fAGE EIGHT Two sweaters—as far separated \from one another in style as the North 1s from the South—are presented for ithe consideration of the sportswoman /in the picture above. Each is represent- ative of a type; the first, at the right of the two, belng an example of styles used where the sweater is called up- -on to give actual warmth and free- dom of movement. It is a close-knit, snug-fitting garment of wool, machine ;made, with cap to match, and is one ‘of several varietles that the outdoor girl and the sportswoman find indis- pensable. This model is in one color, bhas patch pockets and a wide turn- over collar—with knitted band to hold it close up abeut the neck.This is its novel feature and speaks for itself, for it assures comfort in the face of icy winds. The cap is in two colors. Sweater coats of brushed wool are much like this model except that they are loose and belted. Usually collar, cuffs and pockets are bordered with a band in contrasting ‘color. Vivid and high colors are well represented, but do not predominate in the new sweat- ers; turquoise, rose and purple with orange appear among them. The ‘brushed wool sweater coats are very warm looking, A rival of the sweater has arrived in the very wide scarfs, usually in two- icolor. combinations, having pockets in the fringed ends and belts to match. There is as great a varlety in these ,as {n sweaters, suited to as many pur- ijposes Bnd climes as the competitors ‘which they are destined to displace, lor at least tn share favors with. The pretty garment and cap at the left, by contrast with its sturdy com- panion, is only acting a part. It is & sleeveless affair of knitted silk, having a cross-bar in a contrasting color, with small tassels suspended on silk cords |’ of the same color, about the bottom. It is made in the slipon style, but opens a little way down. the front where a single button and two, cords, ending in tasséls, provide fastening and finish, Not much is required of it ip the way of warmth and it can, therefore, afford to be sleeveless. The cloth tam, worn with it, is run with stitches like the cross-bar in the sweater in color and a narrow girdle ot the silk is knotted loosely about the waist. This is an interpretation of the sweater for tourists to lands of the sun. Its mission is less practical than that of its companion which must face the snow, but they both belong in the category of sports clothes. Among the very handsome garments of the same character for Southern tourists’ wear are the sweaters with fitted body and rippled skirts, crochet- ed of heavy silk yarn. They have el- bow sleeves ending in a wide ripple, and, without pretense to any useful- ness, other than that of looking loyely, they are the most dignified of all the offerings for sports wear. The crochet work is very open, amounting to a heavy square mesh, for which the blouse worn provides a background. Chicago, Dec. 20.—Potato receipts today, 23 cars. Market firm.

The Baptist Missionary ‘soclety was entertained at the G. R. Martin resi- dence, 1315 Bixby avenue, yesterday afternoon. The occasion was the cli- max of a six months contest in the so- ciety, based on good attendance and well learned missionary lesSons. The losing side gave a luncheon fand Christmas tree for the benefit of the winners. The luncheon table was prettily decorated in holiday garb, the centre piece being a small decor- ated Christmas tree. There were about twenty ladies in attendance, and all had a very pleasapt after- noon. i Hopa Not All Abandoned. Miss, Threeyears was watching the grizzly bear in his new cage to the northwest of the lion house. A re- cently constructed chain of bear and other animal cages there has added fmmensely to the attraction of the place. Somebody threw the old grlzzly a ,peanut, and then another, but both nuts hit the bars and fell just outside the cage. The bear reached his paw through and tried to scoop the tempt- ing nuts in, but his long, yellow claws seemed to be in his way. He had to use his claws as a sort of rake, and the spaces between the prongs of his. rake proved too wide, so the peanuts slipped through. Miss Threeyears was most sympa- thetic. The poor bear couldn't get his peanuts. But there was yet hope. The keeper would be around shortly with the bear’s dinner, and then— “Maybe he can get it wif a fork or a 'poon,” she said—Washington Star. Ungallant Oldtimers.’ An old papyrus text, recently um- earthed In Egypt, shows a strong bias against women. After citing a long series of unfortunate happenings in history, it bluntly charges all of.| them directly to the conduct and Influence of woman, Then it goes on to say that if she have iwealth for her ally in wickedness, the evil is double. The last line of the fragment is not entire- ly legible, but appears to be of the same general tenor. Didn't Work Out Right A languid swell was visiting & charming young society lady, and as they sat on either side of the fire his heart was full of the burning desire to say something not only compli- mentary, but brilliantly flattering. So, after revolving the matte® In his mind, he said: “Ah, Miss Lfllle) why are those fire-tongs so like me?" He meant her to guess, of ask Rim to tell her, “because they were prostrate at her feet,” or something of that kind. Miss Lillie, looking solemnly demure, said she didn't know, unless it was be- cause they had two thin lezs and a brass head. He was groping blindly for the front door before she.had recovered from the shock of her own volley. Kept Ignominy in Memory. On the 5th of November,'in 1500, Christopher Columbus, in spite of the incalculable services he had ren- dered to Spain, was taken Into Cadiz in fetters.. King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella were moved at the sight and commanded, that he be released. Co- lumbus, however, was unable to for- give the insult, and until the ‘time of his death the ignominious fetters were hung in full sight on.his walls as a reminder of the: lngratltude of his sov- ereigns. Pérsia Sparsely Peopled. It is easy: to overrate the land. of Darfus and -Cyrus, Amar, and Hafiz, for Persia-has not nearly as many in- habitants as.Mexico. Estimates differ widely and there has néver been a real census, but it Is possible that in a ter- ritory equal to Krance, Germany, the British .isles and Italy all taken to- gether, the population does not ex- ceed that of Ifttle Belgium. In area Persla is more than 15 times as big as Ohlo, but ‘it contains fewer than twice ‘as wany people. The Mocklng Bird. No two mocking bird families cam | occupy the same “tree or bush-—aund there are some lively scraps befors their territorial beundaries -are estab- lished; but once settled, their peace treaty is faithfully kept. . The mock- ing bird never forgets that he is & star in the musical world. He will help pick out the building place and lay the foundation of the nest; then he suddenly seems, to make up his mind that he is a poor architect, but a fine musician, and abandons house- building for the business of singing for his own little world. Walk That Tells Character. A peculiar walk is that of the long stride with the decided swing of the shoplders. This walk is generally to be seen in authors, actors and artists, and is characteristic of the art world, the man who has ideas of his own, and is quite untrammeled by conven- tion. It denotes indepéndence and, if accompanied by an emphatic planting down of the left foot, a stamp in fact, resolution ard determination. —— Famous American. In 1869, on the 6th of November, Ad- miral Stewart, an American, who won fame In the battles against French privateers and against the British' in lhe war of 1812, died. Admiral Stew- nrt was the grandfather of Charles Parneil AT THEATRE CHRISTMAS SPECIAL—REX.
