Winter is ap- proaching and with it the season of Jindoor social functions: This natur- Jally brings the gowns into the immediate foreground i women. The displays gowns in the shops and studios fashionable dressmakers are unusual- ly interesting and attractive this fall The? materials shown are be wildering in their beauty and tich- ness and elaborate two piece and ticular. prominence in the displays. Not in many, years has this type of model taken on such novelty, variety and elegance as it embodies this fall. Many of the new materials are pe- suliatly adapted t6 its ives and the adfor combination effects in ma- terials has admirable * opportunities in connection with this class of cos- tumes. All the famous makers seem to have realized these facts and from every hguse' come models that are'in some ingtances more novel than bedu- tiful, but rarely fail to be interest- ing. Velvet and plush and matelasse figure conspicuously as cont mater - ials in these models and indeed are frequently used for entire costumes, though the smartest achievements are in combinations.

Blaek stocks, so generally worn a few years ago, have certainly come into their own ageinf There is no fixed style for them.

A pre- dominating style is.a straight sol- Tar ozone made of folds of the ma- terial, with tabs, crossed loops, four-in-rand tie or merely trimmings of black buttons.

The four-inch- wide cuffs turn back from the hand and button snugly at the back by mieans of little loops worked in col- ered linen pearl buttons trims the outer edges of the cuffs and collar. Button trimmings are very. im- portant in the neckware world this season. Rhinestones, small crystal and satin-covered buttons are used, and very often the buttons are sewed on with thread in a contrasting. col- ot, which adds charm and novelty: Collars and cuffs of bright-colored elbth or velvet are seen on sdine of the new suits. For instance, a suit of beige color had a collar of tur quoise blue velvet, or the collar of gray-and-white striped spit was of chamois-eolored cloth. + temas vo STRAY TOPICS FROM + TITTLE OLD NEW YORK EEEEPE SE EEE ee New York; Oct. 12. According to the tax lists for the next year, which have-been opened for inspec tion, the assessed values of real es- tate in Greater New York have in- creased nearly 200,000,000 since fast year.

Of course the high eost of living was used as pretext. If the myanagers bad simply raised the prices of the various food- stuffs on their menus, it would pro- bably not have been particularly no- ticed. But their decision to extort an extra charge of ten cents a plate for bread and butter from every one of their'patrons, attracted universal attention and caused many indignant Protests and resentment on the part of their patrons. It isa rather pe- duliar fact that oven wealthy per- sons, who cam well afford to spend from: 2 to 5 or even more for a single meal and who willingly pay 1 tips to the waiters, rebel against petty extortion in'the form of a 10-cent charge for bread and butter. It would take considerable courage for a man weighing 300 pounds to entrust himself to so fragil and in- secure a vehicle as an aeroplane, yet this feat was accomplished the other day. The heavyweight was not ticularly anxious to take a trip through the air, but the chance of winning 100 on a bet proved an in- centive strong enough to overcome his fear.
