ties In This Country.

Several odd styles have been
launched recently In Paris. They are
merely tentative and II is scarcely
likely that they will be universally
adopted by conservative women. One
of these IL the one. sided bodice with
the left shoulder well covered and the
right entirely bare. the drapery OF the
waist going under instead OF over the
right arm. OF course such style Is
not going to take strong hold on the
community, for most women still have
some idea Of the eternal fitness OF
things lett, in spite OF the training
that the fashions have given them the
last few years. For those who rebel
at such Il drastic style a single film OF
chiffon or tullc is sometimes used over
the right shoulder, while the other
side of the waist is OF the usual type
This filmy cloud is enough to salve the
feelings of some women. although the
effect is the same as II the shoulder

Another of the new fancics is the
keeping of the mnff In the lap not

dinners and in ball rooms. OF course,
