IN FALL FASHIONS
Skirts Straight and Nine Inches

If there is any more delightful diver
sion for a hot summer day than specu-
lating on winter styles the feminine
mind has not found it. Fortunately
enough, observes Il fashion correspond
ant. authentic information has flOated
in from fashion centers to give form
and color to wardrobe planning.
The Thermometers never scared so
high that Il woman could not be pleas
ant as she pictures herself in a new
fall suit cut on the latest lines. Lines,
you see, for there are three lengths
in new suit coats, the hip length coat,
the finger tip length and the very long
coat. The lines of the long coats are
ms graceful as one could wish, often
deep reverS extending almost to the
waistline give Il decorative touch to
the new suit. Then there is the very
long coat made with a long waistline,
blOused a bit, perhaps, and buttoned
straight up the chin, for the swathed
neck line in suits is full of promise.
Skirts are straight, wide enough
to permit the wearer to walk comfort

Metal and Paper Money.

Only gold coins are worth their face

at the world rate of $20.67 an ounce.
Silver and other coins do not have
metal in them that equals their face

an over issue of paper currency, as
has generally occurred in European
countries, and by the demand for
American dollars in bills of exchange

AMUSED HIS NAVAL HOSTS
Lawmaker Eminently Justified His
Reputation as Man of Some
Eccentric Doings.

One of the new members of the
house of representatives, who is re-
garded as a somewhat eccentric per-
son, was a continual source of aston
ishment aboard a transport on her trip
to the bomb-dropping experiments off
the Virginia capes. Examining an in
strument aboard the vessel, and being
informed it was a range finder, he in
quired how far it would shoot. Be-
ing loaned a telescope to make bet
ter examination of the battleship Iowa,
he looked through the big end instead
of the little one and then complained
he could not see anything. He fol-
lowed this with a denunciation of a
naval policy which permitted the pur-
chase of such useless things.
But the thing that interested some
cf his colleagues most was the fact
that he brought no baggage aboard, not
even a toothbrush, SO far as anybody
could find out.
"Why should 1 bring any baggage?
he asked. "We're only going to be gone
four days aren't e?"-Brooklyn Eagle

Guernsey alas, is spoiled, from
scenic standpoint, by miles of green
houses and acres of quarries. But its
cliffs and bays are magnificent, and
Moulin Huet is perhaps the most love-
ly spot in the islands. There are still
to be found some wooden walks and
lanes, old stone walls and arched gate
ways, which are as yet unmarried by
the utilitarian demands Of modern ag-
riculture and industry.

The lesser islands, Alderney, Sark

Dotted swiss hats are made over
black taffeta foundatiOns-with white
dotted swiss.
Rhinestone buttons on the tight,
wrinkled bodices of some of the new
frocks are an interesting detail.
There are so many interesting fab
RIGS, among them one called tissue
bingham. 1t really looks like ging-
ham, but it is very thin and sheer
with gingham patterns.
Dotted batiste is one of the smart
fabrics for summer frOcks. The dots
are big, machine embroidered, and
usually in a bright color. Frequent
ly the batiste is of ecru.
Some of the exceedingly smart
midsummer hats are made of black
moire silk mounted on stiff frames.
They haze a welcome look for Sc
verify when worn with light frOcks.
The taffeta evening frOck with the
taffeta wrap to match is worn much
by young women this season. One
finds the skirts of the frocks quite full
and not too short, capiike sleeves and
touch of ribbon flower somewhere.
A good many sport coats are made
without buttons and are held together
simply by a belt. Sometimes the belt
buttons, sometimes it ties in a knot
and sometimes there isn't even a belt
but the coat hangs loose and open.
Very attractive handbags are made
of silk, with little landscapes ant
groups of figures made of painted
bone used as trimming. These are

Low Flat Heels.

The comfort of the low heel in walk
ing has created a decided vogue for
oxfords with heels, not of the French
type. but broad and fiat. The dressier
pumps. although showing three-strap
effects and cut-out designs, will be of
a similar design. Patent leather is
considered very smart at present.
