The carefully made and beautiful
girdle shown at the RICH: is appropri-
ately called the American Beauty"
A soft, wide ribbon in rose shades is
chosen for this, which is designed for
afternoon or evening gowns The rib
bon is laid in four plaits and tackled to
stays. The overlapping emo Of the
girdle Is finished with a shallow loop.
Just at its base two very realistic
roses (made of ribbon are posed with
bit of millinery rose foliage and
stems, are sewed to the ribbon and
the stay which finished the end.
Hooks and eyes provide a means Of fas-

last particularly effective. Then
there is a big family of bordered

Rev. Andreas Wangberg, a Norwe
gian missionary, who has spent much
time among the Laps OF Norway, is
on visit to the United States. or
his lprotegees he gives the follow
ing account: "A more uncleanly peo-
pie than the Laplanders cannot be
imagined. Leprosy is rife among
them. Along the coast many of the
houses are of timber, but one room
and mud huts. in which whole fami-
lies and all the animals live together
are the rule. tuberculosis also is
common among them. My mission
airy work is to teach them how to
live better as well as to spread the
word Of God Whisky, beer and
brandy, brought in by Russian, Ger
man and Scandinavian traders, are
the curse of the Laplanders. These
traders are vicious lot. They keep
careful track of the catches of fish
and when a village makes an unusual
ly large haul they swarm to the place
with their liquor, which they sell to
the natives while they are flush with
money. Many, of the towns prohibit
the sale of liquors to the natives. and
more are doing this each year"

TT there are girdle or sashless
i dresses designed for the new sea-
son, they seem to be keeping out of
sight. Everything has a sash which
does not define the waist line, but
wanders above and below and around
or diagonally across and terminates
wherever 1t sees fit, sometimes at the
bust, sometimes under the shoulders,
again half way to the knees, and rea-
sonably often somewhere near the
waist line
Nearly all the girdles are Of the new
and beautiful ribbons. Some of them
are of silk wrapped about the figure
and extending from below the bust to
the swell of the hips. To sum up thu
matter, you may wear a sash or
girdle of any sort of ribbon you choose
and posed to suit yourself
Four fashionable designs are shown
here, The first is called the ORES
den," and is made OF MORE ribbon in
all colors, with border and stripes in
Dresden patterns woven in. 1t con-
sists of girdle, a short, standing loop
and long falling loop with one end
forming the sash. At the heart of
this two-looped bow is buckle made
Of parrow velvet wound over founda-
ton of buckram. The velvet is in q
dark shad, Of the same color as ap-
pears in the body of the ribbon.
This is one of the most popular
of all the many sashes now in vogue.
1t requires about three yards of rib
bon, and is supported by narrow stays
when fitted to the waist.
The girdle without ends pictured
next is called the "Alsatian,' taking
its name from the bow Of two loops,
and equal In length, which furnishes
it. 1t is made of soft, mersa line rib
bon, The heart of the bow is held in
place by two shirrings over soft cord.
A yard and a quarter will make this
girdle for waist of average size,
say "a inches. 1t is an easy matter to
calculate the length required, since 1t
takes a trifie more than half yard
to make the two loops. Adding to this
the waist measure with little allow
>ance for making and fastening above
or below the waist line, the length re-
quired is ascertained.
The wide and soft sash pictured next
with its suggestion of butterfly bow,
is called the "Geisha." Wide ribbons
are chosen for this, and an ample al.
lowance for encircling the waist, since
II is worn rather high.
The ends are trimmed diagonally,
and hemmed. The hem is finished with
hem-stitching or bordered with vel
vetribbon in the same color as the
sash. This sash will require three
yards and perhaps little more. 1t de-
ponds upon the length OF the ends.
The shorter one, as a rule, is half
yard long. The character of the de-
sign admits OF shorter ends, but hard
ly OF longer ones.

any larger to accommodate a small
coin purse. handkerchief or two and

outside. 1t is covered by a double
flap of silk. the inner flap carrying a
