L Great Industry May Be Born as Result of Experiments elegance, daintiness, quaint-hes- s these are the things that make themselves evident in those spring frocks that are made of printed cottons or silks. Women have turned again to clothes that are truthfully described as pretty. Not rich or showy, but just full of pretty touches, in color and material and in style and accessories. All the way from simple porch dresses to frocks for all sorts of afternoon wear, there are pretty things in clothes made from new fabOld-tim- e rics. In cotton, there are English prints, percale, printed voile, cotton foulard and lawns to be reckoned with for making the simple dresses that are so naive and dainty. They provide many lovely colors and are combined with fine organdie in frocks that are charming. Some of these fabrics are bor, , dered, as in times gone by, and these borders, make ' accessories, as the pockets, girdle and collar, that set off the pattern in the material and emphasize its color and1 character. For afternoon wear there are , the printed foulards in a very light, soft weave, that are made up with plain georgette crepe, or with organdie in accessories. Organdie collars and collars and cuffs or neck frills are lovely on them. Very fine tucks and finer narrow Val lace edging reveal their perennial beauty and popularity in these accessories. Velvet and other ribbon girdles finish the engaging story of these frocks. A modest cotton foulard, shown In the picture, appeared among the earliest models made of printed fabrics. It is less summery than, many of the later arrivals that have short sleeves supplemented by organdie flounces, or wide flowing sleeves. But it is a practical little dress, so silky looking that one must look tw ice to discover that it is made of cotton. It has an organdie frill at the neck and a girdle of velvet ribbon. In the French blue and light tan color combination pictured with blue girdle It deserves to be classed among pretty dresses. Endless Variety in Spring Blouses Being Made.

The war has resulted in the finding of Eddie Adams, who was kidnaped from liis home here on , April 16, 1910, it is believed, ( The parents of young Adams, who was only nine years old when he disappeared, have received word that strengthens the hope the boy has been found. ' The word, it is said, came from Italy through a Red Cross (mirse,' who discovered the identity of the lost boy among the native soldiers ins a base hospital in that country. AVhile dressing the w ounds of a young soldier she discovered that he wasn't tfn Italian, though he fought in the Italian army. Further investigation revealed that lie was an American and that he had left home when a small boy. lie remembered liis own name and die town in Pennsylvania where he had lived, both of which corresponded with that of Ed Adams, of Kane. After the boys disappearance it was learned that he was taken away by an Italian.
