them back to front, the deep buckle
coming In front, while the narrower
one, with its holes for adjusting, goes
at the back. This plan gives a pretty

New osrmsnts are Made In Three %
Four Ways.

Skirts are made In one OF three or
four different ways. But Just for the
moment the favorite IL the plated
straight skirt. But It all depends upon
the material after all and the fancy
plated skirt with the plaits set In be-
low the hips is q model that 10 much

consisting of two deep ruf1es. each
one-half the depth Of the spirit, is
selected as the model in soft silks and
poplins.
The seven gored empire skirt Is one
Of the best models. This is q plain
walking skirt. It IL fitted around the
hips. but spreads widely below. 1t In
made without ornamentation of any
kind. but is finished with two or three
plain bands around the foot. These
bands are of velvet, sewed upon the
upper edge only, SO as to set out well
and make a pretty finish for the skirt
The five gored skirt is also one OF
the popular designs. but It needs to
be trimmed, and the wide.- handsome
border of heavy lace around the bot
tom Is favorite way Of trimming this
style Of skirt. Still another popular
method is that of applying ruffie
about foot wide, with heading of
lace, or with piping Of silk, or some
fiat velvet bands.
The killed skirt is much In evidence,
and there are skirts that are made
with the plaits turning back sharply
from the front. They are wide and so
arranged as to leave a very broad
front panel, which is ornamented in
some manner This wide front panel
may be trimmed with lace or with
braided design.
The use of lace upon winter skirts
may seem a questionable stretch of
appropriateness. yet when one sees
the beautiful winter gowns that are
trimmed with lacy materials one is
forced to change ones mind as to the
use of lace on winter gowns. Many of
the handsomest winter costumes are
trimmed with filmy materials. Lace
dyed, tan lace, brown lace and laces
In black and white are all much worn.
The mixed fabrics are so pretty
that they need little or no decoration,
and many of the dressmakers abso-
lutely refuse to trim them in anyway.

Commissioner Tatum and county

These goods members of the
