bands of fur and their fur crowns.
;inrl the new very gh boots that are
worn with the slit skirt and have
"uppers" of cloth nf velvet to match
the tpilet, are also finished with
their rouleau of peltry
One of the most recent develop
ment of the peltry program is the
permission given by the dictators of
the modes for combining two furs I
in one scheme, with an effect that is
not universally pleasing to the taste
of the fastidious, but Is quite success
ful when well managed.
It so happens that errrfine is the
fur that most harmoniously mingles
with something dark, against which
its brilliance stands out with due
splendor, and therefore the new
i amalgamation generally Includes that
J snowy pelt.
A magnificent wrap-over mantle
combines ermine and skunk, divided
I by an expanse of chalk-white broclie
velvet. Ii is Impossible to exaggerate
the beauty of the design, for the bro
caded velvet Is most happily chosen
since it throws into prominence the
blanche of the oape, with* its black
fringe of tails and also the rich and
somber brown of the broad skunk
band.
The arrangement of the collar is in
keeping with the new rule, which ap
plies to the daytime coat also. Tt
does away with the careless droop of
the long revers and gives the coat a
very snug and comfortable look, par
ticularly as it is fastened beneath
the chin with a clasp as practical as
it is hbautiful.
The clasp might advantageously be
of the semi-barbaric Russian pattern
set with turquoise or. a piece of
beautiful Indian work wrought in fii-
Igree gold with a jewel center.

Woman Believed She Could Not
Eat Solid Food—Doctors Call
Case Remarkable.
CARLISLE, PA., Dec. * -Miss Ma-y
Rock, who died at Chambersburg this
week at the age of 73, had lived for
56 years of that time on milk, wate r
coffee and candy alone. She had im
agined that she could not eat solid
food.
An autopsy made immediately fol
lowing the woman's death revealed
the fact that her digestive organs
were in perfect condition and that
she. might easily have eaten any
thing she wanted.
Local physicians consider this one
of the most remarkable examples I
of the hypochondriacal condition ex
tant.
Oregon Saleswomen
Have Minimum Wage
PORTLAND, ORHX.V, Dec. 6—A
new law* that will place Oregon in th#
front rank of the States that have
adopted measures designed to better
the condition of women workers h is
become operative.
The law fixes a minimum wage of
JO.lio a week for adult women clerks
not apprentices; defines eight boin.s
and twenty minutes as the maximum
day’s work, arid fifty hours as the
maximum foY a week, and makes 6
p. m. the latest hour at which any
woman may be employed on any cl ly
of the year in a mercantile establish
ment.
This measure automatically elimi
nates Saturday night shopping and
Christmas holiday night shopping in
such establishments
J OSEPH N MOODY has fall i. »
under the spell of the new j
dances. He has been taking j
lessons regularly on the mezzanine
floor of the Georgian Terrace and at 1
the last report was rapidly acquir- !
ing the "hestitation.” The other nigm
a debutante was coaching him.
"Quit looking at your feet, .M
Moody.” she advised. "As long :is
your eyes are on your feet you never
will learn.”
“Tut, tat,” replied the rotund Mr.
Moody. "I haven’t seen my feet for
forty years and the only reason I im
taking up dancing is in the hope
that some day my eyes might rest on
them again.”
If I ever decide to learn the tango —
perish the thought—I certainly will
take lessons from the teacher who
taught Charlie Rainwater and his
charming wife. Did you see them
the other day at the tango tea in the
Piedmont. Everyone had been one-
stepping and hesitating when the or
chestra struck up a tango. The real
truth about the tango is that very’ few’
girls and not one man in fifty can
dance it. Consequently there was no
rush for the floor. The only couple
that started were the Rainwaters.
They went through the entire dance
alone and I have never seen it danced
better. Neither one missed a step and
they danced figures that would have
surprised even Helen Dargan and Eu
gene Haynes. When the music finally
stopped the Rainwaters w’ere actually
applauded. More tango power to
them.
I CAN’T say that it was very cute,
nor that it was anything to pat
tern by, but oh. how funny it
was, that Hostless Tea at a leading
hotel the other day. You and I, who
know all the facts in the case, also
know that it makes a very interesting
topic of conversation, and one that
will be good for fresh laughs for some
time to come.
I just can’t help rehashing the in
cident—how a very good friepd of
mine burned the wires telephoning a
number of people to come to his part/.
They told him they would be dee-
lighted, and so—
They came. And sat around. And
talked. And laughed. And chatted.
And wondered all the time where
Friend Host could be.
For he, you know, was not there.
He didn't get there at all, the af
ternoon long. Let me smile a whiie
Now. I am not going to tell you
why. even if you and I are the dear
est friends in the world, and even if
I have been talking out of my heart
and soul to you for months. Because,
for one reason. I don't know’ exact
ly. 1 can only guess, and that is a
privilege that you have as well. And
as yob know him as well as I— oh.
but never mind about the guessing.
Maybe it was only his conscience that
kept him away.
Anyhow, my little part in this mat
ter is charitable, even if I do say it.
Some of the guests of this Host-Who-
Didn't-Show-Up are a little bit vexed,
and I am trying to tell them they
shouldn't feel that way about our
friend. There, there, good foiks, for
get your peevishness, and laugh with
me at the Hostless Tea.
* * •
I —, AR be it *rom me to mention any
names, but have you noticed the
long line of bachelors and wid
owers wearing long faces these days.
The reasion. of course, is the marriage
of 1 Mrs. J. R Whitehead. I would
love to know the number of men more
than 25 years old who have proposed
to Mrs. Whitehead in the last two
years. A goodly percentage of the
unmarried men in town thought it
w r as their mission in life to make a
home for that handsome widow. One
almost descrepit beau remarked to
me not long since:
"Isn’t it a shame that a home-lov
ing woman like Mrs. Whitehead has
to live at a hotel? Wouldn’t It be
fine if she married a man of middle
age to look after her?”
"What do you mean by middle-
age?" 1 asked.
"I’m middle-aged,” he said se
riously.
* * *
S PEAKING of widows and wid
owers. there is a widower bless-
ed with lots of worldly goods
who intends soon to follow the lead
of Mrs. Whitehead. His home is not
so many blocks from her Peachtree
street house, and I expect the an
nouncement of his engagement will
cause almost as much of a flutter as
did thq news of Mrs. Whitehead's
marriage.
* * *
While I am clattering about wed
dings and w idows and w idowers and
other things. I want to say one more
word about the way the . younger
swains behave, or rather misbehave,
at wedding parties. If I had my way,
we would go back to the old custom
of having a secluded buffet for the
exclusive use of the intimate friends
of the bride's father. The women
could get along veVy well without
anything to drink, and the youngsters
who don’t know how to behave when
they have it should be kept w’eJl away
from it. Many of mv sisters, and
little brothers, will fuss at .me for
this idea, but I don't care if they do
— I mean every word of it.

Hookless Gown With
No Buttons, Is Next
CHICAGO. Dec. 6.—From the
hands of milady’s clothes builder

ders—a buttonless, hookless gown!
It requires neither patience nor a
