All Things Point to Long Lipes--New
Models In Winter skirts.

1Il'n tuI-dWHy coat, OF III tnc llGlt
military coat, followed by the revival
OF the redingote, and now the warm
ing comes that skirts will feel the
effect of the long line.
The very newest Of these skirts is
called the Paquin. 1t falls full quite
two inches upon the ground all round
the feet, has a slight train; 1t fits like
n sheath about the hips and waist
above which line 1T is carried ending
in a crushed fold across the front by
means of a few gathers. In the SIDE
front are q few ripplcs to relieve the
close fitting adjustment. This model
has been SO named because the wife
OF the great number OF new modes
was the first to wear It. Now Madame
Paquin Is a tall, graceful beautiful
woman, but the average woman will
have to adopt the change. or perhaps
leave altogether alone this new model.
| After our past models, 1t VIII need a
| season or two to get used TO the idea
which contains just a hint of the hahlt
skirt and a hint of the sheath skirt of
some seasons ago.
