Nine. Dalai, the very
pretty wife Of the Minister
Of Persia, who takes such a
keen interest in things
American and who loves
parties, attended the Chrys-
anthemum Show the other
day.
The brown wool suit she
wore was vastly becoming,
the coat, a three quarter
length model, fitted closely
and was untrimmed. Her
brown felt hat, which had a
narrow brim, was trimmed
with flat bows of cherry
colored ribbon, and a wide
sable scarf completed the
very lovely picture she
made.

Immediately. in spite OF the
high wind which made it bad

over Melbourne farm. the fox
went to ground. They then
drew the Slater and Fletcher
farms, and got up several
foxes.
They love to come out-these
wise old foxes-and show them
selves when they know the
hounds find it hard to trail
them. We saw several run
ming around in every direction.
On the Josh Fletcher farm
they started the second fox,
and had a good fast run back
over that place, Slater's, Wei
bourne and Metcalf's, where
they lost again, and then the
hounds were taken in as it
was l p. m. and the wind had
gotten too high to start again.
There were several cars fol-
lowing the road to see what
they could of the run, show
ing the keen interest that non

sport.

living room, a table or similar
piece of furniture forms the
center of each little group of
furniture. A rather large
table placed against the wall.
or near the fireplace may have
chairs thanking it, and a lamp
on the table that will give
light for readers in both chairs.
To Hold Necessities
Each comfortable chair or
davenport must have a table
beside it for lamp, ashtrays or
books. Sofas usually have a
table at each end, unless some
other piece of furniture is near
enough to hold the small con-
veniences.
A coffee table has become al
most an essential in every liv-
ing room. A table large enough
to hold a tea tray is a happy
addition too. And small tables
to hold teacupS or glasses are
nice to have if you do much en-
tertaining. A nest of them is a
grand idea if you haven't many
small tables.
For Each Chair
The pictures we're showing
today give you a good idea of
how tables should be placed
for the most convenience and
comfort to all who use the
room. In the room picture,
there is a coffee table before
the sofa, and a table at the
end. The easy chair shown has
an end table that is also a
small bookcase.
The other pictures show the
correct relation of odd tables
and chairs, always placed close
enough so that you can put
your book, your cigarettes,
your teacup on the table, when
you're through with them. One
table may be placed between
two chairs, or there may be a
small table for each chair or
sofa.

New Trends in Mems Clothes
For Autumn

Double-breasted suits will be
better than ever. They are cut
rather long as to jacket, nipped
in slightly about the body, and
rely on their cut rather than
on padding for that broad
ShoUldered look which they give
a man.
The ngle-breasted suit with
notched lapel will be seen in
great numbers too, as it seems
to be here forever. Two-button
coats will be worn by the great
majority of conservative men,
though some others who want
change will have three but
tons on their coats.
COl0rs Prominent
Colors will be more proml-
nent than ever, and patterns
will loom large. Whole suits
will be worn for business, how
ever, and odd coats and trouS-
ers reserved for the country.
Plaids, stripes. checks, herring
bone weaves and plain colorS
will all be good, and when col
ors are plain they will endeavor
to be a little unusual.
From present indications,
Well-dresSed men will be wear
ing a great deal of brown.
Brown and tan plaids will be
smart, and even brown over
plaided with another color,

This frock combines two
things beloved of the matron-
good lines and a bit of becom-
ing white at the neck. 1t will
be found a stunning garment
whether you make it of dotted
satin, as shown in the sketch,
or of plain silk or wool. The
skirt with its panel front and
back, moldS the hips beauti-
fully and the detail of the
sleeve is delightful. AS you
have no doubt observed, it
boasts something new in the
way of jabots-a SlaShed af-
fair which falls in graceful and
flattering lines. And not least
of it's charms is the fact that
the frock is easy to make and
the jabots detachable.

Readers of The Gazette are invited to
make free use of this column to express
their ideas. Discussions of sectarian re-
ligious differences are barred. Letters
must be written on one side of the
paper only, and they must be accom-
panied in every case by the name and
address of the writer, although these
need not be published Letters should
be brief and must be truthful and free
from libel.
What qualifications, if any, do you,
as voter require of a person run
ming for a county office? Should
there be some?
For instance, county commission
er is one of board of five who has
the spending of approximately $780,
600 year. Should we or should we
not as taxpayers be interested in the
election of the best qualified man for
commissioner from our district?
If we as taxpayers could have our
county and state put on a salary
basis, cut out the fee system and the
expense account, it would be long
step in the right direction. Think of
it before election.
