SOUNDS DOOM OF PETTlCOAT
eIooners, Knockers and Combinations,
Also Hybrid Called Pettibocker,
SuppIant Usual Underoarnent.

Knockers and their kind have It all
their own way in these times. There
seems to be even an exaggerated ten
dency toward bifurcated garments and
apparently petticoats will soon be re-
duced to near the vanishing point. at
least so far as undergarments are con-
cerned, according TO Paris corre-
spOndent.
Their place is being gradually
usurped by pniamas. boomers and COM
binatiOns, with curious hybrid gar
ment called variously a pcttibocker or
a pedelette.
Not but what there are still plenty
of pretty petticoats to be had. for con.
servatives must always be catered to-.
PetticOats of the slenderest and most
demure proportions venture to display
themselves but the cxigcncics of war
times have taken toll of frills and all
unnecessary fullness.
There is n wool shortage. conse-
quently It Is decreed that only lin
tied amount of wool shall be used for
u suit. Fashion makes Il virtue Of
necessity and DEGREES i'm its turn that
the silhouette shall be sylphlikc which
makes petticoat supcrfuity. not to
say an error which brings us to the
conclusion that the only correct UNI
dcrgarments are boomers and COM
binatiOns.
There are boomers for all occasions
from those for street wear of satin or
jersey silk in black and all the dark
and neutral shades TO what might be
called evening boomers of pink satin
with lace frills. Pink satin. pink crepe
de chine and pink Jersey silk boomers
may be had. They are made quite
plainly or with only the hemstitched
finish which is used so much on the
better grade of underwear.
