Ii YOU have considered blouses for
the coming spring you already know
that feminine allegiance Is divided be-
tween the skirted blouse and our older
friend that merely reaches To the waist
lire. The skrted blouse, appearing
first with II short peplum, has met
with an enthusiastic welcome, and
now we have the Russian blouse, In
muny developments, the chemise blouse,
and many warehouses;, all covering
half the length of the figure. But the
practical blOuse-the shirtwaist of 9th
or days (moditcd for the house)-
goes screnely on its way, which leads
it into every wardrobe.
Blouses of today, If well made, are
higher priced than they We're. mex
penslve ones are attractiyely designed
hut poorly made. and the woman of
refined taste must either reconcile her
self to paying higher prices or make
her blOuScs at home; she cannot
reconcile herself to the poor work on
the cheaper ready-made articles.
Two new models are shown in the
picture. one Is Oh SclloW pTSuhulc,
finished at the edges with black in
machine-made buttonhOle stitching. As
In the majority of new models, the
back and front are set on TO straight
shOulderpieces. There are two small
pockets 10 relieve the plainness of the
otherwise unadOrned fronts.

Interesting Skirts,

In view of the American woman's
inyariable objection to drapery in her
suits, and in Difference to the desire
for something extremely simple and
in one piece, the tailored skirt for
spring, while having broken lines, will
express drapery in very limited de-
gree.
Thus, instead of being gored and
scanned, SO us to assume the barrel
shape, the new "tonneau' skirts of
tailored type are often cut in two cir
cular portions; an upper part, extend
ing from the hip to the knee, and n
lower part, from hem to knee, these
circular pieces being Joined in II seam
Mt their widest spread. The result is
very interesting new skirt, narrow
ut waist and hem and wide mt the
knee Cor point of joining), and, there
fore, of barrel type. There will be II
difference of mt least yard in the
width of this type of skirt through the
center and ut hem and waist

Now is the day Of the round
and not too slender figure. Plump
ness Is pleasing arrayed i'm II one
piece frock, hanging in straight
lines. There has been an infini-
tude of designs. and here Is one of
them which might be of serge or satin
or soft wool material, but the chances
are that 1t is of wool Jersey. The
skirt has fiat flare ut the back and
front, and ut the sides Is laid In groups
of narrow fiat plaits separated by
wider ones. This model fastens at
one side on the shoulder and under
arm seam. 1t Is finished with fiat
girdle of the material, having the ends
embroidered and ornamented with
pendant balls covered with small
beads.
All sorts of wide, soft girdles are
made for these One-picce frocks, and
they are often the most interesting fea-
ture I'm them. Magnificent oriental tus-
sells and handsome silk cords on wide
girdles of velvet, lined with silk lift
even u plain gown into the realm of
splendid things. BY means of these
girdles. and of separate collar and
cuff sets, one may ring many changes
on plain one-piece frock Of wool or
satin.
The latest arrival among fads Is a
matched set consisting of wide silk
girdle, hat and bag, or instead Of the
bag u parasol Is brought into the
scheme. Since everything Is embrol

FOR EVENING wear
AGAIN AccoRDIoN.PLAlTED LACE
DRESSES ARE IN VOGUE.
Worn With Satin Coats or Long,
Straight Tunics-Description Of
Simple Couture in Severely
Classic style.

Accordion-plaited lace dresses are
again very fashionable for evening
wear and these are almost always ac-
companied by trained satin coats or by
long straight TUNES composed of print
ed or embroidered chiffon, writes u
Paris correspondent.
A Cheruit dress was composed of
midnight blue chiffon and it was en-
riched with wide bands of superb en-
broidery worked in silver threads and
blue and black silk. Heavy fringes held
these embroidered bands in place and
ut the waist there was loose, quite
narrow, sash which was also covered
with embroidery.
This sash was knotted low down in
front, in Fatima style. The corsage of
this model was very quaint and orig
inal. OF sleeves there were none and
the corsage was almost high back and
front while it fell off the shoulders.
Redfcrn is having n great success
with shaped centuries. These centuries
mold the hips closely, but do not In
any way compress the waist. Redfern
has always been an admirer of Greek
draperies and he is of opinion that the
women of today. especially American
women, are quite as beautifully formed,
and as graceful of movement, as were
the beautiful creatures whose statues
grace our museums.
Apropos of classic styles must draw
your attention to the simple couture
which illustrates this article. This is
the way hair will be dressed "the day
after tomorrow" Is 1t not purely
| classic?
The very lightly waved hair is simply
drawn back from the forehead, light
kiss curls appearing above the ears,
then ut the back It is twisted into a
loose chignon and semicircular comb
Is added.

comb which was made Of green horn

Danger Age for Women.

When woman stands on the thresh-
old of thirty-five, she stands on the
edge of the preciplce of falling mus
cles, grazing hair and overweight. Sag
ging muscles more than anything else,
even more than wrinkles, cast the
shadow of advancing age. Therefore,
If you see the muscles of the cheeks
beginning to droop as If too weary to
hold themselves firm, assist them by
fastening q tight muslin band about
the chin and pin or clasp it Mt the
crown of the head. Loose, baggy skin,
usually follows in the wake of these
ugly dropping muscles, and to treat
that, tilt the chin upwards and press
smooth piece of ice firmly against 1t
as long as You can bear the cold.

Spring Fashions Undoubtedly viii Call

There has been something of lull
in neckweur lately because Of the
vogue for cOllarless blOuses, probably,

since Chinese tassels of all sorts are
available and fashionable, another

of such fasteners.

COWS ARE HIGH
Increase in Milk Prices Causes
Advance In Beef on HoOf

The increase in the price of milk has
caused similar increase in the price of
COWS. To-day a COW is literally worth it's
weight in gold. A good COW will easily
bring 500 to 1925, according to one au-
| thority who has been in the COW business
for good many years. There are some
COWS selling for less than that price, but
they probably are not worth any more
than the asking price. There is demand
for cows among local people who have
tried to go back to the o'd-fashioned
method of Creeping a cow in the barn"
for they find that the prices are up in the
pictures. However, some are still look
ing.
Since the dealers boosted milk prices
there has been large sale of condensed
and evaporated milk and families who
never before have tried preserved milk
are experimenting with it and like the
product, especially for their coffee. Some
are finding that condensed milk takes the
place of cream admirably in the coffee in
the morning. In addition they are not
bothered with sour milk which has been
a prevailing complaint among local con-
sumers.
So far the sale of grain is very small
which would indicate that farmers are
not yet feeding grain to their stock, al
though they may be cutting corn and
other green stuff for them.
