When costumers have busted them
selves for weeks turning out numbers
of beautiful and graceful afternoon
frocks they come TO a place where
they take time to explore occasional
by-paths of fancy. Then we are treat
ed TO few odd and sometimes anus
ing ideas in frocks of varieties quite
different from those that have gone be-
fore. The late arrivals lend spice to
the styles and sometimes PROVE TO be
the forerunners of new models. After
survey of this seasons afternoon
frocks the two models pictured here
are more than likely to be pronounced
odd" but with the concession that
they are pleasing.
Satin and georgette were made for
each other and Join forces in the
quaint-looking frock on the figure at
the left of the picture. A plain satin
skirt Is the foundation for a short, full
tunic of geOrgette, which in turn sup
ports three bands of satin. In the
bodice the order is reversed and the
crepe provides the under portion and

short-sleeved peasant waist worn
over il has a double row of small,
round, satin-covered buttons down the
front, set very close together. All its
edges are piped with satin-cOvered
cord. This frock must stand or fall
on its own merits. as 1t has nothing in
the way of precedent TO lean upon in
the seasons showings.
The dress 'at the right starts out
with plain skirt of satin and finishes
up with a very short tunic and bodice
of the same material For once geOr-
gette crepe plays no part in the story.
The tunic is shorter at the left side
than at the right and manages to
make place for three bands of satin
and also contrives TO look frivolous.
A full bodice and wide, crushed girdle
lend such flavor of youthfulness to
this frock that its frivolity is taken as
a matter of course, and the deep far
ing cuffs that finish the sleeves prove
so unexpected as TO be amusing.

Capes and capellke wraps have
taken such hold upon popular taste
that designers continue to offer new
models in them. 1t Is something of a
task to avoid duplicating styles and
TO preserve flavor of individuality In
wraps as simply constructed as the
cape Is, bot the ingenuity of their
makers keep them from being tire
somely alike. There is better
chance for variety In dolmans and In

The wide green door, set far back
in recess not unlike kiosk, was
opened by a man servant who might
easily have been mistaken for a waiter

De Soto. II will make the cocktails

Much TO Barnes surprise-and dis

was of ordinary dimensions, furnished
with thought for comfort rather than
elegance or even good taste. The
cOuches and chairs were low and deep
and comfortable, as If intended for
men only, and they were covered with
rich, gay materials; the hangings at
the windows were Of deep blue and
gold; the walls an unobtrusive cream
color, almost literally matched with
etchings.
The stairs were thickly carpeted. At
the top his guide turned to the left
and led the way down a long corridor.
They passed at least four doors be-
fore O'Dowd stopped and threw open
the fifth on that side of the hall. There
were still two more doors beyond.

the Irlshman, standing aside for
Barnes to enter. "All of the sleeping
apartments are on this floor, and the
baths and boudoirs and what not. The

deposit our family skeletons, intern

Securities and Money
Stock Prices
Again Advance
AS Shorts Cover

The upward swing of prices in the
stock market, which started Thursday,
continued yesterday and as the trading
week closed many securities had COM
pletely recovered from the severe de-
clines that took place on Monday and
Wednesday.
Many operators who were still short
deemed 1t a part Of wisdom to cover
yesterday so they could be out of the
market over the weekend. The senti-
ment among professionals was again
cheerful, and the hopefulness that pre-
vailed was based largely on forecasts of
large earnings by the automobile manu-
facturers. Despite the tendency Of
prices to make gains varying from a
fraction to more than three points, the
market remained mainly in the hands
of Wall Street men, with the general
public still restrained by timidity from
buying stocks on a large scale.
Transactions exceeded 100000 shares,
and 207 different kinds of stocks were
bought and sold, compared with 279 in
the five-hour session on Friday.
Motor stocks were again the features
and the further bidding up Of the Sc
curities of corporations which report
inability to handle all the business that
| is flowing to them started at the out
set. The rails also were moved upward
slightly by the impetus of the market
and the oils and marines gained sew
eral points.
Lack Of activity in the market was
attributed largely to uncertainty over
the money situation and anxiety as to
what the weekly Clearing House state
ment would show. When it was made
public it revealed deficit Of $4,000
in the reserves of the banks at the
Federal Reserve Bank, the second def
icit since the Federal Reserve system
was established. This was interpreted
to mean sitter money rates for at least
the first few days of next week. Yet it
was recalled that the market had been
weak early this week, when call money
rates were notably weak, and had be-
come frmer in the latter half of the
week, when money rates were increased.
The bond market remained listless,
without any great fluctuations in prices.
The selling of high grade investment
issues for foreign account during the
last week was estimated to amount to
more than 100000.

NEW SERIES PAIGE
WILL MAKE ITS
DEBUT AT THE SHOW

The Paige is presented to the public
at the Automobile show in a new
series which has just made its debut.
Judging from the enthusiasm of the
dealers who have already seen these
cars, the motoring public will find a
line of automobiles which will not on
Ny compel their attention but which
will he found to be fa- superior to any
motor cars that have hitherto borne
the Paige name plate.
The large manufacturers of motor
cars have neca CARLY learned a great
deal in the last two years." says Pres
ident Harry NJ. Jewett, of the Paige.
our own experience has been inVal-
liable and we have not only thai addi-
tional asset as designers ana ldilders
of cars, but also far greater facilities
of all kinds than ever before IN the
ten years of our history.
The new series of Paige cars is
the fruit of this wider experience and
greater facilities. They embody re-
finements of design, of engineering
and of equipment that enhance the
appearance, the quality and the COM
fort Of the car. These are features
that we have always emphasized Wis
itors at the show will quickly deter
mine whether the new series will up
