RUSSIANS SUCCESSFUL EVERYWHERE IN POLAND EXCEPT At
ONE POINT ON THE BzURA RIVER

Petrograd, Jan. s.-The Russians
are again attacking Mlawa, which has
changed hands five times since the
war began. Fighting east and west
from Mlawa eighteen miles has re-
suited in heavy losses TO both sides,
but the Russians are advancing stead
lily.
In the trenches extending from the
Vistula westward through Kazunpol-
ski, Wistliti and Moskcoknow, the
Russians are repelling the Germans
who crossed the Bzura river.
There has been a slight retirement
of the Russian forces east of the
Bzura, permitting the Germans to
cross the river, due to the heavy ar
tillery fire of the enemy. The Rus
slams retired to their second line Of
trenches out of range of the German
artillery, which can't be brought
across the Bzura river.

NEW BLOUSCS AND SKIRTS
Chiffon, Lace and Net Retain Popu-
larity for the Finer Garments
Sleeves Are to Be Long.

Chiffon. lace and net remain the ia
vored fabrics for fine blouses. while
crepe de chine is the exquisite mate
rial for shirts for ordinary wear. To
90 with the tailored suit there are at
tractive models whose plainness is re-
lieved by touches of hemstitching and
hand embroidery done in self-tones.
The work is scattered down the front
and on the shoulder.
The cape blouse introduced early
last season did not meet with the sue
cess anticipated for it. Nevertheless.
from it has been evolved type of
waist that shows the superstructure
OF lace sagging very much at the back
above the waist line and giving the
suggestion of the page cape, from
which it undoubtedly has been origi-
mated.
Almost without exception the sleeves
are long. and there Is good reason to
believe that the incoming modes will
maintain such effects. The length
however. does not mean discomfort.
because the sleeves are cut with in.
creased width from elbow to wrist.
While many of the blouses exploit
the setin sleeve, there are worthy ex.
amples of the raglan and kimono
type in the new schedule. As matter
OF fact. the preference appears to be
for the raglan style.

ON ONE SUIT A YEAR
HOW A GIRL MAY DRESS ECO
NOMlCAlLY AND WELL.
Wisdom in Selecting Materials for
Costumes Is the Main Pontiac
cessories Also a Matter Of
Importance.

A girl living at home with parents in
modest circumstances should get along
with one suit year, writes Mrs. Eliz-
abeth Lee in the Philadelphia Ledg-
er. One year she will buy winter
suit. the next year one for spring and
fall. Unless the suit has to be made
to order. it should be got for about
thirty dollars. She should have at
least one evening dress each winter
for formal occasions, with one or two
others made over from last year. One
toilet may be pretty blouse worn
with plain skirt of black satin. This
will answer for matinee. teas or in
formal evening wear.
Twenty dollars will buy pretty
dancing frock. because it should be
very simple only. Then one can make
changes by adding sash or flower
corsage. perhaps. Ten or fifteen dol
lars will probably be expended in ma
terials for making over the other
dresses and paying the dressmaker for
couple of days work.
Little house dresses girl can make
herself. Four yards of a woolen plaid
will make morning dress. Three
dollars and fifty cents will pay for it.
Then she will want separate skirt,
SO. and couple of blouses at $1.50 or
so each.
Afternoon dresses of ratine, cotton
voile or challie trimmed with a little
black satin cost very little. Fifty
cents yard is a fair price. A long
wrap-about $25-suitable for after
noon and evening wear. is a necessity.
and possibly raincoat Hats cost
just what one cares to pay for them;
$40 is ample for the best one and IS
for the other. Four year Is none too
many.
In addition to this list girl needs
for warm weather two or three cotton
frocks. n best dress Of simple silk or
silk-and-wool. costing SIS to $50; a
linen skirt and three shirt waists.
II she will watch the lingerie sales,
a girl can keep herself neat on $40 a
year Stockings can cost what one
pleases. according to the care given
them. Fifteen dollars a year should
keep one well shod.
For accessories a girl should be al
lowed as much as a parent can afford
for such things. because accidents will
happen no matter how careful one
may be.
A new pair OF gloves may split. for
instance. and so become worthless, or
the rain may spoil a hat or any deli
cate accessory.
