IN midsummer
The gown worn by the figure that holds fan
above her head is a study in black and flesh
color. Many times l have said that l like
flesh colored lining because it looks cosy. The
bodice with its broad straps is made Of repeated
folds Of chiffon. The bodice itself is enwrapped
in the delicate, flesh colored fabric. The reason
ably short skirt is of black satin slightly draped
in the front and straight in the back Over both
bodice and skirt hangs a scant drapery OF black
net which rises to a shoulder height at the back
and ankle length at the skirt. The drapery has
a narrow border Of jet About the hip line are
three graduated jet bands. A scarflike effect is
secured at the front by long, tied ends Of chiffon
that hang from the bust line. The looseness of
the drapery gives to the gown a grateful appear
ance Of coolness
Another still more elaborate evening gown, is
built upon a foundation of satin. Over the scant
little draped skirt is arranged drapery Of black
net An over-drapery which hangs diagonally
from the bust line is a solid massing of jet The
straight drapery at the back is fringed with jet
The shawl-like effect of the net in front Is en-
phasized by Jet fringe. The very low bust line
of the black satin and net is heightened by the
introduction of wide piece of Valenciennes lace
Over one shoulder seems to have been flung
fold of jetted lace net shawl Really the
drapery of this sleeve represents high artistry
and elaborate care. Over the other shoulder is
worn strap of jet. This is one Of my most
successful and most admired creations.
The wraps worn with Summer evening gowns
are of necessity of light texture. The one shown
ON this page is of dark reversible satin, the under
side being Of contrasting shade. 1t is short.
Around the shoulders passes a wide, shirred,
double edged trimming of the same silk The
collar and hem are of the reversible silk. The
cloak does not quite hide the gown OF white
heavily beaded net with fishtail train.
A lovely new evening gown designed for early
Autumn wear by dazzling brunette is built OF
rose-colored velvet and silver lace. The founda-
ton material is of the rosecolored velvet. 1t is
cnt into a very low v at the front and back. The
skirt is slightly draped at the left side. 1t has
long fshtail train. Over this is worn a Mandarin
coat Of silver lace.

Another fair indication of the supe-
rior chances OF the Rowlett Paine ticket
over the j. J. williams ticket In the

eagerness with which hard headed

Guilty which they are having In finding

than one firm is passing the word
around that II has $1,000, S., 1000 or as
high as $4,000 which IT is willing and
anxious to place upon the success OF
Rowlett Paine e. Co. In most instances
substantial odds are being offered to
encourage the tlmid Wniamites.
The men offering these bets are not
philanthropists and are not putting up
their money for the sake OF hestowing
Il upon aged and epfeebled hackers OF
Williams. Their purpose Is to show
their confidence In their judgment and
swell the sum total of their own worldly
wealth after Nov 6, They are men
who by backing their Judgment in pre-
Nious deals have become more than
well-to-do.
