THE USEFUL SAILOR.
Comes in Odd Shapes for Spring and
Summer Wear

Sailor hats will be smart next spring.
They are to be worn in a variety of shapes.
with upturned dOwn-turned, curved and
denied brims, and are much in evidence In
all of the earlier showings. BY their gen.
eral becomingness, too, an uninterrupted
vogue during the spring and coming sum-
mer seasons is predicted, so that a woman
who invests in one at this early date may
feel convinced that she has a shape that
will be used throughout the summer
The irregular models that will be stylish
offer to the business girl Of limited means
an unusual opportunity for practicing q
gear, for flowers of every form, size and
color are given prominence in trimming,

sess a discarded mass Of foliage from
which they can in all probability extract

SONS and leaves that have done duty in q
bygone season. With the proper freshen.
ing processes applied, these flowers will
come forth quite fresh and new again and
serve admirably for the decoration Of one'a
first hat.

PARIS, January &c, 1907.
This is certainly an age of rush, rush, and
still more rush. Why, one can't even COM
fortably get on or off an omnibus here in
Paris without hearing the guard, or what
ever this military looking individual is
styled. call out in his perfectly suave, polite
French fashion, 'Depacher-vous. ma
dame" AS if you were not at that moment
going at top speed, probably mentally and
physically. For if there is one thing that
is impressed upon Americans from their
earliest childhood it's the fact that time is
money. and if We were as nation, as good
all-round financiers as we are hustlers pow
erty would be unknown. There is hardly
time to think, and as for meditation upon
the Immortality of the soul or any other
serious subject well. in this go-as-you-
please, grab all you-can age it's thought to
be splendid occupation for nuns and the

ing In the hereafter. l reckon most of us

Lace Shawl Frocks.

Lace shawls are made into frocks now.
and are considered particularly smart for
dinner and reception wear. They are really
used exactly like the materials Of which the
robes are made, yet whenever it is not alb
solutely essential to cut in order to make
them fit these shawls are the more expen-
sive and desirable. and woman who pos
sesses one that will make a train-if only
a short oneLs decidedly fortunate. These
laces, besides being unusual are particu-
larly attractive because Of the graceful
folds in which they may be draped about
the body. They are becoming alike to both
stout and slender women.

But what woman would not enjoy think

summer wardrobe even If the actual CO.'S
tunes do not materlalize for a few weeks
yet? Now that the Riviera season is In full

some safe guesses at least to what the
summer styles are likely to develop. Even

launched tentatively will captivate the fancy

predicting for them a greater season than

of sheer shirt waists is the result of the

Even if one is shivering in furs it is a
pleasure to look at the summer hats, and
many of them in malines and horsehair
would not look outre worn with these same
furs, for ones winter chapeau is apt to be
a little the worse for wear at this season
OF course the models shown now are of
the experimental type and follow closely
the lines we are now wearing. Black chip
hats trimmed with handsome ostrich
plumes are to be among the summer ar
ray, and the tendency Is toward dropping
brims on the mushroom order. Maline is
swathed about stunning white hats that are
further beautif1ed with ostrich feathers or
sweeping paradise plumes. Picturesque leg

The reintroduction OF the hour-glass

for long time been making jealous efforts
to reintroduce the wasp-waisted pattern of
feminine humanity.
Now the sight of full. round skirts and
hour-glass corsets will. 1t Is said. be the
feature of the coming season, and the
women who would be fashionable will have
to reduce those increasing inches Of the

popularity Of shirt waists. straight-front

It is reported that the French government airShip, La Patrle, while undergoing an operation for lOCOmOtOr ataX1a or some other ailment, recently took ad vantage of the over confidence Ot it's attendants and escaped, took "French leave" as 1t were, and struck out on a cruise on its own account.
