ARTS, May 21.-The immortal
vicar of Wakefield, whose adj
ventures were all made by the
H Preside and whose migrations
were limited from the blue
room to the brown" would find few
followers in these days of constant
change and globe trotting. One of the
inevitable results of our complex civil
lizatfon is the necessity for their NOV
ing about. The strenuous life as we
know it in society keeps us perpetually
on the go, and to spend more than
three months in one place is an lmpos-
sibility for the modern woman The
summer exodus time is upon US now,
and the particular fad of the season is
for the smart Partisan society leader to
run down to her chateau in Normandy,
BRITTANY or wherever this estate hap
mems to be located and, having settled
the small members of the family for
the summer, to HE herself off to Lands
End on a motoring tour with party of
congeniaI friends.
The warm weather of the last week
has also had an extraordinary effect on
toilets. We have shaken out from their
boxes our lightest and most summary
frocks of wolfe and batiste, and wher-
ever the goddess of fashion is to be
seen her costumes are all stamped with

very much to the fore and makes re-
markedly useful and chic little gown
quiet enough for morning wear. The
skirt is usually gathered all around in
innumerable little plaits, only the front
breadth "f1atly" refusing to follow any
but the full line thrown we'll out at the

yoke dipping in front in a small scoop,
with the same movement repeated on

placement is edged with a jour of the

ment are frequently of broderie An
glaise or the new coarse embroidered
linen. Then there is a coarse cotton
material recalling the cOlOrs one sees

asked a little country friend who
was recently experiencing that delight
full sensation of a first visit to Paris
what were the points that struck her
most during her visit to the vile Lu
miere. One was the Venus of Milo.
She was enthusiastic over this ideal of
female loveliness, but what seemed to
impress her even more than the SpIen-
did proportions of this sculptured dame
was the number of buttons worn on
smart gowns and the new stocks for
tailor made costumes, on which much
of her slender dress allowance had
been squandered. From the Milo to
neck stocks would in most cases be
fall from the sublime to the ridiculous,
but this neck trimming is too inpor-
tant a consideration to be laughed at,
for as a matter of fact the new stocks
represent the making or marring of the
thin, severe, summary tailor made
gown, and I think Venus herself would
look well in one of these little Partisan
stocks.
The newest and neatest little stock
to be worn with the costume tailIeur is
