shops. The sketch for today shows seven
of these waists. each beautiful and each
practical. Paquin has shown many OF
them, and so also have Drecoll and Be-
choff David.
The first waist to the left of the pic
ture is satin in a beautiful shade OF
prune. 1t is intended to be worn with
broadcloth suit OF the same color. and
it would most admirably finish such
costume. The yoke and cuffs are OF baby
Irish lace. and satin-covered buttons or
nament the skin-tight sleeves.
The second blouse Is Of pale corn
colored satin-a shade. by the way. at
present much worn in Paris. The lace
which trims this is a dyed cluny. and
the ever-present buttons are covered
with the satin. This is intended to wear
with velvet suit in a shade of brown.
Two kinds of net form the next waist
A plain fine mesh net is ma de into mar

embroidered dot is used as an insertion.

Inexpensive Guimpes

question arises. .'Of what shall the

in a silk to match the material OF the
gown.
The same idea might be carried out In
many ways. The lace might be a copy
of the old drawn work: 1t may be the
ordinary point de Paris. Again. It might
be coarse valenciennes. The outlining
of the design may be done with little
trouble and no expense. so the guimpO

OUR CORSET STORY BY YQ 9aa E Afia X XS5Ks
THE LONG AND THE SHORT OF IT

q URE enough, womankind has been
terribly stirred up this season
- about the fashions. The launching
Of the sheath gown was shock. ana
the predictions about Clothes in general
and corsets in particular-were nothing
short Of appalling.
But. you know, it is one Of the charac-
teristics Of the American woman to
jump to conclusions. A fault it Is term
ed by some. but it embodies such spon-
taneity and freshness that older and
wiser heads condone it.
Well. as always happens after a great
excitement. we come down to earth. and
the modification Of the extreme is usu-
ally very satisfactory. The case OF the
corset is no exception to- the rule.
The new corsets are high and low.

but they are not designed to distort the
figure as has been threatened. II you
have noticed well dressed women. you
have realized that the silhouette lacks
nothing Of grace.
You were alarmed at the thought that
hips were to be eliminated. yet the
eliminating process has resulted in just
sufficient equalization of the figure to be
attractive. Notwithstanding discussion
and criticism. the corset Of the moment
has. perhaps. for its mission the per-
fecting of the natural figure more than
has had any corset for many a season.
Just a practical word about the LONG
and short Of the corset-they must in
a measure be considered as comparative
terms. The corset must be high or low
for the individual wearer. The corset

house, and for these occasions she wears
the English tea gown. Some of these
are the height OF simplicity combined
with the most extravagant magnificence.
One. for instance. recently seen at a
great couturier's. was Of meteore silk
made with the Greek tunic and held over
the bust by bands of embroidered rib
bon. A bordure OF material outlined
the classic gown and the skirt was very
long and supple.
Another gown was coral liberty silk
in a princess form, tied below the
waist line in the back and held in place
by buckle. The decolletage was filled
in by pleated chiffon OF black.

FOR THE SLENDER ONE

The slender woman may assume the
high corset with less danger than the
stout woman: the long corset IL. Of
course. good for both alike.
It is sometimes wise for the very stout
woman to select corset very long be-
low the waist line. but not Of such ex.
IRENE height above the waist. Over
such a corset she wears q brassiers
which practically adjusts the hesh
above the line Of the corset. It prevents
that bullying, shelving effect-too often
noticeable. 1t fiattens the back ana
equalizes the bust and prevents the
possibility Of ridge OF fat-for that 10

The elections OF the first degree in Con

have resulted as general rule i'm the
success of Greeks. who succeeded in
obtaining the support of majority of
the electors in many localities where their
community is in the minority Many such
elections have been annulled by the local
authorities In consequence of petitions to
the great annoyance of the Greeks. who
now threaten to abstain from voting.
In some cases the Greeks appear to have
cause to complain of the arbitrary action
of the local authorities. i'm others the
Turks accuse them of corrupt practices.
but a general rule it may be said
that the Greek vote is better organized
and the Greek population more interested
in the elections than is the case with
their Moslem rivals. The committee of
union and progress is taking steps to Or

of the Roman municipality in assuming

Reactionary counsels are once more

To this victory of common sense the
