S PARIS FAD

s MADE BUSINESS OF MURDER

Spanish Shoulder Decoration Attracts Attention to Gown.

Ncted Dressmaker Stresses the Nipponese Note in Exquisite Out fit for Formal Wear. The Spanish shawl has brought out n i-ntirdy new type of evening drcs.s which is nothing more than a simple crepe de chine, low neck, sleeveless robe which matches the shawl in color. There Ii nothing more ovely being worn in all Paris at tiie present time, says a writer in the New York Tribune, than this type of dress, a fad, as it were, among chic women who wish to attract attention by their striking clothes. When wearing such a costume one looks like a 'jrilllanthued tropical flower or a bird of rare T I u in age. Recently at a fashionable restaurant in Paris n charming outfit of this kind was seen. A beautiful red-haired girl wore it vivid empire green crepe de chine drrss and Spanish shawl. The shawl was embroidered in onorrnous peonies in dahli'i shades, covering a range from the beautiful dahlia pinks down to a deep clematis blue. This, In contrast with the vivid green of the foundation, made Indeed a brilliant spot of color. The woman wore a chain of silver beads, braided through her auburn tresses. Another restaurant gown in burnt orange crepe de chine had an extremely low neck, sleeveless bodice and draped skirt. It was entirely without trimming' and had a matching Spanish shawl, this embroidered in the most vivid colors with deep lringe having knotted ends. It Is to Paul Polret, the eccentric though admittedly talented Paris man dressmaker, that fashion owes some of her more remarkable turns. -Just now M. Polret distinguishes himself by emphasizing the Japanese note. At a recent ball given in connection with the dressmaking trade of Paris a Polret mannequin wore an exquisite dress decidedly Japanese in effect, with her coiffeur a la Japanoise and

her face made up to resemble a Japanese masque. The dress was developed from black satin, silver fringe and a gorgeous silver brocade, on which there were Japanese flowers in nattier blue and rose.

SMART RIBBON BOWS ON HATS

Colored Strands Supply Simple and Attractive Trimming; Black Shapes Preferred.

Wide ribbon made Into loops and ends or tied in very smart bows of good size, is making the trimming for many of the hats shown for immediate wear. Iilack shapes particularly show the preference for the bow trim and models of hair, mallnes braid and. of course, mllan, are used for this purpose. In using these wide ribbons it is noticed that the hanging end is still employed, in some cases the ribbon reaching almost to the waistline at the side. Many of the large shapes In poke effect that have the new cutoff back brim, employ the ribbon to fill in this space with a long soft bow reaching far out on each side. In other cases, when a shape is raised slightly at the back, the ribbon loop or bow may be placed on the underside of the brim well toward the back.

Gray Umbrellas. In contrast with the bright-hued umbrellas of the moment is a new demure umbrella in fashionable gray tones. The cover is of dove gray silk and the handle is of gray bakelite hand-etched in black and white. Frame, tips anil ferrule are of silver. Nothing could be daintier or more elegant than this silver-trimmed gray silk umbrella, and because of its very quietness of tone it is n conspicuous asset of the costume on a rainv dav.

Fashion Hints. Lace and beading and plaited panels are the favored forms of trimming for several evening and dinner dresses. Velvet ribbon in a basket weave pattern forms the decoration of an allj el low georgette gown.

VARIETY OF MODISH FOOTWEAR

Great Array of New Styles for Women of All Ages and for Various Occasions.

For the last two years footwear has played an increasingly prominent role in the mode, growing ever more elaborate until tlu present season discovers in every shop such a multiplicity of trimmings and nich unusual combinations of colors and materials that the woman of taste and caution finds herself forced to watch her step lest she lose her way In this elaborate in a re. For fxampte, she now selects as a walking shoe for town wear either an entirely plain or simply trimmed oxford slue with a medium heel, or the slightly more elaborate type of shoe n low street shoe of black patent leather and gray suede, with elastic inserts and high patent leather Spanish heels. Another walking shoe of the more conservative type is an oxford of suede and patent leather with ;i broail. low. sue Uncovered heel. Heels of varied types are seen among the street hoe. ineltnlinjr the leather box heel, very broad and low, the familiar Cuban heel, and finally the slender Spanish heel, which Is a fraction lower than the French heel. For ti e afternoon, simple slippers of stum! or patent leather with steel bi:U!es are the favorites of the woman who seeks distinction in dros. and the bid Inir to displace the ubiquitous strapped sandal. Tlsee slippers of dN:intion seek the softer tones of s'.iode to harmonise -villi frocks of the fashionable colors, (iray. beige at:d black are set off with steel

buckles, while brown suede Is coinblned with a buckle of bronzed steel. Black patent father Is extremely smart for the afternoon, particularly when it Is simply made and set oiT with a colonial buckle, or an ornament of cut-steel beading. The slipper that is worn for formal afternoon occasions is invariably accompanied by the high, slender French heel.

William Burke, Infamous Irishman, Also Instrumental in Adding Significant Vtrb to Language. liurke and Hare were two notorious body-snatchers, or resurrectionists, who carried on their infamous trade in Edinburgh. William Hufke was born in Ireland in 17U-, and went to Scotland as a laborer about 1S17. In 1S-7 he was living in u cheap lodging house kept by another Irish laborer named William Hare. About the end of 1.SJ7 one of Hare's lodgers, an army Iensioner, died, and Hurke and Hare sold the body to Dr. Hoberi Knox, an Edinburgh anatomist. Hare; thereupon suggested body-snatching as a business and liurke agreed. The two men then started in to entice poor travelers to Hare's or some other cheap lodging house. The victims were plied with liquor and then suffocated under mattresses, without marks of violence. Doctor Knox took the bodies and paid up to 14 ($00) for them. At least 1.' people had been murdered in this way before Hurke and Hare were arrested. Hare turned kind's eIdenc and Hurke was found guilty and hanged in Edinburgh on January 'JS. 18-2). Hare found Scotland too hot for him and went to England, where he Is believed to have died under an assumed name. The verb "to burke, meaning to suffocate, to strangle, to suppress, or to put out of the way secretly, had Its origin in Hurke's method of doing auav with his victims.

WHERE GREAT EXPLORER LIES

South Georgia Island, Tomb of Shackleton, Lonely Spot "in the Great Antarctic Region.

An interesting picture of life In South Georgia island, the "Gateway of the .Antarctic," where Shackleton was buried, was given by an explorer who made a research expedition there a few years ago. At that time there was only one woman on the island, and she was the domestic in the household of (apt. ('. A. Larsen. a former Antarctic explorer who had settled down as head of a Norwegian whaling station on the island. "Helow my solitary tent," the correspondent writes, "the grassy bank sloped sharply to a milk-colored glacial stream entering an inlet of the sea only ."() yards away. A quarter of a mile across the inlet stood the perpendicular front of a beautiful valley glacier, coming down between peaked hills from the lifeless, silent interior. Penguins bobbed out of the sea helow the glacier and were my most interesting callers, for their curiosity could not resist a human being. Sea elephants crawled unconcernedly up the stream below me and went to sleep among the hummucks on the beach. Above the tent, on the plateau of the little promontory, seven pairs of albatrosses carried on their courtship ami nesting, along with giant petrels, skuas, keif gulls and the pretty little antarctic titlarks, the only land bird of the Far South, whose cheerful song was almost Ihe s.le homelike sound."

Details Needed. A woman, Messed with a masterful disposition and considerable property, died, leaving behind her a will in which her husband was cut oft' with a dollar, on the ground that he had deserted her a year before. The lawyer finally located the man and broke the news gently by telling him that he had received only a small bequest. "How much?" carelessly asked the man. -one dollar." With the same carelessness, the man turned toward the door. .Tust as he. reached it. however, a sudden thought struck him. "Say," he called back anxiously. "Did she specify what I was to do with this dollar?"

For Morning Wear. Morning clothes are not much trimmed. The material Itself is frequently made Into pin tucks, shirrincs, tight groups of gathers, hemstitching, even on serge, and groups of pleating which are found everywhere. Embroidery has not disappeared from the mode, every house having used It in seme fashion or other, but It is not a really embroidered season lor all that. It never is when lines are draped to the extent that they are at present.

Sarcasm From the Grave. The will of Alexander Louis Teixeira de Mattos, the Knglisli translator of Fahre. Maeterlinck. Couihtus. Zola ;md many other continental writers, contains one bequest that will interest a good many booklovers who

I have loaned their favorite volumes ' not wisely but too well at any rate,

too generously, says the Living Age. The estate of Mr. de Mattas was not large, its gross value amounting to less than O.ikn ($lo.00). and many of his bequests take the form of books. He leaves books to many of his friends. One volume in particular is left to a certain friend and is described as one "which he borrowed many years ago and has not returned.

Cool Nightgowns. ILmd emhroldered, sheer white nainsookIs made Into lovely nightgowns. Tucks, masses of them, are popular in lingerie, supplanting the gathers of former years. They launder well, although a deft hand Is required for the act.

Demand for Knit Wear. So active is the snU ,,f knitted smocks at the present time that, by some manufacturers of noveltv garments for vomen. they are s'aid to constitute from f to p.i per cent of the business now being done in that merchandise.

Increased Tractor Power. A new attachment designed to give the small tractor greater U'aring area and increased pulling power, replaces the round wheels with two large sprockets, according to an Illustrated article in Popular Mechanics Magazine. Outside of each sprocket is a cast-steel arm which projects forward and downward, carrying at Its from end a smaller idler wheel. A trjM-k tread passes around the sprocket and idler w heed, ghing the tractor increased bearing area.

Lightest of Liquids. Many experiments here and abroad hae shown that liquid hydrogen is by far the lightest of all known liquids. Its density Is one-fourtenth that of water, and, curiously enough, this happens to le the same ratio of density that hydrogen In the gaseous state bears to air. For long the lightest liquid known was liquified marsh gas. which possesses about two-fifths of the density of water. Washington Star.

Special Care of Baby. That Baby should have a bed of its own all are agreed. Yet it is more reasonable for an infant to sleep with grown-ups than to use a man's medicine in an attempt to regulate the delicate organism of that same infant. Either practice is to be shunned. Neither would be tolerated by specialists in children's diseases. Your Physician will tell you that Baby's medicine must be prepared with even greater care than Baby's food. A Baby's stomach when in good health is too often disarranged by improper food. Could you for a moment, then, think of giving to your ailing child anything but a medicine especially prepared for Infants and Children ? Don't be deceived. Make a mental note of this: It is important, Mothers, that you should remember that to function well, the digestive organs of your Baby must receive special care. No Baby is so abnormal that the desired results may be had from the use of medicines primarily prepared for grown-ups.

Porter Had Fairly Reasoned as Why the Boots Were Placed Outside the Door.

I had been tramping through the Virginia mud all day, and stopped at the little inn. I was tired and immediately went to my room, a small one with a large bed occupying most of the space. As usual. I placed my shoes outside to be cleaned. Next morning there they were, as muddy as the night before, and being number twelves, they carried considerable soil. I went down to the lobby, and in order to teach the porter a much-needed lesson I called him up before the onlookers who were sitting in the oJllee. "Why didn't you clean my shoes boy?" I asked gruffly. "I didn't know you wanted 'em cleaned, sah," was the reply. "Why in thunder do you reckon I put 'em outside the door?" "Well, sah. I allowed there wasn't room inside for 'em, sah," was the answer. Exchange.

SAVED SHOPPERS FROM BEES

Potent Magic Exercised by California Constable Earned Him Vote of Thanks From Women.

We have all heard of the snake charmer, but a bee charmer is the latest. To Constable AI La Cunha of Ilayward, Ca I., goes the medal. Alone and unaided. La Cunha rounded up a swarm of angry bees and conquered them without a single sting. The bees in question, having outgrown their dwelling of ten years over the shop of Edward S. Warren, swarmed toward the courtroom of Judge Jacob Harder, Jr.. through streets filled with women shoppers. La Cunha witnessed the flight of the bees and then his magic became apparent. Ho beat a tattoo with a stiek upon a tin can and the bees became 'charmed. They ceased their llight and settled on a nearby tnn). The shoppers hearing of his daring, gave the constable a vote of thanks.

So he matched his strength against the swirl of the rapids, and laughed at the danger, and kept repeating the stunt, until It was the day the life-savers had been waiting for that day the call for help came. It's an easy matter to smile at coffee warnings when youVe going strong. But a good many strong swimmers won't risk the rapids, and a good many coffee drinkers are beginning to think of the caffeine in coffee.

Coffee can disturb nerves and digestion, and often it does. There's a safe and satisfying course for everybody in the selection of a table drink. Postum has charm without harm. It's the safe drink for all, and probably, therefore, it's the better drink for you. Thousands have found it better, and fully satisfying, for them. Your grocer has both forms of Postum: Instant Postum (in tins) made instantly in the cop by the addition cf boiling water.
