If we leave out the consideration Of
cotton fabrics, eliminating especially
those in novelty weaves. We shall have
to concede the honors Of the season
to taffeta as the favorite fabric OF
fashion. The taffeta one-piece dress,
the taffeta suit and the taffeta coatee
worn with lingerie gowns), appear
and reappear everywhere, and no one
grows tired Of seeing them. Now the
earliest models for fall have been
launched, made of cloth and taffeta
combined, so that we may depend up
on a continuance Of favor for this at
tractive fabric. The new suits and
frocks are in one color, the silk and
wool exactly matched in shade.
The suit shown in the picture lays
no claim to novelty in design but is
distinguished by being strictly in the
mode, by it's attractiveness and USE
fulness. For the three TERED skirt
may part company with the coatee
for afternoon wear and join fortunes
with a blouse of chiffon or lace or fine
lingerie. 1t is made with a high waist
line. and skirts like 1t are among the
most popular of the ready-to-wear
skirts shown by dry goods stores.
This skirt is made of knife-plaited
taffeta fiounces over a short under
skirt Of light weight %percaline. To
make them fare a little the edges of
the f1ounces are finished with a corded
hem. That is, a small cable cord is
run in a hem a quarter of an inch
wide. Or they may be bound with a

vide for a diminutive powder box
with a tiny powder puff in it, a small
comb, a little fiat but f icient clothes
brush, and a fiat bottle for perfume,

These exactly fit. The little mirror is
usually attached by a bit Of ribbon
to the frame of the bag, and some
times the coin purse is anchored by a
slender chain. Besides all the built-in
fixtures these bags accommodate a
fountain pen, a small pencil and a lit
tie pair of scissors. On the outside is
a flat pocket for the handkerchief and
a small fiat compartment between the
owe and the inner pocket makes a
place for letters, memos or cards. In

SEEK MORE LIBERTY
Egyptian Women Take Steps
Toward Emancipation.
Movement Seems to Presage a Great
Step Toward the Modernization
Of the Country, if It Can
Be Effected.

A great movement is on foot in
Egypt for the emancipation of woman.
Notwithstanding the roar Of battle
within measurable distance of the cap
ital, the movement is steadily taking
shape. Without doubt it will bring
about a great, radical change in that
time-bound land and effect a great
step towards the modernization OF
the country.
A stumbling block exists at the mo
ment in the religious aspect of the
case. as a Moslem will never abate
one jot OF little of his faith. But the
difficulty is not insuperable. The con
sentative hold that there Is nothing
in the Koran which shames a woman
to display her features. 1t rests with
the rector of Ell Azher and the grand
multi, the highest opponents Of Mos
lem law, to settle this difference, If
they can be persuaded to do so.
As a matter Of fact, many Of the
Egyptian princesses and other ladies'
Of high degree at Cairo and elsewhere
have SO far bent to modern customs
as to wear wells of a light muslin fab
ric of the finest texture, which rather
lends to their attractiveness, and
have discarded the old "bourkah," or
heavy veil, worn in many parts Of the
country. On the other hand, the
peasant woman goes about with an
uncovered face all the time.
The trend Of public opinion, how.
ever, is progressive. The old "bour.
kah" is doomed. With the education
and enlightenment the Egyptian wom-
an is now enjoying she has realized
that She is no longer a slave to her
husband n father. Thus it is safe
to assume that the muslin or silk veil
which is at present worn will in its
turn disappear and the native Egyp-
tian Of high degree will soon
be going about the streets with an
open face, as her European and Amer
lean sisters do.
Mere man" will not have a say in
the new departure, any more than he
had in the replacement Of the thick
veil by the present fimsy veil. The
present upward trend of oma from
eastern slavery will bring her that
emancipation she is entitled to, relig-
ious opposition Notwithstanding.
Many of the older members Of the
community are raising the cry that
the new departure will tend to great
er immortality, but this is refuted by
pointing to the Coptic Catholics, who
are as well able to take care Of them
selves as are any other women in the
country.
The one great point of agreement is
that all favor the higher education Of
women, and agree that woman is
meant to be mans helpmeet and not
his slave. The Egyptian newspapers
are warmly discussing the pros and
cons of the movement, in which many
women are taking part. Every sympa-
thizer has the right to be gratified at
the present outlook of the discussion.
as it augurs well for the future of the
Moslem woman.
