One can still buy a clinging petticoat, but even when it clings it will have width enough to bring it into line with the season's idea of skirt proprieties, and the average petticoat is rapidly abandon- ing all idea of clinging. Just how far it goes in its revolt depends somewhat upon the material of which it is' made. Tafleta, for in- stance, is audacious stuff, and the taffeta petticoat is prone to erisp an flaring aggressiveness. Without the ald of even the -marrowest crinoline band it can holdout a frock skirt quite sturdily, provided, of course, it is cut and trimmed for such work. Occasionally it is adorned with many narrow overlapping frills, pinked or bound on their edges, and especially when of delicate color is a delightfully frivolous affair. More often, however, says The Indianapo- lis News, it has a smoothly fitted top, and one rather deep shaped flounce, on which are applied some flat trim- mings, with perhaps a couple of tay frills on its bottom edge. Or it may be cut to flare with a deeply battlemented bottom 'and an underflounce of net or lace of chiffon and perhaps an applied bowknot of' narrow taffeta, shirred and corded bands -or of little taffeta ruchings on} each battlement section. Plain taffeta petticoats are made gay by ruffles of flowered taffeta. Plaid taffeta petticoats have pinked ruchings of the plaid silk for trim- mings. Petticoats of plain taffeta jn Hght color are trimmed with wide in- | set bands of cream net on which nar- {row Valenciennes lacé frills are agp plied in scalloped lines. The soft, light weight satins and crepes are used as petticoat mater ials, too, as are the chiffons and lac- es, but none of these is capable ol flaring in ultra modish fashion with- out assistance. Luckily assistance is at hand ir the shape of narrow white crineline bands to be run through hems o folds, fine supple reeds to be shirred into the skirt fullness, even amusin hoopskirts, which while not so ample as those of Civil War days, are.quit substantial. These hoopskirts are pretty things despite their absurany. Two or three pink satin covered hoops and pink satin frills, let us say, are suspend- ed by wide pink satin ribbons from a waistband also of pink satin. Or perhaps the color is blue or lilac or white, but the daintiness is the same whatever the color, If these hoops are taken up enthusiastically they will, of course, be copied in cheaper form, but even the most radical of euthusiasts bdrdly expects a general adoption of hoopskirts this season, and the extremists will probably be satisfied with the edition de luxe. Princess petticoats, which are com- binations of camisole and petticoat --the latter full and frilled--are made in the fine lingeric materials and in the various petticoat silks, crepe de chine and pussy willow taf- feta being particular favorities be- cause of their tubbing qualities. Thére are soft, frilly tub petticoats of the India and China wash silks, too, and some of these in the pale pinks are extremely likable. NOVELTY IS SEEN IN WINTER HATS. Smartly Tailored Models and Dressy Chapeaux Trimmed With ~- Feathers, With the advance of the season feather trimmings of every descrip- tion adorn the most exclusive millin- ery treations. Plainly tailored mo- dels in velvet and silk have straight little military cocktails in contrast to the more elaborte silk beaver chapeaux richly garnished with os- trich or paradise plumage. Curlad ostrich bands encircle the crowns of broad brimmed velvet hats for wear with the afternoon costume of vel- vet or broadcloth, while dainty flow- er motifs or narrow widths of fur ap- pear on the more dressy models. The tailored hat are decidedly so, being in many cases severe and almost unadorned with the exception of a single woolen flower or a band of grosgrain ribbon. One chic little model with straight narrow brim and the popular high crown was fashioned from black silk velvet. The only trimming used was ribbon----{four narrow widths of which encircled the crown and fastened in the front with small square metallic buckles. Another hat of the same tpye in the 'modish pressed beaver exploited a stiff cockade of fancy black ribbon with a round pierrot of fur holding it in place at a rakish angle of the rim. _ Some of the very pewest dress hats are soft tam-like creations of velvet with clever introductions of metal trimmings or silver laces. Also silk cords and tassels garnish a number of extremely smart models. The Modern Woman: The modern woman does not in- dulge in perfume extensively about her persom. If she uses it at all it is so delicate as to be a mere breath and of a grade that will not grow stale and hea®y after contact with the air. Oftentimes she obtains the desired effect by secreting her favor ite scant in her lingerie drawer, in her hatbox and among her furs, or by a spray directed to her which, fs, by the way, one of the first places to show heaviness due to on and lack of ventilation. FASHION NOTES The new Paris models are particu- larly smart and dainty. The short full skirts are the most popular 'of all for silk. The very latest novelty in taffeta is cut with a close fitting yoke, to which is attached a flounce, cut slightly circular to this, another is attached slightly fuller, and to this a third is added; this gives great width without added weight A narrow hem or a binding of a rather narrow bias piece of sflk finishes the lowest flounce, into which fine fea- therbone is introduced. Another justly popular method of obtaining fullness at the hem and narrowness around the waist and hips, and which also obviates any sagging is to cut the skirt circular in shape, but crosswise, so that the sel- vages come one at the top of the waist and one at the bottom of the {dkirt where it is sometimes necessary to piece an additional width to make the skirt long enough. This skirt, as one can easily see, cannot sag in the back--and as_the selvages are sewed up down thé front cannot sag there, but are quite full, falling in two or three rippling folds from the hips to the hem, are quite plain, rely- ing upon the quality of the silk, a touch of embroidery on the pockets at either side of the front to relieve the plainness. - Three materials are frequently | combined in the same costume, cloth, taffeta and chiffon, all of the same shade, The cloth is used for the skirt and the slip. bodice, the latter fastened on the shoulders. The taffeta for nar- row plaited ruffles at the foot of the skirt, and two flat draperies over the hips in panier form,.and the chiffon for chemisette and sleeves, which are finished at elbow and wrist with nar- row silk ruffles. Sleeves, There are many new ways of _mak- ing sleeves., The tendency iS to cut them shorter and straighter and to complete them by bouffant under sleeves, another old style revived. The full undersleeves are made of Health, built {thin china silk, lace, chiffon or nets matching the material in color. The finishing touch at the wrise is always a narrow band into which the full- nes of the undersleeve is gathered It i5 considered more up-to-date to sew the sleeves into the arm-holes. Sometimes the ancient style of cut- ting out the arm hole in scallops, binding them, and setting the sleeves under the scallops is revived. Putting On Flesh, A good many women find that they grow stouter during the sum- mer months and thinner through the winter. The autumn finds the aver- age girl ten pounds heavier than her weight the previous spring. This putting on of weight, over summer is no longer a mere famey, it is an acknowledged fact. Of course, there are girls, very -thin by nature, who cannot seem to add flesh in any way, not even over summer, but they are the exception. The fact remains that the average girl is inclined to grow stout during the hot weather. The reason is most apparent. No one wants to move about very much when the weather is warm The summer gives every one a sort of lassitude, and consequently the fa- vorite summer pastime of the aver- age woman is to sleep and eat--and that is all. No wonder all the girls come back from their summer vaca- tions looking so much healthier and stouter! This state of affairs is all very well for the girls who has lost so much weight that she is anxiods to gain. But for the one who is rather inclined toward embonpoint thé ad- dition to her weight is nothing short of fatal. But forewarned is fore- armed, and she who does not want to gain this summer should learn how to avoid it. Too little exercise food are fatal to a figure. There- fore, the girls who want to ~ stay slender this summer will do well either to exercise or to avoid fatten: ing foods. If they exercise enough they can eat what they 'please----one counter-balances the other-- but if they are sitting still through most of the day they should eliminate from their diets all candies, all sweets, butter, milk, potatoes, all'the foods which tend to add weight. and too much Your taste for good tea will prove to you Red Rose Tea "is good tea" FURS Fox, Sealskin, Beaver, Ermine, etc. etc., can be cleaned very successfully, and in this connection it may be remarked that dry cleaning is also a splendid pro- tection against moths.
