JUDGING from the examples now on
y exhibition, of one-piece frocks for
fall, we may prophesy season in
which these dresses will follow the
lines of the natural figure. 1t would
be more accurate to- say that they
adjust themselves to it easily and
gracefully in way that is flattering
to all figures. Many of them are Of
the straight line type. showing very
slight definition of the waistline which
they contriye to make a little long.
Others have bodices bloused, over Cir
dies, all around and still others are
bloused at the front and hang
straight at the back in the fashion of
"paletot." which extends below the
waistlfne.
Box and side plaitings are making
themselves very useful in one-piece
frocks, both in suit-frocks like that
at the left of the picture and in
dresses that do not simulate suit.
Some of the smartest of the suit
frocks have Jackets, capes or other

EVEN SENATORS DON'T RULE
Wife of Eighty-Two-Year-old olive
One" NAKED Sarcastic at Hubbys
Expense, the Morning After.

The story is still told in chuckle
circle in Washington, where old GRO
MES get together, of the night when
E. w. Pettus, senator from Alabama,
then eighty-two years old, stayed out
too late.
The day after the escapade the sem
ate was droning along and Mr.. Nc
Cumber was making speech that
was we'll studded with statistics and
entirely denuded of thrills. The SEN
ators drifted into the cloak rooms.
Only Senator Pettus remained. Sud
denly his shoulders were seen to be-
gin to shake with mirth, and some
observer went over to learn what, in
so dry speech, could have made him
laugh. s
He said he had played poker with
the Joe Cannon crowd the night be-
fore and when the hour of midnight
arrived, the time at which Mrs. Pet
tus required his presence at home, he
had all the blue chips and could not
gracefully get away. So he played
till three o'clock.
When he got home he pulled off his
shoes at the front door, slipped into
his room, undressed in the dark and
sought to gofto bed. Mrs. Pettus, I'M.
fortunately, had cast anchor in the
exact middle of the bed. So he be-
slowed himself most intentionally
on the edge and courted Morpheus in
vain.
Just at dawn Mrs. Pettus awOke.
The senator pretended that he was
sleeping. She got up on her elbow
and looked at her partner for so years
in the increasing light. Instantly she
detected his discomfort.
"Mr. Pettus," said she, "you would
rest at greater ease if you would take

such procedure, but she couldn't
help 1t.
'sWhy don't you ever, come to see
me?" she asked him. Il said we ought
to remain away from each other for
a while, but / didn't mean forever"
Harvey appeared his same old self.
"I'll see you tonight-if you haven't
another engagement" he said.
Florence had no other engagement
and Harvey called He got right to
business at the start.
II love you, Florence, and I want
you," he told her, "but I'm tired of
never knowing where / am at. II 1
can't have you all to myself / won't
have you at all"
"You mean" she said very sweet
ly-and meekly.
II mean that am proposing to you
again, for the last time If you say
yes, well and good. 1t will make me-
happy. If your answer is no I'll be
unhappy, but I'll never bother you
again. But If you accept me all this
tact and diplomacy stuff of yours has
got to stop. How about it?'
Florence was silent for moment.
When she spoke there were hints OF
tears in her eyes.
ut suits me, Harvey" she told him.
'I'll marry you, and in the meantime
Pm yours alone. I'll never be mean
again, and I'll never keep you guess
ing. You can depend on me all the
time"
When Harvey left her that night he
was far happier than he ever had
been before. He whistled gay tune
as he walked home under stars gleam-
ing in a deep blue sky. He went to
his room and sat for long time gaz-
ing at picture Of Florence and smil-
ing. 1t was a smile Of triumph as well
as happiness.
Before retiring he opened a drawer
of his dresser and brought forth
paper-covered book.
"This Arabella Anderson has the
right DOPE" he murmured. "Only she
forgot to mention that it works both
ways. Maybe she didn't know 1t when
she wrote this Keep Them Guessing
volume"

frames, whose outlines are more or
less definitely followed, crowns are
soft, or at any rate soft looking, even
in blocked shapes. A duvetyn hat at
the upper left of the group is good ex-
ample, with a narrow braid that has
the effect of embroidery, making an
irregular scroll over it. A pin with
dangling head, studded with rhine
stones, is thrust in the coronet at the
right side. The lovely velvet hat at
the right follows the lines of a similar
shape more vaguely, and has rosettes
of narrow cire ribbon set in a row at
each side. THE wide brimmed Bre-
ton sailor draped with duvetyn is
faced with satin elaborated with
braid. Beads and narrow ribbon
cover the coronet of the round velvet
turban, with a flower and leaf design.
The felt shape, with oyerbrim, which
may be either velvet or duvetyn, makes
a fine background for the wreath of
chenille flowers applied to its crown.

sH~HE story of millinery for fall and
i winter is going TO be interesting,
not to say exciting. Its opening chap
ter, now being written in hats for
early fall, Is fascinating, introducing
US to new arrivals in the realm of
fabrics and trimmings, and intriguing
us by the exhaustless ingenuity Of de-
signers. Starting with fabrics-duve-
tyn and similar cloths, satin, velvet,
both plain and panne, are the old ia
miliar favorites that make a fOunda-
ton or a background for new kinds
of brOcade and new kinds of en-
broidery net; brocades that look like
cut-out work, nets that look like
metallic embroidery on heavy fabrics
over which they are posed.
For trimmings, the designer looks to
many things, beads of the bugle and
seed varieties and larger wooden
beads. soutache braid, narrow ribbons,
feathers, silk embroidery and stitch
cry. And the public, it appears, puts
a premium on originality in the use
and combination of all these.
AS may be gathered from the hats
that appear in the group above. hats
are far from simple, most Of them
agtfully made by draping fabrics over

MR.. BOWSER''S
WITCHHAZEL
And Mrs. Bowser's Flying
SI Machine.
BY M. QUAD.
BY M. QUAE

20. 1921. by Mcclure Newspaper syndicate.)
1t was day previous to Mrs. Bow
ser's birthday. There had come into
Mr.. Bowser's office, a. sharp-featured,
keen-looking man, who gave his name
as Mr.. Gordon. He was a practical
chemist, and was connected with a
wholesale drug manufacturer. He
wanted to go in business for himself
or with a partner who had money and
energy. lie had heard of Mr.. Bowser
and had called to talk business.
One of the great money-makers for
the drug house, was witchhazel. 1t re-
turned over 100 per cent profit. Mr..
Gordon wanted to go into the manu-
facture of witchhazel. 1t would make
q couple Of men niliionaires in five
years. The world was not half sup
piled. The liquid was a dollar pint
and still going up. He had a talk
with Mr.. Bowser for two long hours,
and he satisfied him that the oppor-
tunity of his life had come to him. 1t
beat bookkeeping and pig-raising all
to pieces.
At five o'clock Mr.. Bowser started
home, as usual. He was placid and
satisfied with the world. He looked
around him at the stores and offices,
and calculated that he could buy them
all, In two years. Two or three Of his
fellow passengers, on the car, stepped
on his toes, and the conductor took
fifty cents from him and forgot to
make the change. Nothing irritated
Mr.. Bowser, however He smiled, as
he entered the hall of his house, and
that smile warned Mrs. Bowser that
he had something up his sleeve. She
said nothing, however,. and after din
ner he suddenly began:
"Mrs. Bowser, do you know that to-
morrow is your birthday as5t
Eyes, did not forget that" she re-
piled.
''You have been dear, good wife to
me and am glad that l have pre-
pared surprise for you. 1t isn't a
necklace of diamonds or pearls, but
that will come little later"
ut was good of you to remember"
she murmured.
81 have always remembered and al
ways shall. You have stood by me as
a true wife should. Let me ask you,
If you know a liquid called witch
hazel?"

ried' ''""
Eyes, we have. 1t is a great thing

1t is one dollar pint, my dear wife,
and they make profit of one hundred
per cent. There is an increasing de-
mand for it and it will probably go to
a dollar and half a pint"
"But what does all this talk mean?"
asked Mrs. Bowser. Gs
1T means, that am going into the
