The new tub frocks, whllo adhering, as a general rule, to the plaited Bklrt mode, and the simpler styles of waist or bodice, are none the less dainty for the fact, and are made attractive and becom ing by trimmings of fine lace or em broidery, and by the prevailing mode of the ruche finish at the neck a dressy little detail that quickly found favor with H types of femininity, for the reason that its. softening effect renders it uni versally becoming. A few of the many attractive designs for tub frocks are shown in the accom panying pictures, the selection covering the scope from the practical, durable shopping or market dress of gingham to the dainty, delicate and lace-trimmed party gown of elaborate pattern. A tub frock of the latter variety 1b shown in picture No. 1. While "sweet simplicity," of the roost charming and alluring type, is the keynote to this dainty party or afternoon dress, the word "simplicity" has little application to its quantity of expensive detail. Hundreds of yards of the finest lace and insertion have been employed to gain that exqui site daintiness and transparency which produces the effect of charming "sim plicity." The hip plaits of the prevailing mode are augmented in the skirt of this frock by a deep ruffle with three horizontal rows and a double flouncing of the finest Valenciennes; three horizontal rows of the lace are placed Just above the ruffle, and fiounclngs in the semi-circular design at the hip line add further to the elabor ateness and attractiveness of this pretty Bkirt. The same idea is carried out in the waist, which is made to open down the back, and with the "Dutch" neck, finished with soft frills of the lace. The short sleeves, finished with narrow, lace edged cuff, are prettily trimmed with tiny, tucks in horizontal rows, as is also the body of the waist, and the shoulder line is broadened and the dressiness of the gown added to by epaulets of the tucked material, with lace and Insertion transparencies, and a full frill edging. No. 2 shows a simple little market ing frock of black and white percale, with pipings of red and cloth-covered buttons. 'A. small "dickey" of dainty tucked muslin, with a bow tie and lace-frilled collar, add a dressy and attractive touch to this practical util ity frock, which tubs easily and sim ply. A cool and comfortable negligee suit is shown in picture No. 4. The dress is made of a soft wash fabric in tan color, with dots of brown, and brown is used In the binding of the low, turned-down collar and around the bottom of the skirt. The sleeves are short and finished with soft turned-back cuffs, bound In brown. A checked or polkadot tie of brown and tan completes the costume. Another variety of the tub frock Is shown in No. 3. which is in the "jumper" pattern, in pale blue wool batiste, a fabric that tubs easily, re quires no troublesome process of starching and holds .its shape well. Worn with a dainty white waist, this "Jumper" costume is most attractive, and is very practical, in addition- to the charm of daintiness. No. S shows a simple pattern for house or out-of-doors wear, and one that is popular with the woman who does her own sewing and is pressed for time. The skirt is simply made, following the plaited mode, with diag onal bands around the bottom, which are very effective as a trimming, par ticularly If the fabric Is striped or checked. A frill of soft lace at the neck and cuffs, with a band of pretty embroidery down the front and around the collar, finishes this costume. The tub skirt, for wear with separ ate waists, comes in a .wide variety of materials this season duck, percale batiste and novelty goods. In white and all the popular colors are ' being offered In the shops. The plaited de sign, or the gored pattern, with horl Eontal bands or folds. Is adhered to In these garments also.

A IX. eyes behold! Behold the sun, in russet mantle clad, climb over the eastern hills and see what happens. And Portland wants to do this behold ing early today, for promptly at 6:12 o'clock this morning the great orb of day is scheduled, according to the alma nac, astronomers and near-astronomers, to go into its annular eclipse and re main in that condition until 7:55 A. M. An annular eclipse, however, for the elucidation of those who may imagine it is a yearly stunt of the source of light, occurs when the moon, at the mid dle of the eclipse, conceals the central part of the sun's disk, leaving a com plete ring of light around the border. This eclipse, which Is to appear today. Is one of three for the year 1908. Al! three of these eclipses this year are of the sun. The one today will be visible In the United States, Canada. Mexico. Central America and the northern por tion of South America. The path of this annular eclipso passes over or very near the City of Mexico. Tampa, Fla., and the Bermuda Islands. It then crosses the Atlantic Ocean and terminates in latitude 10 deprees north and longitude 10 degrees west, in West ern Africa. The duration of the entire eclipse is 6 hours 1.3 minutes, and of the annular eclipse 3 hours and 50 minutes, during which latter period it traverses 12S de grees 48.8 minutes of longitude The official date of the beginning and ending of the eclipse In Portlund is 6:13 to 7:5?
