McCa ix
Dress of Checked Taffeta.
hnt you will make 110 mistake in
having one of the simple silk dresses
that are so nuu'h in vogue. They are
wonderful for filling in the gap be
tween the seasons? and not only that,
they are going to he very good for fall.
They will he quite comfortable with a
top eoat. if the weal her demands it, or
with a fur cape or scarf. The warm
weather has not at all dampened the
enthusiasm for fur capes and scarfs.
It is such a common sight to see them
worn on days when the mercury rises
to great heights that one almost feels
that one has been laboring under a de
lusion all along to 1 relieve that furs
could be anything but cool !
Hy far the most popular silks for
dresses just now are the taffetas. They
are esj>ecially smart in self tones and
in the many striped. checked and
blocked effects seen. Navy blue and
the rich, dark tones predominate. In
some very striking designs both checks
and stri|K*s are combined. Following
closely in the lead of taffeta are mes
sallnc. faille, figured and dotted fou
lard. cre|>e do chine, silk voile, chiffon
crei>e and (ieorgette crepe.
The Illustration shown here is typi
cal of the simplicity of the present
styles. '*Th? dress of cheeked taffeta
has a gored skirt with panel front and
back, and of course, it would not be
complete without the large |>atch pock
ets on either side of the front, for
pockets are as ]>opular as ever in spite
of their having been In fashion so long.
In the waist, the panel gradually ta
I>ers' up towarcl the neck, where it is
met by a collar of (ieorgette crepe,
which ripples at the back though the
front is (piite flat Chiffon, net or or
gandy is often substituted for (ieor
gette creiH' in fashioning collars for
this type of dress. The only trimming
in this model is seen in the buttons on
either side of the panel. The color
harmonizes with the dress.

And They Say Hankers Are Heartless.
(Hi the authority of The Western!
Financier the following story is told:'
In Salt Lake City u man named Mat
thew l^ougherty went to (Jeorge E.
l'exton, a hanker, and borrowed $100.
He' gave as security 5, (KM) shares of'
mining stock of dubious value. He
failed to pay his note at maturity and
Mr. I 'ex ton bought in the stock him-'
self. Later Dougherty died and his
family were left with little.
It happened, as it does on rare <h
easiotis. that the stock proved to he
gotnl. It came to he worth $.'? a share.
The widow, in going through her hus
band's papers, found a memorandum
of the .$100 loan. She wrote to E. < >.
Howard, cashier of the bank of Walker
Hros.. ami he advised Mr. l'exton that
the family was in straightened cir
cumstances. On investigation Mr. l'ex
ton satistied himself of this fact. There
upon he turned the shares over to Mr.
Howard with the remark. 'I'ay to me
$100 and interest and then give the
stock to the family."

WE -DON'T WORK AT ALL.
In Fact, We Have No Time to, as Thi?
Argument Provaa.
With tbr present agitation for an
ever Increasingly fihort working day
comes the statistician who proves that
by rights the American worklngman
should work only one day. Follow the_
argument closely:
There are by common consent 3Gf> j
days in the year. Doctors agree that a j
man shpuld devote one-third of his
time to Sleep and one-third to recrea- .
tlon. Counting one-third of a year as ;
approximately 122 days, we have 121 ?
days left after taking out this allow
a nee. ;
Subtract from this the flfty-two Sun i
days which are the workingman's i
right, and we have sixty-nine dnys left ;
Saturday half holidays consume twen
ty-slx of these, leaving forty-three.
One hour off for lunch on Ave days In
the week make 200 hours, or approxi
mately twenty-two days, whlc^i leaves!
our total working time twenty -one ,
days. Bat a man is entitled to a two
weeks' vacation in the summer and the
six legal holidays afforded by the state,
making a total vacation time of twenty
days. Taking this from cmr waking j
time of twenty-one day*, we have a re
mafnrtur at one working day. ? New
