One could not but dream pleasant dreams with one's head resting upon one of those pine bough embroidered and pine needle scented pillows. A New Fall Sweater. I saw the very newest of the fall sweaters yesterday and it was tremely smart.

In orange wool, done in a novel stitch, this practical and swagger garment had the inevitable deep sailor collar and was fastened and pocket-trimmed with ball buttons of ivory, Warmth without weight is the delightful characteristic of these wool sweaters made at the local knittery where may have what you want when you want It. Leatherette. A new Kaiser production--no, no, not warrish at all--are those leatherette gloves. They are somewhat on the order of chamoisette, but are better made the usual glove the sort. Closely woven and of smooth surface, these gloves will outwear silk and also afford a better protection to the hand.

Practical as they are, they are also quite smart in effect, For French Dressing. Those bottles of etched glass for making French dressing are now obtainable at less price than when they first came out. Convenient are they, too, for making the dressing for the summer salad. Marks are placed at proper intervals to indicate the quantity of oil, vinegar, and then shake, shake the dressing is made! Poor indeed is the table which does not boast its individual way of making salad dressing and for table dressing making the bottle is a decided short cut. That Dressmaking School.

The gracious privilege ever introduced most, a store! Truly it does not seem too much to say, as I believe will fully agree when I tell you" what you may have and do. If you buy the goods for your new frock at that big store on lower Broadway you may hie you the dressmaking department just installed this week and there you may have cut to your measure any pattern which you desire. There is a slight charge for cutting this individual pattern--a few cents is all, whereas usually pay into the dollars for such accommodation. From that time forth all is smooth sailing with your dressmaking and it costs you not a cent for the use of sewing machines, electric irons, and for the instruction of a skilled workwoman who will not only solve your sewing problems for you, who will fit your gown and assist you to complete it to the last detail. Commodious, well-lighted rooms are at the disposal of patrons and everything is in fact first class.

That this privilege is appreciated is attested by the fact that early in morning on second day after the opening of the school, eighty had enrolled for making dresses. Fine Enamels. Jewel-like in their exquisite beauty are those enameled cups shown, upon a tiny tray of like enamel, in that big jewelry house on midsomething to joy the LilBroadway, where one always, finds liputian are those cups that I guessed them for holding some nectar of the gods, but I was informed that they were for the distilled coffee made Russian -wise, a veritable essence of the brew for serving after dinner. Less than "demi" are those "tasses" and so adorable that one would delight in caressing them with the lips. Fluttering Feminine Fads.

Modifications of the kimona sleeve are seen in some of the new coats. Gray lace and gray crepe de chine combine to make a very distinguished blouse, Full net skirts are charming over pleated satin foundations for dancing frocks. New children's coats, it is said, are to be made of the favorite pile fabrics. Navy, tan and blue crepe de chine will be used for some of the most serviceable waists. Maline and Chantilly laces will be most favored in the great lace season that is coming.

It is hinted that pastel and neutral shades will come in with the next turn of fashion's wheel. Silver ribbons increase for millinery uses. A novelty fabric is satin with velvet stripes. Shot taffeta is favored for silk petticoats. The ribbed weaves are Ag much liked as ever.

Camisoles with ribbon shoulders are preferred. Green is said to be one of the coming colors. Contest. NEPHEWS FIGHT WILL. Allege Uncle, Who Slew Himself and was Once Inmate at Patton, was of Unsound Mind when He Disposed of Property Worth Big Sum.

Frank Edward Albert P. and George H. Todd, nephews of Theodore Todd, are contesting his will before a jury in Judge McCormick's court, on the ground that their uncle was not of sound mind at the time he executed it. Mr. Todd, who committed February 21, last, gave one-half of the $50,000 estate to his widow.

Mrs. Annie Todd, and placed the other half in trust, the income from which will be paid to her during her lifetime. The contestants seek to break the will so that the haif in trust may be distributed now. Among Mr. Todd's assets were fifty-five shares of stock of the First National Bank, $3000 in cash and 700 shares of the Home Builders.

Early in 1900 Mr. Todd was committed to Patton and was discharged as cured May 13, 1904. The contestants are represented by former Judge Robert M. Clarke and the widow by former State Senator Henry M. Hurd.

GETS NEW BOND. Dr. W. W. Shartell, a dentist, who was Indicted for having smoking opium in his possession, was surrendered by one of his bondsmen yesterday, and he immediately executed a new bond for $2000, with Mrs.

Sarah Shartell and G. B. Nichol as sureties. The trail of Dr. Shartell 19 set for November in the local Fedaral Court, Dance -Los RIALTO.

Foundation Weak? STORY'S WELL TOLD. LOIS WEBER PHOTOPLAY HAS MOVING APPEAL. By Grace Kingsley. "Shoes," showing at the Alhambra, is the greatest photoplay which Lois Weber has ever produced. All praise to its perfection of acting, by Mary MacLaren and the others.

All praise to the fact that every atom of its fine-drawn drama grows out of the hearts, the lives, the motives of real human beings. And more praise yet that a stark story of poverty, stripped of every cheap trick of appeal, is yet so sincere, so gripping, that it holds you as no such simple screen tale perhaps Lois Weber ever is has prone gripped to beforeich the probabilities, to erect plausibilities on platitudes, in order to catch a sentimental and sensation loving public, But strong and simple sincerity of "Shoes' proves she can look life fairly in the face when she chooses. That is possibility of a flaw in there, probabilities underlying the story of "Shoes" is chief criticism. Would a pure young girl, apparently possessed of cool judgment, raised by a loving and unselfish mother, and possessing a brood of younger sisters whom she loved, deliberately go out one night, and give herself to a man she loathed in order to get new pair of shoes, or for any other reason, except, possibly, to procure food for a starving stomach? Would any such opportunity be a "temptation" to such a girl, weighing against the jewel of her purity? Motives in this world are tangled and twisted; I leave it to the judgment of the whole army of shop girls. Violet Now Dancing.

Burt Clark, who is making a big hit at the Orpheum, this week, will spend his vacation in Los Angeles.

She may be "Miss Hamilton" now, but Orpheumites say she looks keenly like Jean Ruskin, who was a star in Hans S. Linne's dancing act. Maybe: girls ere now have changed their names, with ever less provocation. And even Jean Ruskin isn't her real name. For she is a Boston society girl, whose parents objected strenuously to her going on the stage, a year ago.

"I always loved to said Miss Hamilton, "but my people were very strict, and wouldn't hear of the stage. Last year I was very ill with prostration, and when I was recovering, I made the doctors tell parents I really couldn't well unless I was allowed to choose mny daily occupations. They consented, and I at once demanded dancing lessons." The young woman served an apprenticeship with Elsie Janis in her production of last season. Sartorial Sorrows.

This is not a sale of odd lots, but of entire lines in the latest modes. There are gray, white, stone color and black and white, as well as other combinations in high boots and in pumps, upon correct lasts. Shoe leather is constantly, advancing in price, so it is well to supply oneself at saving rates while possible to do so. Silk frocks in that July clearance sale. Nothing so convenient, so durable or so smart as the one-piece frock of silk for general wear.

Fabric gloves, of which there are several new varieties. For summer wear nothing is so comfortable as gloves of silk or chamoisette; and there is another side to it: One will don these gloves since they are not uncomfortable, whereas if one promises to wear kid one is apt to go with uncovered hands and regret at one's leisure the tan and freckles which are far from poetic. 01 Practical Suggestion. with a scroll design worked out beIt is said that in case peas are a tween crown and brim and having an trifle old they will be improved by orange cord and tassel as sole trimboiling with them a lettuce leaf and ming, are especially chic for young a pinch of sugar.

The first I saw was at the Mission Inn and was full-grown garden size. It is lovely to see the landscape reflected in their brilliant globular surfaces. Even the smallest give one a new angle from which to view the 'scape, of large or smallest scope. I am wondering still how they make things look right side up on that convex surface. Can you imagine by what magic this is accomplished? Crochetted.

Charming are those little chetted hats in various colors, and especially practical for bench wear since they do not succumb to the damp air as do so many of the fabric hats.
