Distinctive styles in brooches date from the close of the war. Then there came the garments tight al the waist and to the knees, where they bagged enormously, giving the appearance of swelled joints. The pockets were called top pockets" and could be reached only by pulling the yes; up se the chin. Later they were cut high in the waist and medium in the legs. This was return to the first principles were those miserable tights They it. and suddenly swelled to awful propor- tions at the bottom. The present styles are elegant, and a decided advance on any that have preceded. The trousers of to-day is as complete an institution as can be wished for.
