The white glace gloves pictured are
all that such gloves should be, to
please Madam Mode this season. Like
all other items of dress, gloves are
richly embroidered now and some-
times very ornate stitchery decorates
the backs-and in some instances ap-
pliques or inserts of kid in contrasting
color are added to the embroidery.
But these very ornate gloves are for
women who adore conspicuous effects
in dress. Be it always remembered
that a glove is richest and most ad-
mirable when it is of beautiful ma
teria1 and perfect fit, but has no gaudy
pattern to attract the eye.

,eople frankly declare they hate
cloves. But who mas the courage
MA o go without them? Gloves are
PROBABLY the most formal item OF cos
tune. In most cases they are not re-
CURED in any way to protect the hands
from hardships or from cold and are
therefore entirely artificial accessories
of the toilette; but so securely IS the
glove custom established. so much
part of the conventions are gloves
that ii would take a very brave soul
to break through the custom and lg-
more the convention.
No matter how smart the lines OF
your new tailored suit and how en-
chanting your new hat. you would be
extremely uncomfortable appearing in
this fresh and seasonable toggery
e-handed. And imagine walking
down the avenue in a handsome SILK
wrap and furs, with feathered hat and
soft drapery of veil-and ungloyed
hands! You would look all wrong
and YOU wouId feel all wrong and
would be ashamed to meet an ac-
quaintance. The glove is the small
tyrant of costume and though it gives
most people a rest from its tyranny
during the care-free months of sum-
mer with the first breath OF autumn
its power is again established and IN

 nois farmer. who also operates in
 Connecticut, and represents farmers
 there.
 Mir. colcoid attends the sales at the stock yard, keeping on the look out for old steers which would not be very good as beef cattle but
 which are usable as work cattle These he buys and sends back to Connecticut where they are auctioned off To farmers. owing to the con
 dition of the hilly country he states that they are the most practical mo- tive power for pulling blows and farm machines.
 Mir. Colcoids peculiar mission has attracted the attention of many farm CTS who come into the yards with stock and he has been the butt of tests at the old-fashioned means used back east when the west is turning rapidly to mortorized farm machin cry In reply to these humorous re-
 marks he said:
 You know Connecticut farmers arc little old-fashioned. It is a com mon practice among these Yankee farmers in the old New England states to cut grain by hand and to blow with team of oxen.

 Miss Clayton is at her best as the girl of beauty and position, but without any money. It is the tyne of role which fits her perfectly, critics say.
 sham is a society comedy---witl 8 plot--that shows the star at her best. It is different from "Rosanne Osanne." different from "The Lad der of Lies" or Crooked Streets" It presents Miss Clayton in fine char. acterization which opens new and unsuspected angles for clever comedy interpretation.
 The universal existence of debtors and creditors, and the equally uni versal dislike of "deadbeats" should make the adventures of Katherine Van Riper, portrayed by Miss Clay ton, a source of real entertainment to those who match her attempts at gentle grating. And in like manner will she win sympathy at the finish
