embroidery is In seif-color. Nearly
always there Is q gleam of silver or
gold thread in these embrOideries, or
the introduction of little soft con-
Trusting color sparingly used. The
skirt in this model is very practical
wide enough for comfort-and plain.
1t makes a fine background for a
handsome sash of satin, bordered with
n looped fringe. The coat fastens
only at the neck, revealing a frilly
blouse beneath. 1t is youthful,
springtime model, open Mt the throat
and cool looking.
The suit at the right of the picture
will delight those who love trim,
straight lines; it hardly acknowledges
a curve and emphasizes this fact with
buttons that extend to the top of the
standing collar. Flaring sleeves, EN-
broidery about the arms-eye. and
large patch pockets that extend below
the bottom of the coat, are all note
worthy, good points in the smart style
of this model.

handsome navy veil. A lovely dress
hat at the left has a body of black
hair-braid with rows of narrow cello
phane applied and flange of malines
about the graceful brim. wreath
of fine flowers and a generous sash of
French blue ribbon completes a hat
that every woman loves. A similar
style below, of navy hair-braid and
cellophane with wreath of old blue
peoples, fulfllls the mission of a less
picturesque but equally pleasing demi-
dress hat which is equal to many oc-
caslons. Black and brown are great
favorites and the refinement of lace
and malines in both colors Is an allure
ment that designers make the most of.

in a touring car, which was lying
at the side of the road. He was
blindfolded with handkerchief and
gagged. The men in the touring car
threatened to shoot him if he raised
any commotion. 1t is not known

tiors Mrs. Eggers yesterday went to

ORDER RE VIEW
Of LIQUOR Law
ConstitutionaIity of the New
State Act to be Tested in
the Supreme Court.
IBy Evening News corresponcent.1

TRENTON, May 13-An order to
review the constitutionality of new
prohibition enforcement act, which
went into effect april 80, has been
Milturn.
This is believed to be the first
suit to test the validity of new en-
fcrcement act.
Hyman Cantor, of Passaic. who
was arrested as violator of this
act, has instituted it. Cantor was
taken into custody may 5th by Capt
of Detectives Benjamin j. Turner
of Passaic, and was brought before
County Judge Watson charged with
the unlawful and wilful possession
of a still and compounds, intended
for the unlawful manufacture and
sale of intoxicating liquors.
The alleged violator entered a
ed a trial by jury, which was de-
MED.
Appeal of the case to the supreme
court was then made by Cantor's
counsel alleging that the 1921 law
was Illegal due to the fact that it
denies the right of trial by jury
He further contended that the pack
ages taken by the police of Passaic
city were against the constitution
in that an illegel raid and seizure
of property located in the defend
ants home was made. Another
ground on which Cantor seeks to
nullify the legislation is that the
law is not an amendment or sup
plement to the "disorderly persons
act' and that his Office constitutes
a common or publim nuisance and
therefore entities him to trial by
Jury.

Mrs. Eggars said was the picture OF
Mr.. Siver was two or three years
old and a cripple. being treated for
a weak spine by DR.. Ezra Good with
offices in the Raritan building. The
woman. according to Mrs. Eggers,
was a blond. about twenty-six or
twenty-seven years old.
Silver and the woman often told
Mrs. Eggers of the handsome home
they had in New Brunswick and
when they gave up the rooms they
were going to the New Brunswick
home to live. Mrs. Eggers asked
the woman to write and let her know
how the child was getting along. but
she has never heard from her.
During the three weeks that Silver
and the woman occupied the rooms,
Silver never stayed over night but
always said he would go to their
New Brunswick home.
About three months ago Mrs. Eg-
gers said, Siver brought Miss Adele
GoUin to her house and desired to
rent a room for the girl. She re-
fused to rent the room to him, tell
ing him that all were taken. Silver
and Miss Gouin stayed at the house
for about fifteen or twenty min
utes, during which time Mrs. Eggers
and Siver discussed various topics.
Among the questions Mrs. Eggers
asked was how his wife and crippled
child were getting along. Silver pass
ed the question without making any
direct answer. The child was call
ed Teddy Silver.
