BlRD-CAGE HOOPS.

A DOUGHBOY wrote home to a girl
that the long. tight skirts she
wore would look very queer to him
after the short, wide skirts Of Paris.
and that II Paris led the fashion she
was out Of II.
The doaghhoy's right The woman
in America who wears the long. tight
skirt that hobbies the ankles Is in the
style, II the tghtness is restricted to
the ankles.
The average woman who is trying to
ecoi1omixe clings to the skirt that IL
tight at the knees and hips, and in that
she Is wrong. Well placed women con-
ttnue to wear these skirts, but In the
opinion Of all those who follow fash
ions the doughboy's criticism Is the
correct one.
America Is partially accepting the
very short skirt Of the French, which
has created more of a sensation among
our soldiers. to judge from letters and
comment, than the Louvre. the Luxem-
burg, or the banks of the Seine.
A man abroad has his inward eye
fixed on the girls at home. and he Is
continually making comparisons be-
tween what he sees and what he re-
members.
This Is the reason behind his delight
ed absorption in the knee-length skirts
of the French. He may be somewhat
astonished at the casual and unblush-
ing display Of the leg from knee to
ankle, but the average American man
has seen the American woman in SO
many athletic garbs in which the skirt
stopped at the knee that he has ceased
to be interested, to any great extent,
in the fact that the legs are exposed.
The shortness Of a skirt does not In
terest the American woman so much
as its width. and now that interest has
been stimulated by the appearance Of
the hoop.
There Is no doubt that the hoop 10

Novel Trimming.

mented their scant attire with the
scalps taken from those they had van
pushed and sought to And favor in
their loved ones eyes by presenting
them with some such dainty trophy as
q string Of teeth, to the present time.
there has been an endless quest for
something new in the way Of trimming
And the designer who invents or de-
vises something that really 10 new and
really finds favor Is truly genius.
Just at present women take pleasure
In wearing all sorts Of unusual things
as shoulder straps which, no matter
how small. still form q Comparatively
large part OF the bodices Of the new

feathers. Perhaps 1t 10 because cock
feathers are worn by certain Italian

As an engine OF war, may be screened
to appear something that it Is not. Wa
therefore speak OF balloon tunics, AL
gerian skirts. Spanish farthingales.
They all mean the same thing-that
the SKIRT with the hoop has not only
appeared over the horizon, but in
drawing rooms, on country porches
and in the street.
ItA first appearance was in the guisa
Of an Immensely full overskirt tucked
into q tight hem Of an underskirt
Then 1t gradually grew into stronger
proportions, and two or three models
were timid1y ventured that were really
wired skirts from the past.
There was no hobbled hem. There
was NO tendency for the hoop to mare
out at the hem, as 1t did when our
sainted ancestors bobbed around In the
dance and showed SO much Of their
legs that fashion called for pantalettes
as a means of modesty.
The genuine Spanish skirt had NO
hoops at the hem. neither had the
Elizabethan one, and 1t is these ancient
and honorable garments that our mod
ern dressmakers copy.
Any way, it's food for the reporter.

One need not shrink at the tight
trousers that show beneath the alb
hreviated skirt. for the street frock Of
today presents the same silhouette:
the difference lies in tho hem, which
Is not slashed.
The street bodices advocated for
summer are as sleeveless and needless
as bathing suits; truA. there Is .
no apology for one in the latter, but
the general effect is much the same.
There Is one bathing suit In tan jer-
ney cloth which IL trimmed with
worsted fringe and gives one the ap-
pearance Of IN Indian going down to
a pool.
An that the a1essnAkers do to this
model Is to lengthen the skirt by eight
inches and insert . nve-inch sleeve at
the armhole, where the worsteA fringe
outlines it
There is another allegea swimming
suit made Of supple. figured bsocads
In blue and green. worn ever Alua
tights. with a green sash tied In front.
This costume Is twin slater to Q
dinner gown tn which blue tulle In
substituted for tights; the tuntc Of
blue and green brocade Is the same,
and the sash Is the Same.
This tunic Is arranged over the
shoulders. In an attractive mannsr. 1t
Ia slashed into two pointed pieces from
bust to shoulder. showing the dseoilsts
slip Of blue tulle between tho slnshss
as far as the upper hne Of the best;
then the flesh above this. and each
point Is caught on the shoulder With
a button Of silver thread.
When one states that the modarn
bathing suit costs from $4B to SIS,
there Is q giimmering idea in the brain
that things have changed. Today the
most careless rent suit from bath
ing house; only the most penurtous
buy . hve-dollar costume.
The majority bring great thought to
the beach suit. They spend half the
day in 1t on the beach because sun
baths are a cult.

beach suits than morning frocks, for
they remain from 10 to in the

silk blankets. oriental cushions and

from France. Luncheon Is served from

will hight for it," he continued. II It
is necessary TO fight Italy will rise
enmassee. we will keep the city, the
port and the surrounding territory.
Premier Nitti and King Emmanuel
know this and that is the reason that
Italy, morally speaking, is in a state Of
revolution. That is why the present
dynasty is risking its throne. That is
why we cry to England and France !:
Beware, if we fall into anarchy; what
happens to us will happen to you.

the same project as D'Apnunzio carried
out but was forstalled.
General Garibaldi. Italys well-known
soldier Of fortune, was reported a few
days ago TO have arrived in Paris on
an official mission from Rome.
