Wins Divorce Under Old Law.
Judge Martin, of Norfolk, Va., de

'Allentown, Pa., against Thomas H.
Haynor, a prominent Norfolk busi

tion, with permanent alimony, of $75
ler month.
Tb'ls Is Just such a case that pro
posed divorce legislation now being

ent law It Is optional with the plain
tiff only whether after three years,
application shall be made for per

marriage. Proposed s'.ianges would
give the defendant similar rights.
New Trade Union.
' Mrs. Eva MacDonald Valesh Is at
the head of the movement to establish
a new trade union among the working
women of America. The object of
this movement is to get rid of the

effect the present Woman's Trade
( Union League. In an address deliv
ered recently before the Woman's
Forum of New York City Mrs. Valesh
ald: "I propose to start a campaign
against socialism. This shirtwaist
strike may be used to pave the way
for forming clean, sensible labor
onions, and I want to enroll every
woman of leisure, every clubwoman,
In the movement. The existing unions
are not doing what they ought to stem

May Cuyler Not Welcome.
Mrs. Ava Astor is far from being
the only victim of the tardy purllan
Ism of King Edward. It is an old
story that the Duke of Marlborough
was omitted from a list of Invitations
to a dinner of the Knights of the Gar
ter because of his matrimonial diffi
culties with the former Consuelo Van
derbilt, and Lord Alexander Thynne,
brother of tbe Marquis of Bath, also
has found himself persona non grata
at court because his name was
brought into the gossip connected
with the Marlborough case. May
Cuyler, of Morrlstown, N. J., was a
prominent figure In English society
when she still was the wife of Sir
Philip Grey-Egerton, but since Bhe
was divorced and became the -wife of
Richard McCreery she has been
tarred from the royal lnclosures In
Ascot and Goodwood and has been
notified that her presence is not de
sired at court. New Yr,k Press.
Being a Bridesmaid.
Of course it is a delightful compli
ment to be asked to take a prominent
part in that pretty pageant, a wed
ding, but the popular girl invited to
officiate as bridesmaid more than the
proverbial "three times and out" finds
such functions a drain on her finan
cial resources.
Each bride wants her weddin? to
be "unique" in some particular and
likes her bridesmaids' gowns to be ex
clusive. She decides upon some ra
ther unusual color scheme, and there
must be a general likeness between
the costumes. Even if all wear white,
the various accessories, ribbons,
gloves, slippers, hosiery, hat, xery
likely, and the "extra touch" of fancy
muff or boa, brings the expense to a
considerable total.
It is not very often that the bride
gives the dress or hat, though she
often tries to make the expense com
mensurate with the means of her
friends. She oftens suggests a dress
maker who will reduce her prices a
little in consideration of the number
of gowns to be made practically alike.
One girl who expected to take part
In several bridal processions bought a
new gown for the first occasion. It
wbb very fine white batiste. Instead
of wearing it she laid it aside. Yel
low was the color for a chrysanthe
mum wedding in November. She
bought cheap yellow silk for a prin
cess slip to wear under it, and match
ing accessories end a great Bheaf of
yellow "mums," attended as maid at
a quiet home affair.
v The next wedding was a mauve one,
and she sent her white gown to the
dyer's. This she wore over a white
slip. It took a slightly paler tint
than was desired, and in consequence
was less satisfactory. The next wed
ding was on the "rainbow" order, the
bride wearing white, the four maids
being gowned In pale pink, nlle green,
lemon yellow, and mauve. With vio
lets, a violet wreathed hat which she
made for herself, and the previously
worn accessories she made the once
wnite gown do duty again. The ex
pense of the four functions was to
her nearly $70 after all her ingenuity.
Philadelphia Bulletin
Told to Get R Cook.
If Frieda Farkas had stayed at
home and cooked for her husband In
stead of giving music lessons and If
William V. Farkas had not stayed out
late at night in furtherance of his
ambition to become a political leader
and a5 his wife says used stimulants,
the case of Farkas against Farkas
would not have been on the Supreme
Court calendar yesterday. These are
the chief causes that have led up to
a separation suit by Mrs. Farkas, who
asked Justice Platzek for an alimony
allowance.
Farkas is well known in the Hun
garian colony, where he Is a member
of literary, charitable and political
organizations. Also, he says In his
answer to his wife's suit, he has "con
ducted himself as a gentleman and
has been bred to treat women with
courtesy and respect." True, diffi
culties have arisen, "hut they were
only such as occur in every well regu
lated family, even to the mother-in-law."
Mrs. Farkas charged cruel treat
ment In her complaint. Farkas, she
alleged, used to stay out late at night,
and when she reproved him explained
that he had been organizing political
clubs and hoped to become a leader.
According to Farkas, the cause of
all the trouble was that his bachelor
dreams had not been realized. He
had led a bachelor life many years,
eating his meals anywhere, for it
made little difference to him. He
yearned for home-made meals. So
when he met his present wife and she
promised to mathtain a home for him
and devote herself to it he thought
he saw his dream realized. They
were married in December, 1908.
But, according to Farkas, he is still
eating out, the only difference being
that his wife eats out with him. In
stead of keeping the house, says the
defendant, his wife gives music les
sons, but the sweet strains are else
where, while the Farkas home Is
dreary. Mrs. Farkas does not have
to work, says Farkas, for he supplies
her with sufficient money.
Farkas' request for home-made
meals, he says, Is answered thus by
his mother-in-law:
"If you want a clean home, get ser
vants; if you want meals prepared,
get a cook. Your wife is not your
servant. -If the home is good enough
for her it is good enough for you."

Many a gown will have the skirt

ing length.
Dresses of colored embroidery on

gowns.
Large handbags are now out of

made of undressed kid.
Handwork more elaborate than
ever before is shown to advantage on
coats and gowns of wash materials.
Not only are nets, gauzes and gren
adines sown with beads, but also the

New York City. Simple as this
frock is, it can be made in a number
of ways. In the illustration is shown
one of the new ginghams piped with
striped material, and the dress Is
made unllned, worn with an open
neck and short sleeves. There Is a
body lining included, however, which
can be made in one with the gown or
quite separately, and used as a
gulmpe, and when treated in this way
it can be worn or omitted as occasion
requires. When the dress is made
unllned as Illustrated, It is especially
well adapted to washable materials
and there are numberless charming
and attractive ones included in the
new output. When the lining Is used
it becomes adapted to wool fabrics of
a simple sort. It can be made with
short or long or with double sleeves.
Just as illustrated, however, it is par
ticularly desirable, for it can be worn
without the gulmpe on a warm day,
wih it on a cold one.
The dress consists of waist and
skirt, which are joined by meaiis of a
belt. The waist Is finished with an
oddly shaped revers-collar and In
Fringe on Hats.
Fringe narrow silk fringe is
used to edge a new straw hat, and
very softening is it to the face. The
bows of ribbon, which are the sole
trimming, are also edged with the
same narrow fringe.
Drapery a Feature.
Drapery is still a commanding fea
ture. It is quite the thing to wear
something loose, that may be called
a wrap, though it is more an evolu
tion of the scarf.
lift
cludes simple plain sleeves that art
open for a portion of their length to

collar.
The quantity of material required
for tbe ten-year size Is five and three
eighth yards twenty-four or twenty
seven, four and a quarter yards thirty-two
Jr three and a quarter yards
forty-four inches wide for the dress;
one yard thlrty-Blx inches wide for

Tinted Hair Fashionable.
There is a good deal of talk In for
eign papers of the dyes employed In
Paris, but here natural tinted hair
is the vogue. Blond hair, especially
the dyed shades which foreigners so
often display in the street, is by no
means sought after, though, natural
ly, genuine blond hair I3 always glor- i
lous.
A "smoke-blue" broadcloth suit
has a natty little coat that is a clever
modification of the Russian tendency,
The 'skirt and waist are In one
piece. Stomach braid and self-covered
buttons form the trimming, while
the yoke is of "smoke-blue" dotted
net.
Quite Neat.
A new side-pleated frill has a
double Jabot of pleated net edged

BRADSTRETT'8 WEEKLY BEVIEW
Activity In Agricultural Sections and
Readjustments of Industries
Promising.
"Trade reports are rather more Ir
regular, with distribution rather less
active than in the preceding two
weeks. Retail trade so far has been
better than a year ago, but from many
centers reports are of the vojume ot
Jobbing trade not being up to expec
tations, for which high prices and" in
dustrial unrest are assigned as rea
sons. The two features really at
tracting chief Interest have been the
outburst of activity In agricultural
sections and the many movements to
ward readjustment In industrial lines.
"In the Industries some diverse
movements are shown. Pending set
tlement of wages, several hundred
thousand coal miners are reported
stopping work. In the cotton goods
trade the curtailment movement has
made further progress. Some reports
point to 60 per cent of Southern spin
dles being Idle as a result of inability
to run with present high prices ot raw
material. Recent reductions of
prices by Jobbers have brought out
varying responses. Northern cotton
mill curtailment is considerable,
though less marked than in the South,
because of different goods produced.
"On the other hand, a favorable dot
velopment, so far as purchasing pow
er is concerned, is the granting of
higher wages to 300,000 railroad em
ployes. Increased outdoor activities
are reflected in a rather better de
mand for building materials. There)
is contilnued activity in trou and steel,
but this is still reported to be partly
at the expense ot prices of the crude
forms. There Is a good trading go
ing forward in leather and shoes and
Eastern shoe shipments are equal to
1909.
"Business failures for the week end
ing March 31 in the United States
were 229 against 231 last week, 204
in the like week of 1909, 247 in 1908,
137 in 1907 and 151 in 1906."
