Charity by any Other Name in Just as Sweet, Especially if That Name Be Fashion. Now York, August 25. — When we think of bazaars, we naturally conjure up pictureH of fancy work in the name of charity, even the wholesome odor of crullers and the picturesque white-iced cake, but bazaars have outgrown this honied atmosphere and to-day have become bazaars of fashion. No longer do you attend to buy Christmas gifts and goodies, hut ntoro properly to learn what to wear and when to wear it, or, perchance, to show your own new dress. FASHION FETES IN THE NAME OF C.HAH- ITY. Newport, is the setting for some of these birzaars. Hero on the spacious lawns of country homes, mannequins display the very latest, modes from Paris, vieing in smartness with the women who eome to see them. There are tableaux and grand promenades, and, best of all, you can sip tea and view them with » conscience free from guile, for your entrance fee goeB to sweet charity. stripes crosswise, while the yoke, waist, and cuffs had the stripes straight up and down. There was a sheer vest, Quaker collar of crisp white swiss, and sleeves of black georgette crepe, mak ing a striking contrast with the cuffs of the silk. SKIKTS SHOUT ANI) SHORTER STILL. There Beemed to be no limit to the shortness of the skirt. The costume just mentioned was worn with white kid shoes, and the skirt was so short that at least an inch of the stocking showed between the top of the shoe and the bottom of the skirt. Indeed, many of the mannequins locked like school girlB, but shoes are fancy, and skirts are obviously Bhort to show them. Wo men want their money's worth. As I watched the mannequins, I could not help thinking of the little boy who went without his coat in December to show his new suspenders. BRAID INTRODUCED AS HAT TRIMMING. There were many new things intro duced. Perhaps the most interesting no tion was Hercules braid as hat trim ming. There is no question of its popu lurity as dress trimming, but for hats, the idea was certainly unique. It was med in three flat bauds on the velvet brim of a sailor, while the crown was white satin trimmed with beads. This sent by a New York modiste. THE PARASOL REVERSES ITS HANDLE. It was decidedly a showing of every thing milady needs for a complete ward robe. The accessories were as startling as they were smart. One of the girls carried a parasol with a swan’s-head handle on tho top, while what naturally would be the handle tapered off into the cap of the walking stick. Though a bit top heavy, the effect, when opened, was attractive. ENTER THE FROCK WITH FLOATING PAN ELS Styles were not confined alone to the mannequins. Society took a keen in terest in the cause, and there were many notables present. It seemed as if ev ery one had put on their best bid and tucker for the occasion. One woman who is summering in Maine came down to be present at the fete. Her gown was one of the new combinations of blue serge and Scotch plaid taffeta. When she Blend still the skirt appeared to he of the serge, hut when she moved it broke into foaming panels, displaying a medium width underskirt of the plaid. This matched a shoulder and sleeve sec tion, while the serge was used in a bib effect on the waist and for the deep cuffs. SILKS AND SERGES THE FABRICS FOR FALL. Many similar effects were to be seen. Serge seems to be even more popular than in past seasons. This is, no doubt, due to the fact that it is so hard for the French mills to weave their novelties. However, the serges are smart and the women seemed content to use these in TIu* drctR with floating pnnolH foaturinur a smart combination of plaid taffeta and plain strife. 1 AUGUST CLEARANCE SALE OF Furnituns AT MARBURY’S Don’t fail to get some of the extra fine bargains we are selling at COST while they last.

Yours for quick sales, MARB r A costume of satin-striped faille showing the new KMuntlet cuff und pleated skirt. The latter part of last week the b ■< z isr of tlie season was held at the home of one of the leaders of the Newport set. In artistic tableaux by Grecian summer houses, all the summer modes were reviewed and predictions made for the coming season. STRIPED FAILLE A FAVORED FABRIC. Every dress showed at least two ma terials; heavy faille silk was a favored fabric. One tall blonde manne|uin wore a dress of striped satin and gros- grain silk which was particularly new and attractive. Its very simplicity baffles description, its charm being in thj clever use of the stripes. The skirt had a pleated lower section, kilted one might say, for it was straight and laid in deep folds from the hip to the bot tom. This was cut with the deep Disagreeable Calomel Is Yielding To Pleasant Liv-ver-Lax. Physicians generally agree that the unpleasant, nauseating effects of calo mel are due to the undesirable violent action it has on the system. For a long while various substitutes have been tried, but it was only recently thai the reallv wonderful remedy, l.iv-Ver-I^ax, was prepared successfully by L. K. Grigsby. Liv Ver Lax has al! the good and none of the bad effects of calomel. It is a necessity in every home, always being ready to cleanse the sluggish liver and bile clogged system, with no unpleasant after-effects.

Cates Drug Co. It isn’t a good plan to collide with a man who is riding u hobby. combination with the taffetas and failles. There were some smart effects with striped taffetas, and the plain dark blue grosgrain combined with serge made rich dresses. Scotch plaids were much in evidence, but the tones were so dark and rich they could scarcely be said to contrast with the blue. RUSSIAN BOOTS AGAIN IN EVIDENCE. Several of the women were booted according to the Russian fashion. The woman who wore the floating panel dress described above, had the long boots in black patent leather. They were made the same as riding boots, wide enough at the ankle for the foot to slip through. There were other Russian boots in fawn leather trimmed with tan; one of the mannequins wore a pair of white kid boots trimmed with black patent leather. SOCIETY VIES WITH THE MANNEQUIN. Indeed, society seemed to be booted an 1 gowned as smart, if not smarter, than the mannequins themselves. The whole atmosphere breathed of fashion. There is something really fascinating about these women, sipping tea and watching women wear the gowns that they themselves may wear later on. That Labor Day has gradually been given over almost wholly to sport and recreation is a cheering evolution. Crowded stands at the baseball parks, packed excursion trains and steamers, j full bathing beaches, teeming parks, j and standing-room signs in the theaters on Labor Day bespeak a prosperous j and contented country. Were men out j of work, factory chimneys destitute ot smoke, spindles idle, and mines closed j down we would see more m tss meetings on Labor Dav.
