The French fiounce Is very narrow ana
very thick. The Russian is about three
inches deep, and one founce Is set over
the other until they are three or four deep.
"Flouncings are made of all sorts OF ma
terials generally to match the lining OF
the skirt. They are seldom of the material

A Longer Waist;
There Is a new trick for producing the
French figure. The French figure he the
waist longer in front than in the back 1t
is difficult to get this. Cersets are made
that produce a straight line below the belt.
But for stout figures this Is difficult; and
to overcome this, the bodice Is pulled long
in front until it is over the belt line and

effect.

YOU seen the new Bingham models, made
up with Indienne. which is a figured calico
under a new name. They are to be worn

and driving, when a lace dress would be

this assertion is disputed by the up-to-
date modistes. who point out to you how
much can be saved by the making of half

pensive gown Don't tie down to one nice
dress; have dozen. Goods are cheap.
