Nothing New.

FASHION is not a thing Of the mod
ern world. Fashion itself is not
new and it may not be doubted IL
there is any fashion. which Is new.
for there have been many fashions
that were revivals Of fashions so old
that human society had forgotten
them. In ancient Rome the women
painted and powdered their faces.
They had lip sticks. cream for anoint-
ing. whitening ana softening their
skin. and little mirrors which they
carried with them They fought
against crow's-feet and other lines in
the face and neck and they were law
ish in perfumes. Styles in hair
dressing were numerous and chang
ing in Babylonis. Chaldea. Egypt.
Greece, Rome and Carthage, and the
headdress OF one generation was out
of date in another generation.
Prof. H. H. Strauss. head OF the
department OF ancient languages in
the University OF Arkansas. has said
that in the matter Of hairdressing
Roman women even had an arrange
ment closely approaching the ear
puffs which the fiapper Of 1921 affects.
The most favored style seemed TO be
a formidable pompadour,r which was
varied, according to the prevailing
mode. with all kinds Of intricate and
elaborate arrangements OF curls. puffs
and braids. False hair was used TO a
large extent and there was no scruple
against using dye"
Roman women Of fashion. according
to Prof Strauss, had the same weak
, ness for Jewels which modern women
have. They had rings OF different
styles for summer and winter WEIR,
bracelets, armlets, earrings and van
fv. ra Sof Ns.fft 81
the rich Roman lady's shoes were or
namented with jewels. and she wore
hair nets made Of fine gold thread.
The same authority on the custom
Of classic Rome tells Of the political
power of the women. They did not
vote. but they made and unmade men
in the political life Of their country.
They campaigned for their favorite
candidates for Office and tablets have
been found engraved with the an
nouncement that such and such a
woman urged you to vote for this or
that candidate.

to get rid Of them at once.

she slept with high pillow and

In her reply she answered yes to both
questions. The deep lines across her

The skirt that touches or nearly

many months, as it surely Is now.

obviously smart in other respects.
Don't trust the little dressmaker by

4 II II
IRON coats worn this summer it Is
not difficult to tell which way the
wind will blow when real winds actually
do blow and we have to think OF coats in
earnest. The French are fonder than
we Of making coats of rough linens and
cottons suggesting the weave of woolen
coat materials. Some OF these have
been made in large plaids. sometimes OF
black and white, or blue and white, and
sometimes introducing stronger color.
These coats have followed the new mode
in the close, rather dropping armhole.
That is, the shoulder line droops at the
top: but there Is little tendency to have
II droop under the arm. Quite definitely
we are getting away from the coat
silhouette that bulges at the hips and
waist. A straight up and down Ine
takes its place. for the coats are for
the most belted in at rather low
waist line. blousing little. but not TO
exaggeration. Goats are and doubtless
will be fairly long. long enough to cover
the frock beneath. To be quite exact.
the French coats terminate two or three
inches above the ankles, and this Is a
line that will probably prevail through
out the season.
There is usually many slip twixt the
