War ShOrtens
French Dresses

Paris, Sept 27-(By mail)-War
restrictions invariably arouse protests,
but the one limiting wooden material
for women s dresses to four and half
metres (about five yards) has been
accepted without a murmur---even with
alacrity. This measure was readily ac-
cepted by the dressmakers syndicate
when the government pointed out its
advisibility.
The tendency of fashions had been
towards ever ampler proportions of
skirts. Since the war skirts under
went shortening process. The ques-
tion was whether the fashion of ample
skirts should continue and the quality
of the material deteriorate, or whether
a radical change of style be introduced.
The dressmakers' syndicate preferred
the latter alternative, explaining to
their clients that it is essential for the
prestige of French fashion that no con-
cession be made to the quality of ma
terial for tailormade clothes in order
to preserve the impeccable line which
is so essential.
One of the chief considerations, so
the leading Paris tailors declare, is
American custom, which would fall off
If it were found that Paris clothes were
of inferior material.
The restriction only applies to ma
terials containing wool so that for
evening gowns and indoor dresses, OF
non-woolen material, those who prefer
flowing lines and full skirts will be
able to indulge their fancy as before
AS striking contrast to the severe
and simple tailor-made, which will pre-
vail in outdoor places, win be the ex-
etic toilettes which several of the big
firms are about to launch for evening
wear, some of which are direct copies
of Chinese models.

Cut Your Store Bill
Down One HaIf

Tens of thousands of farmers as well as
town and city folks cut down their store
bills one-half last year and saved money
in spite of generally short crops and re-
duced wages.
Absolutely millions of dollars were
saved and countless familiesAived better
than ever before in the face of the cotton
crisis and general business depression.
How were these burdensome store bills
cut down? By the real money-saving
power of good home gardens, rightly
planted and kept planted and tended
through the season.
