THE WINTER FASHIONS.
A. AND M. COLLEGE
RECORD.
Farming, Country Life and Rural
Education are the lending ideas of
the "A. and M. College Record" for
Decernbor. The full table of con
tents is aa follows :
1. Does Farming Pay in Ntorth
Carolina ?
2. llovv to Build up a Worn-out
Farm.
3. How to Build up Worn-out
Clay Lands in Middle North Caro
lina. 4. Extensive Farming in Eastern
North Carolina.
5. Truck Fanning in Eastern
North Carolina.
G. The present and Future of
Strawberry growing in North Caro
lina. 7. The State Farmers Conven
tion.
8. The Enrichment of Country
Life.
9. Rural Education.
The "Record" maintains tjiat far
ming pays in North Carolina and
mac it oilers to the right sort of
young men as good opportunities
for wealth as any other business or
profession and far better opportu
nities for health and happiness.
Drooping shoulders, the full round
skirt, voluminous sleeves and the
old-fashioned pelerine are some of
the picturesque modes of the mo
tnent, and the shops abound in ex
quisite materials that have been
manufactured especially for develop,
ing them. For dressy gowns, the
materials preferred are soft and ad
apted to the full, straight skirts.
The new chiffon-velours is the ma
terial above all others for these ar
tiitic creation:. There is an exten
sive variety of novelties in imported
fabrics, among them zibelines and.!
camePs-hair weaves, showing mixt-!
ares of two or three contrasting col- j
ors, wiih a heavy mohair natto over
plaid as the distinguishing feature
of some of the samples. These goods
are fashioned into the moat modi-h
coat-and-ekirt suits for street wear.
The reign of the shirt waist is su
preme, and there are all kinds of
these attractive and practical gar
ments, but the smartest girls wear
very simple waists, with no trimming
save the conventional embroidery.
Embroideries of all kinds continue
in vogue, aud gowns, bodices, wrapi
and, indeed, everything else bear
this stamp of good style. The old
fashioned eyelet embroidery forms a
smart trimming for the simple little
cloth blouse in some delicate tint
worn over a silk slip of contrasting
color or white.
This is undeniably a button reason,
and buttons big, small and medium
sized are extensively ust-d as trim
ming as well as for their original
purpose of fastening garments.
There seem tb be no reaction as
yet from pendent trimmings, and
there are br;.ids, motifs and galons
! innumerable. Fringes of all forts
i are shown, though those of jet and
paillettes are perhaps better accepted
j than uny other, and they arc charm
ingly used on black and white frocks
of sheer fabrics. From The Delin
eator for January.

ticket. These tickets have been numbered from bo i
to 500, inclusive three figures on each.
One blank ticket was sent to Hon. John H. Small,
at Washington, D. C, who has placed thereon some one
number of 500 or less, sealed it in three envelopes and
sent it to Mr. Clarence Latham, Cashier of the Bank of
Plymouth, who has locked it up (with the seals unbro
ken) so that no one except Mr. Small, who will not di
vulge it, can know what the number is.
When the 500 tickets have been disposed of Mr.
Latham, in the presence of two other responsible men,
will break the seals and acquaint us of the number.
We will then publish the same and the one holding its
duplicate will receive this beautiful and useful piece of
furniture, absolutely FREE !
This no cheap, bargain-house machine, but is
made by a reliable firm who have been making them for
thirty years; is well made and has a full set of attach
ments, and is listed at $60.00.
Get up' a club of five, and in addition to g-ivins a
ticket to each of them and sending you the paper, we
will give you two ticket; for your trouble.
Some one will surely get this handsome machine.
Why should it not be you?
