Those who re- Mon from Paris say that the fashion is not as popular there today as one thought it would be from the August exhibitions of clothes. ¢ ! sweeping statement about any- thing is dangerous, but, on the sur- face of things, it looks as though the American women had gazed upon the pansiers, talked about them, then de- cided in favor of straight lines, | Even the chemise frock is worn.
