OF Interest TO Women
PARIS REVIVES THE PEASANT BLOUSE.

that is, and not by mere spectators of
the strenuosity of other people, the
peplum blouse will hold its own, and
bit over.
The one shown in the sketch today
is the sort Of garment that a golfer or
a tennis player might include in her
professional wardrobe. 1t is Of tan 5er-
sey-every other garment is OF jersey,
you know-and 1t Is embroidered in
peasant coloring Of red and black and
worn with a small black tie and a pat
ent leather belt. It has a slight tracery
on the smock collar and around the hem
edge.
Like many of the clothes of today,
1t pulls on over the head. No fear of
accidents to body and skirt when you
are frocked like this. Reaching after
the high ones cannot make you un-
slightly and cannot disarrange your
belta1 arrangements, once the vital
point In a woman's clothes communities
tons With blouse like this she can
protect herself from the hercest en-
croachments of untidiness
But like SO many other practical
fashions, this blouse is only for those
OF slender proportions around the hips.
A pepium gathered and full below the
waist line makes a stout woman look
like hogshead and should be for her
anathema marandtha!

Try Making Your ODn
Cough Remedy
You can save about - ana have

made kind. Easily done.

If you combined the curative prop
critics of every known 'readymade"
cough remedy, you would hardly
have in them all the curative power
that lies in this simple homemade"
cough syrup which takes only few
minutes to prepare.
Get from any druggist III ounces
of Pinex 600 cents worthy pour it
into a pint bottle and fill the bottle
with plain granulated sugar syrup.
The total cost is about IS cents and
gives you a full pint of really better
cough syrup than you could buy
readymade for $3.50. Tastes pleasant
and never spoils.
This Pinex and sugar syrup prepa-
ration gets right at the cause of
cough and gives almost immediate
relief.
A days use will usually overcome
the ordinary cough and for bron-
chitis, Group, whooping cough and
bronchial asthma there Is nothing
better.
Pinex is a most valuable concen-
trated compound of genuine Norway
pine extract, and has been used for
generations to break up severe
coughs.
To avoid disappointment, be sure
to ask your druggist for "zIz ounces
of Pinex" with full directions, and
don't accept anything else. A guar
antee of absolute satisfaction or
money promptly refunded goes with
this preparation.

economy class. Gingham dresses cost
ing from s35 to $50 and $50 each were
shown in the shops without prelim-
mary apology. Women bought them.
Gingham is again exhibited, and
southern resort dresses of it are now
being shown. That it's popularity will
continue throughout the summer there
is no reason to doubt. Silk gfngham
is the newest favorite. and it is shown
in really beautiful plaids and colorings
A silk gingham frock may be just as
dressy as one of taffeta, satin, crepe
or georgette and much more of nov
city. The modish little frock shown in
the sketch is of Scotch plaid silk gfng-
ham, made with a triple tunic. That is.
the underneath skirt, which is very
narrow, measuring only about one and
a half yards at the hem. is topped by
two deep fiounces or tunics gathered in
a simple straight belt at the waist line.
This dainty frock buttons simply in
the center back, and as viii be noted.
the neck is finished with a collar made
Of sheer white organdy. which is
crossed surplice fashion and drawn to
the back. where the ends are2 tied at
the waist line. Cuffs Of organdy finish
the sleeves.
This gown could be made up in linen,
in any one of the silks that are popular
for spring and summer. or 1t could be a
more distinctly summery affair of dot
ted swiss or voile.
Simplicity may be recorded as the
keynote OF the coming seasons styles,
but generous variety is in evidence
Economy will undoubtedly enter large
ly into the selection of fabrics. but
style numbers have not been reduced.
Tunics are very much favored in Or
der that skirts may not seem unbecom-
ingly skimpy. Loose flying panels and
apron effects are also in evidence.
The vogue for simply designed
clothes is traceable directly to the in
fluence of the war. More and more
women are becoming really useful
members of society. and as this con-
dition grows clothes that are prac-
tical as well as becoming and beauti-
full will have an increasing demand.

THE WATCH OF JoDAY.

The extremely thin watch is prob
ably more than passing fad, for there
can be no doubt of the fact that a thin
watch is more serviceable and con-
yenient than a watch Of greater thick
ness Imagine trying to slip one Of
the pudgy. mid-Victorian "turnips" in
to your waistcoat pocket with the same
effect that man manipulates one Of the
new extremely thin timepieces! I'M
agine, too. how inconvenient the egg
shape watch would be as part of a
wrist watch arrangement!
OF course the first thing to think OF
In buying watch is still as always
the question Of its ability to keep cor
rect time for a considerable period Of
time. However. we nowadays depend
on 5he word Of our jeweler for that and
our own attention is directed to the
choice of the case and the various at
tachments. For now a watch is not
a simple round little thing at all. 1t
comes with various ways of transform
ing tit is a bracelet one day and a
necklace pendant another. 1t is worn
on ribbon links or velvet according to
the caprice Of the wearer.
Perhaps the most popular wrist watch
at the moment is that of the ribbon,
inexpensive though this may be. And
now one can buy the ribbon sections
that can make of almost any small
watch ribbon bracelet. These consist
Of the narrow ribbed ribbon-it is
somewhat over a half inch in width
with patent extension attachment so
that 1t may readily be made to fit any
wrist or to be worn either on the
smallest part of the wrist or higher up.
There are two sections-one at either
end.that attach to the watch and a
buckle half way round. The black rib
bon is especially striking when the
watch is of platinum or platinum with
diamond combination.
AS matter of fact jewelers. will sup
ply their customers with ribbons of al
most any hue specially made for the
ribbon wrist watch. but the plain black
is still leading in popularity. One rib
bon sold for this purpose is advertised as
possessing waterproof finish, so that they
do not absorb moisture and are not affected
this purpose is advertised as possessing
waterproof finish, so that they do not
absorb moisture and are not affected
by 1T. This must be an advantage for
the girl who wears her watch in warm
weather Or In warm rooms when her
wrist may become slightly moist The
gold or silver link is, of course. still
extremely attractive as the means of
holding the watch on the wrist and
the gold mesh ribbon that fits the arm
as snug1y as does the silk ribbon is ex-
quisitely dainty though, of course, quite
expensive.
Few persons realize that almost any
little watch that has works worth hav-
ing repaired will make over very nice
ly into wrist watch. Some of the
small old silver watches that are to be
found laid aside in every household
may be transformed into very attrac-
tive wrist watches.

Special Correspondence Of The Star.
NEW YORK, January 21.-The career
Of the peplum blouse has been an inter-
esting one. Hailed as the solution OF
tho whole separate waist problem. 1t
finds itself, after some popularity, los
ing ground again. At first only the
expensive shops and the very best
houses carried it. Smart dressmaking
houses put their names to it, and it
was an exclusive, distinguished gar
ment which could not be found at all
in the lines Of the wholesale houses.
1t enjoyed this exalted position for
a while, and then the usual fate that
catches up with most novelties in
America overlook It. and it became too
popular to be smart. Having reached
this stage, it seems to be going back
to the first one; for it has appeared

.jAPAN'S WAR POLICY
IS UNDER CRITICISM
Opposition Members of Diet,
Soon to Convene, Will
Launch Attack.

LONDON, January 22-The war
policy of the japanese government is
to be subjected to attack at the ses-
sion of the diet, which will be con-
vened shortly. according to advices
from Toxic, as forwarded in a Reuter-
dispatch from Shanghai. AS is custom
ary on the eve of meeting of the
diet the political parties assembled
Sunday and issued declarations.
The Kensaikai. or opposition party,
asserts the government has failed in
its policy toward China, has not been
sufficiently positive in its support of
the allies, and has handled finances in
judiciously. 1t says the government is
unable. to read the public mind and is
not supported by the people. The gov
ernment diplomacy. it declares. has
always missed opportunities, especially
as regards China, with whose domestic
affairs it interferred without justilca-
ton.
Would Strengthen Relations.
The Kensaikai will endeavor, the
declaration says, to strengthen friend
ly relations with China. 1t urges more
complete devotion to the purposes of
the allies in prosecution of the war and
advocates wiser expenditures for ma
tional defense.
Viscount Kato, who was foreign min
lister in the Okuma cabinet and is lead
er OF the opposition party. made long
speech in which he eulogized the allies,
especially France. for their courage
and devotion. He said the dignifed
utterances Of Premier Lloyd George
and President Wilson, clearly defining
their war aims to the entire world,
were welcomed warmly in Japan.
This country. he continued, was tnsur-
ing the safety Of navigation in tho North
and south Pacific and the Indian ocean,
and was cooperating elsewhere and also
giving financial assistance. Tho states

viscount Kato outlined what he re-
garded as the shortcomings Of the gov
ernment. especially its dealings with
China and its naval program. which, he
said, was inadequate. His speech indi-
Gated the general line of attack in the
diet.
The Seiyuka. or constitutional party
which Is supposed to support the govern
ment. announced q policy of strict neu-
trality. declaring It would not commit

All agreed, however. that the situation
was critical, and that It would be neces-
sary for Japan to be extremely careful,
especially in dealings with China.
