LATE PARIS MODES
Skirts Are Shorter, Sleeves Both
Short and Long.
Monkey Fur Trimming Used on Gowns
and Wraps; Much silk Braid
Is Favored.


Fashions may come and fashions
may 60, but Paris keeps right on,
thinking up new and more fascinating
ones to take their places. At least
so madame viii think when she sees
the new clothes the fashion makers
have planned for her winter wearing.
No. skirts are not going to be longer.
Any woman can decide that for her
self when she sees the new gowns.
They were short, they grew shorter,
and one might say that the new skirts
for winter are shortest Of ALL Sleeves
too, are as often short as long. Some
are high above the elbow, some cover
the wrist and come down over the
hand-but then one expects Paris to
go to extremes-and she does.
For the new gowns the foremost
French dressmakers are using duve-
tyn, and the sOftest of crepes. One
charming gown, Lanvin, was of mid
night blue duvetyn with cut-out de
signs Of duyetyn on blue velvet trim
ming.
Monkey fur for trimming is another
Paris idea. 1t made striking bit of
trimming on smart new coat dress
Of white broadcloth, which had wide
band of white stitching on filmy
black net and a high collar and deep
cuffs of black monkey fur And this
same fur you will see used on other
Paris gOwns-gowns from the most
famous houses. And there are other
Ideas of trimming. Much silk braid
is used-the braid, of course, put on
by hand, in the French fashion, and
most effectively arranged. But most
unusual of all was the trimming on a
street dress, trimmed with shining
steel ''nailheads." 1t was certainly
unique, and, Queerly enough, was rath-
er attractive.
Paris wraps, too, show originality
and charm, and are sometimes as I'M
usual as the gowns. Think Of a wrap,
for instance, lined with shadow lace
Yet that was the distinctive feature
about one exquisite creation--a lovely
panne velvet in soft pink, lined with
frothy, creamy lace. By way Of finish
there was a fluffy collar and a band
Of snowy white fox.
You will see monkey fur on the new
wraps, toO-it was used on perfectly
beautiful black brocaded velvet. This
wrap was fined with robins egg blue
panne velvet, there were great orna-
ments and pendants at the armholes
and wide collar of monkey fur for
finishing touch.

PAUL JONES HAT THE MODE
Paris Copies Headgear Which Is Often
In Black Silk, With Flatly
Turned Black Brlm.

Paul Jones might have thought that he
led the fashion in waistcOats, of which
he was overly fond, but he did not give
much attention to his hat, and yet it
is this that Paris has copied and made
the mode. 1t is often in black silk
beaver, with its fatty turned back brim
and elongated ends on which are pun
balls of ostrich or other fantastic or
naments.
The navy hat may have been In
spired by the presence of American
admirals on dress parade in Europe
after the armistice, for it has appear
ed in several confOrmations. The tri-
corne is in fashion also, and the Mar
uuise. One seems not to escape this
type of hat. It may be outlined with
gold galloon. 1t may have hatpin
arranged as a cOckade. It often very
often. has face veil of, chantilly lace
attached across the front, but never at
the back.
This veil is thrown backward over
the stiff shape or left to conceal the
nose and chin. The most ornamental
ones are bordered with gold threads
in bold pattern.

BEAUTY MARSHALED FOB CAR
Russian Monarch Selected Bride From
the Prettiest Maidens Of Land
over Which He Ruled.

In Russia, in the Sixteenth century,
the choice of bride for the car was
made from all the pretty girls Of the
country. Ivan, who ruled 1530-1584,
being ready for a wife, ordered all the
beautiful girls in the country to come
to Moscow. Preliminary contests were
held in each province, and candidates
selected. In the majority Of cases the
contestants were delighted with the
chance to go to Moscow, and still more
delighted with hope of becoming
ruler Of Russia. An immense hail was
built and, on the day of the choosing,
1,50O of the most beautiful girls in
Russia were ready to contest fer
Tvan's favor.
Accompanied by an aged courtier
the car strOlled through the hall, all
the girls smiling shyly or openly at his
highness as he passed them. After a
process of elimination was gone
through with, Anastasia, daughter of
an ancient but poor family, was
chosen, and was made empress of
5O,0OO,O O0, people forthwith.

DISLIKE SONS TO GROW Or
Few Mothers Welcome the Time When
Their Boys Go Out Into the
Hard World.

Almost every mother keeps her beg
in "knee pants" just as long as Rha
can; She hates to see him becoming q
man, for she feels that he is getting
away from her.
A mother sees only with reluctance
the boy pass from the love and caro-
and peace with which she has sur-
rounded him, out into the world Of
pitiless endeavOr in which he must
play his part.
The mothers selfish fondness dis
closes itelf In the ludicrous chiRtYs
garment and the wOrnout, home-bred
horse with which she sends forth the
would-be knight. These are to the
modern analytical mind painfully sym
bolic of the unconscious interfepeg,ee
on the part of parents with the proper
adult equipment of their children for
an Independent life. Their apparent
fOndness conceals the unconscious wish
that the child will find himself nm
equipped for the greater world ana
compelled to turn back to the shelter.

THE LACE VOGUE CONTINUES
Decoration Approaches Favor It Knew
in Fifteenth Century and Is Used
in Great Profusion.

Lace approaches again such golden
age as it knew in the Fifteenth cen
fury. when drawn-work and cut-wOrk
established a transition from embroid-
cry to lace, according to Vogue. In
the Sixteenth century lace was even
more In favor and we find in the
modes Of the day those collars known
as "fraises," the deep cuffs and the
lace aprons on court gowns, such as
were worn by Catherine de Medici.
Particularly In Venice, the making of
needle-point lace had at that time d
period of great prosperity. Auvergne,
also, was famous for It's laces at the
same time, while in Flanders were
made embroidered tulles of inimitable
splendor, bits of which are still pre-
served in collections.
In the Sixteenth and Seventeenth
centuries lace continued in favor, and
even the men of the days of Louis XIV
and Louis XVI wore coats enriched
with the finest Valenciennes and Allen
con lace, while their handkerchlefs
made as lavish use Of lace as did
those of women of the day. 1t is to
Louis XIV that France owes the in
stallation of a great lace-maklng cen
ter in France and it was his patronage
which started the work which pro-
duced such wonderful results as the
point d'Alencon, the point d'Argentan,
the point de Bruxelles, and the point
d'Anplptere 1aPPS which were also
made in France.
