vantage OF a lifelong training in matters
pertaining TO the feminine wardrobe. The
chances are that as boy he has accom-
panied his mother and sisters to the dress
makers: most certainly he has passed
patient hours in their company while they
have discussed serious problems OF MILL
merry, and in that way has learned the shib-
boleths Of the trade. Most certainly as a
young husband he not only counsels his
wife as to what is suitable for her. but
goes TO the dressmakers with her and
often personally superintends her fittings.
To the transatlantic eye one Of the most
curious sights OF the coutouriers and mo-
distes quarters is the great number OF men
who seem 10 be scattered among the GUS

he would consider Unwarranted II presented
10 him in the cold confines Of a dressmak-

any objections will be futile, for II he can
withstand his own women folks, he is
hardly able TO do this when they are re-
inforced by the wies Of clever and
persuasive French saleswoman. In fact
the ease by which these sirens of the
dressmaking establishments can conjole a
big order out Of a level headed, economy
preaching American business man may well
be matter of astonlshment 70 his family
But the Frenchman, on the other hand,
does not come TO the dressmaker with his
wife for the purpose of backing any big
dressmaking bills. on the contrary, he is
ant to drive q better and more persuasive
bargain with the dressnaker than she
could do. and he is also able TO discuss au-
thoritatively with that person questions OF
line. color, what suits madame's complex
ion. madame's age and the purpose for
which the gown Is destined. Unlike the
American. he is apt TO know what he IS

The good looking girl IS always in great
demand 70 assist at wedding ceremonies

expenditure OF sums which strain her
slender allowance almost 70 the breaking

several bridal showers. but when it
comes 70 the wedding gift itself she need
not make an elaborate Offering in the
nature Of silver glass or antique rugs. In
fact il is quite the thing now for the
dear friend Of the bride 10 fashion some
hit of exquisite finery with her own
fingers. whether they be skilful or not. II
