"There is a moral / r I in the receiver story. , "A man , you know , said one day to a little boy : . . " 'Well , Tommy : , what are you go ing to be when you grow up ?

' Last Word as to Millinery for the Coming Season Has Been Said- Profusion of Strange and , Beautiful Things. No work has been too intricate or painstaking for the maker of fancy feathers for the coming winter season. . Women will certainly be a feathered throng so far as their millinery is concerned , for the stores are deluged with wings , bands , pompons , sprays and even ostrich plumes with new and strange markings or branched with airy aigrettes. One wonders where all the ideas came from and it is certain that an . . : ! 'r" army of people must have been long busy , fashioning these new and strange and beautiful feather decora- tions. Smart , to the last degree , is the pompon ( military style ) of Spanish coque , such as the Italian army offi- cers wear on their hats. Miladi has borrowed this crisp , dignified decora- tion for her turban of fur or velvet. The coque feather is an expensive lux- ury , but it is elegant and never out of style. There are innumerable made wings In which each separate feather is sewed to a foundation. They are single and in pairs , and many mem- bers of the world of birds who are natural enemies , are represented in these creations. They lie down in 'piece" together as the facetious ex press it. Among the airiest are the new mountings of ostrich into sprays or aigrettes. They will form a substitute for the aigrette which is forbidden in some states and which one may not wear with a perfectly easy conscience. The made fancy feathers are nearly all the result of intelligent designing , with feathers of domestic or other edi- ble fowls , and their manufacture gives work to thousands of families. No one need have scruples against wear- ing them , or against the ostrich plume or fancy ostrich feathers. The pieces pictured , and others like them , make the work of the home- milliner easy. Given a good , graceful shape and one of these feathers , the trimming problem solves itself. VOGUE FOR BLACK VELVET Use of the Supple Material for Gar- ments of All Kinds Has Now Become General. The vogue for black velvet reached its height when some Paris designers allied it with English eyelet embroid- ery. People gasped , stared and then as quickly : as possible went and did likewise. It is not surprising to see how general the use of this' ' supple material-for . it must be supple-is. . It edges the filmy materials of eve ning gowns. A broad band of velvet is used at the hem or to gather in the fullness of a tunic. This note is repeated on the sleeves that might suggest too little strength of weave to sustain the weight , but it can be done with safety and undeniable ef- fect. fect.Black Black velvet with lace is another combination that is charming. Span- ish i ! ' lace , in white , black or colors , is relieved by strips and panels of vel vet that gives a rich body to any filmy gown and affords contrast in textures. As rosettes , girdles or pipings the use of black velvet is without limit. The color itself serves to bind togeth- er two contrasting shades into a veritable harmony. Again , it gives a HUP of contrast between two tones of I one color ! thus I strengthening a schpmp and emphasizing lines. I I Sashes are a dominant note this : I. season. Of black velvet , fringed with I heavy silk or allied in unexpected ways : with chiffon or tulle , a sash will ! add nsti:1 tion to the simplest frock. I The sensible way is to make it ad I I , justable , for the friendly black } can b * I' .

They are combined with gold on silver embroidery or with wonderful beaded plastrons that reflect the colors of the I rainbow. When you discover the magnificent evening wraps of black velvet that are friendly in that they will grace ! any colored costume , then , indeed , the full significance of beauty will burst I upon you. These can be lined with metallic tulle under chiffon ; they can be lined with soft hand-painted satin or brocaded silk , and are so lovely on the inner surface that many own- ers will be tempted to turn them in side out for a change. , But remember that black velvet is the fabric for this autumn and win. ter ! VALUE OF THE CRASH APRON Smart Garment Especially Adapted for the Girl Who Is Fond of ' Fancy Work. ! Infinitely practical looking and i therefore certain to be of comfort to I the average fancy worker , are the cretonne headrests in flowered and Dutch paterns , which need merely to be braid outlined , or the French linen block print table and pillow covers , which come in cretonne patterns and require only to be braid and fringe I finished. To keep these "unspotted" from the world while in the course of their put- ting together , some young women are making for themselves white and blue crash aprons furnished with four deep pockets formed by simply turning up the lower edge to the required depth and edging It with wide braid. Into such pockets may be placed the materials for teacloths to be bordered with the lace crochet , of which there are are many beautiful patterns , in- cluding a rose design not unlike that seen in genuine Irish crochet. Cluny machine made laces are used to trim scarfs , tablecloths , luncheon oloths , buffet covers and doilies , while for those women who fancy the quaint rather than the novel are linen illus- trating household replenishings with Kate Greenway stories in colors haiv monizing one with another. SERGE DRESS \ > ( : \ II I l 1 . i1 4. ' l , . - White serge made up in this style Is very useful. The skirt is the favor ite pleated style ; the little overbod- ice , which can be worn with separate slips , is prettily braided with white Russia braid. Hat of mauve straw , turned up both front and back , and trimmed with wide mauve ribbon and .small pink roses. Material required , 6 yards 46 inches wide. A Trimming Revival. The ribbon lacing of a decade age is being much revived. This is much used on simple house gowns , tea gowns of negligees. The buttonholes may be cut in the material and work- ed with heavy buttonhole twist to match or if broad ribbon is used the openings can be bound in bias silk or velvet. These are newer than crochet rings covered with heavy : twist or rope silk to match the costume. A soft , pliable ribbon is used , much , wider than the buttonhole , so It falls ; into folds. The ends are draw to a point with a gold or . . . . silver ' tassel , ' 01 or } t ment. . " . " Braided Rugs. Braided rugs , round and oval , it blues , whites and blacks , with a faint weaving of ruse or soft red , are to be used in front of bedroom fireplaces this winter. College people will de light in the rugs designed especially for- them. They are made up in the dn'ferent college combinations of col : ors .and. any special insignia or year Lwun " b ( woten in \ L wo en to order. These rugs are not expensive. _ e' A " I - ' 'W WHY NEW ORLEANS CITY IS LOGICAL POINT FOR i WORLD'S PANAMA EXPOSITION. Its Geographical Position and Many Other Considerations Mark It as Mcst Suitable Spot for Dedi- cation of Great Work. Public sentiment has decided that the completion of the Panama Canal in 1915 shall be celebrated with a great International Exposition in which all the nations of the world may participate ; and the question of where this Exposition is to be held will be settled by Congress at its ap proaching session. New Orleans and San Francisco are contesting for the honor of hold- ing this Exposition , and both cities have guaranteed immense sums of money as an evidence of their ability to finance so great an enterprise. An Exposition worthy of the term "World's Fair , " such as New Orleans proposes to build , will be a great ed ucational movement. Its success as such , however , will depend entirely upon' the percentage of our popula- tion who can secure its educational advantages , this in turn , depends up- on its location , as the time in travel- ing to and from the Exposition , and the cost in railroad and Pullman fares , are the most important factors. Considering these matters , New Orleans' claims to being the "Logi- cal Point" for this Panama Exposi- tion , seem to be fully substantiated by the following facts- New Orleans is 500 miles from the center of population in the United States. San Francisco is 2,500 miles distant therefrom. , Within a radius of 500 miles from New Orleans there are 17,500,900 people. Within the same radius from San Francisco there are only 2,000,000. Within a radius of 1,000 miles from New Orleans , there are 65,000,000. Within the same radius from San Francisco there are only 0,000,000. At an average of 900 miles from New Orleans , there are 70 of our principal cities with a combined population of 20000000. Averaging 900 miles from San Francisco there are only 8 large cities , with a com- bined population of just 1,000,000. The average distant of all these cities to New Orleans is 792 miles- : to San Francisco 2,407 miles. Over 75 per cent. of the people of the United States could go to an Exposition there at an average ex- pense for railroad fare of $12.50 , as against an average ofx $37.50 to the Pacific Coast ; and for several mil- lions of our people , the Pullman fare and Dining Car expenses alone , for a trip to San Francisco , would amount to more than all their trans- portation expenses for a trip to New Orleans. This is an important public ques- tion to be settled by Congress at the session which convenes in December. Many of our readers will wish to visit this World's Panama Exposi- tion , and if held in New Orleans a great many more could spare the time and money for the trip than could go to San Francisco. There- fore , we urge our readers to write to the two senators from this State and the congressman from this district , requesting them to support New Or- leans in the contest. Trouble in the Troupe.
