his official utterances, Minister WI Ting
fang goes back to China with some mis-
givings. He laughs at suggestions of
beheading and compulsory suicide; but
his laugh is not exactly hearty. Itsis

liked for slhirt-waist suits. las a rule, this is
ornamented with small tueks placed very close
together, especially on the skirt The sleeves
may be either, long or short The belt Is
usually a narrow affair in self-nl laterial, and
is frequently pointed< in front. The collars,

collars usually terminate in a sailor knot with
flowing ends. These collars are either in

match these white collars. - %:.@ n
