SCIENTIFIC Skirt Cutting.

The trend of fashion in women's
skirts is toward a closer fit and more
sheath-like shape from the waist to
flounce depth. The greater number Of
these skirts are ornamented with
flounces, various depths being en-
p,oyed, while perhaps the graduated
flounce may be considered the most up
to date. The flounces are cut on en-
tirely new lines, being much more cir
cular than eretofore, and produce
more graceful and decided spring
around the foot Of the skirt. This e1-
treme fulness accentuates the clinging
effect Of the upper portion. which must
be fitted with the greatest eXactness.
The. fiounce ripples gracefully being
much more circular than the older
modes, and therefore is fuller around
the bottom. 1t is in two pieces and
slopes gradually until at the back it
is twice lne depth Of the front 1t has
the added advantage that it may be
made with sweep or shorter. for those
who prefer the round length. The
upper or sheath-like portion is held
in place by straps of elastic tackled to
the gore seams as directed on the label
of the pattern. To these elastics are
sewed tapes, that adjustment may be
made,to suit the individual figure. This
fashionable mode is called the form
fitting" or serpentine skirt-The De-
lineator.

Club of Red.Haired Men.

One of the unique social organiza.
tions of the country has recently been
formed at Washington. The only in
flexible rule for membership is that
the applicant shall have red hair. The
society is defined by member as be.
ing society Of protest" but strictly
social in its aims. 1t has no philan.
thropical nor political ideals. and there
is no danger, should the idea spread
and become national in its scope, of
the R. H. C.'s putting forth candidate
for the presidency.
1t seems that the society organized
in rebellion against the antiQuatae
and moldy witticisrs which red.
haired people III all parts Of the civili-
zed and uncivilized world are supposed
to enjoy, or at least to suffer with a
sickly pretense of enjoyment.-Chi-
cago Chronicle.
