Trappiug the Andean Condor

Anyone who has ever watched a heavy bird rise from the ground has doubt- less noticed that it runs along the ground for a few feet before it rises; the bird must acquire some momentum before it's wings can lift it's heavy body into the air. The natives in certain parts of the Andes understand this fact very well and by means of it catch the great Andean vultures, the condors. A small space is shut in with high fence and left open at the top. Then a lamb or a piece of carrion is placed on the ground inside. Presently yulture sees the bait and swoops down upon it, but when once he finds he has alighted on the ground in- side he cannot get out, for he has no run ming space in which to acquire the mo- mentum that is necessary before his wings can lift him.

form charming background to an other wise hard style of hat
 For afternoon wear skirts are long. and, indeed, almost trained again; here. the picture hat with it's sweeping plumes and curtain of lace is fitting accom- paniment. Great stoles of chiffon with fur edging and muffs to match (some- times marabout is used instead of fur will be prominent note among reception and Riviera toilettes.
 But to return to the practical wants of the workaday woman. The difficulties of the blouse problem are greater than they used to be, for. unless of a very smart order we do not seem anxious to have much in the way of collars. The hour of the transparent yoke and decol- lete neck for day wear is happily over, though there are still few women who persist in showing favor 10 this most in- congruous fashion. High collars are de rigeur now. and even our capes and ruffles have softeniEg plisse effects brought up high at the back of the neck, held in place by a buckle; they are sometimes even finished with a wide Medici collar.
 At this time of year l think the most practical material for blouses in delaine; it is little thinner than flannel. washes admirably. and is produced in all kinds of attractive spots. checks and patterns Checks of a small order will be used and stripes. too. will play an important part in the wooden and cotton fabrics of the future. The best way of mak- ing a delaine blouse is with turnover sailor collar and tie passed beneath, finishing in a neat bow or knot in the front. II should be simply made with a few small box plaits back and front and on the sleeves.
 The afternoon blOuses are of chiffon, mousseline de soie, etc, and show an enormous quantity of gaugine and en- crustations of lace; sometimes, too. they are ornamented with frils and ruches. Altogether the reception or demi-tOilette blouse is complicated garment and displays more elaboration than the regulation dress bodice
 In our illustrations will be found pie lures of three dainty gowns that. though elaborate and expensive as here shown. may be reproduced in cheaper materials and still retain their air of elegance.

 for chic Americans are in soie de Chine and silk muslins, fiounced nearly up to the waist. Some of the most beautiful are sealloped and have embroidered edges. while others show fiounces trim med with handsome embroideries or denteIle worked with gold thread
 There may, of course, be a reaction later on, but somehow think that with the pelerine effects and the increased furore for taffeta, We must remain faithful to the skirt of many founces.
 The silk frocks are very quaint The long. pointed bands a la Marie Antoin- ette are in keeping with the fiehu-like affects on the bodice and the fiounced skirt Some of the pelerines are also fouBced.

 men A few fortunate women can wear the garments designed by the great artlsts in the world of dress. but there are so many among us who have the same aspiration but not, alas, the means to carry them out.
 Now there is the question of blouses to be considered for whatever La Mode may say about the wearing of dress oodlces, waistcoats and front. the prac- ucal woman must nearly always have shirt or a blouse.
 TOT Instance, when you go out to lunch. II you are not driving. you will walk in coat and skirt, and when you remove the former You will wish to present neat and smart appearance Again. when calling in the afternoon, unless you are one of those fortunate folks possessed of carriage. you must wear something light underneath your fur wrap or coat

 advise all who adopt the tailor-made costume to avoid the picture hat. h. congruity of any kind is always bad style, and there is no excuse for this incon- gruity, as the close-ftting tOques of the moment are charming.

soft kid leather and suede fastened with heavy gold buckles are de rigueur. whilst of the better frocks the real corselet band or the Marie Antoinette boned corsage is a distinctive feature.

Coarse canvas effects will be more to the fore than they were last year and conventional designs will be produced in delaines, lawns, batistes. etc. Stripes are also worn, but not nearly so much as checks, and spots have given place for the moment to chess-board patterns.
 Noile of a very coarse make, like old fashioned canvas or hopsack, is again in favor, but it is early yet to predict which will be the fabric of the season.
