TUNICS POPULAR
LOR WOMEN’S WEAR
Hats Seen in Many Shapes
and Sizes.
Correspondence Times-Recorder.)
NEW YORK, Oct. 26.—Tunics have
i’rown very popular ever since the
.'ashion was announced. Some are
deep in the back and front, and others
ire made just the opposite. There have
been seen tunics of dotted or striped
goods which are worn over a plain
skirt. Many of them are weighted at
the hem by heavy silk fringe, which is
.a noticeable feature in trimming.
The separate wrap has become the
craze of the American women. Some
are made of the material like the bo
dice and skirt, so making a three piece
costume, but many are of contrasting
colors and materials, made in long
Rowing lines. They are all elaborate
ly trimmed with soutache, tassels,
ornaments, and much silk and bead
fringe. A new idea, wdiich is very pret
ty, is to trim the inside of the wrap.
Mats are seen in every imaginable
shape and size, but there are two that
seem to be the standbys; the modified
mushroom and the cavalier shapes.
The mushroom or cloche, is a peculiar
favorite, and is used for dressy hats
as well as for every-day wear. The
cavalier shapes are revived for those
who do not care for the new styles. It
is cut down for street wear and is
rimmed with wired taffeta loops, us
ually in front and a folded band
wound the crown.
More Dressy Jackets.
Some of the more dressy jackets are
■made of a transparant material which
3s braided and the whole is made up
'over a taffeta lining of a lighter tint
than the garment or a contrasting col
or. There are a few jaunty separate
coats that are made of cloth of taffeta
in bright current red, bronze green,
mahogany and bishop’s purple. Hdw
over, the most of the coats are made
of the same material as the skirt for
The tailor-made suits seem to be the
fashion of the year.
The very latest to he w orn with the
face gowns are muff and scarf sets
made entirely of real lace. One has
been seen of elaborate Spanish laces
and five different laces besides. There
were delicate touches of color in the
form of embroidery added as a pretty

Evening Dress Materials.
Evening dress materials in combi
nation with velvet is much evidenced
vh all the late fashions. The effect is
.smart when the plain chiffons or chif
fon cloths are made up with chiffon
velvet in bands and panels. Black
chiffon with raised velvet flowers in
self-tones is especially effective. A
really beautiful dress for evening is
of black Brussels lace net braided
with satin soutache.
Separate w r aists of embroidered net
and all-over lace are more attractive
Than ever before. Some of the blouses
are loose fitting, but the lining is fit
ted and honed carefully so the effect
is unusually pretty. Tucks, ruches
and satin applications are the favorite
trimmings. The sleeves are of the
puff style, the stock, collars are high
and the girdles are narrow and skill
fully draped.

the catarrh powders and snuffs, for

Balm releases the secretions that

and leave you no better than you were.
In a word, Ely’s Cream Balm is a real

DINED WITH BISHOP
POTTER BEFORE THAT
Colored Prelate Saw Noth
ing Unusual.
CHARLESTON, S. C., October 2G.
(Special)—Bishop S. D. Ferguson,
the Liberian who stirred up something
of a furore in the South by being the
guest of Bishop Potter, at dinner in
Richmond during the recent Episcopal
Convention is in Charleston, the city
of his nativity. He is stopping at the
residence of his cousin, Police Officer
Carroll.
“Oh, dear me,” said Bishop Fergu
son, with some show of affectation,
when asked about his dining with
Bishop Potter recently at Richmond,
which has excited much comment in
the circles of his church and i n the
newspapers. “It is not the first time
that I have dined with Bishop Potter,”
he added. “I have several times dined
with him. We have been good friends
for many years, dating from the time
that he with four other bishops of the
Episcopal church laid hands upon
me in the solemn ritual of the con
secration.”
Bishop Ferguson was asked about
conditions of Liberia and her people
of whom much criticism affecting
their social, industrial and political
affairs has been made recently. Bish
op Ferguson declared the country to
be prosperous and the people happy
and content. He said that much of
this adverse criticism was undeserv
ed.
A large part of the immigration into
Liberia in recent years, Bishop Fer
guson said, has come from the nor
thern and western portions of the
United States. The Southern states
have furnished comparatively few of
the settlers.

“Don’t Get Married, Ma.”
Here is the latest comic song of
Miss Vesta Victoria, the English mim
ic, who popularized ‘Waiting at the
Church” and “Poor John:”
A girl should be respectful to her ma,
that’s true,
But in my situation, what’s a girl to
do?
Ma and I, we can’t agree, though I
feel bound to say
She’s had lets of troubles in the mat
rimonial way,
-I call it trouble, but it doesn’t worry
her;
She wouldn’t worry much, whatsoever
might occur,
I do the worrying, and thought it only
right
To say just what I thought, and so I
said the other night:
Chorus.
Don’t get married any more, ma! don’t
get married any more!
Four times in my time a bride you’re
been
And four times before I came upon the
scene,
I don’t like so many changes—
It makes you kind of wonder where
you are
Soon as I get used to one, another
comes along—
Can’t I have a permanent papa?
She didn’t seem to like when I spoke
like that,
She stared at my and said, “I’ll please
myself— that’s flat,”
“Ma, says I, I know you’re been un
lucky in the past—
Can’t you find a husband, though,
that’s guaranteed to last?
When 1 look back a bit it’s -so pecu
liar,
j So many gentlemen I’ve had to call
papa,
You’ve had so many names; it must
be eight or nine;
I often have to think before I’m cer
tain which is mine.”
“It’s my place to tell you, hut I will,”
says ma;
I ‘‘lt’s true that sev’ral husbands I
have had so far,
None of them, however, was the- right
one, bear in mind!
J I much keep on searching, my affinity
to find.”
I don’t know what she means, but,
you see,
Young Mr. Perkins wants to be engag
ed to me.
I dare not take him to introduce to
ma—
Suppose lie’s ma’s affinity! I’d get a
new papa!

CORTELYOU’S “BOOM”
INVOLVED IN CRISIS
Wall Street's Candidate on
the Job.
WASHINGTON, D. C., October 26..
(Special)—Of all the people who are
scared at the panicky state of affairs
in and about Wall street, Secretary
Cortelyou is probably scaredest. His
little presidential boomlet would be
blown into smithereens in very short
■ order were a real panic to come, and
• he has been so close to Wall street
all his life that he is unable to dif
ferentiate a real panic from a break
. in securities in Wall street and the
consequent failure of one or two of
, the big trust companies.
In spite of all the throwing of cold
■ water on it, it is well understood here
! that the young man from New York
’ who had such a skyrocket career had
his eye on the White House, and the
: only way he can get there is to be
put there by the backing of the finan
cial interests.
Wouldn’t Stay “Bought”
Because he would not stay bought
there is no man In public life or
| private who is so unanimously dis
liked by Wall street as Roosevelt. The
moneyed interests of New Y r ork have
always disliked him. The one time
they pretended to love him was when
they bought him up in the last presi
dential election with a large campaign
fund.
He stayed bought for a couple of
years, during which time he was the
hero of Wall street. But when no
longer able to stem the tide of pub
lic clamor for the ousting of those
who had betrayed the people’s trust
and had committed all sorts of out
rages he turned upon them wjth his
mighty flow of words.
Wall Street’s Candidate
So Wall street’s candidate for the
■ presidency is Cortelyou. He prompt
ly went to New Y’ork to help out “the
street,” and he helped it out. Os
course, Mr. Roosevelt approves of this
matter of helping out, for the mere
matter of depositing a few million dol
! lars in the banks in New York is such
a customary thing and is so little un
> derstood by the people that there is
comparatively little danger of an
1 outburst from the people, especially
when so many influential ones "Yeel
that tire little deal helps them out by
re-establishing confidence in the
banking institutions of the country.
There is no doubt that President
Roosevelt would like to have all the
credit for running in these swindlers,
and there is little doubt that the peo
ple very largely attribute it all to
him. He is a remarkable man. He
keeps his ear close to the ground and
he knows what the people throughout
the country want. Cortelyou does
not know what they want. He gets
his opinions like so many of his type
from the club-men and patrons of the
Waldorf-Astoria dining rooms, and
! they one and all are of the opinion
that “the people” consist of those
‘ who buy and sell stocks on the New
York stock exchange.'
NATURE’S WARNING.
Americus People Must Recognize and
Heed It.
Kidney ills come quietly—myster
iously,
But nature always warns you
through the urine.
Notice the kidney secretions.
See if the color is unhealthy—
If there are settlings and sediment,
Passages too frequent, scanty, pain
' ful.
It’s time then to use Doan’s Kid
ney Pills,
To ward off Bright's disease or!
' diabetes.
J. H. Thompson, employed by the j
cotton compress company and living j
at 213 Pine street, Albany, Ga., says: i
Doan's Kidney Pills rid me of a lame
and aching back, and I am therefore
prepared to recommend them very
highly. I had suffered frqm this com
plaint for some years past. It was a
dull pain right across the small of:
| my back particularly severe at night, j
1 breaking liiy rest and robbing me ofj
: sleep. The kidney secretions con
| tained a sediment and were very free j
| and strong-smelling. I used various j
| kidney remedies but nothing seemed j
to do me any good until I got Doan’s
Kidney Pills and used them. They!
j gave me almost immediate relief, and ;
j since using them my back has been!
free from pain, my urine contains no
| sediment and does not bother me as it j
did.”
Plenty more proof life this from j
j Americus people. Call at Dodson’s j
| Pharmacy and ask what customers j
j report.
