THE oNE-PIEcE GOWN.
Fashionable and Becoming, 1t Is Pop
uIar This Winter.

Each week gives added popularity
to the one-piece frock 1t really is cut
in two pieces, but that's a mere de-
tail. The gown is the thing this win
ter.
A coat suit is all very we'll for a
workaday world or busy hours, but
when one is in the house or going any
where where friends are gathered
together, the one-piece frock is the
correct costume.
Over it can be dropped long coat
of cloth, satin or fur, which is dis
carded at the house.
These gowns are made of such soft
cloth that one of them was run
through a bracelet as a test. 1t was
dull pink messaline, with full, foppy,
untrimmed skirt and a directoire
jumper.
Others are made of navy blue, black,
catawba and wistaria satin and satin
cloth. There is no lining, but a great
many buttons.
In some of them shallow guimpe
with long sleeves is attached but the
majority are made up without
guimpes.
While they vary in trimming, the
general lines are the same; straight,
high-waisted skirt, narrow short-waist-
ed blouse, small square sleeves and
shallow round neck.
These gowns are so soft and pliable
that they can be put in travelling bag
without being muSsed.
There has never been so becoming
and fashionable a costume which will
take up SO little space and have so lit
tie weight as this new one-piece frock.
The idea is carried out in everyday
indoor frocks made of soft woolens,
summer cheviots, plaid cashmeres.
The skirts are cut short and wash
guimpes are worn under them. No belt
is needed, as the high-waisted skirt is
cut into scallops or battlements and
piped and stitched to the blouse.

Exercise for InvaIids.

When one is confined to bed for a
long time it is necessary to give the
invalid some form of simple exercise
If cost is not an objection, this is best
managed by a trained masseuse
She should come every other day or
oftener, as the doctor advises. Deep
massage will stir up all the organs
and prevent sluggishness.
Careful rubbing, alternating with
gentle pinches to start circulation, is
a good substitute for massage, with
the advantage that it can be done by
an amateur nurse.
Care must be taken not to permit an
invalid to Overture in her zeal for ex-
ercise. The best time to take it is two
hours after eating. 1t must continue
but a few minutes at time and the
vigorous movements of health should
be forbidden.

wear black from choice may find the
most charming bleuses in black crepon
at really moderate prices, considering
the excellent style and workmanship.
Being of a creepy surface very little
trimming is necessary. Often it will
he only lace or fagoting. One pretty
model seen recently had the long
sleeves crossed with fagoting, which
was effective on the crinkly material.
The collar and short yoke was a COM
bination of heavy lace and fagoting.
