Indian Social Festivities.

The Indians of Northwest and GEN.
trail British Columbia are now in the
throes of the height of the social sea-
son. One potlatch scarcely ends be-
fore another starts. The Indians
gathered at Morricetown n short time
ago in large numbers and gave away
10 each other all their personal be-
longings. No one suffered. as each
had a suit of clothes TO give and
take. Now, the potlatch at Hagwilget,
in the Hazelton district. is on. The
Indians have foregathered again. An
other gathering will be held later in
the north. Considerable business is
done at these functions by the white
traders. They meet the trapper In
dams and buy the spring fur catches.

Accessory Worn With TaiIleur, Quits
the Mode in France, American
Woman States.

An American woman who is travel
ing in France writes Women's Wear
that there is a noticeable lack of the
fine neckwear which used TO be found
on all sides before the war. When the
fine linon de i'll is found, it is only in
the smart speciality shops and at pro-
hibiti1e prices.
The vest, worn with the tailleur, is
quite the mode at present. she states,
and is seen in all kinds of materials.
Some have the rather masculine bos-
oms. preferred by those whose taste
disregards the ornate.
Vests of stripped pique, plain pique
with large pearl buttons, printed jer-
sey de sole in oriental colorings, sheer
lace and net, printed linen and chintz,
and duvetyn. are the rage. and many
trotteur frocks are designed especially
for the purpose of admitting their use
The plisse frills are fiuted beauti-
fully with electric curling irons. the
newest ones falling 10 the waist and
terminating in smart bows of organdie
White, rose, old blue, flesh and pale
yellow organdie are the favorite colors
for these.

Anew YORK.-A frail little woman in

her husband as he slept. She was Mrs.
Alexandra Sokolowsky. widow OF
Frank Sokolowsky, widely-known or

following remarkable story:

seventh street. They were grouped
appropriately about her one bright
morning when she expressed the
wish:
~ think I'd like to have brick of
Ice cream"
As one the three men leaped up and
dashed away. Theirs not TO reason
why. theirs not TO make reply. The
witch Hazel desired brick of ice
cream. The question was who would
be first with the brick to win the ben
ediction of her smile?
Nip and tuck they ran to the soda
water emporium of Harry Shrago at
IA East Sixty-third street. They ar
rived together. to discover two facts.
The first was that Mr.. Shrago had
closed shop for dinner. The second
was expressed breathlessly by Mr.. Fin

TIE barberia was conceived in the
brain OF an old-time barber who began
to worry over his loss of trade when
the increased prices went into eff

his old patrons were shaving them

be a good idea TO establish a shop
where these new self-shavers could
be supplied with all the paraphernalia
necessary TO do their own operating.
II proved an instant success. and in
