Dcanc is an experienced newspaper

NEW PURSES ARE ELABORATE
Precious Metals and Real Jewels
often Used in Working Out
Novelty Mountings.

Great extravaganza is manifested
In the purses of today. The bagrnaker
must in way rival the jeweler. be-
cause it is in the small shops devoted
to the sale of high-class jewelry that
one finds the most beautiful specimens
Of handbags Precious metals and
real jewels are often used in working
out novelty mountings, and other cost
ly materials, such as tOrtoise-shell,
amber, ivory and semi-precious stones
are utilized for this purpose. In the
more practical purses marcasite trim
mings are used In prOfusion.
Square mountings of real tortoise
shell are used on silk bags which are
ornamented with bril'iants. A mono
gram inset with glistening stones.
often real rose diamonds, is used on
the more expensive ones. With such
an elaborate trimming the bag is de-
murely fashioned of black or navy
faille.

AT LEAST SHE MADE ATTEMPT 7
But Probably Girl Is More Than Ever
Convinced Public Speaking Is
Not Her Forte.

My cousin had always been a most
hmid girl, finding it difficult to say
much even before home folks, let alone
strangers.
She was q member Of church So
ciety. One of the rules was that each
member must take some part in the
meetings. She had tried and tried, but
could never get her courage up at the
last minute.
Finally, the leader, to help her out
gave her some Scripture verses to read
They read as follows: "And bring
hither the fatted calf and kill it."
Maize started the verse, and to her
utter dismay, found herself saying
"And bring hither the Gated half and
fin It."
She could read no further and sal

Had You Ever Noticed It7

That nature is full of simple facts
Of scientific importance yet awaiting
notice by open eyes and minds Is
shown by the achievement Of q Dutch
schoolboy named Van Erpecum, who,
during a lesson in physics, given IN
the high school at Batavia, called Or.
Van Deventer's attention to the fact
that water in a glass filled to the
brim with water and floating ice does
not flow over as the ice melts. In fact.
no change Of level whatever occurs.
DR.. Van Deventer communicated
this observation to Professors Van der
Walls and Zeeman, who thought 1t OF
sufficient Importance to be placed be-
fore the Royal Academy Of Amster-
dam. 1t is proposed to call the phenom-
enon the claw of the permanent level"

IN EVENING Wear
Drapery Gives important Touch
to Formal Apparel.
Exquisite Brocades Of Silver and Gold
and Vivid Colors Are Used for
Decorations.

For the evening dress there is moth
perry, asserts a fashion authority. The
materials are as handsome as any fab
RIGS which have made their debut from
antique times until modern ones. There
are exquisite brOcades of silver and
gold and vivid colors. OF course they
cost fortune per yard, but then
very few yards Of them will make the
gown, and there need be not the slight
est degree of trimming. In the design
IF the fabric itself there is quite
enough to make the gown notable and
there need not be the slightest trim
ming. The fact is that trimming would
spoil the effect and that anything the
least fancy added to the plain straight
lines Of the gorgeous material would
be superfiuous addition.
Many of the girdles for evening
gowns are made with motif over the
stomach. Some of them are made In
rOunder, fuller motifs, of compost
ton of many and various colored flow
ers fashioned from the cOlOred ribbons.
Then, instead of streamers of beads,
there are streamers of the various col
ors of ribbons that hang from the
motif of flowers. In any case these
motifs and the streamers which hang
from them are the only decorations
which the gown boasts, but the colors
are so artistically and practically
chosen that they constitute the decora-
ton without any other help.
Under the modern method of dress
ing everything is done to make the
trimming of the gown harmonize with
the earrings and the stockings and the
slippers and. perhaps. scarf or any
other extraneous decoration which Is
used as part of the costume. These
extra bits are never put on, regardless
of the gown and its trimmings, but
they are. on the contrary, harmOnfzed
with the gown as 1t exists and, in the
end, they are able to carry out the
effect of that gown In such manner

that they help materially to produce
the general effect.
1t is the same way with the straps
over the shoulders. Most every dinner
or evening gown has pair or at least
one Of these straps, and although the
space occupied by that bit OF decora-
ton is extremely small, still 1t serves
to accentuate the character of the
gown in such a way that the small Dit
Of trimming becomes pertinent part
of the design as whole.

There is vogue at the moment for

MAN IS FINED
 sl65 ON FOUR LIQUOR COUNTS
J. E. Sonney is Given Fines for Transporting Liquor,
 Drunkenness, and
 Two Other Charges.

One hundred dollars for trans porting liquor, fifty dollars for giv- ing liquor to a minor, ten dollars for public drunkenness and five dollars for disturbing the peace total . one, hundred and sixty-five dollars plus the costs. Thus did j.. F. Sonney of the Marmaduke section of the county feel the land slip from under his feet before a jury in the court of Esq. A. B. Hays Saturday afternoon when his trial on the above mentioned four charges was held at the Court house. The state, represented by Deputy Prosecuting Attorney John T. Batten, had offer ed to permit the man to plead gull ty on three charges. This offer being refused, the trial proceeded and the four fines resulted.
 The charges grew out of fishing party given by Sonney on Thursday, July 27, at Kirby's hole. Witnesses testified that on their way home, Sonney and Claud Gore were drunk and that Sonney's knees were play
 ing most joyful tune as he stood in the wagon driving at a .break- neck speed and shouting at the top of his voice. A few minor incidents occurred and one charge after an other piled up against the defend ant. f
 The charges of transporting li- quor, public drunkenness and dis turbing the peace followed in quick succession but the one of giving li- ouor to a minor was not so easy. Sonneys boy did not appear in court being in St. Louis, it is re- ported Of the other three boys, Claud Core, who was said to have been drunk at the time of the oc- eurronce was the only one to admit having been in such a state and that the liquor was given to him by Some. This caused Sonney to re- ceive another fine, this time for fifty dollars. The other boys re- fused to testify against Sonney to the same effect However, MT. Sonney probably figured the four charges were enough and that it was not considered necessary to add to any one of them. The total at the end of the afternoons skir- mish found MT. Sonney facing a bill of one hundred and sixty-five dollars, plus the costs.
 The trial was replete with many unique and peculiar angles by which it was endeavored to escape the final punishment, according to those who heard the evidence.
