nIndIviduaIItyg in Dress.


With the wide latitude which fash

dress, it is not difficult matter for

deed individuality" has become the
slogan of the we'll dressed. Some
thing which is not only becoming, but
expresses "her"-her taste, her indi-
viduality-original ideas adapted to
her particular style.
Sarah Bernhardt, with the authority
of a great artist, who studies every
point and with the inherent instinct
of her country to please in appearance,
dwells with emphasis upon the point
Of preserving and enhancing ones in
dividuality. That one can do this
and submit to the doctrine of imperi-
GUS fashion is a paradox.
The extremes of styles are most
marked at the present moment, not
only in materials, but in mode of CON
struction sis we'll. Simplicity walks
hand in hand with an elaboration OF
trimming which quite bewilders the
eye.

care of street. Gowns.

There's nothing which tends to
lengthen the life of a good street suit
so definitely as taking it off as soon
as you come in, brushing it and put
ting it away on its hanger. Lounging,
as you're bound to do in measure
in your home, plays havoc with tailor
ed clothes. It's rather temptation
to sink into an easy chair when you
come in. just tired enough to enjoy the
prospect Of idling for a little while. but
those very times take the life out of
the sort of cloth that tailors sell, and
probably lays fine little creases which
result in incorrigible mussing. It's
rather a temptation, too, to hang It
up and postpone brushing and putting
away properly to later time, when
you're rested, but it pays to do 1t
at the time, for dust should be got
rid of before it has time to settle into
the cloth and give it that dingy look
which mars SO many otherwise good
looking suits, and careful hanging pre-
vents forming of bad lines.

Certain browns and pinlxs consort

creamy tea-rose tint, trimmed in
brown velvet, worn with brown furs
and big pink tulle hat trimmed with
brown plumes and a touch OF fur

any way.

night before the party caucus. Henry

down to consider the future.

Then the fury Of the fight was re
