The model is in Directoire style and three-quarter length, the high, close, turn-over collar, large revers, > turn-back cuffs and pockets faced with black velvet, trimmed with loops of ; black soutache braid and small cloth-covered buttons. The large buttons | which fasten the front of the coat are of black velvet. The long sleeves are ! box-plaited into the armholes, and the side-back seams curving in at the waist- ; line give graceful lines to the slim figure. The skirt is a nine-gored plaited model made of the plaid side of the tweed. It is one of the newest and most stylish designs and the plaits are trimmed with small cloth-covered buttons matching the ones on (he revers and cuffs of the coat. The lower edge is finished with a simple hem and the model closes under an inverted box-plait at the center-back.

AFTERNOON DRESS. — tw oSfel rww ! M t ? 1 ® >' TCJP^fr Here is a graceful design for eolienne in a pale biscuit shade. The high-waisted skirt is cut with a slight fullness in center of back, also a train. The bodice has a yoke of tucked net, edged with a shaped piece of dark brown silk; filet insertion, edged with material, forms the bretelles; it is caught up under a buckle at the back; a medallion is sewn at the end of each bretelle in front, where a plaiting of cord joins them together. The sleeves are slightly puffed to the elbow, they continue to the wrist tight, and slightly rucked; a plaiting of chiffon is sewn down the seams and 'round the wrists. Tassels add to the trimming j at elbow. Materials required: 7% yards 44 inches wide, 1 yard silk, 1 yard plaited chiffon, 2 3 ^ yards insertion, 6 tassels, 2 medallions, 2 yards cord. W ' Easily Laundered Sleeves. To lessen materially the difficulty of ! ironing a shirtwaist sleeve open the j sleeve from shoulder to wrist after joining the under arm seam, hem the raw edges, finish the forward lap with lace and join the sleeve again with button holes and tiny flat pearl but- I tons. Dainty Frills. Some women nave a fancy for plain, ; sheer ruffling, and they like it better than lace or embroidery for trimming underwear. For such there are dainty frillings, which come in all widths, some of which are hemstitched, while all are supplied with a drawing string by which to gather them. These are easily applied to the edge of hems, as there are no raw edges to ; be disposed of. The trimming is quaint and reminds one of her grandmother's linens piled i with tiny stitches and redolent of lavender. Soutache extends even to sash trim- ; mings and will be seen used as an or- i nament in the heart of large rosettes ' and also upon the ends of sashes in little curves or flowers of graceful form. What? A woman whose husband sometimes ; jests because she spends much of her time thinking and talking about clothes sends word that she wonders what 75 per cent, of the met! would have to talk or think ab< at if there were no such thing as bas‘ ball.

. ----- - I INDIAN SHAWLS AS DRAPERY. Empire Gowns for Evening Embellished with Shawls. Every woman who possesses among her treasures a large white Indian । shawl —embroidered and fringed—has । an evening dress ready to her hand. I and no dressmaker needed. She has but to have a scant empire dress of white silk or satin, decollete and sleeveless, or. perhaps, with a tiny ■ edge of lace which forms a four-inch deep sleeve. Then taking the shawl I and folding it in triangular shape. ■ leaving one point a few inches longer than the other, place it across the bust under the arms, with the point I coming in the front center of the skirt, cross the ends in the back and bring one over each shoulder, attaching it on either side just at the arm pits, letting the points fall front. With three artistic brooches or rhinestone pins, or cameos (which are better j still) —one on either side in front and one in the back —one has the most artistic kind of dress for this year's fashion. It goes without saying that the shawl must be drawn as tight as will allow one to step to be really smart. Naturally heelless satin slippers with ribbons about the ankles should be worn with a dress like this, and no gloves, and the hair should be dressed simply so as to show the shape of the head. Pillows from Coverlets. If one has an old-fashioned coverlet in rich blue and white, such as out grandmothers used on their beds, they can be made over into charming sofa : pillows. While few women would be willing to cut up a good spread for this pur pose, it is a happy solution for the . coverlet that is worn in places. Not only do they make attractive ■ pillow slips, but if they are made tc j button on, they can be laundered re I peatedly and will wear for years. There are now to be found many I cheap, modern spreads in imitation of the old-time quilts. These one need have no hesitation about cutting intc all sized pillows. Lace Curtains. I Cut off the lower scalloped edge of ' your lace curtain around the turn and I lay it on the net above, where it is worn out “from the sun and dust striking it,'' then finish cutting. Baste and sew to the good part by machine, cut all the old net away and you have a I good pair of curtains reaching to the window sills. — Comfort for the Baby. The carefid mother, who always I wishes her baby to be dainty and I clean, will be delighted to hear that ' very inexpensive and comfortable coach and crib covers may be made of cotton batting sewed between two thicknesses of ordinary white cheesei cloth and quilted by machine stitching. This forms the foundation. The outer , cover may be of two thicknesses of ’ pique or bunting made just like a bag. with both sides and one end sewed up. The comforter is then slipped into the outer cover, and to hold it in : place a bow of ribbon may be fastened j at each corner by little safety pins. This is r.U the finishing the comfortI er requires, and it is so easy to reI move the outer cover and wash it I when it becomes soiled. What a savI ing cf time and trouble this new idea । is! Whatever the gown, the accessoi ries must be in tone with it. Baby's head dress this winter is the old fashioned poke bonnet. For dres wear shiny leather shoes i are still predominant.

PRISON FOR NORSE ICE TRUST MAGNATE SENTENCED TO FIFTEEN YEARS. A. H. CURTIS IS RELEASED Wives of the Two Convicted New York Financiers Collapse as the Court Pronounces Judgment. ——— New York.—From a cell in the 1 ombs prison. Charles W. Morse now directs the efforts of his counsel to secure his freedom, he having been sentenced Friday to serve 15 years in the federal prison at Atlanta, Ga., for I misapplication of the funds of the National Bank of North America and making false entries in the books of the bank. Alfred H. Curtis, former president of the defunct bank, who was jointly I tried and convicted with Morse, was given his liberty on a suspended sentence. While Morse’s lawyers immediately applied for and secured a stay of execution for ten days after sentence had been imposed, still it is probable that Morse will remain a prisoner in the Tombs until Monday, as Judge Hough has refused to admit the financier to j bail. The Morse lawyers late Friday applied to the United States circuit court of appeals for a writ tv show । cause why their client should not be admitted to bail, and the writ was granted, but it is not returnable until Monday; hence it appears that Morse must remain a prisoner until the question of bail is settled on that day. May Not Get New Trial, Whether a new trial will be granted Morse is problematical. Judge Lacombe granted a writ of error to the Morse lawyers. This writ is return able December 3 and is based on the usual grounds—exceptions taken by the defense during the trial and ex- j ceptions to the indictment itself. This i ' I fe ' ft S fl , '^fty I ’ 7 W X W 1/ v r ! C'.OiEttS KjfclPjS. : step had to be taken before application for bail could be made, and it also ; leads tc the argument for a new trial. ; The Morse lawyers say their client has instructed them to fight To the last ditch.’’ The scene in the courtroom when sentence was pronounced by Judge Hough was a most dramatic one. The wives of the two prisoners, who had been constant attendants at court dur- ■ ing the entire trial, were present ; early Friday as if anxious to cheer their husbands by their presence in the trying ordeal which confronted them. Husbands Are Comforters. When the real test came, however, it was the husbands and not the wives who proved the comforters. Morse \ sat like a stoic when he heard the words which condemned him to prison. There was scarcely the tremor of an 1 eyelid, and to those who watched ■ there was no longer even the shadow of a doubt that the ’Tittle man’’ was indeed a man of iron nerve. Curtis, too, accepted the news which came to him —good news in his case—with the same lack of emotion that characterized his former chief. But the strain had been too great for the women. As , the truth of what Judge Hough’s i words meant flashed through their ■ mind Mrs. Morse, who through all j the trying day of the trial had prei served an unruffled demeanor, col- , lapsed in her seat, buried her face in ' her hands and began to sob convulsively. Nat Goodwin Marries Again. Boston. —Nat C. Goodwin, the comedian, and Edna Goodrich, a wellknown actress, who formerly starred 1 with Mr. Goodwin, were married at ' one o’clock Sunday at the home here of Mr. Goodwin’s mother. The ceremony was performed by a justice of the peace, who has been a friend of Mr. Goodwin since boyhood. This is the fourth marriage of Mr. ■ Goodwin and the second ot Miss Good- | rich. Banker’s Prison Term Ends. Boston. —Lewis Warner, a former banker and manufacturer of Northampton, was released Monday from the state prison, where he has been serving a sentence of nine years for misapplying the funds of the Hampshire Savings bank of that city. Fatal Fight in Alabama.

Charlotte, N. C. —John Cooper, a student at the University of North Carolina, and a member of the 'varsity football eleven, who was injured during the preliminary practice of the team in September while tackling a dummy, died at Clinton. Steamer Sinks; 150 Drown. Tokyo.—News has reached here of the loss of the steamer Taish Maru, which was sunk during a storm off Etoro island. One hundred and fifty persons were drowned.

The General Demand of the Well-Informed of the World has always been for a simple, pleasant and efficient liquid laxative remedy of known value; a laxative which physicians could sanction for family use because its component parts are known to them to be wholesome and truly beneficial in effect, acceptable to the system and gentle, yet prompt, in action. In supplying that demand with its crcellent combination of Syrup of Figs and I.lixir of Senna, the California Fig Syrup Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies : on the merits of the laxative for its remarkable success. That is one of many reasons why I Syrup of I' igs and Elixir of Senna is given the preference by the Well-Informed. To get its beneficial effects always buy the genuine—manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale by all leading druggists. Price fifty cents per bottle. FOR THE LADY PR THE AUTO.

Eczema Lasted 7 Years—Face Was All Raw—Skin Specialists Failed, But Cuticura Effected Cure. “When my little boy was six weeks old an eruption broke out on his face. । I took him to a doctor, but his face ' kept on getting worse until it got so bad that no one could look at him. ■ His whole face was one crust and i must have been very painful. He j scratched day and night until his face was raw. Then I took him to all the : best specialists in skin diseases but they could not do much for him. The eczema got on his arms and legs and we could not get a night’s sleep in months. I got a set of Cuticura Remedies and he felt relieved the first time 1 used them. I gave the Cuticura i Remedies a good trial and gradually the eczema healed all up. Ue is now seven years old and I think the trouI ble will never return. Mrs. John G. Klumpp. SO Niagara St., Newark, N. J., Oct. 17 and 22, 1907.” SEEMED A TRIFLE PERSONAL. Clergyman’s Particular Reason for Omitting the Fifth Verse. A clergyman in an interior town married a woman from whom he received a dowry of 510,000 and a prospect of more. Shortly afterwards, while occupying the pulpit, he gave out a hymn, read the first verse and proceeded to read the fifth, commencing: “Forever let my grateful heart.” then he hesitated and exclaimed: "The choir will omit the fifth verse.” Some of the congregation read the ; verse for themselves and smiled as they read: Forever let my grateful heart His boundless grace adore. Which gives ten thousand blessings now ; And bids me hope for more. Real Self-Possession. Not long ago a young couple entered a railway carriage at Sheffield and were immediately put down as a bridal pair. But they were remarkably selfI possessed and behaved with such sang-froid that the other passengers began to doubt if their first surmise was correct after all. As the train moved out. however, i the young man rose to remove bis overcoat, and a shower of rice fell out, while the passengers smiled broadly. | But even that did not affect the youth, who also smiled, and. turning to his partner, remarked audibly: “By Jove. May! I’ve stolen the bridegroom’s overcoat’”—Tatler. EAGER TO WORK Health Regained by Right Food. The average healthy man or woman Is usually eager to be busy at some useful task or employment. But let dyspepsia, or indigestion get hold of one, and nU endeavor becomes a burden. "A year ago, recovering from an operation,” a Mich. lady, "my stomach and nerves began to give me much trouble. “At times my appetite was voracious, but when indulged, indigestion followed. Other times 1 had no appetite whatever. The food 1 took did not nourish me, and I grew weaker than over. "I lost interest in everything, and wanted to be alone. I had always had i good nerves, but now the merest trifle , would upset me and bring on a vio- | lent headache. Walking across the i room was an effort and prescribed exercise was out of the question. "I had seen Grape-Nuts advertised, but did not believe what I read, at the time. At last when it seemed as if I were literally starving, I began to eat Grape-Nuts. "I had not been able to work for a year, but now after two months on Grape-Nuts I am eager to be at work I again. My stomach gives me no trou- 5 ble now, my nerves are steady as i ever, and interest in life and ambition ' have came back with the return to j health.” “There's a Reason.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle i Creek.
