Popular Garment Promises to Flour
ish as Never Before-Dresses
and Gowns Passe.

Dresses and gowns are utterly
passe. But If miIady feels that such
garments have their place in the fall
wardrobe. she must see to ii that her
one-piece gown is so camoufiaged that
II appears as separate skirt and
blouse, for fashion DEGREES that
blouses shall flourish as never before
in this coming season.
Manufacturers and retailers explain
this fad as another broadside 81 fash
ion debating Paris. For Paris has
long shifted Mt the American inven-
ton of separate skirt and waist.
New York women have hailed the
blouse year with delight. The avenue
shop windows are full of these up
pers'' of all kinds and prices. The
slip-on blouse continues 10 be first In
popularity. while holero and tie-back
effects are very good. The long tunics
and Russian models are in the minor
fly. although this past season effect Is
partly carried ont by the moyen age
blouses, which fit the figure like a
tight bodice or basque TO the hips and
then flare out over full plated or
gathered skirt. The old style tucked
in blouses are so completely out of
the running that skirts hive been
sewed 10 inner eamisoles over which
the blouse is worn.
The only new blouses that are not
worn outside the skirt are the hand
MADE models of linen. batiste. lawn or
organdie. These are adorned with
hand-sewn laces, tucking, hemstitchIng

Some of the newest bathing sandals
are merely soles, with two sets of
bright colored ribbons laced about the
ankle to hold them on.
Upon dresses of all varieties which
are not subjected to tub cleansing raf-
fla Is used. Satin and serge especially
lend themselves to this sort of en-
broidery.

DO BUSINESS OVER COFFEE
In Asiatic Cities the Merchants Gath
er in Shops to Discuss Affairs
of Trade.

Streets In the baZar districts OF
Asiatic cities are only eight to ten
feet wide. The larger shops are eight
by ten and the smaller ones five by
six feet. In each bazaar Is khan for
every ten or twelve shops. These khans
are two stories high, with an open
court In the center and rooms on the
four sides all opening into the court
A door leads from the open court into
the street. Rooms are let to different
storekeepers for storage purposes.
Each bazaar has a coffee shop, which
is a large. open place covered partly
by roof, where are a number OF
wooden settees ranged in rows. Any
visitor who Sits Is first given cup OF
Turkish coffee and then a narghile OF
native pipe filled with ShirZa tobacco.
The charge for coffee and the use OF
the pipe is shout cents. Here the
merchants gather TO discuss trade
bills, and bank representatives to
check the number of bills to be taken
up and secure data for exchange rates
for bills and foreign coin. Rates are
practically determined in the coffee
shops.

Light and Airy co!crs Is Prcd:c-
ton for Season.
Designers Are Endeavoring to Eiimi.
nate Lines Which VIII Give
Wearer Broad Appearances.

Tea time In fashionable places Is
MOST fascinatin hour this time OF
the year. as we are all. tired of sport
clothes and this ords an opportunity
Of seeing somethii-s decidedly new In
little afternoon frocks. according 70 Q
fashion authority.
1t is going TO continue TO be ran
season of light airy colors-cream
lace for afternoon wear and black
lace for evening wear-quite the re-
verse Of what we have been accus-
toned to.
A charming frock worn at tea by a
blonde miss was deep ecru pussy viii
low faffeta and an overdreSs of fish-
net lace In cream color. A wide rib
bon girdle with immense bow and
streamer ends In the back was of wide
ribbon In light tobacco brown. The
whole dress carried three tones of the
lighter shades of brown beautifully
blended. The hat worn was one of
the newer models. medium sized
rolling brim. 1t was a brown duve-
tyn. beautifully hand embroidered In
several oriental shades. The crown.
semi,Tam O'Shanter effect, was of sill
yer metallic embroidery trimmed on
one side with soft bow of glossy
brown satin ribbon.
Black lace certainly reigns supreme
for semlevening affairs.
Whether q coat Is long or short,
wide or narrow at the bottom, or a
wrap of conservative rich velvet or
any other popular material. the de-
signers are endeavoring to eliminate
any lines which will give the wearer
a broad appearance.
The majority of suit coats are al
most knee length. many unbelted and
slightly flaring at the bottom. but not
rippled. although few show pointed
insets of contrasting materials
One suit was most novel. showing a
cape instead of coat. The skirt was
made on plain. straight lines. the ma

WHY THEY WERE IN CUBA
Party of Tourists Finally Found Who
Were Willing to Tell the
Truth About It.

An old friend of the writer of thl,
item, who has been covering" the
water front at Havana for the last
twenty years, writes that for the first
time in all that period he greeted some
tourists who came right back at him
with the real plain unvarnished truth
as to the reason for their visit to
Cuba.
These fellows hailed from Louisi
ana and Texas, and when accosted
with the time-worn Interrogation, ANY
special significance to your visit heref
they did not camouflage.
There was nothing about climate
nothing Of business or seeing the
world.

Attire-Corsets Are Only

According TO the fashion experts of
Paris. the "molded frock" is among

by "molded" we do not mean a re-
vival of the '.hour glass" figure-fhat
unnatural over-emphasizet fashion
which made women look as though
they had been poured into their clothes
and then left to harden. Nine. Mag

English as She Is Spoke.

A young man from the United
States went into Scotland Yard, Lon
don, on his way to the hospital, to
report his change of residence, and the
sergeant in charge. a cockney, asked:
Are you going to die?"
The startled American said he hoped
aot, but that if he did he hoped that
they would ship his body back to the
states, and turned to go.
A laughing clerk called him back
and explained that the cockney SER
geant only meant "Are you going to-
day?" Quite another thing !-Edin,
