in which all young women seem now to
be incased, with their fat TERED trimmings and
straight lines stin trimmings only
for the young and fresh looking; for the
figure they positively ugly well ridiculous
So in the wardrobe OF the woman of maturer years
who has good Judgment to dress, tnics of various
forms are taking their place.
Fortunately for the middle aged woman black is the
predominant note in fashions this winter Not the
DUH lusterless black, the soft shmmery fabrics
Even where black is influence $ felt on
other colors this They noticeably richer
season.
Light vivid shades pretty, and it is hard not to
be able to them when they in style but they
are only possible for slender figures, so 1t is quite
relief to the stout years when the
temptation to them is removed This
simply must look slight and fragile, regardless Of
weight and waist measurements, 1t is singularly
fortunate that the deeper darker and richer tones
have into their opportunely, for they do
make woman look slender
As the middle aged woman ought to quiet
anyhow, so the new mode is most kind to her to
the rest of Black, iron gray gun metal, the new
blues, poplar green, and the deep browns the
Smartest shades and any them. A
middle aged who Is too stout does not
necessarily have to relinqush all light colors but
ought to remember that the bright little
crude and youthful looking and need be yelled
chiffon, marquisette silk wolfe, something that
sort II she would appear at her
She should also remember that the the long
sleeve and the high the safest. 1t takes a
young looking throat wear coliaress waist though
lot of women forget nowadays and plunge
fashion OF wearing even neck dresses regard
less Of the tracks left by Father Time
What the average middle aged stout woman must
hsht against with all her might the tendency look
dowdy or drab colored. We have all the woman
whose whole appearance is drab neutral tone. abso
lutely unattractve, Her complexion is leaden her
eyes are dull and ooloress her hair is dry posi-
bly, streaed with gray her whole appearance betokens
lack Of care Her clothes seem TO have caught the
gFayness OF tone and often dull and unbeooming
Take the question Of years corseting have

waist line and a consequent enlargement hip line

Reducing the hip measure, the flesh be nodded

Another point of the new corsets is the freedom

corsets suppleness Of figure only be retained ~,
giving more freedom above the waist line Never lace

out Such result is inartisc and gives thai
dreaded effect called the aged back
The skirt OF the corset should be well held down
by hose supporters A woman will need onl,
TWO or three pairs for her corset her corses are

stout woman will need couple Of extra pairs
The eorsets this season quite long in the
fronts and sides as they were last seasonperhaps

OF the long corset models The middle aged woman
houu De quite as particular about the size OF her
sets as of their length They should be three inches
smaller than the waist measure
Then there is the problem Of hats Apparently the
