Bewitching French Neckwear of the Season
EW YORK, Sept. Ml. The French,
neckwear displayed In the iihopi
which make a specialty of uch
novelties grows more bewitch
Ing day by day. and one may
spend an appalling amount on
N
the dainty hand mad trifled, if
one la willing and able to do It.
The hand embroidered linen collar,
which queened It over all other neckwear
last season and often brought astonishing
rrlrea are still on th fashionable list, but
now they are forced to share their reign
with a host of stock arrangements, and the
frilly lingerie Jabots and bows, etc.. which
were worn with the linen collars, find tholr
prototypes In the similarly frilly arrange
ments which are associated with the stocks.
In this latter case, however, the frllla are
-isually attached to the stocks Inatead of
being separate accessories.
In Its simplest form tha new stock for
wear with oollarless Mouses Is merely a
closa high collar, sometimes higher at
sides and back than In front, and finished
at the bottom with a narrow oravat of
soma kind, which will cover the line of
union between collar and neckband. These
collars are made of tucked, corded or em
broidered lingerie material, with or without
Inset lines of lace, and are usually finished
at the top by a plaited frill, though many
good modela are without any frill at all.
and others have the narrowest possible
plaiting, which may bo becoming to the
woman who cannot wear one of the modish
wide frills.
Some of the very prettiest of these col
lars are of plaited lingerie stuff with yar
row lines of real baby Irish lace dividing
the groups of tucka, and often Inatead of
a sntln cravat a narrow cravat of the baby
Irish Is used, the Insertion being bound
narrowly on each edge with the batiste or
lawn and finished at tha ends with little
Irish dangles of soma sort.
Other stocks hava the close high collar
with plaited frills around top and bottom,
and while the ruche at tha top may range
from a quarter Inch to two Inches In width,
the one at the bottom may be narrow and
may bo four or five Inches deep, spreading
out flat over a plain corsage or gulmpe.
Tha width of tha plaiting around tha bot
tom of the collar is usually graduated, be
ing greater at the back than on the shoul
ders, and sometimes attaining considerable
dimensions In front, as In one of the models
sketched here. In which the plaited frill
falls like a rounded bib over the corsage
front
Another model whlch figures among the
cuts has a deep point In front and a tiny
cravat of taffeta bound with lawn encircles
the base of tha throat and ties In a small
bow, whoso ends are finished with minute
plaltlngs of lawn.
In the same group with this effective col
lar was a high collar of tuoked net and
real Valenciennes, finished at top and bot
tom by plaJted frills of the Valenciennes.
A narrow folded scarf of net was drawn
around the collar Just below the top frill
and knotted onoe In front, the long ends
widening and trimmed In lace insertion
and edging.
Fin net Is used quite as often as lingerie
materials for such stocks. In fact, net may
now ba reckoned among tha lingerie stuffs.

Bishop Grafton on Sunday Base Ball.
Bishop Grafton of the Episcopal dlocess
Of Fond du Lae, Wis., whose attention
was called to an attack on Sunday baseball
by one of hia clergy, gave the following
f"d hl? W" 00 much CUBal -
tlon: "Whether any recreation on Sunday
a allowable must depend upon the Individ-
ual conscience. If recreation Interferes
with his primal duty to God then It ought
to be given up, and while a number of
devout Christians would abstain from the
recreation named, there are others who
look at basebtill games or attend a free
concert at the park, which Is not harmful
to their spiritual life, they having done
their duty by attending In the morning
the divine worship prescribed by Christ.
Sunday Is a day of devotion, rest and rec
reation. While the church forbids all ser
vile work that can be avoided, It does
not Interfere with any recreation that does
not Interfere with a Christian's devotional
duty.

you were a woman that voted. You look
like such a comfortable woman!"
itnco arier a meeting in one 01 me poorer
sections of Denver, a little old woman went
UD to Mrs. Decker and asked whether alio
might be permitted to "bring the family"
to a meeting which had been announced
under six feet tall..
Hut Mrs. Decker was equal to the oc-
Caslon, and aBked for the absent member
of th. family. "W. 11. you see, dad sells
ni. vote." replied one of the "children'
awkwardly. "We're noways proud of dad;
but mother Is all right and we always vote
like she tells ua to." From this It may ba
seen that a woman does not lose her "in
fluence" by possessing the ballot.
