Fashion Paragraphs.

The muff1er follows us south. To be
sure. for southern travellers 1t is made
OF silk, usually. and has not the
warmth and bulkiness which make IT
SO comfortable for the skater. But 1t
is muller. just the same. capable OF
al, the ordinary muff1er's possibilities.
One of the noticeable things about
the spring frocks.t have been made
for those going south is the combina-
ton of colors and fabrics. Plaids are
used in some Of the new frocks, COM
bined with plain materials: Satin and
chiffon are often stIikingly used to-
gether Some of the new skirts have
fullness achieved by means of applied
box pleats, and these are usually Of
contrasting color and fabric
That the cape is to be an important
by the frocks that have appeared for
the southern trade.
Buttons are one of the best trimming
features of the new clothes.
Yellow is still one of the accepted
colors for blouses. After the p-eva-
lence of lingerie blouses several years
ago, white seemed the only possible
color for separate blouse. Then fiesh

and yellow. Yellow is one of the best
colors now next to pink.
Cotton; wolfe is one of the best thin
fabrics that is shown now. 1t Is so
durable, so soft and becoming, so easily
kept free from wrinkles, that we well
come its fashion.
Jersey cloth, OF course. which Is to
be fashionable spring fabric, appears
in the wardrobes Of many southern
travellers. At first thought Jersey cloth
seems difficult fabric to use, because
Of it's lack of body and softness. Really,
it is just these qualities which make
its charm, and II can be used In much
the same way as crepe de chine,

The Wisdom of Alteration:

1t is difficult to put ones self in an
attitude of approval toward alteration.
Obstinacy along this line may be
spelled extravaganza. There are thou
sands of homes where the process of
altering gowns is regarded as the fun
damental way of saving money. To in
duce women to think otherwise would
be like making converts to new
creed. Deep-rooted in most women's
hearts is the belief that as long as the
material holds good the style can be
made to serve the hour.
Nothing Is more fallacious. The
styles the thing. If one can obtain it
at the cost of little more money and
the saving of a lot of vitality by buying
a new gown in a material of less quail
ity and endurance than the old one,
one should do it.
Yet there are excellent ways of alter
ing old evenings coats that appeal to
the judgment and do not distress the
purse. After all. an evening coat is
not part of an indoor costume, except
in the hands OF the very rich. who are
able to display 1t as an effective back
ground. 1t always can be left In the
dressing room. which is comforting
women use a variety of brilliant
wraps, as the French do, in pastures
before the public.
The main thing to do in altering an
evening coat is to give it width at the
hem. This may not be protective, but
1t is essential over the modern frocks
To offset this disadvantage it should be
widely Tapped in front. 1t is better to
have long sleeves. and, il these are not
in the original coat. they can be added
in any harmonious material.
II one does not wish to wear furs in
the evening the new cape collars give
admirable warmth, and they, too. can
be easily adjusted from other material
Velvet or brocade. edged with fur. can
be used with artistic result on any
wrap of the moment
1t might be good advice to those who
need a fashionable evening covering.
to say that they buy 1t now. when all
such garments are greatly reduced.
The sketch shows an admirable model
that will lead all the new spring styles,
and 1t may serve as a guide to a wom-
an who 10 shopping for a wrap

RELIANCE ONLY ON MEMORY
zulus, Having No Written Language,
Have Been Compelled to Cultivate
That Quality.

II Is said that the memory In savage
or uncultivated peoples is often trained
to degree very surprising to those
civilized men and women who have
grown used to depending upon the
written much more than on the re-
membercd word. The transmission OF
whole epics, like the "lliad," by word
of mouth no longer seems so incred-
ible when one reads of the feats of
memory of which present-day Zulus
are capable.
These people have no writing, and
and record events by memory alone.
This they can do because their mental
Impressions are made especially dis
tinct by reason OF their acquired or
inherited habit of giving undivided at
tention to the subject in hand
Communication between the Brit
iSh authorities and the Zulu kings are
almost invariably conducted by means
Of oral messages carried by natives.
A certain ultimatum addressed by the
British to Cetywayo was conveyed to
him, not upon paper but in the brain
cells of the messengers whom he had
sent 80 miles to receive 1t from the
British commissioners.
Although the document contained
some 1000 words, and was accompa-
MED by some comment on the state OF
things it was desired to remedy, the
whole was repeated TO Cetywayo
with perfect accuracy.
