Fashion has spoken— and when shr speaks, let no dog, even In his bey-dey, hark. It was bad enough during the sum mer. when the lighter fabric* lent thcmaelvea more or less effectually to the spiral garniture which has become the vogue. But when winter comes umt the heavy aergea sre loaded down with flounces. flounces everywhere, the famale form divine will look like a cross between afr 1 riled pullet and the tower of Babel. Her burden will be greater than If she carried a tooth some secret or had gone unshrive® for a year. She will do well to stand the strain. Flounces! They are the latest de vice of the deity of darkness to distort and Anally destroy the graceful lines which nature gave to womanhood. They make the doctors smile and the women weep. They convert beauty In to hUleoaity. and the wearers walk the streets looking like a ragged cabbage. It took the united protests of two continents, backed by something like open boycott, to avert the return of crinoline. Even then wr were given a fearful fright Hardly has the world recovered when the cumulative flounce hursts upon a desperate people with every Indication that, like another gar ment, “ft has come to stay.” The feak faddists who devise these fearful and wonderful things ought to have their throats cut on the bias and their backs gored and hasted until the world wna rid of their Intermittent scourges, j J rBE ATTOT7STA tup Salt BE SutMMMpSB mmmhl Mi rwlriirr MMs wmwwtdy «* E' Mahdl ihe faualk Mhwleui wlm pH*- I . . . .. ,free m*w**ww*v es ' fhrg_ the tuheluMaetr uee* to npMil - T%m to MMuaredl Asgk*.

Several times I rode over the pretty place with a dear friend, enjoying tbe company, the scenery and the swift speeding of tbe fine bay horses, as we moved easily over the sandy roads. And. breathing the fresh, sweet air. I forgot tbe spell of grip in May and the weary days of convalescence. I attended several house parties those informal gatherings where friends meet and remember the pleas ure long afterwards. At Col. Mattox's country place I met several interesting people, among them Judge Sam Lumpkin and his lovely wife. The judge is every Inch the judge, and his lady, so sweet and winsome, will not be forgotten. Mrs. Mattox entertains charmingly and Col. Mattox gives of his best to his friends. The women convicts work on Col. Mattox’s plantation. Old Mre. Nobles was there. She look* very much like an Indian squaw—hard and tough but when someone read to her a letter from her daughter, tears gathered in her cold gray eyes, and trickled down her sallow cheeks. I saw the convict blacksmith. A tall, straight young woman of light copper color, dressed in shirt and trousers, for convenience. She was holding the bridle of a strong gray horse when my attention was called to her. “A wo man.” I said, in astonishment. “Yes." auswered my host, smiling at my sud den exclamation. The trousers v.cre rolled to the knees —exposing sturdy legs and well shaped feet —and the shirt sleeves pulled up to the elbows left bare the finest arms I ever saw. The “striker” stood in the shop door. A coal-black, thick-set girl. In dress of regulation stripes, tucked up. washerwoman fashion. Btlt I was in terested in the- blacksmith.
