SMART MIDDAY FROCKS PREFER
 FIGURED FABRICS

The large proportion of those lunch ing at the Ritz these days are women. and many of them are in town from the fashionable resorts, not too far away for an occasional visit to the city. Others are. among those who still find New. York the most excellent summer resort.
 Two things are distinctly noticeable in the smart clientele of these res taurants; one is, that whatever may be said of the failure of the printed fabrics for this season, they are dis tinctly, popular in Georgettes and ch1f- ions, as we'll as foulards.
 In the figured frocks the grays and softer French blues seem to be espe- used in simple pleatings with an ut terly plain bodice and frined collar and cuffs is a style which has much approval. The small number of cot ton frocks or sports styles which are introduced at such a rendezvous is | remarkable in view of the fact that ! most of the women are dressed in sheer fabrics. Scarcely a suit appears although the simply cut short Sleeved serge or tricotine chemise with em- broidery or some other ornament, is 1 still much worn.
 | Ruffle treatment of pleatings are a
 strongly liked trimming feature, par ticularly used in the spiral effect and I bandings- of bright color, such as em-
 erald or cherry, appears as borders or
 aprons or panels of dark colore6 crepe frocks which suggest a French origin.

UNIQUE NUMBERS RENDERED AT
 BAND CONCERT

Owing to the fact that there were two band concerts scheduled for last, evening the arena on State street was not as crowded as last week, when the Harvey Hubbell band rendered a pleasing program of 10 numbers.
 Each number last evening was fla vorably received by an appreciated audience. Most unique among these was "The Forge in the Forest" re- alistic pastoral tone-picture. A lit tie forge was erected on the band stand where the musicians sounded the clang of their anvil over the bursting flame. "Ivan the Terrible :, an overture written by the director, Dr. Giovanni E. Conterno, when but 19 years old, received a warm recep- ton. This selection has been accept ed as a standard classic by the lead
 ing musicians the world over.
 The musicians were generous vith their response to encores following every number. Another concert will be held next week. Thursday. Y

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications. as they cannot reach the diseased portions of the ear There is only one way to cure catarrhal deafness. and hat is by q constitutional remedy. Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an intlamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube When this tube iS intiamed you have rumh- ling sound or imperfect hearing. and whe nit is entirely closed. Deafness is the result. Unless the infiamma ton can be reduced and this tube rtstored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever. Many cases of deaf ness are caused by catarrh. which is an infamed condition of the mucous sur faces. Halls Catarrh Cure acts thru the blood on the mucous surfaces of the system.

States. Mir. Quezon and the Hon. Ser gio Osmena, Speaker of the Philippine House of Representatives and Vice President of the Council of State, are the leaders of the Nacionallsta party, which has been in power since 1907.
 While Speaker Osmena is not so well known in the United States as Quezon, he Is considered one of the ablest men in the islands. Senate President Que zon recently referred to Osmena as "the greatest Filipino since Rizal."
 The personal relations between Os- mena and QueZon are probably without a parallel in modern politics They have been the leading political figures in the islands for 12 years, yet there has never been the slightest indication of rivalry between them. Throughout their college life as well as their long political service each has refused to be a candidate for any position that tAe other aspired to.
 During the years Quezon was the Philippine delegate in the American Congress he won the esteem and con. hdence of both the Republican and Democratic sides of the chamber. Whenever he spoke he was assured of a good attendance One of the official short hand reporters once declared Quezon used the purest English of any member of the House
 0smena. as president of the Sacion. alsta party, is the leader of the na. tional movement for independence.
