There is much about the latter end
of the eighteenth century that is COM

square decolletage with the high line
at the back, the tight elbow sleeves
with their deep rufiles of precious lace,

Americas Victory CoIorS.

THOSE in America who choose tho
seasonal colors for the dyers and
dressmakers have united upon rich,
deep blue and a bright cherry as ths
victory colors for 1919. 1t is not the
red that we associate with conquerorss
1t is too light and thin in its tones;
but ii will undoubtedly prove sues

the victory blue.
The choice of these coiors is cons

of the costumes that these smart
women have invented for their own
delectation.
There is the rubberized cape, for in

clothes that are dug out from the cor

enveloping that il matters little what
one has on beneath it, II Is of gray
rubberized cloth, and it opens on each
shoulder. carrying out one of the
tricks tried with success on fur capes
in December, The buttons are of the
material, and the collar is the kind
that Sarah Bernhardt made famous
thirty-fiVe years ago. There is an OBJ
long cap of the same rubberized cloth,
and IL often has an oiled quill in it
which glistens in the rain and gives
good account of itself.
BY the way, many OF these new caps
have a long brim at the back which
acts as shield to the back of the
neck and sends the rain away from
the shoulders. You have seen this
brim on the hats of fishermen on the
beaches at Gloucester,
This rubberized cape turns it's glory
inside and presents it's gray surface to
the rain. Orange. scarlet, purple and
henna Innings are used. An umbrella
is not necessary with this garment,
but a woman uses 1t when IL matches
the gray OF the cape and the knob on
the handle matches the lining.
One woman turns herself out on the
street whenever her best clothes are
inadvisable in a beige colored leather
suit made by a sporting house. The
skirt is narrow and short. slit I'm the
back, then Tapped over to allow room
for walking. The trench coat Is cut
double breasted. with large, bundle
pockets and straight, stiff cuffs in
which woman now places her purse
and handkerchief. The cap. the um-
brella and the knitted muller, which
goes twice about the neck, are in dark
red. The double row of buttons in
front are made of leather, and tan
shoes with rubber soles and heels. are
laced up as high as the new regula-
tons will permit.
Leather is costly. you know, and
every woman does not feel that she
can indulge In It, but heavy brown
tweed which stands the rain in an
admirable manner, is used as u sub
stitute by another well dressed wom-
an. This has II short skirt heavily
stitched at the hem, and the odd
blouse, which looks like a jacket, goes
over the shoulders, l. fastened at each
side OF the chest, and has muller
as an attached collar. Tie buttons on
this suit are of leather, and the loops
that go over them are of stitched
tweed, There is u fiat cap OF brown
leather, and the high shoes have no
heels, but thick, extension soles and

Color VS.. Color.

THE trick is in knowing what colors
combine. 1t is not enough to-
know that such and such color car
ries fashions immediate favor, but
to know just what color that color
goes with to conform with the cans
mons of smartness. And really in
designing your new frocks IL you
have settled the matter of color com.
bination- you have accomplished
quite little. For color combinations
that would be impossible one season
have, because they are stamped with
the approval of some great Dress
maker, or through some association
combinations that are distinctly pos
Sible.
At the present time Paris has
of the times, taken first place among
stamped with her approval combina-
tions of metallic hue and almost any
color on the calendar. Thus many OF
the smartest new ribbons show silver
or gold threads running one way, with
the coiored threads running the others
These are used extensively in cons
nection with the new evening frocks.
Among the interesting ones are gold
and brown, gold with a bright blue
and silver with emerald green. Such
a ribbon would, of course, give the
key to the color scheme of the even~
ing frock on which it was used.
Pale blue georgette over yellow Is
color combination seen in some OF
the newest lingerie. The effect is a
rather vague green. For the young
woman with complexion fair and
clear such a color combination would
have great charm in an evening frock.
Henna may be on the wane. but it
has attached some interest to itself
even on the wane In a house gown
in which it is combined with mustard
yellow. Now. this doesn't sound very
pretty, and perhaps it isn't pretty, but
interesting it is. and it carries with it
a distinct impression of smartness.
Another color combination that
isn't pretty, but that has the right"
look to it. is violet and brick. Some
shades of brown are used with vivid
red in some OF the evening hats in
Paris, and. though brown and red
would to most persons seem to, be a
very unlovely combination, this car
ries the seal of fashions approval.
Cream and ceriSe are interestingly
combined in one of the new foulards.
and this might suggest a color scheme
for an afternoon frock of considera.
BILE distinction.
Particularly pleasing at all times
are com binations of two harmonizing
shades of the same color. They are
never difficult as are some OF the
more daring contrasting combina-
lions. Paquin used two shades of rose
in marquisette recently with extreme-
ly effective results, and another

sions. Nothing can divorce them from
these garments as long as they hold
together. Habit OF mind compels these
women to use these clothes for UNI -
brella days, hut the necessity for
warmth may compel them to get a
storm coat that covers all the shah
hiness beneath and presents TO the
outside world that spick and span APP
pearance which suggests that some
thing new is at hand.
The best of these storm coats Is Of
rubberized cloth. with cap TO match.

immense pockets at the hips, turned

Whatever else you eliminate In your
rain apparel don't omit pockets. They
have taken new lease of life. The
soldiers have taught us their smart
ness. and necessity has taught us
their convenience. They must be big

There are evening gowns which have

gowns that have a garland Of these

pearls across the front of the corsage,

from the elbow sleeves.

woman, even of the poorest class. is
not used to walking the streets in fair

compelled her to do this, through the
lack of taxis and money, she found
leather, oilskin and umbrellas neces-
sary.
1t rains In France more than it
SHOWS, and ii is the other way around
in America during the winter months;
but as snow with us very often turns
to slush and is usually as damp as
rain in the cities. If not in the isolated
country places, the same kind of cos
tune which the French have taken up
for rain will suit us for all the wet
weather against which we must steam
ahead.
The woman who argues that 1t is not
worth while to get a bad weather cos
tune this late in the season does not
realize that when the snow ceases the
rain begins, when the fogs lift the
wind begins to blow. There is not a
month or week in the year in which
we can be entirely free from the mem
ace of bad weather, and the costume
which Is intended for one kind of day
will serve for another, II ii is wisely
chosen.

femininity at the call of bugle. They
have heard the cry Cease firing"
but they do not wish to cease dressing
in military manner.
Consequently, they have gotten UP
all kinds of clever costumes for days
of wet weather, and these give them u
chance to keep away from velours and
velvcteen, from lace collars and vel
vet hats. These are the women who
look with scorn upon the theory that
old clothes should be worn on the days
when umbrellas are needed. As the

Upon the clouded horizon OF the
restless world to-day the most nope
full sign is the fact that Jesus and
most of his apostles were caliouS-
palned workingmen.
1'hat portends peace. When the
worlds toilers turn from the shrill'
harsh and hate-filled voices OF pres
ent-day leaders" they VIII pc

Most of what ID wrong with TINS
old earth-its injustices, its eva
sions, its >ignorances, its prejudices'
it's selfishness-is due to plain mis-
understanding Whatever peril there
is in our own present situation arises
from the lack of confidence of masses
of people in the sincerity and synpa-
thy of lawmakers and executives.
They feel that their viewpoint Is not
the viewpoint of the dominant few.
Jesus and his associates are not
subject to this suspicion. TheY
were plain people, workers with Their
hands. They experienced the lot OF
the poor. All their teachings re-
vcaled n sympathetic comprehension
of the loads that the mass OF man
kind carry. One of lour modern
poets, Sara N. Cleghorn, has strlk-
ingly voiced this message from the
Bible:

At mass meetings in Palestine,
