WOMEN'S FIGURES
TO CHANGE.

of Fashion.

: artificial for all which in this instance
is the corset.
The habit back skirt upon it's first
appearance was cordially received. All
the world of fashion looked on the good
work, striving to duplicate it's perfect
lines. Few succeeded. 1t was utterly
impossible to reproduce the appearance
of round full back without eXaggerat-
ing the size of the hips. One by one
the new figure" increased in numbers.
Eventually the secret was out-milady S
new corset nodded her into the shape
required. The corset of yesterday was
cut sufficiently low to free the bust,
commonly spoken to leave it in natur-
al position" This characteristic re-
mains unchanged. From the shoulder
to the point of the bust is regarded as
the line of beauty, and to increase its
length is the prevailing aim. The size
of the waist has been steadily enlarg
ing since women took to outdoor exer-
else, hence the corset is not entirely
responsible for this truth, but the au-
tumn models undoubtedly accentuate
the big waist as none has ever done be-
fore
The second feature of the new figure
is the absolutely straight line without
the faintest suspicion of curve. 1t
extends from the point of the bust
where the stays begin, to the abdomen,
where they end. This gives a square or
box-like appearance not nearly so
graceful and easy as the short hip
things which permitted you to sway,
bend and unbend at will.
The latest corset for the new figure
tribe is the same length all around.
This is contrary to rule, as they are
usually long in front, gradually de-
creasing toward the back, which is in
variably quite short. 1t is heavily bon
ed, comes down we'll over the hips, be-
ing three inches longer than any pre-
vious model offered. The cores are less
ample and have the power to crowd the
flesh down and back 1t is this at
tribute which gives the hustle like pro-
portion and fills out the tiny hollow
which has been so long the bane of wo-
men and the despair of dressmakers.
An unsuccessful effort was made in the
spring by "avant couriers" of fashion
to introduce the style of corset now in
vogue. Their persistence is to be re-
warded, for within the next 40 days
the modified hustle period will be in
full swing and the new figure on pa
rade.
Coutil, batiste patterned in dresden
flowers, and satin continue to be the
staple material for corset making. Pet
tieoats to match art no longer fad and
are seldom seen unless to fill special
orders. Bridal corsets are of white
brocade, satin or batiste. laced and
gartered in true lovers blue. There is
a sudden array Of pretty combinations

THE SOCIAL ASPECT

The international yacht races are be-

portance to the women of America, al
though only a few of the very rich own

take place in American waters, there
are few families anywhere within a
radius of 100 miles who make a pre-
tension to any social Importance whose
women folks do not sling a pair of
field-glasses across their shoulders, don
yachting cap and set out for the scene
of the contest, where they are the
guests either of yacht owning friends
or where they pay for places on one
of the steam craft that carry passen-
gers to watch the races. These fair
ladies, amateur sportsWomen though
