SOME, OF THE NEWEST NEGLIGEEs

but the bifurcated garments are usual
ly yelled by swathing draperies or float
ing panels that add to the charm of
these ORDINATIONS.
A particularly beautiful negligee is
fashioned from Chinese blue chiffon
and green charmeuse, the foundation
being of this latter color. 1t is cut
away in the front to reveal a dainty
yestee of flesh chiffon and Val lace.
From beneath a girdle of blue satin
appears jade green satin brocaded in
gold. The edges of the deep Mandarin
sleeves are trimmed with long bead tas-
sells. while the chiffon over-gown is
held in place by wide bead girdle.
Fruit as a trimming gives a smart
touch to any negligee. If grapes are
used, they come in such lovely colors
as silver, gray, green, peach and
orange. Often they are combined with
blossoms. Orange buds look lovely
with their crisp waxy white petals,
dark green leaves and colorful fruit.
The use Of buds and fruit is also re-
sorted to on hats, as wide brims in

That night when the moon was shin

his friend, Mr.. Hound Dog, first MAX

chase Mr.. Fox, because he would spoil
everything.
1t was very hard for Mr.. Hound TO
understand what could be more sport
than chasing Mr. Fox, but on being
promised a very large bone he said ne
would do just as Mr.. Dog told him.
They hid behind some bushes, and
pretty soon along came Mr.. Fox, but
hearing Mr.. Dog and Mr.. Hound talk

run away if they moved.

friend, "the master had decided that
Mr.. Fox is too smart for US, and so he
has bought some new hen houses and
put them in the yard back OF the barn.

II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have The Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
It is that SO many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten! The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer This
applies more particularly to medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need Of it..
A prominent druggist says Take for
example DR.. Kilmer'S Swamp Root, a
preparation I have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for IN
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has SO large
sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of Dir.
Kilmer's Swamp Root is due to the fact,
SO many people claim, that it fulfills al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri-
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive sample bottle OF
Swamp Root by Parcels Post. Address
DIR. Kilmer & Co., Binghanlton, n. Il,

The Right Thing
at the Right Time
By MARY MARSHALL DUFFEE
WHEN YOU TELEPHONE.

TN THE business world it is no lon
ger considered good form when you
telephone to use the word Hello
designated by one of the telephone
directors as ian ungraceful and rude
little word" Much less then ought it
to be used in social telephoning and
the telephoning that takes place after
business hours and in the home.
''Remember-teleph courtesy be-
gins when the bell rings says a lit
tie booklet recently got out by one of
the telephone companies. Now this
is something that the young man or
woman i'll business has to remember.
He knows. for instance, if he is deal
ing with possible buyers that he is far
more apt to get an order if he does
remember it. If he responds to the
telephone with surly, what do you
want?" before he knows who is call
ing and then, when he realizes that
it is a customer, changes the tone of
his voice and his mode of speech. he
has made a bad beginning. and he is
less apt to make a sale than if he
opens the conversation with courtesy
and cordiality.
Now here are some things that you
should remember whether you are us
ing the telephone for business or pure
ly social or personal purposes.
If you open the telephone converse
ton do not ask any one to give his or
her name until you announce your
own.
If you are calling certain person
in household and another member
of the family whose voice you recog-
nize answers do not ignore that per-
son, saying, "Hello, I want to speak
to Mary" but rather something like
this: "Good morning, Jane; this is
Claire speaking. May l talk to Mary?'
If another person opens the tele-
phone conversation do not make the
mistake of prolonging the conversation
after she has finished her Grand Es-
pecially if an out-of-town wire is be-

GOWNS FOR THE BALL room
Simple StraightIine Models and
Fuller Skirted Frocks.
Two Types of Dresses Are vying With
Each other; Short Sleeves
Are Used.

Two types Of evening dresses vylng
with each other a. the present mo-
ment are the simple straightline mod
els of crepe de chine and the bout
FAINT fuller skirted frocks.
In the new French frocks in which
a fuller silhouette is achieved, short
sleeves or draperies to simulate sleeves
are used All the new dresses show
greater attention to sleeves than to
any other part of the costume.
There is the dropped yoke with
short puff sleeves as well as deep
puffs at the bottom of a tight-ftting
cap sleeve. Or the yoke may continue
over the shoulder and be slashed at
the sides, giving the effect of a draped
sleeve left open its full length. The
Off-the-shoulder line is very promi-
nent in the newest evening frocks and
there is surprising number of varia-
tions of the 1880 empiecement.
Many of the dresses show a draped
effect at one side. 1t is interesting to
note that many of the evening frocks
are of velvet and that bright-colored
velvets are quite as much in evidence
as black.
An equally attractive use is maGe OF
another heavy fabric-faille. A lovely
green blue silk is chosen for it. The

you have a pretty set.
FASHIONS IN BRIEF

Vanity cases of metal brocade in
Chinese patterns are chic.
Suits of striped wooden fabrics are
trimmed with wool fringe.
Neckwear for next season is built
along waistcoat lines to very large
extent.
Hatpins with pendent tops in Jew
eled effects are smart accessories to
the hat.
Long snakes in shaded green Sc
gums are found in the evening cos
tune covering few inches of what
the absence of sleeve leaves bare.
For fall, simplicity will dominate
the evening gown, more elaborate gar
ments not coming into their own until
the season for formal entertaining
The simple and inexpensive little
dance frock will usually be found a
good early season investment.

USE FOR THE REMNANTS OF WOLFE
Scraps of Fabrics May Be Effectively
Developed Into Dresser Scarf
and Pincushion.

If you are fortunate to have any
pieces of wolfe you can utilize them
by making a beautiful dresser scarf
and pincushion at very little cost. For
the cover take piece of wolfe and
measure for a four-inch hem on all
four sides. Pull about four threads
each way and hemstitch. Edge this
with a crochet lace or any lace that
YOU wish. The center may be en-
broidered and, of course. looks better

one in each corner. Do it in the colors
to match the room.
Next paste a lining of thin silk of
any desired shade to the under side
and finish with small stitches and the
cover is finished. The pincushion may
be made in any desired shape and
lined with the same material as used
for the cover. Edge the cushion with

TOOK TRIP AND SIS
DOWN RIVER IN APRIL.

Zack Wright took a trip down
the river last April
He said nothing at all to his
wife about going and, according to
the evidence, he said nothing to
Mary Bowman. his landlady. either.
Mary was very much interested
in this trip. Zack took SIS of hers
with him without asking permis-
sion.
Mary had saved this money for a
visit to the dentist. 1t hurts to
have to give money to a dentist,
but it hurts worse to have the
money extracted by someone not a
dentist.
Zack denied stealing the money,
but Mary insisted that he disap-
peared the same day the money did.
Therefore. she reasoned, it must
have been Zack who took it. But
he insisted that he knew nothing
about the missing money until his
wife wrote him about 1t.
1t does not require a Sherlock
Holmes to deduce that Mary was
right in assuming that there was
some connection between Zack's
sudden disappearance. the loss of
the money and his prolonged ah-
sence.
Heretofore. Mary stated, Zack
had never stayed out all night be-
fore.
The court sent him back down to
the river for thirty days. He will
be guest of the government this
time instead of his folks.

Curtis Walker
ofGiants Tells
Art of Bases
By CURTIS WALKER.
OF the New York National
League Club.

1t is better, in most cases, to
try to steal to third base than
il is to second.
Pitchers seldom attempt to
throw to second because they
must make a turn to get the
ball to the base. 1t is not 50
difficult for him to get il to first.
This fact makes IL easier for
runner to lead off second than
first base.
When a catcher sees a man
stealing off first he has little
difficulty in throwing to that
base, for it is on his right side.
Practice sliding.
While il isn't much harder for
him to throw to third, it does
take a second or so longer, gen.
orally. because he must turn
slightly.
Sliding is something that can
be learned through practice.
Practice to see how fast you can
slide and how far away from the
base you should start so you
will not go over it.
Take care not to slide over
the base, but slide into it good
and hard.
BE Timber when Sliding.
When you slide do it in such
a position that you can get up
quickly after you have touched
the bag and head for the next
base if you have the opportun-
ity.
1t Is a good idea to slide even
when you don't have to. It's a
good practice. Besides, il re-
lieves the muscles of the strain
that is placed upon them by
stopping quickly in an upright
poston.
Never side into a base with
your legs stiff. Be timber. But
just as soon as you touch the
