CHANGE IN SKIRTS.
rHE PLAIN FLARING AFFAIR NEAR
ING ITS END.
0vERsKIRTS TO BE WORN.
Panels, Are Plated Around the

NEW YORK, Nov. 6.-Whle the present
fashions are very easily adapted to Use
since the points OF difference between sum-
mer and winter styles are in the smaller
sleeves, narrower skirts. and the added
bolero Jacket, a revolution in skirts is
promised which will stir up a lively inter-
est in the affairs OF Dame Fashion.
The Partisan models furnish a variety in
skirts that Is at least commendable as
IN exhibition of the dress designers In
genuity, but whether or not they will oust
the plain faring skirt from popular favor

Skirts are trimmed around the bottom,
paneled up the side. gathered or plated in
around the hips, draped with the effect CT
an overskirt. and made with tabier fronts
and medium long trains for evening wear;

verse, with the two materials used in the
bodice to complete the double effect; but as
yet the plain sored skirt fitting well at
the top, with the fullness plated In narrow
ly at the back. has the lead. Four and a
half or five yards around the bottom is the
required width and it 10 by far the most
graceful skirt We have had in years.
Some Of the latest tailor made skirts are
plated nearly all the way round beginning
with the wide box plat in front, and are
of short walking length. which is the per-
sect;on of comfort. Gored cloth skirts are
krimmed on each seam with braid put on
In scroll pattern, and around the bottom
with festoons and military knots of braid

widths are dsed IN great quantities for
dress trimmings this season, and they trim
the skirts and decorate the bolero jackets
and vests either sewn ON plain or plated
Into frill. They form the wide belts 20
much worn, and are made into bows and
rosettes without number.
Fur Is very extensively used as a dress
trimming. and IL Is quite as fash ionable on
evening gowns and tea gowns as 1t is on
cloth costumes for the street. Narrow bands
Of sable with finish OF beaded trimming
on one side are set in rows across the front
breadths Of velvet and cloth gowns and
around the bottom OF the skirt. and trim
the bodices being SET on up and down with
cream lace insertion between to form the
blouse or vest front OF cloth bodice.
Bands Of ernine and sable trim some of
the brocadec silk evening gowns, with two
rows set wide apart around the skirt, one
being on the bottom. and the combination
Of cream lece and sable is always effective
wherever it is used. Little bolero fronts
of fur are worn on both house and street
gowns and wide belts OF fur are one of the
cxtreme fancies occasionally seen. but this
is not at all pretty or becoming to the figure.
The prettiest novelties in fur are shown
among the neck ruchings and small collar
cites made up in a variety OF shapes com
bined with lace and velvet in such a way
that odds and ends OF fur can be utilized
and made wondrously becoming.
Another use for small bits OF fur is on
the revers OF cloth gowns. Sable is always
good style and chinchilla is very pretty on
black, green, or blue. Fur or thin gauzy
is one of the homogeneous com
oinations this season. but 1t is very effective
all the same. and pretty example OF its
use Is on a rose colored chiffon gown made
over rose silk. Small boero fronts of
arinine decorate the bodice and fri!l of
cream lace trims 1t around the edge.

told you about my troublesome musical
neighbor the other day and I am sure you
sympathized with me. 1t seems that other
people have had trials, too. Here is good
story told of Rubinstein. which is amusing
enough to bear repetition: One summer. in
obedience to his medical adviser at Marien-
bad, where he was undergoing the "cure."
he abstained from writing and from play
ing on the piano. Consequently he had no
piano with him.
At the end Of the course of treatment
Rubinstein was requested to give a per-
formance for the benefit Of the hospital
and with his usual kindness, when an ap-
peal was made to him in the name Of
charity. he at once expressed his readi-
ness, only asking that a piano might be
sent TO his room that he might practice a
little first.
On the arrival Of the piano the great
musician set to work at once, but hardly
had he played a quarter Of an hour when
an Austrian countess sent him the follow
ing note:
"Sir-People come to Marienbad for rest
and quiet not for the purpose of hearing
hammering and strumming on the piano,
If you are determined to make such noise
try at any rate, not to play so many wrong
notes"
To this came the following brief reply
from the great musician:
"Madam-I am sorry my wrong notes
should have tormcnted you.

exceedingly strong and are very pretty in
