QUESTION OF THE BRASSIERE
Difficult to Determine Whether the Ap-
parel Should Be Included Under
Corset or Lingerie Head.

1t is hard to know whether bras
sieres ought to be included under
the general head of corsets or lingerie.
1t is true that they carry out and ac-
centuate the best lines of the corset,
and an intelligent corset saleswoman
can always recommend special bras
siere to go with any style corset that
you may choose.
Filet lace is used lavishly in some
of the new brassieres. They are in
deed far different than those of heavy
linen-rather bulky and clumsy in ap-
pearance, however satisfactory in eff
fect-that were introduced into the
market when brassieres first came into
fashion. 1t is now possible to get bras
sieres for evening wear, no matter how
low the decolletage may be. Some are
made with deep V at the back, straps
of lace over the shoulder and round
or V line at the front. Others are
made without any shoulder straps, but
are so cleverly cut that they give the
necessary support to the figure.

dine and Embroideries Worked in
Self-colored Silks and Wools.

The second sketch shows one of Pre-
NETS latest spring models.
This little gown was created for Il
favorite Partisan actress, who is going
to Monte Carlo to give some 'war char
ity" performances. The material of the
original model, writes Idalia de vii
liers, was beige gaberdine and the EN-
broiderles were worked in self-colored
silks and woods. The smart collar was
made of beaver fur, and the cuffs
matched. This dress would look quite
as well with collar and cuffs of velvet,
or of the dress material embroidered.
At the same time it must be record
ed that small fur collars are appearing
on many of the new spring dresses
and it is whispered that when the hot
summer days are with us again we
shall be bringing out such summer
furs" as beaver, fitch, dyed rabbit and
mole. This fashion of applying small
pieces of fur to summer dresses is not

Distinnuishinn Moods.

The number of woods commonly
used in the construction and furnish
ing of dwellings is limited. Some
woods can be distinguished hy their
color alone, but in others the color is
not distinct enough to permit of ac-
curate description; therefore, the
structure is also taken into considera-
ton. Hardwoods can be distinguished
from the softwoods by the presence of
numerous larger cells or pores, scat
tered more or less abundantly through
out the annual ring, but not constitute
ing the entire bulk of the wood. These
pores should be looked for only on
smoothly cut end surface, and they
may not be visible without a hand lens

SURPLICE JACKET A NEW ONE
Coat Is Already in America, but France
Is Sending over Various Appli-
cations of the One Idea.

Cheruit is showing short jackets
with fronts cut into long ends that
cross below the bust, slip through
slashes in the underarm seams and
come out again to tie at the back. This
coat Is already in America, according
to fashion writer, but France is send
ing over, later, a dozen or more appli-
cations of the one idea.
There are short zouave jackets with
ends that do not go through any slashes
in the underarm seams, but frankly
form girdle and tie in n fiat bow at
the back of the waist. If this jacket is
of dark blue serge or gaberdine, as 1t
frequently is, it has these ends tipped
with bright scarlet broadcloth or An
CORA cloth, to match the short, military
collar taken from the English uniform.
Angora cloth is used by France on
the best coat suits. A piece of time
worn sweater, for instance, would pro-
vide an attractive accessory on a new
suit under the ruling of this law.
Girdles are made of this Angora
cloth, as well as cuffs, and some short
coats are edged with band of 1t. In
green, scarlet and blue, 1t is exceed
ingly popular.
Writing of sweaters, the newest one
brought from France is made from
baby ribbon in bright colors. 1t is the
top notch conservation sweater. Not
an inch of worsted is used. France
has launched it as the successful nov
city of the season, and it bids fair to

WAISTCOATS SURE OF FAVOR
Garment Promises to Be Much Worn
This Spring, Adding to the Ward
robe Of Smart Women.

Waistcoats are surely to be much
worn this spring and an important ac-
cessory in the smart woman's ward
robes, since the neckwear counters in
most shops show them in most tempt
ing cut and color.
The fact is, notes a fashion writer,
owing to the wool shortage that makes
necessary a curtailing of the amount
of fabric in the woolen suit for spring,
the Eton coat and other types of short
coat are coming in with a vengeance.
And the waistcoat that extends below
the coat in front will help to piece out
this stubby little coat.
Clever women will find an excellent
way of remodeling last years suit by
shortening the coat-or having tailor
do so for them-and Frightening 1t and
rejuvenating it by adding waistcoat
