veteen, leather colored suede and mid night blue corduroy. They are worn only with coats that can drop open in front. Many of them have little belts across the front, which look as though they belonged in the back. They are narrow, with merely a conventional mannish buckle to fasten the ends. They are single-breasted and some of them are cut to the neck and then flare upward above the chin in a col lar of their own fabric.
 Buff colored corduroy with flat gilt buttons is the kind of waistcoat that has been taken up with the colonial blue cloth suit, and when one adds to such a costume the new modified

ETIQUETTE

When visiting away from home a young lady should make, her own bed and take care of her own room, un- less there is more than one servant in the house.
 Mrs Green-It would not be in good taste for you to have bevelled O. gilt edges on your visiting cards. There should be nothing whatever on your card in the way of decoration. It should contain only your name, address and day at home" if you have one-all engraved in black on a plain white ground. Script, old Eng fish and block lettering are all cor rect. A married woman's card should be three and one-third by two and one-fourth inches in size. Ar unmarried woman's card is a trif1e smaller, being about three by two inches. A married woman uses he1 husbands full name, without initials as Mrs. Charles Davis Elliott" She may not use any title belonging tc her husband on her card. His title belongs exclusively to him, no mat ter how important it may be.

Diary of a Fashion Model
She Learns, How Different Sas hes Smarten l
By GRACE TEORNCLIFFE

porters would have to be postponed, changed my suit for my blue taffeta studio frock.
 Miss Westley had finished the pima fore frock, and I hurried downstairs with it.
 Miss Weldon's face beamed when she saw it.
 What darling dress! Pray that it will, fit me-" she said, following us back to the fitting room. I fastened the frock on her and Madame tied the sash.
 Now, see how you like it!" she ex- claimed, adjusting one of the pleats at the side.
 The frock suited Miss Weldon to perfection. There was only one fault to be found with it, the pleats needed to be pressed with a heavy iron so they would fall in straight lines and not spring out at the hem.-
 The bodice fitted softly with few gathers above the waistline. The long sleeves clung to the arms snugly, and were finished with a piping of the ma terial. The turned-down collar was extended to form revers.
 The side-pleated skirt was raped be- low the hips to prevent the lines from flaring.
 A loose panel hung from the shoul- ders at the back of the fr'ock. It was turned upon the outer edge to form deep hem. which was held in place with two pongee-covered buttons and bound buttonholes.
 The pinafore effect of the frocb was accentuated by sash of old blue and white striped silk, cut on the bias, which, after passing about the waist and through bound eyelets al the sides of the panels, was knotted at the back with long ends.
 Madame thought the frock looked very we'll on Miss Weldon, and let hel have it.
 "You can wear sashes of different colors with the frock, if you like" she suggested. "Pll have one of emerald green, another of bright red, and z third of burnt orange made and sen to you.
 Now please take off the frock SC that Claire can ask Miss Westley tc have the pleats pressed. I'll see tha it is delivered to you this evening""
 So I left as Miss Weldon was ex pressing her thanks to Madame in eX travagant phrases, and rushed up stairs to the workroom. told Mis-: Wesley that the frock had to be sem to Miss Weldon that night.
 "A dress isn't left here long. enough for one even to grow fond of it." sht lsaid, taking it over to the presser.

CLOTHES FABRICS MANY AND
 VARIED

This season the materials used .n the clothes for Palm Beach are many and varied, in spite of the fact that manufacturers are Hooverizing on wool. There is no restriction on cotton, linen, or silk, so there is still a great variety in these charming summery fabrics. The silhouette in these clothes for southern wear is straight and boX-like, rather than tight and the colors, particularly in the homespun and broadcIoth sports suits. of which one sees so many, are bright, with plain and rather dark 1 Things, says Vogue.
 Many suits are lined with navy blue and black. One particularly new and unusual mode is the two-color coat lining, navy blue is often used to line the coat, and wide band of bright red is used across the middle. The effect is very lovely and decidedly | unusual.
 There has been an undoubted re-
 turn of voiles, both printed and plain; | they are used in simple frocks for | morning wear. White crepe meteor crepe de chine, foulard, chiffon, or Georgette crepe are used for after noon dresses. White serge is used in suits and one-piece dresses and it is often lined with dark silk, showing under panels and over-tunics. The material known as silk gingham is used for blouses and frocks and is shown mostly in checks of color and white.
 l For afternoon dresses, etamine is shown; often one sees the smart com
 bination of navy blue over bright
 green silk. Straight one-piece dresses
 are made of linen, and often the lin
 en is combined with organdie or ba-
 tiste, to give it a dainty crispness. The
 linen is used for the lower part ot
 the frock and the organdie forms the l House.
 Taffeta is used for top-coats an6
 cne-piece dresses and the designers
 say that it will be worn all summer
 Last year gingham proved to be 2
 smart and entirely satisfactory fab
 ric for morning and afternoon frocks
 and it appeared at Palm Beach in al
 the phases of it's trim little checks apG stripes This season, it promises to bt just as smart. and already there arc some decidedly quaint gingham frock'
 to be seen, made on the newest line! of the season.
