HEADGEAR IN BRIGHT COL LoRs
Rich Yellow Tones Featured in Many of the Hats; All-Feather
 Toques Arrive.

Rich yellow tones, running through the range of gold and pumpkin to rust shades, are occupying the center of the millinery stage just now. Just how long the style will hold-how many yellow hats there will be on the heads of womankind as we'll as in the shop windows-awaits to be seen. As yet yellow is seen principally in millinery shops and in shop windows. It is striking, and when becoming should be very smart indeed. A vivid colored hat topping dark street suit or frock is unquestionably chic.
 It is interesting to observe that the all-feather toques that have been worn for several seasons are with us again, unchanged as far as shape and general appearance is concerned. As always they are finding purchasers.
 Hand painting on velvet is very smart trimming touch employed this season. The design may be as color ful and unusual as fancy dictates. Imagine peacock feathers, in, their nat ural colors, painted across the upper brim of big black velvet hat, or gor- geous butterflies in various sizes and coIors similarly placed.
 Ostrich is recorded as one of the much used trimmings. Uncurled or "glycerined" effects, as well as curled plumes and tips, are employed.

PLATED AND PLAlDED SKIRTS
Fashion Apparently to Experience An other Season as Successful
 as the Last.

The statement heard constantly in manufacturers showrooms that at least 50 per cent of their early fall is attested to by the showing in the retail stores
 Plaits, too, are apparently to have another season as successful as the last. This is the type of skirt that is most in evidence on the many racks and display forms around the stores: Although many of the colors are rath- CT ssomber in effect, the brown tones predOminating, some of the brighter shades, including burnt orange, ap- pear frequently.
 One of the most striking instances of this is seen in knife -plaited mod el of large plaid, on background of burnt orange, which is visible in huge squares. Many knife-plaited numbers are included among the new things, although other plaited styles are also we'll represented. The Sll around box plaited skirt is seen in blue-and-tan checked basket woven fabric, while larger checks are treated in other ways,
 PIaids made in combination plaited styles, stitched down at the top, are another important item, more interest ing owing to the fact that they are newer than the simple knife and box plaits that held sway during the past season. There are also pocketed skirts, which have plain sections al- ternating with stitched-down plaits.

USE RIBBON LOOP TRIMMING
Decoration Popular for Frocks, MIL
 iinery and NegIlgee, as We'll as Fancy Work.

A ribbon trimming that Is very pret- ty is made of ribbon loops. Satin ribbon about an inch wide Is the favor ite ribbon to make 1t of, and the loops are applied in all sorts of ways. Flat loops about two inches deep are per- haps the most favored. Pale pink rib- bon loops make the sole trimming on a young girls party frock of pink georgette and are looped at intervals Of few inches apart around the round baby neck, hang just below the wide gfrdle at the top of the skirt and are looped upward on the short bell sleeves and upward from the hem.
 On millinery loops of grosgrain rib bon. to initiate fringe, around the crown of this years turbans are very good.
 Other wearables on which this pop ular ribbon loop trimming Is seen fn- clude negligee, camisoles, pe*ticoats, children's frocks, evening fro and fancy work, such as sofa e ms and bureau accessories. f

BREAKFAST COAT vs. KIMoNo
Latest Garment Is Regarded More Be- coming and Excellent as
 Pullman Robe.

Simplicity is the rule in the best undergarments shown this season, and fine sheer cOttons are extremely popu- lar.
 Negligees and boudofr apparel shown for fall and winter adhere to simplic- ity in line, although rather gorgeous materials are liked. Printed chfffons and georgettes and the lovely printed silks in soft weaves are used for breakfast coats, which are usually untrimmed except for rulings of self fabric or ribbon.
 The breakfast coat, generally gar ment with long, plain upper section reaching about to the hips, and a gath cred or plaited skirt attached, making 1t full figure length, is an excellent Pullman robe. The woman who wears one for travelling looks much more pre- sentable in the early morning than when she dons kimono. A matching bandeau or boudoir cap is not bad investment. Nearly all the more elab- crate negligees shown are equipped with boudoir caps to match. Some three-piece sets, negligee, boudofr cap and chemise, made of shaded chiffon, are among the novelties now being of- fered.

HATS OF RIBBON
Very Wide Decorations Are Bet-
 ter for Fall Headgear.
Material Gives an All-over Shaggy Appearance to Smart Toques
 and Turbansg

The latest millinery offerings might be said to have but one thing in com mon, and that is generally soft, un- studied effect, which is preserved, no matter what the material or the trim ming. After that, writes a fashion correspondent, it is safe to say that over fifty per cent of the newest hats are of velvet, of either Lyons or panne, some of both that ribbon hats are al- most as common and often more in- teresting than velvet, and that felt, leather and lace are generously rep resented. The duvetyn displayed late in the summer is scarcely noticeable now, except in combination or as trim ming.
 The hats displayed In the Paris openings are now beginning to leave their mark upon the American styles, and the combination of American workmanship which understands the American woman's needs with that dashing originality of the French re- suits in some very beautiful specimens of the designers art. Three things characterize the latest millinery shapes. One is that soft, draped eff fects are particularly stressed; the second that trimmings droop, rather than spring upward, and, thirdly, that the uneven brim. especially the Harle- Quin shape, which widens at the sides, turns up from the face and shows narrow rim in back, is sure to be very popular.
 Speaking of ribbon hats, 1t is inter- esting to note the new ribbons manu- factured for their use. The very wide ribbons running from five to ten @inches, are better for the purpose of the puffed and draped hats than the narrower ribbons of the spring. There are some fascinating new shaggy rib bons, shredded wheat" ribbons they have been called, and others with frayed edges, which, when used, give an all-over shaggy appearance to smart@ @toques and turbans. The cire ribbons are also very good, especially the newer ones made to resemble leather. Among these latter two nov cities have reached this side of the ocean-one is snakeskin ribbon, and the other frogskin.
 limitations are not scorned by the faShtOnADle mlII1ner. Sne now cOnue- scends to use some of the new plushes instead of fur one in particular. in a taupe gray. realistically made to re- semble squirrel. There Is a new ''watchspring" feather trimming, some times initiated by such almost un- dreamed-of things as elephants whis- kers and other strong, curled hairs or metal threads. Cog plumes are to be expected in a season when trimming is trained to droop, and even these are occasionally initiated by picoted strands of silk, or given metallic touch by having their tips gilded or bronzed. Coz is not used in the nat ural color alone, but is found in fas cinating jades and rusts. Cire satin and faille initiate the gloss of fine leather to the point of deceit.

MANY CAFES WORN IN PARIS
French Styles Counted on to Hold Sway Throughout Country for
 Fall Wear.

Wise in the changed ways of the world. we no longer look every autumn fer complete revolution in fashion, such as used to happen in the old days, when every gown and suit in a wom- ans wardrobe might become unwear- able almost over night, says Paris writer in Vogue. Individual taste in dress is allowed it's way nowadays, in manner which was never dreamed of in our mothers philosophy. Neverthe- less. as summer wanes, we look eagerly for indications of coming modes in the dress of women whose ideas as a rule influence the mode, and we attend smart gatherings with our eyes wide open for any indication of future in- tentfons on the part of the great cou- turiers.
 What is worn in Paris during the Grande Semaine still has its bearing nn what will, be worn by the rest of the

AT-HOME DRESSES
Simple Effects Characterize the
 Models Now Offered.
or Silk Fabric Are Favored by MiIady.

Never were the costumes designed for the afternoon of fthe day" at home so alluring in unusual artistry In sim pie effects. k The modes for the afternoon, when friends arrive to chat informal how'dys over cups filled with impromptu- brewed beverage, are quite wonderful In simple adjustment and decoration that typffy the best artistry. Many of the models presage a permanency of respect for comfort, good health and beauty in the development of modes.
 The little gowns for the afternoon at home are especially simple in the portrayal of a hostess good taste in separating herself from any hint of being overdressed.
 One model is combination of skirt and jacket. The skirt is of black taf- feta, quite plain, with exception of an apron of the same fabric, at the front, caught up in soft watteau folds at the left side, and secured at the hip line in one soft, long loop and longer end of the same fabric.
 The back of the skirt is scantily fulled. The jacket is of white lace over fine black net, and 1t hangs straight to the hip line. The fronts form a low V, and attached to the edges and to the semilow neck, in the back, is a wide Venice lace bertha, lowered on an all most transparent background.
 Little black beads glisten on the definite and sweeping neck line. The open front of the vestee is filled with six rows of soft lilac taffeta rib- bon, seantily fulled into ruffles. The sleeves are elbow length, finished with narrow Venice lace.s This model is declared one of the extremes in "dress- iness," for the afternoon at home.
 Little one-piece gowns of soft wool or silk fabric, daintily and plainly de- veloped are especially in favor for milady's at home afternoon. Skirts

IN KIDDIES' TOCS
Small Costumes Patterned After
 Large Ones Are Smart.
Plaited, PIaided and Embroidered
 Clothes Prove Charming for the Little Folks.

Dresses and coats are no less smart these days for being caught while they are young. You see, observes fash ion writer, small costumes pattern after large ones and so, of course, they are smart
 Autumn costumes for grown-ups are very much plaited, plaided and en- broidered, hence small clothes must follow suit. When these various styles are fttingly adapted to the needs of little people the effect is nothing short of charming.
 How do you like the clever adapta- tion of the eton jacket and the .plaited skirt?
 Here there is a wonderful OppOrtu- nifty for using bright colors, since the skirt may be made of Roman stripe or plaid material. Suppose you use a red woolen for the little jacket and striped red and brown for the skirt? The collar and cuffs may be made of plain white organdie or batiste and pasted to the frock so that they may be easily removed for washing.

 Perhaps you would prefer dress which takes It's color from the autumn woods, as they appear in the earlier season, you know, just when the leaves change their color. Make the jacket of dull green and the skirt of plaid or striped material in which there is much brown, green and red.
 Among the materials you have a choice of serge, gabardine, jersey cloth, duvetyn, twill or flannel.
 } Let us say you use orange-colored duvetyn for the top and plaid in which there is much orange and brown for the skirt. A lapel is placed on the skirt to make up for the absence of

 One blouse has a front of red chif- fon satin and attached sides and back of twill wool fabric. These sides are gathered at the waistline, and de pend straight, to the hip line. The plain back is similar. The sleeves are of the wool fabric, bell shaped at the wrist. Many of the blouses are quite plain, of lace. soft silk or wool-and others are fluffy and frilly things, but not at all suggestive of elabora- ton.

woos Flowers and Trimmings.

For fall, crocheted and embroidered wool trimming for hats will be more widely used than ever. Stiff geo. metric designs embroidered on felt, duvetyn and velvet in all colors, 1t is said by designers, will be fashionable. Wool embroidery on a net foundation if it is slightly raised, gives the eff feet of having been crocheted instead of worked through the material.

searfs Are Much Worn.

The cool days have brought with them a vogue for scarfs, worn tucked under the belt in front, or with one end thrown over the shoulder-in fact almost any way. Many of the scarfs are of a soft woolen material, in stripes of vivid and soft colors com bined. Others are woven in silk thread, having a knitted effect. A fringe of the material finishes the ends, or they are just left plain.

A Good Silver Polish.

The basis of most prepared silver polish is French whiting, a fine white powder. It is much cheaper to buy the whiting and make your own silver polish. Wash the silver in hot soap studs and wipe 1t. Lay paper on the table. Put some of the whiting in a saucer and add enough ammonia or diluted alcohol to make a paste. Rub this over the silver with soft cloth and lay the silver on paper to dry. When you have finished this rub the whiting off with clean soft cloth. Then polish the silver with a chamois akin.

Novelties in Fur Neckpieees.

Greater variety and more detail in design will be seen in fur neck pieces this winter, furriers say. Leading sellers" they. declare, twill doubtless be the well-known animal scarf and the plain scarf, but in the newer styles there are numberless moderate-sized choker ties, the general construction of which is a scarf varying from fif- teen inches to yard long, with a slash toward one end for the other end to pass through. Another piece has short choker collar with two wide pointed ends which lie flat against the front of the coat in revers fashion.

Enr Small Girls

Combinations of black and white are greatly favored for children's dresses. One charming little dress of black vel vet recently seen had the touch of white carried out by bands of white angora at neck and sleeves. For dressy wear are shown chiffon velvet frocks in black, cut low in the neck and sleeveless, and worn with guimpes of white filet lace.

For the boudoir, to, give added warmth, little silk coats are worn in- stead of sweaters. They are some times padded with cotton for warmth, but withal they are so supple that they cling to the figure charmingly.

FEEDING HENS FOR
EGG PRODUCTION

For profitable egg production, 1t is
necessary that hens have all they will
eat Of we'll balanced reproducing
ration. The heavy laying hen is a good
feeder; the under fed hen is always
bin Of expense, say specialists Of the
Division Of Extension, University Of
Tennessee.
Hens often become too fat because
the ration is deficient In protein and
ash. The protein can best be supplied
by sour skimmllk, meat scrap and
tankage, and the ash by oyster shell.
The hen cannot change the compost
ton of the egg to suit the kind Of feed
which she Is supplied; she will NOT lay
at nil unless she has the right mater
lals for making a perfect product. It
Is better economy to buy, II need be,
such feeds as are necessary to make
balanced ration than use home feeds
and get no eggs. Ask your county
agent or write to the Division Of Ex.
tension, University of Tennessee, for
free bulletins on poultry and rations
for reproduction.
