The Seasons
Wraps

The novelty Of this seasons wrap is
that, in the more daring models, the
sleeve is not a sharply defined portion
OF the garment. Indeed, like the new
dresses il is often only a slit or hole
in the vague ampleness Of the wrap.
To be sure, It Is often faced or has a
cuff effect added, but still 1t Is some
thing newer than the dolman shape
of last season. Another peculiarity
in these newest wraps is the way the
seams are managed, so as to shape
the garment on these new peg-tOp
lines. A seam is often rounding, max
ing a decorative edge over the gar
ment that becomes a part OF it's de-
sign. No concealment Is made that
1t is a seam-it is often Tapped widely
and stitched, and becomes a neces-
sary part Of the wrap. Tassels, cords
fringe, sashes and even rufiles elabo-
rate the more pretentlous models
the same decorations that are used on
the up to-date dresses. Lace plays
less part outside of new metal laces
than passcmenteries or the elaborate
embroidered lacy net coats.

He was originally what is known in the

Positive Proof.

CAMUEL CNTERMYER. the New York
- lawyer. said in Washington of a Ger.
tain exposure:
The proof was positive-as positive
as the proof against the barber.
There was a barber who was accused
of secret inebriety. but his old patrons
refused to credit such a charge.
"A stanch old patron went to the man
to be shaved one morning The barber
in silence began to lather him. and then
suddenly seized him by the nose.
'Lathering away. the barber Sripped
the nose so firmly that its owner
grunted in pain:
Here. let go my nose
But the barber, still holding on
tight. said. as he lathered steadily on:
Can't, If i did, I'd fall down."
