In regard to dress, there was less
formal attire than one might have
imagined. The English paid no special
attention to dress. High hats and frock-
coats, once a combination that would
never have been sanctioned, were
quite popular; but there were some
countries which put all they knew into
their attife. These were, notably, the
Japanese, and some of the South
American states.

The New Age.
A pretty Philadelphia girl at a
Newport dance wore a rose-colored
gown of the new “bareback” fashion.
Very decollete in front, the gown’s
bodice in the rear opened in a broad
V almost to the waist. There were
no sleeves to the rose-colored gown;
on the contrary it was cut out under
the arms like the jerseys worn by ath-
letes. It had, to be sure, a dainty
wisp of a train, bitt nevertheless the
flimsy skirt was so exiguous that as
the girl whirled about the ballroom
to the wild strains of the jazz band
it was frequently possible to see that
her garters had ruby buckles.
A Philadelphia matron sald to
George Gould as the girl floated past:
“Joan is a lovely creature, but all
her interests are wrapped in clothes.”
“Evidently her interests only,
ma’am,” said Mr. Gould with a cyni-
cal smile.
‘Please, Doctor, Make Us Pretty!
Dr. Seymour Oppenheimer of New
York writes to the Medical Record ex-
pressing the hope that the long strides
made in what is called “cosmetic” sur-
gery during the war may not be lost
to the civil population.
He says that this surgery for the
sole purpose of beautifying ugly ‘per-
sons was always considered “rather a
shady business” in which no reputable
surgeon would engage.
But there are so many ugly faces
and their beautification would make
their owners happy, some surgeon the
richer by a fee, and the world at large
happier for not being obliged to look
at ugliness, that this is the auspicious
moment for taking cosmetic surgery
cut of the hands of charlatans and
quacks and putting it into those of
skilled practitioners.
Rather Ominous.
Among the presents given toa rural
bride was one from an old lady in the
neighborhood with whom the bride
and the groom were prime favorites.
Some years before the old lady had
accumulated a number of cardboard
mottoes, which she worked and
framed as occasion arose.
In cheerful blues and reds, suspend-
ed by a cord of the same colors, over
the table on which the other presents
were gathered, hung this motto:
“Fight On; Fight Ever.”
along in what he found later to be
the wrong road. When he woke up to
the situation he found that he and
the wagon had gone more than three-
quarters of a mile out of the way and
then he discovered that he had lost
himself and had been doing extra
work for nothing. When at last the
driver lifted his head and fourd what
had happened he cursed the horse
for not knowing better than to pass
by his own stable—Worcester Eve-
ning Post.
F-mous Carryalia.
The two most famous carryalls ip
Washington are owned by Senator
Edge of New Jersey and United States
Marshal Splain of the District of Co-
lumbia. The senator's cenveyance, a
high-powered automobile, is famed be-
cause it carries license No. 1 from the
state of New Jersey. The number is
not much wider than a lead pencil and
it certainly looks peculiar fastened on-
to the big green car. Marshal Splain’s
hack is one of the grand old one-horse-
shey variety. He uses it because con-
gress has persistently refused to sup-
ply a gasoline bus for him. In order
to maintain an even keel he has to sit
in the exact center of the seat. If he
sits on one side the hack lists heavily
either to the port or starboard and he
has to cling tightly to the cushion to
prevent his going overboard.

Australian Gold Output Falling.
Gold production of western Austra-
lia continues to show a steady decline.
During the six months ended June 30,
1919, the total Australian production
amounted to 573,279 fine ounces, of
which western Australia furnished
410,428 ounces. For the first six
months of 1918 the Australian produc-
tion was 641,911 ounces, the state of
western Australia furnishing 443,983
ounces. During the first six months
of 1917 the total production amounted
to 727,995 ounces, of which amount
western Australia furnished 490,466
ounces. It is stated that the cause of
this decline is increased working ex-
penses due to high wages and the high
cost of machinery and materials. It
is not expected that much, if any,
improvement can be looked for in the
fmmediate future.

in a Class by Himself.
A gentleman in the engraving busi-
aess on Broadway, New York, was
greatly annoyed by the tardiness of
one of his skilled engravers. Calling
him into the office one morning he
said: “Mr. Brown, 1 get here at 8:30
every morning and look over my mail;
at 9 o'clock I look out the window and
see Mr. Rockefeller on his way to the
office; at 9:30 Mr. J. P. Morgan passes
on his way to the bank; at 10 I see
Mr. Vanderbilt going by; at 10:30 Mr.
Taft passes on the way to his office;
at 11 you come in: Who the. are

Protecting Your Family
Keeping the wolf from your door is
often taken too figuratively. But itis
not an idle joke, to be ridiculed or ig-
nored.
To keep the wolf from your door re-
quires weapons more powerful than
implements of war. It requires a de-
fense that cannot be bought or borrow-
Sq is gained through practice of
thrift.
To save is to insure yourself and your
family protection.
Every man owes himself and his fam-
ily the protection of a savings account

this one. Start an account to protect
