60 appropriately with dresses of more
delicate materials.
Wrist-length gloves and short
sleeved dresses continue to be accept
able contraries among autumn fash
ions. Twelve-button gloves in French
suede, kid, and fabric will be very
popular this winter.
For the business woman, there are
new qualities and varieties of a glove
that was created for time-saving pur-
poses. 1t has three names-the slip
on, the pull-on and the Biarritz glove,
the last name coming from the French
town where the fabric is manufac-
tured. OF gauntlet length, without
snaps or straps, this glove has flare
sufficiently wide to take in medium
sized coat cuff and wrist sufficiently
narrow to wrinkle not too loosely. The
slip-on glove is available in French
kid, suede, buckskin, doeskin and
channels, besides an inexpensive model
in fabric.
While the novelty gloves are called
for quite as frequently as ever, the
novelties, on the whole, are of less
conspicuous nature. a few elaborate
styles in better gloves for those who
prefer them can be bought at some
of the stores, and some of these, pro-
vided the costume and occasion war
rant, are very pleasing. Embroidered,
hand-painted and stenciled cuff de-
signs are found in this group. One
pair of old-ivory- colored French kid,
with turn-back cuffs of navy-blue
MORE silk, with tiny flowers hand
painted in old rose, will probably APP
peal to those who like styles that are
ornate and yet tasteful.

Writer Master of the Vituperative Art

Mail, however, D. B. Wyndham Lewis,
who is given the title Of humorist by
some literary critics, let himself go.
He was writing about what he
found good to read when it rains in

what he does not read seems to con-
stitute the strongest array of adjec-
tives and real vituperation noticed for
some time. Here is the paragraph:

Bed Time for Elowsra

Different flowers have different
closing times. The common water
lily retires about four o'clock in the
afternoon, the daisy and buttercup
much later in the evening. Tulips and
cr0cuses. being susceptible to climat-
ic changes. go to bed as soon as the
heat of the day II over and the eve
ming chill sets In. The goats beard,
something like dandelion. and grow
ing In tall grass. shuts up its flowers
at noon, and does not open them again
till the next morning. For this reason
the flower is sometimes called "John-
gO-to-bed-at-noon." The scarlet PIN,
pernel. found In most British corn
fields. shuts its petals when the sky
gets dark and cloudy. Thus, II has
earned for itself the name Of "Shep-
herds Weather Glass"

USE NEWSPAPERS FOR WALLS
Two thousand Tons Shipped From
Europe in Year-HslPs Keep
vermin From Houses.

The Chinese, ii is thought, are the
greatest Of all consumers Of old news
papers. The official returns Of the Gus.
tomhouse at Newchang show that that
port alone, during the year for which
figures are available, received approx
imately 1000 tons OF old European
newspapers valued at $4,000.
1t is not at first easy to imagine 20
what use SO much obsolete news can
be put. 1t is, however, ascertained
that the middle class Chinese prefer
newspaper to native wall paper as q
covering for their walls. 1t has q
greater power Of resistance and affords
more effective barrier to the inva-
sions of. the vermin that infest CHI
nese houses, often driving out the in
mates.
Moreover, the Chinese are experts al
cutting out Of newspapers waistcoats
which they wear next to the SKIN.
These paper waistcoats are said to be
the best possible protection against q
sudden "cold snap" In view Of these
admirable uses to which European
newspapers may be put, 1t is not sur
prising to learn that the imports con-
stantly show increase In weight.
It should be added, however. that
the value of the import has declined.
This fact Is explained by the rapid de-
velopment Of the native newspaper
press that has occurred during the last
few years. - .z
