The Louis Ky sleeves ara not popular

the eye. as the saying goes too quickly'.
AID consequently become an aggressive
item. Furthermore. they tend to cut up
the entire figure in the strangest and
most uuacrouutahle way None but the
tall and slim are IN any sort justified in
considering them.

In spite OF the rumors of the early
part of the season. hlouses of every kind
are more popular than ever. During the
earlier part OF the day they are of the
simplest character, but for afternoon or
evening wear they are just the contrar--,
as the materials employed in their con-
struction are very expensive, and If or

great deal OF money on account OF the
high prices that have to be paid by. the
dressmakers for skilled machinsts and
embroiderers.

OF any kind. The effect is very beautiful
and more suitable than leaving the

narrow waist line of black velvet. The
sleeves were in full tucks at the top. the
fullness falling into a black velvet wrist

This blouse was most simple, and very
Frenchy.
Wide. folded belts of panne velvet are
still fashionable. and are on many of the
gowns now being designed for the au-
