Panic-Proof Theaters.

In an article on the Iroquois horror
the Globe e-Democrat says: The Chica
go theater was fire-proof. This sounds
like bitter irony now. 1t needed but
one sheet of fame from the blazing
scenery to bring to naught all the care
OF builders in constructing it's walls,
floors and balconies SO that they would
resist fire. But 1t is not a fire-proof
theater that will save life; it is one
which the audience can leave freely
and instantly at the cry of fire. The
sides of a theater from parQuette to
gallery should be practically all doors.
Reliable employees should be there to
throw them open the moment the audi
ence takes fright. To calm the terri
fed people is best, of course; but all
the doors should be flung open at once
whether they are calmed or not. 1t is
not to provide against fire alone that
thcatcr construction must be planned,
but to provide for panic. 1.-The people
ought not to get frightened" What
nonsense! The people will get fright
ened, and the only safety for them
then is perfectly free egress.

VISITING Costume.

A soft shade Of dark green cloth
with velvet OF slightly darker tint
is used for this visiting costume. The
pretty belted eton has a double rever
effect carried out in velvet with cloth
appliques and in cloth with velvet ap-
pliques. Persian lamb being inserted
In each motif. These revers are
broadly pointed over the shoulders.
The sleeves are Of velvet with seal
loped points beneath, while lingerie
rufiies of plisse chiffon fall over the
hand. The skirt is plain. the only
trimming being the appliques of vel
vet and fur, such as appear on the
eton. The white beaver hat is strapped
with broad gold braids and the long
plume in white shades to pink and
jacqueminot at the tip.

tucks at the back while those at the
front give a pointed yoke effect and
provide fulness below. The sleeves
are the latest ones with full puffs at

Guns which match the stock collar.

de cynge with collar and cuffs of vel
vet and cut steel buttons.
The waist consists of the fitted lin.

Debutante,s Costume.

A soft, white, clinging goods known
as siciiienne. very popular this year,
Is cleverly used in a debutante's cos
tune. The corsage is arranged with
handkerchief yoke and bertha,
heavy lace being employed, and the
tucked sicilienne blouses slightly into
the white silk crush belt of girdle
shape. The goods is tucked on the
shoulders and wherever else the lace
parts to show it. The sleeves also
are tucked to the elbows; the fullness
is allowed to puff and the lower part
OF the sleeve is of lace which matches
in kind the bertha and yoke. A far
ing cuh is the finishing feature of the
sleeve. The skirt falls in graceful
folds and shows considerable of a
train. In design the skirt offers
striking novelty, being built in five
sections, the horizontal tucks con-
cealing the joinings. Each section
has its own tucking which keeps the
skirt in complete harmony with the
tucked waist. The hip yoke is
shirred pun and the drop skirt has
several fiounces, the upper rufie be-
ing of chiffon and. making a fluffy fin
ish for the pretty skirt. Naturally
nothing heavier than white silk and
chiffon should be allowed to 60 under
all this daintiness.

Pretty Hat Embellishments.

Large e-sized silk cord is something
entirely new in hat trimmings and is
most effective. A dark blue felt toque
is trimmed with blue silk cord of
much lighter shade This cord is
wound several times around the
crown and looped and knotted at one
side, the ends being brought together
and fastened with shaded blue ca
bochon in the center of the looping.
Silver cord and cabochons form an
effective trimming on white felt and
black velvet hats respectively. Silver
soutache braid is sewed to velvet or
satin ribbon, and with half of the mid
die. or the edges, of the ribbon left
plain, is then used for bands and fiat
bows. Silver and gold gauze ribbons
are used for hat bindings.
