illumination. Manufacturers of various
Kinds OF garments have different sea
sons Tor the display of new STYLES to
the retail buyers. The chief millinery
openings for instance, begin August
10. Inc dressmakers. however, are busy
throughout the year. They display
their handiwork on living models, every
gown being made especially for the
particular young woman who is en-
trusted with its exhibition. Thus. the
gowns are shown to the best possible
advantage, for there is perfect har-
mony with the hair, the form, the com.
plexion and every other detail. The
european representatives OF American
nrms say there is no danger that Lon
don, Brussels, or any other city will
ever usurp the place held by Paris as
arbiterr Of the world g fashions. New
York is making great strides forward
Increasingly attractive inducements,
but the demand for things Partisan
continues.
In only one article Of apparel docs
the American woman of a certain am
bilious type fail TO model after the
French woman. She regards French
footwear as an atrocity and it is un-
likely that she will abandon her COM
nonsense shoes for the unsightly, mar
row Partisan article.
An American who has been in charge !
of the Paris office of his company for
seventeen years, says: 1.-THE Partisan
woman lives before her mirror-that is
one secret of her attractive appearance. |
Every bow and fold is tested and stud |
led. They have their part to play in
the general picture she proposes to pre-
sent and this must be as nearly perfect !
as she is able to make it. An American !
woman, ON the other hand, frequently /
dresses inconsisteDtly and inappropri- !
ately. Because a hat of n certain shape /
is worn in Paris she has one made like |
it, but at the same time, she may wear
n skirt whose appearance, in such a !
connection, would make a French !
woman shudder. Though the American |
woman does not possess by nature the |
chic which adds so much to her Partisan |
sisters attractiveness. she has a facial |
charm often lacking here. She seldom |
"makes up" but if she does it is done |
so deftly as not to advertise the fact, |
To "overdo the thing" is a Partisan |
failing From my observations l have |
reached the conclusion that tho best ap- !
pearing woman in the world is the !
years in Paris. She then combines her |
natural facial charm with the Partisan |
'Eair,p combination which is irrcsisti- |
BILE.
Smitten bv the prevailing mania
which has attacked all classes OF the
working community of France, some of |
the artists models of Paris have
formed a union. The members are all
pirls-pretty, shapely girls, who make
q specialty Of posing in the nude. The
organization, which is believed TO be |
the only one of its kind in the world,
has applied for papers of atflllation
with the Central Trades Council .0pl,
oni. oui, it is true,' exclaimed Mile.
Solapge, the organizing secretary and
walking delegate, in her room on the
ton floor of an apartment building IN
the Montmarte quarter. Mile Solange
is a handsome brunette Of about ~.
She explained that no workers IN Paris
are on their feet moro than the models.
They begin posing early In the morn
ing, and, with infrequent, brief inter,
missions. must stand immovable until
dark The union will ask for higher
standard of pay. 1t proposes, too, TO
act as the official intermediary between
members and artists, when disputes
arise, and plans the establishment or
a sick fund. No male models will be
admitted.
French institutions are intertwined
with red tape which frequently. is an
moving, but which sometimes has its
advantages But for lit it P"rn L9Gn ssboolt MadGt'
