'Tucks Are Inverted.

The separate skirt heretofore has been considered among the utility gar- ments, but frail specimen of utility has appeared in this field in a tucked sheer silk crepe model. says the Dry Goods Economist. It is made in flesh, white and other popular crepe shades. One model in beige inverts the idea of tucking that is generally used by hav- ing deep hemstitched tuck at the top with the succeeding six or seven tucks becoming narrower toward the hem till the bottom tucks measure barely a quarter of an inch in width. Four clusters of tucks are effectively en- ployed on another skirt in gray crepe de chine, which is full gathered and has sash girdle.

SECRET OF DRESsMAKlNG ART
To Make Woman Being Gowned Un- derstand That Her Needs Are
 Understood Is True Gift.

1t is in the combination of color that the real secret of the art of dress making lies. If cultivated by the mod istes with an artistic appreciation of this fact, the designing of each gown becomes quite as interesting as the painters interpretation of color With in the scope of beauty on his canvas.
 "The most important rule which l discovered in the Course of my eXperi- ence," says the founder of the house of Frederick in London, '9s the gift to make the woman you are gowning realize that you understand her needs She must feel when she enters your establishment that the frame, the at mosphere, the mood of your establish ment pleases her.
 "There are few events so important in woman's life as the all-important business of ordering a new gown. It Is time of great anxiety to her. It is the crisis that decides whether her clothes are going to contribute to her happiness. What woman was ever happy in clothes she did not like? Therefore it makes all the difference 'in the world whether, when she visits her modiste. she feels in tune with the gowns that are displayed, as 1t were, on the knees of the gods."

fine bt of headwear will flourish amid the SHOWS of Canada or under the sun of Florida.
 Besides the all-flOwer hat, hats of satin and hats of crepe with chenille hraids are already 'gracing the heads Of those who stay in the North. The dark, lustrous strawS are trimmed with chou of velvet, or wings and worn with heavy furs-a promise of spring that keeps a happy thought in mind in the depth of winter. The hat of millinery patent leather is another that offers itself for northern wear now that our faces are turned toward spring. Lovely hats for afternoon or evening. made of black malines and panne velvet. in picturesque and dash- ing shapes belong wherever they hap pen to be found, and that is every where, from New York to San Fran cisco-from Canada to the Gulf.
 Unless she wants to be enticed into spending money, "safety first" argues that the smart millinery establish lishment is good place to stay away from during the next two months.

NARROW DRESS TO DOMINATE
Advance Note From Paris Is That There Will Be Enough Variation
 to Afford Choice for All Types.

Word comes from the French eap- ital that while the narrow dress styles will dominate the spring season, there will be enough variation to afford choice for all types of women. For one thing. the inclination will be to keep the sides straight and to mass the fullness--if such it can be called down the front and the back.
 To be sure the Vatican ideas h. 7ariably suggest Marie Antoinette mod els, with which they are iaenti- jed. Always the period" dress at :racts the designer, because it usually las some romantic or historical sig lificance which helps to feed the i'm agination and to make the replica nore beautiful even in it's application to the modern woman.
 An instance of this kind is found in model which has a skirt made of aream-colored lace flounces. There is l sort of tunic arrangement looped up at tine sides which serve to impart an old-time effect.
 With this skirt is shown a fitted basque of two-tone blue grosgrain taffetas. The material is extended be- low the waistline for about four inches and is slightly rippled. The tiny waist coat effect of the lace is decorated with miniature bows of blue velvet ribbon, and this ornamentation appears like wise on the elbow sleeves. The neck is square-cut in accordance With the modes of the time of Marie Antoin- cite.
 To be perfectly consistent, dress of this type must be accompanied by a hat of the same period. Such hat is made of lace on wire frame which has the characteristically up-turned brim at the back and which is trimmed with tiny wreaths of pink flowers and green foliage.
 < Long streamers of very narrow black velvet ribbon fall down the back, or may be carried forward over one shoul- der to add to the plquant en- semble. A dress and hat made on these lines are susceptible of development in other materials besides lace and silk, although one finds their best me dium in fabrics that duplicate those used in the original garments.

Among the bright and beautiful hats that are assembled and displayed for the benefit of those who go to the south in January there are always some models that may be worn in the North. Women who have no inten- ton of running away from winter and SHOWS nevertheless indulge themselves in hats that herald the spring. So it has come to pass that January and February are apt to find heads crowned With hats of satin, or malineS, or even dark. brilliant straws. They are not summer hats and they are not winter hats; they are hats that are adaptable to any cline.
 Among those that rejoice the eyes of those who answer the call of the North, and make glad the hearts of those who tarry in the North, there has appeared this year the hat covered with fine, dark purple violets. The flowers are very natural-lo0king of silk, and this model first bloomed in Paris. It is q small si.ape with a cov- ering of purple satin. Over this the violets are crowded and band of purple violet ribbon is tied about them. There is no good reason why the south prn tourist should have a monopoly of good things. and this heantifnl an,;

 ment regarding her experience With
 Cardui: q was suffered With a pain in my left side; could net sleep at night for this pain-alWays in the left side. My feet and legs were ter riblv swollen. I WAS almost in bed. My doctor told me tn use Ca1dui. took one bottle, which helped me, and
 after my baby came l was stronger and better, but the pain was still there
 at first let it go, bu l began to get weak and in 8 run-down condition, so l decided to try some more Cardui, which did. The last Caraui took
 made me much better, and, in fact, cured me. It has been a number of years, still l have no return of this trouble. l feel it was Cardui that eur

 If you feel week, tired worn-out or suffer from any of the ailments pe-
