The sectional sleeve of coarse dag

OF some half-wOrn garment, an ec0H-

There for instance, is the model Wltn

ed over a plain skirt OF rose satln. 1 IllS

partly worn lace slip which is allowed
to peep forth at the yoke and elbows.
Drecou is responsible for the fiounced
gown which IS a revival Of an 1880
style The waist is fashioned of lace
like the hounces. The girdle, Of palest
blue satin. almost white. is held by a
huge handmade rose OF deep pink
satin. The other flowers which have
been used TO ornament the skirt are
simple TO make and only imply q use
Of odd bits of delicate satin.
The model is made upon q plain
skirt Of white, but suggests the revival
of some rare old brocade which has
been used but Will never wear out The
whole color scheme may be changed to
suit the brOcade, and chiffon bits may be
utilized for the artificial flowers.
The general shape Of the bodice. the
sleeve and the lines OF the f1ounces on
the skirt could be beautifully developed
in Powered organdie or in silk muslin,

NF COURSE. there Is the stir in
the air resulting from the exodus
south. and with this in view the
great nodistes and milliners plan
their work with the idea OF the beautt-
full setting that Cannes. Nice and the
Riviera offer for these costumes.
Those less fortunate Parisians who
must remain in the gay capital are
quick to profit by the tempting models
for spring. and in the tea rooms and
on the boulevards there are already
straw hats that show which way the
wind blows.

Even the cloak for evening wear has

first note OF Parisian\ spring has been

These coatlike garments are of plain
material over figured swiss, and while
the reason for their existence is mainly
that their belts may give Russian out

gowns. they succeed in retaining the
fashion for two materials.
Colored Innings are returning for use

Of Mr.. and Mrs. C, S. Field died
at Shuqualak Wednesday even

done to restore to health this
bright, loving and promising'boy,
but all was of no avail. His re-
mains were inferred in the grave
