takes un a m atnartneaa under clever
hands, and the chic frock of tills type Is a
far cry from the ordinary models shown
rom Grand meet to Harlem.
The quality of the silk, the cut, the hang
of the jkirt, the daintiness of gulmpe and
Sleeves, the trimming details, all help to
differentiate the Kmart from the common.
One exclusive firm has been offering a
special model of this class at a price sur
prialngly low fur any frock turned out by
this bouse. The quality of the tAffeta Is
good. The skirt la a plain kilted model,
put hangs well, nnd the plaits are deeply
laid so that the fullnoss Is adequate.
The Juniper bodice, attached to the skirt
by a narrow stitched band, la excellently
cut and Is finished around neck nnd sleeve

In the beat possible form.
Aa for the gulmpe frocks In linen and the
trulmpe bodices, forming Integral parts f
Liree-rilce costumes, they are legion and
are either made with gulmpe and sleeves
srttached or Intended for wear over separate
blouses. One thing should be observed In
this matter. The sleeveless overblouse. it
the blouse with kimono sleeve or sleeve
Cap, should be associated with a sleeve
on the new lines, rather full and with the
fullness dropping toward the elbow. A
bloune with the very moderate sleeves on
modified leg of mutton lines, such as were
common last season, does not associate
amicably with the new gulmpe armhole or
Oversleeve and the owner of a gulmpe
frock should appreciate that fact.

Moreover, one finds the picturesque little

out, absurdly enough, with sleeves of lace

drapery of the coat often being elaborately
trimmed. One of the most attractive
pongee models we have seen had a ooat
Illustrating this point.
The pongee was of the pure French
shantung sort and of a light cafe an lalt
tone. The skirt was plainly plaited, but the
adorable little coat was considerably
trimmed In braid and cord and pendent
ornaments of cafe au lalt shot through
with black and gold threads.
Inset on the shoulders, like epaulettes
laid underneath the front and black plaits
of the loose little coat, were wide strips of
black satin embroidered slightly In gold.
The huge armholea were braided, and In
tbera were set full, drooping, three-quarter
sleeves of white chiffon and lace.
Pongees figure conspicuously among the
best models. In bodice and skirt frocks,
ooat and skirt, costumes and three-piece
costumes. Prety coat and skirt frocks In
shantung, rajah, etc, are often accom
panied by blouse of net, preferably filet,
dyed Jo match the silk and trimmed In silk
or soutache and In cream lace.
Very frequently the little coats are pro
fusely embroidered by hand In self-color
soutache, and perhaps the skirt also is
elaborately braided, but in many cases the
skirt is plain and all the ornamentation Is
lavished upon the coat. These frocks are
shown in the natural shades. In browns,
blues and grays, and some of the lighter
Copenhagen blues and the hydrangea blues
are especially attractive, though the nat
ural tones are favorites.

False Hair and Fads.
Fads, sooner or later, are sure of cap
tivating the feminine world. A good ex
ample of this Is to recall the sentiment
that existed against the manufactured curls
when they were first Introduced. They
ere frightful horrors when worn by oth
ers, but now tirey are the very life of one's
soul when they cover one's own halo. So
this goes to prove that the woman who
laughs at wigs today may live to wear a
wig tomorrow. There's no telling. But
the ludicrous part of the adoption of fads
Is that they are not accepted Just ha!f
way they are adopted, heart and soul
why. In this same Instance, the false hair
mania has spread like prairie fire. The
world over has been searched for human
hair for the heart's Joy and the head's
ornamentation) of the modern women. Go
Into any hair shop and you will see the
candidates for new hair subjecting their
bowed heads to the sampling process.
Taste la Dress.
Shakespeare says that dress oft pro
claims a man and this undoubtedly In
cludes the woman, and the selection of
gowns is also a good Index to her charac
ter. It Is not alwaya the one that spends
the most on her clothes that Is dressed in
good taste, but rather the one who can
afford so few frocks that she sticks to
plain modes and colors beat suited to her.
The well dressed girl will pay particular
attention to shoes, gloves, veils and the
little finishing touches that gives style to a
plain costume. It takes considerable time
and thought to always appear well dressed,
but It pays, as It onets less In the end and
better results and service Is obtained than
the careless Indifferent women with price
as no object, and Is content to wear "Just
anything."

Occasion of the Visit.
The visit of these officials Is the result
of the agitation incident to the abandon
ment of the electric mall service from the
Omaha main office to the outlying substa

turning to the old-time and tedious pro
cess of screen wagon delivery. It appears
the rate paid for street car delivery Is In
excess of the contract rate existing be
tween the Postoffice department and the
railways, though the government was not
called upon to pay the excess, that being
paid by the contractor. This practice has
