The L'Anse sentinel. (L'Anse, L.S., Mich.) 18??-current, 1918-06-01

This gown 10 IN black taffeta enbroid-
cred with Jet beads, Is very narrow
at the hem and has short tight
sleeves. An apron Of black taffeta
Is gathered to the yoke In front and
left open In back, where It is edged
with a narrow piece Of white fur at
each side. Jet cord passes through
Sits In front and ties, with ends that
reach nearly to the knees.
decide what Is best to be done and
will either coincide with the new meth
cd Of work or go against 1t. There
fore, she ought to be informed of the
conditions.
The American buyers were not en-
thusiastic, It is true, over the purchas-
ing OF hundreds of French gowns, al
though they spent an immense amount
of money out of pure good will and TAX
ing q gamble. The prices were beyond
all limitations set for clothes. France
said she was compelled to ask such
pricesx and the American buyers
thought they were compelled to give
them; but they assert themselves as
determined never to do 1t again.

REALLY SEEMED ONLY WAY
Smiths Idea Was Bright Enough IL tho
Horse Would Only DO Ills
Part in the Game.

John Smith bought horse. The
first Sunday after the purchase he and
his bosom pal harnessed the horse to
a trap and went into the country on
fishing trip. At the shore of the lake
they Embarrassed the horse, and let
1t loose while they tished.
Presently the sun began to go down,
and Smith ana pal decided to get ready
for the return journey They caught
the horse, and Smith began to harness
1t. But here they met difficulty.
The horse wouldn't open its mouth for
the bit.
They tried every means they could
think of, but Stil the stubborn animal
stood with closed mouth, placidly
watching them.
AT last Smith sat on the ground and
began to tell jokes-horribe moth
eaten jokes. that Adam would have
thought chcstnuis.
What on earth are you doingY
asked Smiths pal.
Trying to get the beast to yawn,"
said Smith.

Land Of Lanterns."

Among the Chinese there has exist
ed for ages passion for fireworks and
lanterns. In every city, at every port
and on every river and canal, as soon
as night comes on, the lanterns make
their appearance. They are hung out
at the door of every dwelling; they
swing as pendants to the angles of the
pagoda; they form the fiery crown of
every shop front; they cluster round
the houses of the rich and light up
the novels Of the poor; they are borne
with the carriage Of the traveller, and
they swing from the yards and masts
Of his vessel.

French Clothes
at High Prices

Two hundred and fifty dollars was
a simple price for any gown. Two
hundred dollars was asked for mus
lin without lace or embroidery. Calloe
asked from five to six hundred dollars
apiece for her evening frocks. Now
add to that the 60 per cent duty which
every merchant must pay to our Gus
toms. There were some gowns that
cost thousand dollars to land. What
would be the return on such clothes3
No American woman would buy them.
Americas Narrow Skirt
It may be remembered that last sens
son America Invented the skirt with
The L'Anse sentinel. (L'Anse, L.S., Mich.) 18??-current, 1918-06-01

A Girlish Frock by Doueillet-lt is
made of dark blue taffeta, with round
neck and short baby sleeves. The
decolletage is trimmed with gold
braid, and this is repeated at one
side of the skirt, where it ends in
several gold roses.
the slight hustle and the bias folds 60
ing upward from the knee to the back.
1t is claimed that q French designer
sent to this country for twelve of these
sketches, and adopted the hustle In def
erence to American wishes. Good evil
dence for the truth of this statement
is shown in the hustle which certain
French house has sent to this country.
Another piece of alteration that Is
given away by good dressmakers is
adding to frock narrow plain under
skirt and cutting the gown itself 10 to
II inches shorter, and letting it fall as
a tunic with girdle over the new ad-
dition. This eliminates the flares in
the chemise robe Of yesterday and
gives one the proper silhouette.
AS long as it Is fashionable to wear
two or three materials in combination
one is not called upon to match the
one-time chemise gown in cloth or
color when adding separate under
skirt over which to drop it. Black
satin goes with tlue serge, beige cloth
or brown gaberdine. 1t also goes with
plaids and checks; and on the other
hand Scotch designs in wooden and
other fabrics are used for skirts.
TUNES of plain material are combined
with these skirts by the best dress
makers, and therefore the amateur
sewing woman need not be timid In
making the same combination.
The prophets who spoke against the
success CT the Italian neckline should
be without honor today. The Ameri-
can woman took up this difficult neck
line of the Renaissance with an en-
thusiasm that was most unexpected.
One might call 1t well nigh universal
wherever fashionably dressed women
are foregathered. 1t is not only the
ruling line in gowns for the street and
semiformal frocks for the evening, but
1t rules In separate blouses.
1t is not considered fashionable any
more to pull the collar Of ones blouse
over ones coat. Remember that. 1t
Is a small touch, but a most important
one, this spring. The coat may have
Its own collar Of white pique batiste
or filet lace, but 1t cannot be orna-
mented with collar that is not attach
ed to 1t.
1t is not necessary to keep to white
at the neckllne. Collars and cuffs are
nade Of white organizes and checked
ginghams; but these should not be
adopted for any hour except informal
ones.

New York.-The millions who are
employed In the making of women's ap'
parel In this country are disturbed by
an important discussion that is going
on among themselves.
II has to do with the Importation OF
French clothes, with the prices asked
Tor all kinds of apparel, with the
threatened abolition of the famous
Wrench semiannual exhibitions, and
~ssn the tendency OF the public to
ssE Tor American clothes.
no woman should be ignorant of this
situation, asserts prominent fashion
writer. On her shoulders, as an indl-
vidual, which is part Of n mass, rests
much of the responsibility of the fu-
ture. In France women are the de-
cisive factors in fashion; in this coun-
try they have not assumed that role.
With the exception of few, they are
willing to be led. They are guided by
those in authority, and those in au-
thority are guided by Paris.
This is not true to the extent that
the reformcrs and the critics preach.
No one is any the worse for it. Our
country has not been in position to
assume the leadership in fashions, any
more than in art, architecture or liter
allure. We have had to be led in all
these things; yet the very man who
goes To Paris and Italy for art is the
first one to ask his wife why she is
foolish enough to adopt the French
fashions
IT, therefore. the American women
We're not free thinkers regarding
clothes, and were merely led into each
fashion by comfortable moose that
wuS pulled along by the merchants
and dressmakers, it was because they
plncidly felt that this was the best
path in which they should tread.
Since the war, however, there has
been a growing feeling here of indepen-
dence of Paris. All of us who firmly
believed that no country could get
along without the deciding vote of
France as to what should be done in
clothes, realized, during the first years
of the war, that our opinion was cor
rect.
Changes Of Importance.
But the situation has changed, and
our beliefs have changed with it. As
far as one can see, there is no chance
of our losing the comfort of getting
from Paris our inspiration as to the
silhouette, and we shall also get from
that country Of consummate art in ap'
parel, the various movements of cloth
the details of ornamentation, and the
production of new tissues, which slim
ulate and enliven our work. But-and
/ say that with full conviction, after
talking with people in power ard with
dressmakers, designers ard merchants
who have had their hard on the pulse
of things for three years-a decided
change is coming over our method Of
launching fashions.
The reasons are important, not only
to the merchant, but to each woman

First SPRINGS Used on Railway.

The first record of the use of springs
on railways is George Stephenson's
patent of September, 1915. The first
locomotive with steel springs was the
Agenoria, built by Foster and Rastrick
In 1920, and now In South Kensington
museum, London. This had laminated
springs on the leading wheels.
