NEW YORK, July 24-Dear. clever
Mr.. Shakespeare described the au-
tumn modes of 1919 several centuries
ago when he recommended-'Cos
thy raiment as thy purse can buy-but
not expressed in fancy"
u And fashionable women of America
will find their autumn wardrobes Just
that-costly. oh dear ycs-but far re-
moved from the freakish and the ex-
IRENE.
The tailored frocks of serve duve-
tyn, broadcloth and the inevitable jer-
sey weaves are fashioned in the
straight loose style in present vogue.
In such gowns the new point is the
one-sided effect-achieved by bit
of embroidery at the right of the bo-
dice, repeated on the opposite sleeve
and in back a reverse of the order
Evening frocks show more novelty
than day clothes.
Backless frocks-and most of them
are in this class, display long trains.
Lace is the choice OF all designers.
Paris especially favors the all-lace
dress in the corsetless type. There is
usually a sash of colored chiffon or
satin, with one long streamer termin-
ating in train.

Belts and sashes are specially fea-
tured, the latter being rather gorgeous
affairs. They are Of Mandarin or

WASHINGTON. d. C.. July ga
When William NJ. Boai, of Ronceverte,
W. Va, sent his Palm Beach suit to the
laundry. he forgot to remove from a
pocket in said u suit 50 bill and 81
bill. That was careless of him.
When the laundry sent the suit home
it was nice and clean and neatly
pressed, and also the two bills. They
were cleaned and pressed and faded
out, and certainly unfit for circulation.
So Boal sent them TO Senator Suther-
land and the latter passed them on to
the experts on ruined and damaged
green goods at the Treasury depart
ment. They said, after examination,
that the bills had been real currency
pnce upon a time, though they didn't
look much like it.
Thereupon, Secretary of the Treas
