The adapta- bility of this material tc the present modes ia strongly exemallied in the pie tured dress of pearl gray cashmere.

Her walking suit Is of the latest cut short walking skirt gOred to flare grace fully around the feet; this topped with semi-ftting coat, single breasted and correctly pocketed. The fronts are cut away diagonally just below the waist line. A bit of harmonious color may, if one chooses, be introduced ip the collar the new blondine shade being very at- tractive on the black and dark color suits. With this suit Is worn q service able hat and the most fashionable foot wear-high button or lace boot, with ex- tension soles, and moderately high heels Dogskin gloves, or those of natural col ored chamo:s. which are somewhat newer. and the smartest of neckwear, topping the plain tailored shirtwaist, complete the costume Of the business woman of to-day.

Hark back 10 rho seventies. those of us who will acknowledge remembrance of things so long past. or search in attic trunks for the gowns our mothers wore at that period and you have a very accurate representation of the dernier cri from Paris. Paquin. the daring. the persistent. the much criticised and the much more followed Pacuin shows the overskirt. Not just a simple tun!c effect such as has been hanging on .he fashion horizon now for several seasons. but real oldfashioned oyerskirt with a puckering half way be- tween the waist and the knee, quite like those worn in the late seventies. Some of the skirts have the oyerskirts loose. over sham skirt, as they were called in ther last incarnation. others have the puckered front, but are otherwise straight skirt.

The French are great advocates of the weight, and we rarely see 2 French garment that Is not weighted somewhere. so that this string of weights Is not radical departure.
 The Vatican effect Is another departure in skirts. The term "watteau" repre- sents any straight hanging folds or pleats. It Is variOusly applied 10 any of the dress effects immortalized by the great painter. Its present use Is best illustrated in one piece costumes. where the back breadth Is set fin a flat, double box pleat, or scant folds from a high
