FRoCKs OF ONE MATERIAL
Tremendous Vogue of the Cape Has
Called Them Into Being, and They
Are Welcomed.

The very triumphant cape, which Is
being issued in various designs, brings
with it new tribe of dresses, suitable
as a background. A salient feature
of the dress in one of it's fresh mani
festations Is the cross-over drapery
that adorns the corsage, recalling the
bands of the old golf cape, upon which
pattern the new design has been
grated. A brides going-away dress
displays the idea
Carried out in crow-blue crepe, with
fine waved lines of gold upon it. the
dress has fichu of gold lace which
matches the lining of the cape, and as
the cape is made Of crepe to agree
with the dress, the patchy effect OF
antagonistic materials is avoided.
In another case the one-material
frock is seen again, and in this In
stance, as well as in the other, the
corsage is provided with mosseline
chemisette, which gives the gown a
frightening touch. If it were without
this patch of snowy Wilderness the
taffeta bodice would look heavy, and
we should regret the ethereal and
fairy-like f1imsiness of the accustomed
chiffon and net corsage. And, more
over, doubts would assail US as to the

FOOTWEAR MUST BE DAINTY
In This Day Of the Dance Extreme At
tention to That Requisite Is
Necessary.

Every other day something new and
fetching appears in the way of dane
ing footwear-and of course, nova
days, dancing footwear is worn in the
street, or anywhere one happens to go
of an afternoon or evening; for one
must be always ready to try a maxixe
or hesitation step when somebody has
a new one to exploit.
Buttoned footwear is the approved
sort for all formal wear and this
dainty pump suggests the button idea,
though the pump is really slipped on
like slipper and has no special fas-
tening over the instep. A new idea is
shown in the tongue Of patent leather
matching the pointed toe, while the
slashed strap of suede which crosses
toe and tongue matches the back and
heel portions of the pump. This model
shows the moderately high, curved
heel and the very long, thin toe fash
ionable at the moment.

Air Brakes for AeropIanss.
cro BE coNTINUED.)

A highly ingenious device Is about
to be embodied in new British aero
plane now nearing completion. A diff
ficult problem, which has always con-
fronted the aeroplane designers, has
been that of enabling machines to
land at a reasonably slow speed and
yet fly as fast as possible. The neces.
sity of this provision may be gagged
from the fact that the modern aero
plane, with its full load, weighs the
better part of ton, and that the
usual flying speeds range from sixty
to eighty miles an hour. Accordingly,
Mr.. A. v. Roe, the well-known de-
signer, has adopted the expedient Of
providing his latest biplane with what
he termed "air brakes" These con-
slst of flaps hinged to the rear of the
planes, capable of being turned at
right angles to the direction of flight.
with the object of enabling the pilot
to reduce his speed materially pre-
paratory to alighting.

The Hello of MademolselIe.

language was French, and, for what

familiar. Ny mind was blank of any

The struggle must have been ply

agony brought me wide awake, my
eyes open, staring about, yet scarcely
realizing where dream and reality met.

limbs, dragging the two dead Indians
aside. / felt cramped, lifeless below
