Flaring Skirts Preferred.

Many women prefer 1aring skirts
Of many cores for the tub frock, and
these will be a boon to the laun-
dresses who have for several seasons
past wrestled with pleated skirts.
The danger of sagging with wear and
of losing shapeliness in the launder-
ing is, of course, the objection to the
circular wash skirt.

the warm weather and that also make
very charming, fascinating dancing
school and party frocks.
The dress consists of body lining,
which is faced to form the yoke and
on which the tucked and shirred por-
ton is arranged, and the skirt. The
skirt is hemmed and tucked at it's
lower edge and shirred at the upper
and joined to the waist. The pretty
sleeves also are tucked and gathered
at their edges and are finished with
bands.

THE o A

/ know that somewhere there must be
A Backwards Road,
A road like this,
Lending to all old lovely times,
Picnics last year, forgotten rhymes,
And dolls l used to kiss.
But every road beneath my feet
Leads farther off
From yesterday;
And, when I creep into my bed,
] feel it rock beneath my head
Like ships upon their way.
IF I could only find that road,
The Backwards Road,
How quick I'd walk,
And change the naughty things I've done
Pick up my playthings one by one,
, And hear the baby talk:
Florence Wilkinson.

Stitched STRAPS For Coats,

Stitched straps that have their be-
ginning at the shoulders and cross
at the back, with the ends secured at
the waist line with buttons or buckles,
are another outcome of the suspender
vogue, and will be much used for
trimming the back of tailored and
semi-tailored coats.

The Proverbial Good Thing.

The old proverb that one cannot
have too much of a good thing ap-
plies to velvet, or, rather, chiffon
velours, and to the kimono sleeve.
Very pretty. especially for carriage
and evening wraps, is this form of
drapery, and the wearer can keep
coy and warm without crushing her
evening frock.

P~ompadours Going.

Slowly but surely is the pompadonr
roll in the front of the hair losing its
hold on fashionable favor. The front
and side locks most certainly stand
out around the face, but the hard.
stiff and uncompromising line of the
pompadour is no longer thought
smart, and the hair must be in soft
waves over the forehead.
