AMERICAN FASHIONS.
BY LILLIAN E. YOUNG.

Cnquestionably a great part of the
charm of corduroy may be attributed
to its artistic career, for could ever
artistic genius have struggled through
the Quarter Latin in anything but
corduroy? According to long estab-
lished custom, it seems that it could

Corduroy always held a place of its
own among velvets, for it possesses

it as especially durable for knock

The sleeves are long. and finished
with fur cuffs. A military fur collar

two straps of tarnished silver braid
trim either side of the blouse running
horizontally above the belt, leaving a
six-inch space between the pointed
ends in front and in back.
Three rows of the same braid are
similarly applied over the hips.

corduroy comes in will be very smart

The sketch shows one of the most
fashionable expressions of it, made by

at the back; not really correct, as you
see. but merely playing with a popular

Special Correspondence of The Star.
NEW YORK, December 9.-The
youngsters of the day do not escape the
newest fashions arranged for their
elders. The tunic, the long sleeves. the
short and the long coat are reflected
in miniature.
Whatever one sees ultra fashionable
in grown-up apparel one will sooner or
later see them in tiny clothes. The time
has evidently passed (as much as a
fashion can pass) for children to be
dressed with the utmost simplicity of
line and treatment. Here and there one
sees a fashion that makes one fear for
the return of the medieval years. when
children faithfully copied the clothes
of their grandmothers, when pointed
bodices boned to stay down and i'm
mensely full skirts. crinolined out from
the figure, were the usual fashions
More Ornate Here.
These painful years were followed
by another hideous style in juvenile
dressing and later-far later-came in

de Monvel, the elder. who was far more

correctly dressed. Now, since it is chic
to be English, French children OF the
fashionable set are dressed in a sensi-
bic way.
Yet there is a tendency over here to
get away from the straight line, the
lar wasted belt, the simple decoi-
and drift into more ornate

Fashions Echo War.
This season, because of the dramatic
and heroic actions of the Scottish
troops among the allies, their uniforms,
along with those of the tragic and
splendid Belgians, are being incorpo-
rated into the fashions. Children have
taken up the Scotch caps, and wom-
en- have taken up the Killed skirt, the
short Jacket. the long high CATERS to
simulate, in a way, the tight stockings
of the Scots.

and see THE Quaker GIRL" and, once
in the theater, they were captiyated
TO degree that bordered on ecstatic
enthusiasm.
