Lightweight wool frocks are very

Cashmere Dresses
In Bright Colors
THIS need is now filed by dresses
Of cashmere in bright colors,
ysuch as strong shades Of reds
and blues. Then there are striped
cashmere frocks which arc most at
tractive. One is Of very dark blue
with pin stripe Of red-a subdued
red that has tint of blue in it. The
dress is made like regular chemise

A heavy cord covered with the mate.
rial is placed around the neck at
yoke depth. 1t extends onto the
shoulders, giving the appearance OF
q very shallow yoke.
By connecting the stripes With q
chain stitch Of red worsted a unique
trimming is achieved This takes
the form Of a band around the
sleeves and stripes down both the
back and front Of the frock. There
is no hem in this model, the bottom
Of the skirt being whipped with the
red worsted.
AS attractive as tho dresses are
the children's hats this season ar.
even more wonderful. The double
visor brim hat with stiff dome crown
is much IN evidence, the distinc
feature Of It being the Tommy At
kins chin strap. An adorable mode
Of this character has a blue straw
brim and a gray taffeta crown with
four bands and an anchorlng stral

AS for the tailored suits for chill

lacking, as is evinced by a little
three-piece costume Of blue serge
sketched to-day which has a gilet

Suggestions Sent
From tho Riviera

THESE fste dsys are occasions for
the beautiful dressing Of chill
dren, and It IL from this source that
great many of our children's fash
ions come. Copies Of many Of the
little hats worn by youngsters dun
ing the season on the Riviera are
already in this country. Among
them are somc lovely little lingerie
hats Of organdie and fine batiste
with hand embroidery and other
forms Of decoration
Ono Of the prettiest lingerie hats
for little girl is Of white organdio
It has q finely pleated brim and the
top Of the round crown Is also
plcated. The lower part Of the
crown is just straight organdie
band covered with design in fine
white cotton braid. Narrow blue
satin ribbons come from the bottom
Of the crown to tie In bow on the
tip top, from there floating away IN
slender streamers.
Another lingeris model FOR
little girl takes the form Of an ador-
able cap having close turned
up brim that Is covered with fire
hand embroidery. The strings, III
stead of tying Under the chin, form
a bow on the top Of the hat, just q
plain band of the ribbon going be-
meath the chin.

Paris has Just passed through a
coslless winter, with short sleeves

muffling collars. Is 1t genius or
contrariety that has brought about
this utter disregard Of seasonable

Many Prepare for Yuletide
Trade in Hope of Stimu-
lating Sales; to Urge
Utilitarian Basis Now

Christmas business looms up in the
minds Of the retailers as factor that
will help recoup some of the losses
they have suffered during the. past
few months. Here and there retail
ers are beginning to inject the Christ
mas idea in their advertising and their
window displays in a frank effort to
stimulate the tagging public into re-
newed spending.
Few merchants expect this Christmas
season to show as large q volume Of
business as last year. Conditions
have changed since then. For one
thing it will be harder to get the
prices at which some of the strictly
Christmas goods will be offered. 1t
must be borne in mind that toys,
novelties and host of other commo-
dtes that enjoy their briskest sale
around Christmas time, have to be
purchased months ahead The bulk Of
early as last March. Orders for some
Of the leather goods that are more
or less Christmas merchandise also
were placed in March At that time
prices we're at the peak.
Orders for some of these goods have
been cancelled, but a certain amount
have been taken In at the high prices.
This year more than ever the retail
crs are expected to make a drive for
Christmas business on utilitarian
goods. A project is on foot 20 adver-

Cotton Is Weaker
On Buying Slump;
Some Liquidation
January Contracts Sell OFF to
2O-Cent Level, Decline of
Nearly 2 Cents a Pound;
Little Trade Improvement

The cotton market was lower yes
terday as a result Of scattering liquida-
tion and local pressure promoted by
the failure of the British coal settle
ment to stimulate Manchester, and
reports of continued depression in the
domestic goods markets.
January contracts were sold off to
2O.32c in the late trading, making a
decline of 70 points from the final
quotation of Thursday and of 1856
points from the best price touched on
the rally of last Tuesday. That de-
livery closed at 20.43c, with the gen
eral market closing barely steady, at
Il net decline of As to 102 points, active
positions being as to So points net
lower.
Except for furries OF covering and
liquidation, business was generally
to a comparatively small volume of
orders. Much of the business was at
tributed to evening up accounts for

adjournment for Election Day. Liver
POOL also reported narrow market,
with prices lower, owing to the poor
trade in Manchester, and selling here
ty houses with English connections
was one of the trading features.
There was scattered Southern SELL
irg during the day, but the pressure
from that source was not active, and
the decline was most generally at
tributed to liquidation by recent buy
ers of futures and renewed pressure
from local traders, who have been i'm
pressed by the continued depression
OF the goods trade Sales of print
cloths in Fall River for the week we're
estimated at only 5000 pieces, while
there were reports of increasing mill
curtailment from both Northern and
Southern centers. Part of the after
noon selling was also accompanied by
predictions that with the filling Of
October commitments there would be
a further falling off in spot demand,
renderngthe spot markets more sensi-
tive to Moderate offerings.
Southern spot markets, as officially
reported yesterday, were unchanged to
rs points lower, middling quotations,
ranging from 20.7Oc to 22c, compared
with 1.15c, the closing quotation for
December contracts
The local market for spot cotton was
quiet and 40 points lower, at 2220c;

Shoe Trade DuIler
Novelties the Only Marketable
Goods as Buying Shrinks

Manufacturers Of both mems and
women's shoes in some cases are la
menting the fact that they began
pushing novelty styles for the present
fall season. In the small amount Of
business row coming IN to the {; ot-
wear manufacturers, the novelty styles
lead the demand, with staplnc, the
bread and butter" of the trade, al
most entirely neglected. The novel
ties, intended to stimulate additional
business, appear merely to have taken
over percentage of the normal bust
ness, and. Judging by the pessimism
obtaining among manufac turers, a
small percentage at that.
One curious feature in the trade in
women's shoes at present is the fact
that heavy brogue oXfords and thin,
light strap pumps are selling in about
equal proportions. On top of this,
high shoes, normally expected to sell
at the approach Of the fall and winter
season. are almost a drug on the
market
