IN PRINCESS MODE
Old Favorite Is Returning in
New York Fashions.
Colonial Line With BUSTED and Pan.
niered Hips, Wasp Waist and
Berthaed Neck.

Manhattan's winter season Of lob
ster cocktails and grand opera win be
a shady season as far as feminine re-
gala is concerned, according to a New
York fashion writer.
Each day on the avenue brings out
new evening creations Of hue as SOM
Der as the proverbial ravens wing.
Wholesalers, retailers and dapper sales
men say that this is the aftermath Of
the orgy of color in evening gowns
worn directly after the wartime habili-
ments Of mourning were cast aside.
Whatever the cause, the truth is
that the fluffy-ruftly ingenue glrly-glrly
frock of pastel-tinted tulle and chiffon,
or some gorgeous, lustrous satin be-
spangled with rhinestoneS, has given
the right of way to stately and ma
trOnly figure-swathing gowns OF, Jet,

The old princess line is returning.
Some modistes are endeavoring to
break this similar line to the street
mOyen age and chemise dresses by de-
veloping the colonial line with BUSTED
and panniered hips, wasp waist and
berthaed neck. A certain house on
Fifth avenue which boasts name to
cOnjure with in the fashion world has
just brought forth this big-hips-small-
waistline in bridal gown Of heavy
ivory satin. A heavy wire at the hips
swells the dimensions of the frOck

SEPARATE SKIRT FOR WINTER
Garment Is in Demand Because of the
Popularity Of Sweaters and
Short Fur Coats.

Sweaters and short fur coats both
make a demand for separate skirts.
Therefore, these skirts are likely to
be worn through the winter, both in
fancy plaid woOlens and in the regu-
lation navy blue serge. Wool jersey
is another favorite material for the
separate skirt.
The vogue of heavy weight material
for skirts is largely on account of the
shorter coats that promise to be used
this winter. and that call for more
protection than was glveh by the sat
ms and silk materials used for wear
under the long coat.
Apart from plaits, embroidery and
stitching are few favored forms of
trimming. Where the skirt is made
mp plain, band of some kind of en-
broidery is used around the bottom.
Gray wool embroidery on navy blue
serge is well thought of and frequent
" seen. COlored cross stitching that
suggests broken plaid was used last
season and is still considered quite
good.

If You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
it is that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is PLAINTIFF article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says '4Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a
preparation I have sold for many years
and never hesitate TO recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has so large a
sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony Of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
kilmeTs Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
50 many people claim, that it fulills al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri-
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive a sample bottle of
Swamp Root by Parcels Post. Address
DR.: Klmer g. Co., Binghamton, N. Y,

paper. Large and medium size bottles

not selling the style eagerly. It is the
snug, simple princess line that will be
seen on special occasions.
These midnight gowns" are far
from being altogether somber, as their
dullness of hue is always contrasted
with some note of elaborate color.
Thus, one stunning model of heavy jet
velvet uses a huge carved ivory rose
of flame color as a corsage. Shoulder.
straps of flame velvet and long train
of flame tulle complete the costume
A really spectacular model is devel-
oped in white satin with corsage of
black and white chiffon, roses and train
of jet beads falling from the right
shoulder. These shoulder drops are
almost entirely supplanting the bona
fide train. The evening costume is
completed by a touch of both face and
hair powder to match the gown. Law
ender, rose, blue and green face pow
ders are as common for evening wear
as white. Flesh and gold powders are
used for the couture.
