Kerouan may now be reached by rail
from TuniS via -Susa, but this modern

gem in a brown setting. developed in
deathlike silence without the walls, one

ton, for at the meeting of the National
Dressmakers' association many of these
sbustle gowns will be exhibited, and
it will be interesting to note how the
models move about in them. Mrs. Ba-
ker, the president, says that wired
gowns are the latest things in Paris,
and that all the frocks are founced and
frilled in most extravagant way. Two
hundred or three hundred dollars is a
mere bagatelle, she says, for something
to cover the female covered. Moth
| ing to wear will be the predicament
Of many unless Mrs. Baker exaggerates.
