thoughtful mothers may learn things
Of vital Importance to their own and

The Clothes Little Woman Ought to
Wear.
Just back from Paris, the tiny mite
of woman was airing her views on
clothes.
"The American dressmaker takes too
little account of height, but lays all
the stress on weight" she said. "Her
clients are apt to be divided into two
classes-stout and slender. The slender
little woman Of five feet gets about the
same treatment at her hands as the
slender young amazon of five feet
seven or eight.
"A malines bow at the back OF the
neck is wonderful lmprover to little
persons. 1t adds height marvelously.
Then there is the shoulder. Feel Of
my shoulder seam. 1t corresponds ex-
actly with my shoulder line, but let it
be fraction of an inch too long and
am no longer petite, but a dwarf.
Heavy. coarse materials are only for
the tall. Fine, smooth surfaces are
for US. And there is this about the
skirt: Fullness should begin at the hip.
not below 1t; otherwise the skirt be-
comes mere fiounce instead Of n thing
Of lines. Between the waist line and
the hips the skirt should be perfectly
fitted.
THE hat for q small person Is more
becoming IL 1t matches the uppermost
part of the costume. IL the bodice is a
tint, the hat should be OF the same
complexion. In the case of a very
small woman. waist and skirt of diff
ferent tones or colors are not to be
thought OF. Even the gloves do their
part IN making OF marring the picture.
White ones With dark gowns dwarf
the height, and So too. do capes and
other fussy shoulder arrangements
Trimmed skirts and braided effects are
also ruled out"

MeIts on supper Table,

Fire OF unknown origin almost entirely
destroyed the first floor and stairway OF
the residence of Andrew B. Graham, at
1907 Sixteenth street northwest, late yes
terday afternoon.
The flames were discovered about s
O'Clock by one Of the occupants, who,
detecting the smell Of smoke, opened the
door of the library TO find the whole
place ablaze. The FIRE had apparently
started in some heavy drapeTies. which,
burning quickly. set fire to the furniture.
MI Graham and members Of his family
barely had time to escape from the house
before the Railways were filed with
dense smoke.
A search of the dining-room showed
that a number OF pieces Of siIverware
and service, which had been placed on
the dining table in preparation for the
evening meal. had been completely de-
stroyed, having been melted by the in
tense heat into a solid mass Although
the furnishings OF the floor above suffered

first floor was completely ruined. The
loss, which is placed at about 5000, is
