Lace Skirt With Taffeta Bodice Among
FaVorites That Have Appeared
This Season.

A lace skirt with a taffeta bodice is
among the frocks that have made their
appearances at dances. There was
full lace skirt, in cream color, and
bodice of mauve taffeta, that were
most interesting as a combination for
an evening frock. Then there was one
with a skirt made in three tiers OF
black lace flounces, with darted and
fitted bodice of black taffeta. To be
sure, this was worn by girl whose
hair was a brilliant red, so that moth
ing was taken from its youthfulness, as
the hair supplied the necessary note of
color and sparkle.
The slippers and stockings of the
present season are worthy of mention
more so than they have ever been
before. They are taking a place OF
prominence that has not been granted
them for long, long time. Indeed
sometimes they are the sole trimming
and note of color, and for this reason
they must be regarded with reverence,
even with awe.
Silver slippers and those made OF
cloth of gold are famous from fairy
tale days, to be sure, but now they
have stepped into real life with ven
geance. Hardly twinkling foot but
shows the CLINT of precious metal about
its toes. And there are slippers made
of brilliant brocades-even sandals,
and those with heels that are given
every appearance of veritable sandal.

On the other hand, Senator Capper

among other things:
Here, Mr.. President, is the true
reason why we have a group of men
in congress sometimes called the farm
bloc. Our entire business structure
rests upon the land. The farmer not

a class our best customer. Without

under Peking or else are in open de-

coats, and many of the new furs in

Among the new furs is one in shades

Romance of the Red Cross Building

coin issued his call for $1,000 vol
unteers, two young men, Francis
Barlow and James A. Scrymser, en-
listed in the engineer corps of the
Twelfth New York. At Antietam Ser
geant Barlow was badly wounded, and
his wife, a member of the sanitary
commission, of which the American
Red Cross is a lineal descendant, went
to the battle front that she might be
at his side to nurse him. At Gettys-
burg Sergeant Barlow again was
wounded, and this. time was left be-
hind Confederate lines. At daybreak
one morning, in spite of watchfll SEN
tries, she succeeded in reaching her
wounded husband and in remaining
with him until he recovered. A third
time the soldier was wounded and
once more, this time in a Washington
hospital, Mrs. Barlow nursed him back
to life.
This brave and faithful woman died
in 1854, victim of typhus contracted
in her untiring labors among the sick
and wounded fighting men. To the
heart-broken husband she typified the
splendid spirit of American women in
