chicago Girls Eager to Adopt q
Dress Innovation.
Chicago girls will be among the first
to adopt socks next winter. Fashion
has decreed that the abbreviated stock
Ing shall be the thing for the stylish
woman, and of course that Is enough
to make the sales Of the new hosiery
reach immense proportions in Chicago.
In all the Chicago department stores
the decorations In honor of the Grand
Army encampment included artistic
displays of the new stockings. But
the stockings are not on sale. They
have not even arrived from Paris,
where they were first brought out n
few days ago. Only patterns are
shown. Orders for the new stockings
will be taken, however, and deliveries
will be made as soon as the goods ar
rive.
Men have borrowed the woman's
shirt waist for summer wear; there
fore, why should women not retaliate
by borrowing mans socks for winter
use? That Is the question asked of
captious critics and by the big firms
that are now sending for large consign-
ments Of silk, Isle thread and cotton
goods.
The feminine sock Is an improve.
ment upon the masculine sock, says
the st. Louis Republic. In the first
place, 1t Is longer. The standard length
il 10 inches. 1t Is ribbed Mt the top
and, other things being equal, a per.
feet fit Is assured, without support. II
Is not more than 25 years since the
opera length was adopted. 1t was this
long stocking that caused the tempo
rary displacement Of garter buckles
and the dainty silk circlet in fashion 9
generation ago.
1t Is said that the new sock will
cause the garter to disappear altogeth
er, and physicians hail the innovation
as boon to the girls not only Of Chi
cago, but throughout the land.

the poet, The accompanying illustra-
tion shows the beautiful new memorial
structure which has just been put up
in the Montmartre cemetery In Paris.
The monument is placed over the spot
where the ashes Of the sweetly cynical
poet Of Dusseldorf now lie. This
strange poet was one Of the most gifted
Of the race Of Mendelssohn and Roths-
child, Rachel and Rubinstein, Chopin
and Disraell. He was born at the little
old town Of Dusseldorf on the Rhine on
Dec. 1S 1893, and It was TO celebrate
the centenary OF his birth that the
Montmartre monument was erected.
owing TO the fact that Heine dwelt for
a quarter OF century in Paris and did
most Of his best work in that city, 1t is
not altogether Inappropriate or surprls-
ing that the gay capital should remem-
Der him thus affectionately. The mon
ument TO him is the creation Of Louis
Hasselrlis. who is one of the most tai
ented sculptors In Rome at the present
time.
