PettIcoat Problems.

Save for an occasional glimpse of
white lingerie petticoats are not at
all In evidence. 1t does not follow.
Of course. that they are not worn,
for short skirts give no opportunity
for their display; but the aspect of
the women outdoors is so svelte, not
to say maigre. that it is easy to as
sert that their skirts are an unknown
quantity.
Yet the petticoats of this season
have been irresistible things, and
even the last of the season sales
have fascinating things to show. Silky
satin fabrics, clinging to the figure
and made with little to spare in the
way Of width. are still the popular
line. and It is too early yet for win
ter lingerie novelties to put In thsil
appearance.

1t is the day of feathers in the
realm of millinery. That is, in sea
son when all sorts of trimmings are
In vogue. they easily lead as the
most favored of decorations. First
the graceful, and expensive paradise
feathers in unheard of quantities, then
wings and after these all the wonder
full natural and made" feather orna-
ments are used on new fall headwear
in profusion not to be equalled ex-
cept in Indian headgear.
There are two methods of mounting
paradise that are especially effective
ON large shapes. Where there is a
sufficient number of sprays 1t is used
to spring from the base of the crown
and sweep over the top from front
to back or from side-front to back. A
maize colored felt hat faced with
black velvet Is pictured here. There
is tint of yellow maline about the
crown and big bunch of paradise
In the natural colorings mounted at
the left front.
Another exquisite feather Is the
"goura" shown In the velvet turban
with velvet crown. This airy and
delicate looking plumage. like the
paradise, is expensive but beautiful

COMMON SENSE IN CoRsETs
Stout Woman Must sensbIy Adapt
Herself to Increasing Lines
Of Her Figure.

"Of course 1t goes without saying
that 1t Ii the fat woman who has the
most troubles. This much-harassed
woman must learn that flesh has got
to be accepted She cannot push it
aside, because that only makes 1t the
more prominent in place where 1t
ought not to be. However. there real
" is a place for all flesh. but all flesh
must be kept In Its place. Be sure to
remember this when you start to re-
duce your figure. Don't try to move
your abdomen up and then compress
It In place where It does not be-
long. The flesh is adaptable in its
place, but 1t is more than perverse
and obstinate where 1t does not be-
long.
'sThen. above all else, every stout
woman must stop thinking that she
can wear a corset two or three sizes
smaller than she needs by actual
measurement. What earthly difference
does 1t make whether a large, we'll
built woman's waist measures 2G or
30 inches? 1t Is how she looks In her
corset, and how she feels in 1t, that
counts. Let me tell you that the fat
woman looks much better In corset
an inch or 80 too large for her, where
her fat can sink down into 1t, rather
than in corset two or three inches
too small which presses her fat up
and out until 1t appears in many I'M
slightly bulges and bumps. A safe
rule TO follow is to wear a corset In

tural blue-grey colorings as rule and
is not SO beautiful in any dyed color.
1t could not be used more effectively
than In the example shown IN the
picture. The shorter feathers form a
band about the face with a Pocahon-
tas coronet standing and extending
around the head The lovely fam
like crest of the bird is mounted, with
a little fiat satin bow. at the right
side.
The long auger quilts and pheasant
feathers, with their Incompatible
markings. are used In their natural
colorings mostly. They are marked
with cream color and all gradations
of brown down to shade that il al
most black. These are dyed into good
blue, green or red colors, but the
wonderful shading of the natural
feather is sacrificed, although the
dyed feather still remains quite beau
tiful.
A world of fancy feathers. made by
manufacturers, are as pretty as can
be and are inexpensive also. Nearly
all kinds are made. There Ia an end
less variety In these.
