JEWELS TO MATCH THE EYES

would acknowledge that resemblance to

One of these few Instances, however. is
that of NJ. Sterling, the son of poor Jewish
parents i'll Warsaw, who married the only
daughter of Princess Mathilde Bonaparte.
He was drawing master aud made the ac-

sisters who married Christian mobiles.

of nobility, in fact, IL is among what may
be called the lesser nobles that one most
frequently finds Instances OF Jewish mar
riages. But OF those of exalted rank who
have selected Jewish wives perhaps the
best known are the late Prince Alphonso
de PolignaC. who married q Jcwess named
Jeanne Mires, and Prince Radziweil. who
married Louise Blanc.

a Jewish musician IN Vienna, where the

also this aim to produce small waist
has been that of all other dress that has
gone before, when the end has been
rea ched by other means.
When fashion is Tor a skirt full at the
top, then the bodice is depended upon to
give the small waist. Then the bodice is
tight and smooth and sharply pointed,
and cuts far down into the skirt, so as
to make the waist look some half as long
again as it is by nature Dress was
thus cut in Marie Antoinette's time, and
has been cut so in our own not very long
ago. But when the bodice is round, then
the skirt, with the outlines il has to-day,
takes the responsibility for the waist:
and when the bodice is not only Found
but full blouse, there is an enhanced
charge put upon the skirt. which makes
il flare still More at tie edges. And this
alienation between bodice and skirt has
been going on ever since Eleanor of Cas-

Over these too, the dressmakers are san
guine A new style is SO ardently desired.
For myself 1 believe less in them as an
established revival than in the oyersktrtA,
and for the practical reason among others
that it Is SO extremely difficult to cut
bodice and skirt together SO as to give
small waist effect and q look of elegance
that 1t can be accomplished only by dress
makers of the greatest skill. Such dress
makers are not within the reach of a
great many women The princess form,
therefore, can hardly become popular.
Moreover the class of rich " omen do not
lead the mode. And for the rest, as long
as small waist is the ideal, the bodice
and skirt are naturally two distinct gar
Rments, and not only is no advantage
gained, but 1t is q lapse from taste to run
them into one
The princess gowns that have been made
have a bulge in the seams below the waist
at the back, a sort of perfunctory hustle.
This element appeared last spring in con-
nection with Louis XVI models. 1t may
have importance and 1t may not.
CoNCEALING FALLEN MUSCLES.

be vital enough to go on for some time yet

but the petite bourgeoise out on holf-

neck swathings. Meantime throats are
getting feeble and scrawny.
The sleeve does not fall, but grows
apace. Though the dressmakers continue
to SAY that their most elegant clients do
mand and wear only sleeves of moderate
size, yet all things are measured by COM
par1son, and these moderate sleeves require
some meters of cloth. Fortunately few
women attempt the wear of q jacket.
