to be too little distinction between

The difficulty is not, perhaps, be.

Is a current remark in Paris concern

pronounced and often outre, styles are
sent to America, since here the mar

take in all sorts and conditions.
There is, besides, money, and to

of women.

porters have been satisfied that the

During the last year two American
girls who have married Frenchmen
have had the unique experience Of
having their husbands request them to
lay aside their extensive trousseaux
and to provide themselves Instead
with lingerie and gowns more refined

These trousseaux, however, had
been bought in America at enormous
expense, since they were imported"

Women os Fashion Taller.

Society women in the United
Kingdom undoubtedly are becoming
taller with every passing generation.
There are in the present decade many
who are Of goodly height, and 1t Is
noticeable that the debutantes of each
succeeding year appear to have gained
little in their average of stature.
Among the fashionable matrons of
American birth who hold their heads
higher than the society herd are -Prin-
cess Hatzfeldt, Cora, Countess Of
STAFFORD, Mrs CORVALLIS West, Mrs.
John Jacob Astor and Mrs. Potter
Palmer. Glancing over the English
world of fashion one calls to mind as
among the tall women of Mayfair,
Lady Desborough, Lady Herbert, Lady
de Clifford, Lady Gladys Herbert, Lady
Marjorie Sinclair and the Hon. Mrs.
kefington-Smythe, all of whom are
more than five feet ten inches tall.

Long sleeves are used in all tailor
models.
Dark blue or black coats with Scotch
plaids look stunning.
Japanese sleeves are used In many
coats for older women.
Raspberry is one of the new shades
of felt being used by the milliners.
A waist with round yoke is apt
to be unbecoming to the stout person.
A walking suit of red linen is pro-
nounced much smarter than one of
white.
Braiding of all kinds, more especially
that suggesting the military, is very
popular.
In cut, in color, in trimmings sim
plicity is the dominant tone Of the
smart suit.
The skirt trimmed in panel fashion
is becoming. The panels may be of
contrasting material.
The little braided hip jackets are
very new and are appropriate with
either long or short skirts.
The collar and cuffs of the bolero
are Of mode broadcloth. Short
sleeves give the picturesque touch
Stripes should be used with discre-
tion. They have tendency to make
the stout woman appear conspicuous.
Long skirt suits have fancy coats or
jaunty hip jackets, three-quarters or
still longer coats that almost reach
to the edge Of the skirt.
Much attention is being paid to a
rainy day outfit. Coats, especially,
can be made very attractive when
trimmed with buttons. pipings, collar

Longest Year on Record.

The longest year on record was 46
B. G. julius Caesar ordained that It
should have 445 days, and 1t did
everywhere within the Roman Sphere
of influence"
To clear away all the confusion
which had previously existed in rec
onciling the lunar with the solar
year, Caesar, with the help of Sosie-
genes, an Alexandrian astronomer,
undertook thorough reform of the
calendar.
He effected 1t by making the year
now called 46 B. c., "the year of con-
fusion" consist of 445 days, and the
succeeding years of 1865 days, with
the exception of every fourth year,
which was to consist of 366. This
method is called the Julian calendar.
