Afternoon frocks for more dressy occasions are quant and becoming to a degree; many of them look as if they might have been worn by grande dames of the period just following the French Revolution, with perhups a little added dignity. The taffetas, failles, and velvets favored for these gowns lend them selves particularly well to the drap eries now in vogue, panniers, poufs, and the loose panels of Watteau's fi gures. The tang of winter in the air r.e calls us all to the dignity of formal dinners, dunces, teas, and like occas sions, with their respective demands for more formul frocks thun those we have enjoyed all summer, our simple wash and taffeta models, so beeom ing and youthful-looking. This win ter. however, the added formality con sists merely of the addition of a few quaint ruffles, and draperies that will appeal to most of us very pleasingly. Overskirts Growing in Popularity Many of the imported gowns show the apron overskirt, usually made of chiffon, embroidered or heavily bead ed, combined with straight full skirts paneled with velvet, on cloth and silk frocks. Some of these models show a profusion of trimming; thers are simplicity and dignity itself, relying entirely on the cut and color combna tion for effect. Chiffon as a Trimming Many bolero effects are noticed on winter frocks and costume blouses, as corsage trimmings. Chiffon, heavily soutBched, and chiffon veilings play important parts in the scheme of trimmings. Many of the new blous es are made of lace or net, banded by several rows of moire ribbon, at the line of the bust, veiled by the chif fon. Dinner, Dance and Rail Gowns Dinner and ball frocks are extreme ly dainty and quaint this winter. The pannier, with its graceful draperies over contrasting underskirts of figur ed or flowered taffeta, or one of the charming em'broideried brocades of the moment, in silver or gold, Now and then one sees a ball or dinner gown of black satin, heavily trimmed with sparkling jet; there are many veiled models, too; taffetas, failles, and satins, veiled with beaded nets or chiffons. Gray is nearly as popular a shade for this type of frock as for daytime wear; often it is combined with black lace over white most ef fectively. Much velvet is used, com bined with satin, taffeta, or faille, or as bandings for the cloth frocks which are quite popular. The Day of the Dance Not Passed Dancing is still much in favor. Some charmingly capricious frocks have been designed this winter espec ially for the maid or matron who dances. Many of these are delight fully youthful and frivolous; one es pecially dainty creation has "a skirt made entirely of ribbon, with net bodice, veiling a band of the ribbon at the bustline. Net, and the daintily colored bordered chiffons, are much used for these gowns; also the quaint ly patterned taffetas and brocades, so reminiscent of days gone by. The nets and chiffons are usually hung over slips of satin or taffeta, or loop ed up, pannier fashion, over a silver or gold breaded satin underskirt. The Fancy Dress Costume There are times when it is pleasant to dispense with the frock especially designed for certain purposes, and to let Fancy take her own winy, and garb us as she will, in some particularly fantastic creation all her own. All Saints' Eve, or Hallowe'en, is one of these times. The maid who looks for her fate in the candle's flame, and the man who frivols in fantastic garb, are at perfect liberty to enjoy this weird evening in whatever costume pleases them most. There is no more demure, pleasing costume for the maid than this quaint Empire frock with Sts frilled pantalettes, its cres cent nnd star-decked bonnet, and its fuzzy-tailed black cats, world-wide omens of good luck nnd witches' magic Every Woman Should Know There are three entirely different Kinds of linking powder, namely: (11 Cream of tartar, derived from grapes; (2) Alum, a mineral acid; and Phosphate of Lime. (1) Baking Powders made of Cieam of Tar tar add to the food the same healthful quali ties that exist in the ripe grapes from which ('renin of Tartar is derived. ' - (2) linking Powders made of Alum add to the food some form of Alum or Aluminum, a heavy metal, wholly foreign to any natural article of fond. (3) Phosphate of Lime is made from rock or by burning hones which by chemical action are changed into a white, powdered ucid. It is used in baking powder because it is a cheap er substitute.

New York bordering its short, full skirt. The man may wear a Pierrot costume; it has always been a favorite and loses none of its charm this winter. There are many interesting plays in town; afternoon teas are among the social demands and the tea rooms of the Ritz, Plaza, Asto and Vander bilt are once more gay with the laugh ing chatter af many voices. The charming array of gowns makes these more public places wonderfully inter esting. The dark rich veleets, com bined with satins, taffetas, broad cloths, and velours are most effective and wintery-looking with the touch of fur which almost invariably ap. pears on some part of the gown. Perhaps the most generally favored style of gown or blouse is the jumper; there is the little jumper bodice made with narrow shoulder straps, cross ing suspender fashion down the back, or continuing down each side of the back in straight lines. The sleeveless basque in various styles is popular, too, with sleeves of satin, taffeta or crepe Georgette. . Many of the blue serge gowns, and theh eavier fabrics, such as duvetyn and velours de laine, are made this way, as many dislike a heavy sleeve. This is also an econom ical idea, as the sleeves may be varied; a pair of satin or taffeta may do ser vice for morning, and by substituting a guimpe of crepe Georgette, or chif fon cloth, the same frock becomes dressy enough for afternoon wear. A very chic dress of the new tobacco brown duvetyn, built on these lines was made with the jumper bodice but toning in a double-breasted line in simulation of a vest front. This frock was accompanied by a guimpe of self- tone chiifon. Another material favor ed for contrasting sleeves is brocad ed grosgrain; a blue serge for instance is made with a guimpe of blue gros grain brocaded with gold, with charm ingly harmonious effect. Among the dressier afternoon frocks the use of velvet combined in various ways with satin, faille, or taffeta, striped or plain, is most ngraible. One charming little frock was made with the lower section of the skirt in velvet, arranged in a Wall. of-Troy design; this same ef fect was carried out in the lower sec tion of the bodice, which was also of the black velvet. The upper part of the skirt was of striped gros de Lon dres, and the upper part of the bodice of crepe Georgette. On another in teresting costume a jumper basque of velvet was worn with a pleated skirt of faille, banded around the lower edge with the velvet. The very name of the petticoat has brought smiles, now, for a season or two, but there is no garment more de lightfully feminine. Its gay little ruffles enhances the slenderness of a dainty ankle, and its soft swish de lights the heart of the really femi nine person, no matter how indepen dent she may have been of it for the past season or two. It has really re turned this winter after many indi cations and predictions from smart modistes. It is the real, swishy, be ruffled thifg of years gene by, too.

Committee of Nine Is Discouraged After Mass, Meeting Is Held I Fians for the revision of Oregon I Cit y's charter, so that a manager could be employed to run the city's oiian Of uicu a nuuucii aim jjouiicaa death Monday night of this week, when a mass meeting ' held at the Commercial club S. , McDonald, the noted prohibitionist; Emery Dye and young Lloyd Riches talked the matter blind, deaf and senseless. 0. W. Eastham also hammered in a few knocks at the city-manager plan, saying that he thought it would open the door for graft; and though Livy Stipp endeavored faithfully to explain the benefits that would re sult from the adoption of the new system, the citizens and others pres ent did not take kindly to the scheme. When general discussion of the prop osition was invited by Mayor Jones, Messrs. McDonald and Dye, and young Riches, asked so many questions that the meeting devolved into a farce, and Pr. J. A. Van Brakle finally moved adjournment. Following the meeting members of the committee of. nine, who had work ed out the new charter plans, declar ed that they were both surprised and discouraged at the reception that had j been accorded the matter, ana added that their enthusiasm was de cidedly on the wane. With the temporary dropping of charter revision plans, it is expected that the mayoralty campaign will open up with renewed vigor, and that a lively scrap for places on the city's governing body will commence. phone, there being a city ordinance against appearing on the street with out clothes. According to Flarety, his partner "cleaned him out flat." This meant that during his peaceful slumbers somebody he thinks it was his part ner, because that gentleman is miss ing entered his room and took his clothes, raincoat, pipe, razor and to bacco. He has sworn to a warrant charging his former room-mate with the deed; and Constable Jack Frost and Sheriff Wilson are looking for the missing man and incidentally for Flarety's effects.

Home Acts of Legislature Make Raise in County Levy Necessary According to County Judge Ander son, there is every reason to believe that county taxpayers will have to pony up more than 3.2 mills this year when taxes are collected. Just how much the increase will be the county court has not yet determined; but ow ing to fancy legislation adopted at the last session of ' Chris Schuebel and other solons at Salem, the business of running the county will cost more than formerly. Chief among the items that will add to the county's expense account are a new registration law, which provides that all voters must register again; the highschool tuition law, which creates a fund out of which the coun ty pays tuition for pupils who live outside of standard highschool dis tricts. The increase probably will not be sufficient to bring the levy up to four mills, but it is believed that the final figure will be only a small fraction under this sum.
