Paris is no longer the home of the
daintiest, most luxurious and the most
perfectly developed worshiper of fash
ion, says New York Press woman.
She has come TO New York and taken
up her abode in our midst, whence her

parts Of the land.
1t is for her. rather than for all the
doctors of Gotham. TO say whether we

may Judge for yourself whose fashion
YOU will follow, or whether you will
inaugurate your own particular fad. At
any rate, don't fail to note the nice dis
limitations here.

Wool,
Mrs. Leslie believes in feminine indie
pendence and individual preferences.
LET me show you an idea OF my own
carried into execution. said she. tossing
aside the marYelS OF her new Partisan
outfit and drawing forth a practical
looking combination garment. his IS
what wear in cold weather. 1t is
woven in part silk and part finest wool
to the waist. and after that it Is all silk.

cause | dress quite decollete in the
evening.
Vow, here's my favorite silk skirt
lined TO the knee with flannel, and
quilted from the knee down. Anything
warm about the waist is nonsense. Do
approve of the Jenness-Miller gar
meuts? Oh, they are horrible stiff; silk
is not nice, either.
"Wash silk garments are by no means
the daintieSt, most comfortable or most
healtbful a woman can wear. You will
find that the most correct woman will
wear lawns and cambricS for everything
but skirts. | wear them all the year
around, and when have to put on my
idea in silk and wool. | don't like It.

fully dressed in winter before you can
be comfortable and pretty"

DR.. Emily has given the subject of
underwear her attention from stand
point quite distant from those occupied
She has gone intOit scientifically rather
than arlistically, and her conversation
with me was tiannelly instead of tilmSy.
Ny first question was about beautiful
underwear. u think it should be of
flannel in winter" she said, without
hesitation, land il must be both light
and warm, and of excellent quality of
wool. 1t should carefully cover the body
with all even warmth from neck to an
kleS. But What shall d woman do wien
her gown must lie decOllete !" '.Well,
IFS imprudent at best, but if She will be
foolish enough TO change her underwear
she must take extra precaution against
cold" What garment now on the
market do you consider the best % "Dr.
Jaeger'S sanitary garment. it is light,
warm and complete. There is another
good idea in the union garment worn
over black silk tights. That is what
wear, without any skirt at all, you I'M
derstand. You can't guess how com
Portable it is" "ComtOrtable, maybe,
but certainly neither pretty nor becom-
ny. judge ?"
Il can't See what particular differ
ence that makes. | think 1t more I'M
pOrtant to have well-diStrbuted
warmth over your body than to have it
all around YOUR waist and hips. with

There certainly oughtto be a revolution
IN dress and winter underwear. How
many women dress as warm as | do?
And yet wear only two garments and
neither OF these is skirt
Such radical common sense quite took
my breath away. ApropnS, have you
noticed that a woman invariably at
tributes any such failure to some cause
