DRESS AND FASHION.
STYLES THAT ARE APPROVED AT
HOME AND ABROAD.
Full Dress Occasions-Low Bodices are
Brought Up High ON the Shoulders
to Suit the Requirements of
Slender Figures.

The permission to wear high or semi
high bodices at tie queens drawing rooms
has had an influence among English wo-
men. as is shown By tbs fact that low bod
ices for ordinary evening wear are brought
little higher up on the shoulder when t se
figure needs it. This is fashion which
many American women will find both be-
coming and convenient, as even without
perfect figure they may wear, when occa-
sion requires it. a low bodice without I'M
duly exposing lack OF plumpness and fair
ness. In the cut here presented is shown
an exceedingly attractive French ball
gown, with low bodice brought well up on
the shoulders.

evidence of q growing culture that

ern square hall with its fireplace
aud artistic stairway requires but little
ingenuity to make il effective. 1t is only
those who have TO deal with the narrow
passageway that find real difficulties still,
even here prettiness IS possible. Suppose
you put in one or two of the square corners
bracket shelves, and place upon them grow
ing palms or ferns; then make the long
stretch of bare wall d picture gallery of
etchings in narrow oak frame, even extend
ing the line up the stairway. In this way
there is given something for the eye to rest
upon as one waits. a low settle, which,
like the chest of drawers" may serve q
double purpose, that of receptacle for
various belongings for driving or
walking. as well as a commodious
seat Put in its proper place behind the
door an umbrella stand, and in passing it
may be said that the ordinary drain pipe
serves this purpose admirably, and can
be made pretty by painting upon it
large SNOWY flowers. There can be
found some place for a tiny table
to hold card receiver and an
odd corner for a quaint chair. A swinging
curtain pole with well-chOsen portierre
adds 10 the effect, by cutting off views that do
not always contribute TO the aesthetic. Wait

not tedious. and, as has been said. is most
