there are petticoats, silk stockings and

woman, even as you and l. has no
time to change all her underwear, her
stockings and even her hairdressing
every time she takes twenty minute
rest between occupations of the day:
so she buys negligeos that do not
require so many stockings. A very
practical sort of negligee Is the one of
lowered silk. and crepe de chine
makes valuable garments of the sort,
also.
Japanese Kimonos In High Favor
There is renewed interest. this sea-

OF course. the great vogue OF cmbroid-
cry on all costumes this year is re-
sponsible for the interest in japanese
kimonos, which are so richly and
beautifully embroidered. one pays
for the embroidery-the moro there

kimono. There are Geisha kimonos

over the surface, and there are mag

Swanstlown Delightful For Winter

Another enchanting negligce for
cold weather wear is of light wool

with trimming of snowy swansdown

The garment slips over the head and
is in perfectly straight kimono shape
but the side edges below the waistline

the nation. Prior to the war the tariff
and internal revenue ran along pretty
close to each other. The two together
realized about six hundred millions a
year. That amount of money is about

real money. The interest on what the

items, but not one Of the dependables.
THE quick and necessary shift was

Of South Carolina that back in the old
pirate days Captain Kidd and Cap
tain Morgan and the others used to
sail up the Savannah river and bury
their stolen doubloons and pieces of
eight In the sands of the cypress
swamps. A fortune teller once came
through and for consideration Of sos
each agreed to tell the negroes just
where the gold was buried. He COL
lected sever; hundred dollars, and
then with a great deal of ceremony
staked out as many locations In the
sand as he had customers. He then
told them very solemnly to come to
that spot in the light OF the moon
stand directly over the stake and dig
at the end Of their shadow. Then he
sailed away on river steamer. And
he never came back.
