is especially well adapted to the blouse
of the present moment, which is not
so full and blousing as it was few
months ago. 1t is more like the fitted
basques that are shown on some of
the new gowns-for it outlines the
figure. Filmy chiffon and net and lace
are far better adapted to the blousing
styles that are leaving us than to the
trimmer, tighter styles that seem to
be coming to us. But taffeta is an
ideal fabric for this newer type of
blouse and 1t is now being used widely,

STYLE OF MUCH VALUE

Its Acquisition Must Be Deter

Sacrifice.

Style has an appreciable intrinsic
value all its own. 1t is rather elu-

slons, and they are not infreQuent,
when 1t will achieve victories as
surely and In the same way as person
atty can and does. 1t is an all-embrac-
ing possession; it affects appearance,
tone and manners.
Its value today is higher than it ever
was. Few people can really afford to
do without 1t. Its influence is far
reaching, and no one can say where
the end of its effect is likely to be.
And yet, with 1t all--and it can GER
tainly be regarded as commercial
asset nowadays-compara few
people seem to trouble themselves
about acquiring It, For it can be ac-

FLOWER ON HER LEFT HIP
The Parlsienne Recently Has Made a
Smart Transfer for Her Ball
Gown Posy.

There is seemingly no abatement In
the liking for artificial flowers among
the Parisiennes. They are placed ir-
regularly on the skirt under tulle
tunics, they are used at the shoulder
singly or in the form Of straps-Pre-
met has white satin evening frock
held over the shoulders with straps of
deep yellow roses-they band the
waist, they edge the lace capes and
they rest pertly on the left hip.
That is the really new position for
the artificial flower-at the front of
the left hip. And it must be big,
conspicuous flower, too, to be truly
smart.
A pink satin evening frock, much
trimmed with silver gauze shows a
big magenta flower fastened on the
left hip on the tulle tunic.
Not yet has the boutonniere for the
street suit appeared on the left hip;
that is still worn on the left shoulder.

FASHIONS FANCIES

At the present moment the charm
of the costume depends on the little
things.
White organdie is everywhere--in
collars and blouses and girls white
dresses.
There is nothing like the dark silk
kimonos, very plainly made, for trav-
cling.
Dolly Warden bonnets are trimmed
with roses and blue ribbon streamers.
Long belted redingotes are really
here-close-fitting garments with set
in sleeves.
In Paris fur is being worn on lace
hats--and the effect is not odd, but
delightful.
Silver and gold embroidered lace
and tulle trimmed with fur and velvet
are already seen.
Although the new skirts are much
fuller the materials are clinging and
often transparent.
Light-colored taffeta dresses flounced
with lace are appropriate for garden
party wear.
The cotton crepes and seersuckers
used for children's dresses permit a
great economy in laundry work.
The vogue of garish and. eccentric
colors is about over, to Judge by the
furore for black and dark colors.
English eyelet embroidery is revived
for lingerie dresses. Usually they
have colored silk slips below.

the largest and steadiest gains, en-
dures heavy feeding for the longest
tiae finally finishes out with the
sCsetest weight, and yields the highest
percentage of prime beef.
In selecting feeders, there is per-
haps no point more important than the
hack A wide, straight, strong back,
with a well sprung rib. is essential.
The girth Of the steer should be large
that is, the distance around the body
back of the shoulder should be as large
as possible This means more room
for vital organs and insures a better
constitution than Is otherwise likely to
prevail. Associated also with a large
girth is well sprung rib, making a
wide back on which there is room for
the deposition of large quantity Of
high.priced meat There is also great
er depth of chest and greater digestive
capacity with a large girth.
The head is an excellent index to
the character of the feeder, because
there is a relationship between the
different parts OF an animals body.
The steer with wide head is usually
a good feeder, for wide head goes
with a food capacity for putting on a
large amount of flesh, Usually the
steer with a wide head will grow thick
through the body and wide across the
back. Width of muzzle is also impor-
tant because it indicates capacity for
feed consumption and for good breath
ing. The neck, although not choice
meat, is thick and short on good
steer. The shoulder should be evenly
covered, compact and wide at the top.
While width of shoulders at the top is
a mark of good feeder, steers with
extremely wide shoulders should not
be selected, for they are usually coarse.

The seaside courses are so open and
the wind so strong that the straight
ball down the middle of the alley"
(the kind we crave for here) is practi-
cally an utter stranger on those cours-
es. In fact, there would be no advan-
tage in even trying to keep the ball
straight in most cases, but really a
disadvantage, since the ball in cross
wind, for instance, would be fighting
against the wind. Instead. the wind
is made friend and Is used to advan-
tage by employing the useful hook and
slice according to the direction OF
the wind) to work with the wind-and
long ball usually results. Those hard
hitters who can play reasonable hook
or slice certainly do some really fine
smacking. They know how to start the
ball for the right place. at the proper
height, and with the proper degree Of
slice or hook impaired to 1t so that
it usually ends up in the right spot

the straight ball and simply allows for
