of wind and weather. needs not to be
recommended. 1t speaks for itself and
it's talking points are unanswerable.
AS a rule these caps are made OF
mercerized poplin or Palm Beach
cloth, although pongee, taffeta and
some other fabrics are occasionally
used Mercerized poplin and Palm
Beach cloth are cotton materials in
weaves so attractive that they are
often combined with silk and lose
nothing by this close association with
it. Both these materials are washable
and strong.
Machine stitching and narrow silk
braid are relied upon to furnish the
decorative features in these useful
caps. Sometimes they are used to-
gether. The brims and crowns are
often in contrasting colors, or the
brims are faced with color different
from that in the body Of the cap. Fa-
vorite combinations are those made
of pongee-colored cloth with bright
green, blue, black or red introduced in
the brim facings.

New Petticoats,

The phases Of the new petticoat are
many. We have princess slips OF
silk, batiste, crepe de chine, held
over the shoulders with straps OF
ribbon and deliberately trimmed
about the hem with wide flounces OF
lace, plated organdie, chiffon or net,
caught here and there with bouquets
of delicately tinted French flowers.
They measure from four to six yards
about the hem, and sometimes little
1S45 pantalettes, made of materials to
match the petticoat, are worn beneath.

No one can tell when the bride of
today will introduce the mode Of to-
day in some detail of her wedding
gown, be it ever so conventional in
style. For since her choice. of fabrics
may lie anywhere from tulle to bro
cade, falling upon the lightest or the
heaviest or any of the gradaticns be-
tween, she has as wide choice in
design. This follows because she must
adapt style to the fabric, and there
fore we have wedding gowns and
wedding gowns, no two alike and all
interesting
But brides are apparently Of one
mind as to the treatment Of the bodice.
Nearly all of them choose the conven-
tional long sleeve and the unconven-
tional V-shaped neck, more or less
low.
AS to skirts, they may be short and
wide, in thin materials, and unframed
A girlish French model Of lace and
chiffon was made even a little shorter
than ankle length, with wide panel OF
lace down the front, broadening to-
ward the bottom. The skirt f1ared de
cidedly. Having departed in an op
posite direction from the conventional
mode thus far, the designer appears
to have repented. The very long
sleeves Of chiffon and very high necl
in the lace bodice made humble ant

| frivolity of the skirt.

The veil worn with this gown was
of lace-bordered net, ample as to full

Nothing could be much simpler In

brides. 1t was made of white and sill

UP AND DOWN BROADWAY--By Allen Griffin Johnson

Der, we shall be seeking, not life, but merely cheap way of living.
 There is an even yet cheaper way there is the municipal lodging house and the new factory for the unemployed, where you may procure your food by working as hard and long as your strength will permit. But you must work, if you would live thus, for New York will not tolerate idlness-unless one Is wealthy-and it has no hesitancy in saying officially that this or that man died here of starvation--which is an off cial cause of death that no other city in the world will give.
 But suppose you would say, Let us not seek the cheapest living, but merely a fair living as cheap as 1t can be had in another. smaller city" Very well-a little more for your room and bed, and you may be reasonably certain to be the only occupant thereof, and a little more for your dinner, with just a bit of a tip to the waiter, and you will find your self in an atmosphere bordering upon bohemianism, with very fair meal spread before you, accompanied by what New Workers are pleased to call "a pint of red ink" as beverage.
 Wearing apparel Is unquestionably cheaper here than have found 1t in any other city known to me. and as for amusements. you may occupy a comfor- taDle seat in the top balcony of some of our DIE movie houses. enjoy the privi- iege of smoking and see nearly three tours of thrills accompanied by really good orchestral renditions-for cents.

It has become absolutely the fashion here to say, '.I am from the south," and there are many people making that claim who never journeyed farther In that di- rection than Battery park.
 In re the preceding paragraph, there is plenty of proof procurable. The Southern society here, for instance. has, be- lieve. very close to majority of mem bers who would not know cotton field from potato patch. and furtherp,ore they will never go far enough south to test the truth of this assertion.
 For at least one whole day after the subway accident the subterranean railway did almost no business at all.
 The courageous cosmopolite was just plain scared and the 'L' and surface lines and auto busses believed that pros- perity had fallen upon them.
 To mako insecurity doubly insecure, the subway officials assure us that a similar accident may occur again at any time. But the New Yorker has way of look ing forward instead of back, and now he has apparently forgotten the accident. Coming uptown on the same old Broad way sub last evening. the crowd was so dense that, having managed to reach a strap. in some marvellous manner, was unable to get my arm down again for the next two miles. Yet the trains are less than two minutes apart and each one, at the rush hour, carries 10 or 12 coaches.
 However, in spite of the accident and the admitted possibility of another, the of- ficials claim that the percentage of risk to an individual crossing Broadway or Fifth avenue at a busy hour is far greater than that run in riding the entire length of the tunnels in any direction.
