RIBBONS GROW
IN IMPORTANCE
o IBBONS, which have so long been
-tX. accessory to everything in ap-
parel, have progressed until they enter
into the making of as many garments
as they have adorned. They are pres-
ent in every sort of dress, from the
simplest street frock to the most com-
plicated of evening gowns—not merely
as accessories, but as a part of the
garment, or as its trimming. At the
same time they flourish in accessories
and in millinery as never before. The
new season will bring us tailored
clothes with ribbon vests or with rib-
bon ruches for trimming, or ribbon ap-
plique and simulated embroideries, and
numberless ribbon garnishings, and
adornments on afternoon and evening
dresses promise an interesting theme,
of which we had the beginning in the
early spring.
It plays a modest but indispensable
part in the handsome afternoon dress
of which a picture appears here. This
model for the coming season is made
of georgette crepe <*ver a satin slip.
and one can imagine it in any of the
seasoh’s rich, dark colors, livened by
the introduction of touches of vivid
color in the embroidery. A long tunic
is box-plaited, divided at the sides
from waist to hem and rounded at the
bottom. The back portion overlaps the
front at each side and this feature in
the construction of the dress is brought
out by the ribbon border that finishes
the tunic about the edges. The bodice
is cut in the kimono style, with three-
quarter-length sleeves, also bordered
with ribbon, xYn embroidered panel at
the front of the bodice provides a pat-
tern that is repeated at the bottom of
the tunic. It is a large pattern and
mainly in the same color as the dress
and its ribbon border.
The same ribbon is used for an in-
genious and pretty girdle. The girdle
slips under the ribbon border at each
side and turns into two flat loops that
make an unexpected and attractive
finishing touch for the waistline.
Wide Variety in Blouses
ryAHBRE are two points
J. the creators of blouses and
smocks appear to agree; they are ma-
terials and the management of the
neckline. In everything else each ap-
pears to be independent of the others,
hut these two items are enough to give
the styles coherence. Voile, batiste,
georgette provide the sheer materials;
crepe de chine, silk shirtings and satin
answer for heavier ones, and in style
there is everything from very man-
nish. high-necked shirts with narrow
plaited bosoms, high collars, long
sleeves, to elaborately embroidered
georgette affairs with short sleeves and
neck either round or having a collar.
With all this variety the blouses, espe-
cially those of sheer cottons, are un-
usually tasteful.
The hand-made blouse, in fine cot-
tons, continues to do honor to needle
women, holding first place as a dainty
utility garment for daily wear, in the
estimation of the best dressed women.
These blouses are prettily decorated
with drawn work, hemstitching, fine
tucks, plaitings and trimmings of lace,
filet still holding its own as the best
choice in laces. Many of the tailored
blouses are long sleeved, as they
should be, but there are plenty of ex-
ceptions to the rule in this matter. The
three-quarter length sleeve is a happy
compromise between the popular elbow
and the long sleeve. The best liked
collars are those that are high at the
back, with “V”-shaped opening at the
front. They are made Of the same ma-
terial as the blouse and trimmed to
correspond.
One of the new blouses, shown
above, emphasizes embroidery. The
front is extended into a peplum and is
covered with it. Since there is so
much of it in this position it is neces-
sary to practice some reticence in the
rest of the blouse; therefore the
sleeves have none and are finished
with a binding. The round neck is al-
lowed a very simple pattern outlining
its shape. The color contrasts are not
bold, but pleasing and soft.
Bolsheviki Peace Teims to
Poles Revealed in London
London.—The terms submitted by
M. Danischevsky, head of the bolshev-
iki delegates at Minsk at Thursday’s
session of the Russo-Polish ’Deace con-
ference are given in a dispatch from

istration under control of mixed com-
missions and special commissions con-
stituted by the trade unions.

nesty.

U. S. and France Agree
On Polish Question
Washington.—The American and
French governments are in entire
agreement in principle as to the fu-
ture of both Poland and Russia, Sec-
retary Colby declared Wednesday in
formal statement interpreting
France’s rejoinder to the American
note to Italy. His statement accom-
panied publication of the translation
of the’ French note which was deliv-
ered to the state department August
14 by Prince de Bearn, the French
charge.
France’s declaration “of its opposi-
tion to the dismemberment of Russia”
is “most gratifying,” Mr. Colby said,
and added:
“The response is a notable declara-
tion from every viewpoint and brings
to the position taken by the United
States a striking emphasis and power-
ful position.”
The secretary of state referred to
French recognition of General Wran-
gel in South Russia as “a divergence
between the two governments on one
point,” but said the United States
was “disposed to regard the declared
agreement of France with the prin-
ciples of the United States as of more
significance than any divergence
policy involved in the specific action
of France in this single respect.”

Calomel salivates!
acts like dynamite on a sluggish liver. wnen
calomel comes into contact with sour bile it
crashes into it, causing cramping and nausea.
Take “Dodson’s Liver Tone” Instead!
If you feel bilious, headachy, con-
stipated and ail knocked out, just go
to your druggist and get a bottle of
Dodson’s Liver Tone for a few cents,
which is a harmless vegetable substi-
tute for dangerous calomel. Take a
spoonful and if it doesn’t start your
liver and straighten you up better
and quicker than nasty calomel and
without making you sick, you just go
back and get your money.
If you take calomel today you’ll be
sick and nauseated tomorrow; be-
sides, it may salivate you, while if
you take Dodson’s Liver Tone you will
wake up feeling great, full of ambi-
tion and ready for work or play. You
can give it to children, too.—Adv.
Benefits In Disguise.
“This house is rather old, isn’t itT*
said the prospective tenant.
“Oli, no,” assured the real estate
agent. “This house is comparatively
modern.”
“But these stairs creak terribly,"
complained the prospective tenant.
“Oli,” explained the agent, “this Is
the latest modern improvement in
homes. That is a patent burglar
alarm staircase. No burglar can get
up to the bedroom floor without wak-
ing you up.”
When you have decided that the -worm*
or Tapeworm must be exterminated, get
“Dead Shot"—Dr. Peery’s Vermifuge. One
dose will clean them all out.—Adv.

“So you’ve bought a phonograph?”
“Yes,” said Mr. Dubwaite.

I’m just going to start a little opposi-
tion, that’s all.”—Birmingham Age-
I-Ierald.
"DANDERINE”
Stops Hair Coming Out;
Doubles Its. Beauty.
A few cents buys “Danderine.” Af-

life, vigor, brightness, more color and
thickness.—Adv.

FAMOUS OLD BOSTON ABODE
Province House, Once One of the Most
Famous Colonial Mansions, Has
Been Partially Preserved.
There stands today on Bossworth
court in Boston but a portion of the
old Province house, a most interesting
relic of Colonial days; and the rest
of the court is lined with modern of-
fice buildings. But in 1820 it was con-
sidered a( very genteel part of town.
Oliver Wendell Holmes lived in the
old Province house for 18 years.
At the farther end of the court
stands an iron-wrouglit archway, dec-
orative of design, Which was used in
the early part of the .nineteenth cen-
tury as an entrance to the governor’s
gay(©n, a part of the Province house
grounds. This has been carefully pre-
served, as have the stone steps which
lead to the lower level. The Province
bouse was immortalized by Hawthorne
in bis “Twice-Told Tales.”
The historic staircase now is gone,
a portion of the exterior of
if left. It was built in 16()7
Sargent, a wealthy London
and was considered one of
est residences in town.

MISTAKEN IN HIS SURMISE
Mr. Brown Somewhat Hasty in Blam-
ing the Gramophone for Those
Unearthly Sounds.
Perfect peace reigned in the
Brown’s household. The head of the
family, his day’s work over, was read-
ing, in blissful anticipation of the eve-
ning meal which Mrs. Brown - was
busy preparing in the kitchen.
The gentle stillness was suddenly
broken by eerie sounds, apparently
coming from the next house—a weird
moaning, developing into heart-rend-
ing wails and harrowing shrieks.
Mr. Brown jumped up.
“It’s Mrs. Wood’s confounded gram-
ophone playing Tosti’s ‘Good-by’ ”
he cried. “Lizzie”—to his oldest
daughter—“go and implore her to stop
it! Tell her I’m ill—tell her -we’re
all ill, anything you like, only make
her leave off!”
The child obediently hurried out,
gnd two minutes later came rushing
back.
“It’s not Mrs. Wood’s gramophone,
dad,” she said. “It’s the Murphys
down the street opening a tin <v
corned beef!”
Only Thinks He Is.
“Mrs. .Tones, is your husband a
member of any secret society?” “He
thinks he is, but he talks in his
sleep.”
