EVER CHARMING VELVET

Velvet is the Joy of every woman's
heart. 1t used to be that most women
waited until their daughters were mar
ried or at least fifty years had been
reached before they could boast of a
velvet gown. In those days a black
velvet gown and some "real' lace and
pearls were the synonyms of much
wealth, therefore 1t is no wonder that
all women longed for a velvet gown.
Of course, velvet was frightfully ex-
pensive in those long ago times, but
nowadays with duvetyn at $40 the
yard, and peach bloom and tricolette
close followers in this price, vel
vet seems almost economical. It is
much used for the one-piece afternoon
frock.
Not so much trimming is used on
the velvet dresses. One excellent ex-
ample is of black chiffon velvet with
the draped hips so prevalent. The
only, trimndng used is introduced at
the neck in half collar and on the
sleeves in half cuffs of silver cloth
embroidered in beautiful shade of
myrtle red. This fashion of making
very small collars and cuffs is a lovely

Teddy Told Him.

When Theodore Roosevelt was pres

a bundle of letters of introduction. He
stated his request and closed his ar

do this for me you will please the peo-

one, as charming touches of color can
be cleverly used.
The very long overblouse of velvet
or plated satin or georgette is des-
tined to become very popular, as IT
is practical mode which all may fol-
low. The new plaid skirts Of the fine
Scotch woolens are particularly good
when topped with a tailored velvet
overblouse Of some harmonious color
contrasting well with the mingled
plaids. Everything in Paris reveals
plaitings Of some sort, bodices, skirts
and indeed entire dresses being made
of knife plated or accordion plated
fabrics. The latter plaits are more
satisfactory than the wider, as they
are put in by machinery and do
not come out SO persistently as the
others do.

The demand for the practical and
very smart one-piece dress Of serge
or tricolette has in no way abated, ad-
vises leading fashion writer. In
deed the new models Of this sort #
frock are so charming as well as so
serviceable that no wardrobe is COM
plete without at least one. Serge
seems to have had its day, at least for
the early fall and spring, for at this
time the newer duvetyns and tri-
colettes are raging up and down the
land.
1t is hardly possible to describe the
beauty of these one-piece frocks.
When one has said they are of either
Of the two materials mentioned and
that they are Of the chemise type
much has been told, but to appreciate
fully the beauty and charm of such a
dress one must see it. The trimmed
hips prevail in the smartest of the new
models. In fact, every dress, Of what
ever nature, reveals this fashion of
adjoining the hips. This is done either
by so arranging the draperies that they
give the desired extended line or by
placing fringes, plaits, braid or frills
in decidedly extended effect along
the hips and down the sides.

skirt is extended in wide flare, sug-
costing pockets which stand well away
from the body of the gown. Except
for the line of buttons down the back
or an occasional string belt this gown
shows no other trimming. Obviously
it is for the very slender, since the
curved and more developed figures
will not appear to advantage in a
gown of such straight up and down eff

Earthss Life Zones.

Biologists have divided the entira
surface of the earth into life zones,
each zone having much the same fora
and fauna wherever found. The life
zone in given locality depends upon
both latitude and elevation. Thus
the Canadian life zone, which has
everywhere plants and animals simi-
lar to those of Canada, is found in
the high Rocky Mountains as far south
as southern Colorado and northern
New Mexico.

Fringe on Duvetyn Dresses.

The duvetyn dresses, too, are being
trimmed with this long fringe, as, for
example, one finds ~taupe duvetyn
with the bodice made entirely of an
uncut silken fringe placed over the
duvetyn. The long apron tunic re-
peats a row Of the fringe along the
edge. Nothing has been more inter-
esting than the continuation of this
fringed trimming. 1t was SO exploited
two seasons ago that 1t comes as a
slight surprise that it is still famed
just now and seemingly more than
ever. Undoubtedly we shall see much

feet that the skirt is little wider than
the bodice.
Doubtless we shall grow little
tired of the emphasized trimming on
the hips, but at this time 1t is well to
recognize the fact that this sort of
trimming is distinct feature In the
one-piece gown.
The coat dress Stimulating jackets
or longer coats is ideal when devel-
oped In navy blue serge or duvetyn
or tricolette. The latter fabric will
probably be superseded as the season
advances except in those cities where
the climate permits lighter weight fab
RIGS than the wooden.
1 have observed a very charming
coat dress of dark blue serge with
tight, narrow underskirt of the serge,
ankle length, and over which there
hangs a tunic of the serge somewhat
fuller than most we see. The upper
part of this dress has a short Elton
jacket faced down the front with scar
let broadcloth, and this is toned down
with black soutache. The scarlet
cloth forms a rather narrow vest and
belt extending all the way around
the waist. The sleeves are long and
tight, of the coat type, and button at
the wrist. This is an ideal morning
dress for shopping or other practical
street wear. Soft fur collars of fox or
lynx are worn with this kind Of dress.
French Styles Modified.
The duvetyn frocks are particularly
lovely this year. They do not follow
closely the French abbreviated sleeves
and skirts, though the general idea Of
the French dresses, uncorseted, loose
and scant, has been followed and mod
flied to suit the American wearer.
Many of the duvetyns have deliberately
embroidered motifs on the skirts.
Some have aprons of cloth thickly
stitched with contrasting silk in good
designs which enhance the beauty Of
the dress. They all have for the most
part the new square cut neck, not
nearly so decollete as earlier models
were, and the sleeves may be short or
long, as preferred. If short, they reach
Nwell to the elbow and flare. The longer
sleeve Is Of the most tailored coat type
and buttons at the wrist. Some of the
makers do not adopt this method of
closing a sleeve,
Fringe, ruffies and ribbons are to be
reckoned with this fall. AS to the
fringe, many of the Partisan gowns of
the most elaborate materials show it
used in the most lavish way. For in
stance, over a gown Of black satin
there is placed an overdress Of long
and very heavy black silk fringe which
hangs from the neck to the hem. AT
| the waist the fringe is held in with a
string belt ending with long silken tas-
sells. From underneath this belt the
| long ends of the fringe hang out, and
as they flare with every movement of
| the wearer the effect is distinctly Ha-
| waiian or Samoan, where short skirts
| of curious straw fringe are worn.
Two of these fringed silken frocks

Sudden Change for Worse in
Ruhr Strike-Murdered
Men Eulogied.

Weimar, Feb. 22.-(A. P)-The ma
tional assembly held today's session
under the disheartening influence OF
the Munich murders and a sudden
change for the worse in the strike
situation in the Ruhr industrial Sec
tion. News of the killing of Premier
Eisner of Bavaria and the probable
assassination of Herr Auer, the min
lister of the interior. and other minis
ters was posted on the newspaper
bulletin board in the lobby just be-
fore the session opened.
President Fehrenbach at once gave
the floor to Chancellor Scheidemann
who in an address of deep feeling
warmly eulogized. the men reported
killed. Even the authorities have
been unable to obtain exact news re-
garding the Munich developments, as
the rioters appear to control the Mu-
mich postal and telegraph offices, but
enough is known to make 1t certain
that Bavaria is going through a crit
ical period.
The members of the assembly and
the crowds in the galleries stood ir
a tribute of respect to the political
leaders at Munich who had been made
victims and remained standing as the
chancellor spoke.
