Hard to Convert.


The reporters kept hammering at the
fact that the woman of wisdom should
not indulge in bargains that were Of
fered in full and flaring skirts, but
great number of women insisted that
if the silhouette changed, it was easier
to take the fullness out of a skirt
than to put it in.
Even as late as the middle of Febru-
airy high-class shops were offering
skirts that measured from five to seven
did not flare; they hung Imply against
the figure, but they We're not cut ac-
cOrding to the prophesied silhouette
which has come true.
1t may also come about that the
greater number of women will not take
up the narrow skirt when it appears
in most Of the French models, but If
the past is any forecast of the future,
the narrow skirt will grow in strength
as the spring advances and will be-
come the accepted silhouette of the
summer. Women of judgment and adj
vance taste in gowns already consider
the five-yard hem a second-class fash
ion.
The openings in Paris, as they have
been outlined to this country, can be
summed up briefly as advance infor-
nation to those who are already look
ing for new spring clothes.
A vast number Of separate skirts
were turned out by the best designers,
buyers, it is said. This fact argues
that the American woman will take up
the separate skirt with sports jacket
or sweater or a separate coat, as she

Fewer Tailored Suits.
There are fewer tailored suits turned
out than usual. The deficit is due to
the fact that the men who do this kind
of work are under the colors. The one
piece frock, the three-quarter top coat,
the separate skirt and the chemise
blouse are the garments that are of
fered instead of the usual coat and
skirt of cloth or silk.
The majority Of one-piece gowns
carry loose wraps with them. These
capelike garments are made of the
same material and faced with an OPP
posing color, and again, they are of
another material and color.
A dlgnified house like Worth has
put emphasis upon sharply tailored
skirts to be worn with separate blouses
and topped by jackets that are shorter
than any we have worn for two years
These jackets are not fitted to the fig
ure, but are a compromise between q
cape and coat.

Popularity Of Peanut Growth.

1t has been noticed that the common
peanut grows in a peculiar way that is
distinctly original. The little plant
sends up Its shoots, with the fruit on
the end of a somewhat stiff stalk, and
then before 1t ripens the stem bends
over and carefully pushes the fruit un'
foreground.

Captain RathurstS statement is
somewhat disquieting to the public and

to the delay in the execution by the

ELEPHANTS

The wonderful thing about an ele-
plant is his nose.
He can wave it. He can wrap it
around his ear. He can chase flies
up and down his back with it. And
if he happens to be travelling in a
stock car he can send it out for air.
Think what a man could do with
a nose like that. When his wife
smeIed smoke he could sit where he
was and sniff in the other rooms. And
when it came to Dutch lunches he
could hang his nose out of the win
dow and enjoy his limbUrger in
peace.
Oh, for a wandering nose!
