y SPITE of the undoubted popular
1 ity of the many sorts of frocks, the
shirt waist is one Of the most popular
garments. and nothing has been de-
signed that quite fills its place.
A type Of waist that the average wo-
man viii find of inestimabIe benefit
is pictured in the mooeI given today.
In this design various possibilities are
offered, as the waist may be made
with the sailor collar that is extreme
y good looking and comfortable, if
preferred, while a neckband is given
for wear with separate collars. The
sleeves also offer the possibility Of
plain or gathered tops. and in either
fun OF shorter length, the later being
an excellent style when the sailor col
lar is used. The front OF the waist
can be made with either plat or coat
closing. The yoke facing is an at,
tractive feature that adds to the gen
eraI appearance Of the waist. but need
not necessarily be used The arrange
ment Of the tucks. which are turned
in box plat effect, gives a smart and
unusual tone to the waist.

EVENING GOWN TIME

have nearly got back TO 'the dress that
stood alore." Of which our grand
mothers were 50 proud.
The waist lines are higher than nor
mai, and every gown has a sash or cir
die Of some sort These sashes are edged
with fringing or trimmed with banded
embroidery in cut steel gold silver OF
jet beads, very small in size. CoIored
and white rubber beads are also permis-
sibIe.
Sleeves are all short: the long-sIeeved
evening dress Of a few years ago has

RETURN OF EMPIRE
HERALDEDFROM PARIS

Waist lines were up and now they
are down: but with imperishabie eX-
uberance they are going Up again Thus
runs the latest report from Paris, the
Wall street Of fashion
In other words, the en- pire styles are
returning, and those OF Us who still
have our high-waisted Gowns Of last
year would better bide our time and
wait for their return 10 favor.
This return IS presaged in thOUs-
and ways-by the very short jackets
with coat suits at the Paris races, by
the boleros of different color from their
shirts. BY the high gfrdles caught al
most under the arms, and the tuIl. lOnS
skirts that fail from these girdles. by
the fashionable frilI itself, which IS
getting shorter and shorter, until Il IS
becoming the actual empire mode
