Preachings concerning clothes are

viii sometimes take; argument they
viii rarely heed; praise they will 40

many sins in clothes is like throwing

What others do becomes such 4
strong rule III dress that all previously
formulated rules and regulations con
corning clothes are OF no avail. Pr ID
ably there was a time, or several
times, coming at irregular intervals,
when women actually kept to the con-
yentiOns laid Down for feminine APP
parel. They retained satin and velvet,
chiffon and embroidery for occasions
of gayety or ceremony, and they re-
garded the sterner stuffs made of
wOrSted and wooden threads as suit
able for the rough activities of every
day life.
There were whole generations of
women who divided their clothes into
two neat piles of sheep and goats, US
ing the latter for the sterner duties of
life and keeping the former for their
pleasure hours. These times did rot
last for more than half generation,
il that. but they appeared often enough
in the scheme of things to keep women
sanely balanced as TO the relation be-
tween costumery and opportunity.
There has always run a thread of
sanity and wisdom through certain
classes of women, regarding the di-
vision of their clothes, and although
we of the hour may laugh at the idea
of ones Sunday BEST" there may
have been far more wisdom I'm that
kind of clothes arrangement than we
are showing today. However, there
is such variety of reasons why the
women of the moment should not act

yesterday that it is foolish to sigh

an was not compelled, through social

Enlisted Dog of u. S. Navy

Long Swim to Rejoin Colors

Official dispatches have cleared up
for all time the fate of Bum, the only
dog ever regularly enlisted in the
United States navy.
They told Of the heroic death of the
great Newfoundland, known throughout
the world where naval men meet, and
for II years registered as member of
the crew of the United States steam
ship San Francisco, flagship of the
mine-laying division of the United
States navy.
The story of the dogs death prom

According to the dispatches, Bum en-

came for the San Francisco to sail at

SKIRT AND CATERS IN ONE
Designer for French Dressmaker
Springs Original Sensation in
New Model.

Erie, who was the designer for Paul
POiret, has invented skirt and high
CATERS cut In one piece. The manu-
facturers are trying to introduce this
model. POiret himself could not have
designed q more original sensation.
The idea was suggested 10 Erie by the
strong return of the mannish costumes
of 1880, which the staging of LangdOn
MitchelPs new play, Major Penden-
MIS-" with John Drew in the title role,
has brought so brilliantly before New
York audiences. These have been
copied for women, with narrow skirt
substituted for the trousers which
spread over the instep and have a
strap underneath.
1t may be that this new skirt by
Erie will be adopted by the smart set
for riding. 1t is not at all probable
that 1t will be adopted for walking,
but it is highly suggestive of a strong,
new influence that is at work In fash
ions.
Women have not advanced far
enough to wear the peg-tOp trousers of
1880, but the insistence upon the skirt
that is slightly full from waist to knees
and tight from there to ankles, surely
found Its source in the mems fashions
of the early nineteenth century

HATS ARE WORN STRAIGHT
No Slant, No Rakish Angle Is Permit

Oictators.

Wear your hat straight this season.
No slant, no rakish angle, no attempt

line low on the brow from temple 10

This is the basis of the new millinery
and If you are not we'll aware of il
and do not start the whole business
OF posing and buying a hat on this firm
foundation, then you might as well
wear bonnets of mid-VictOrlan days
and dismiss the entire question of
fashion Possibly the idea OF dismissal
would suit you better than any other,
but, honestly, you might regard II
seriously for an hour or u day and the

Why Many Women Will Not Wed

Some women are restrained from
marrying because of the load which
they are carrying on their shoulders,
fearing that a husband would not care

aged parents or helpless younger broth

ded, martyrs TO duty.
Vast numbers of women refuse good
offers of marriage, for reasons that are

Absurd would be n better word for il.
One pretty girl told me in all serious
ness that she had refused an exemplary
young man because she feared her at
