Such girdles are sold separately if
a customer so desires. AS the dresses
are so simple and the girdles so elab-
crate. an order is often given for a
girdle alone, the intention being to
use it on frocks which the purchaser
already has.
Another idea borrowed from the
Renaissance period is the padded cir
die of embroidered silk. These are
often in materials matching the dress
or of a handsome brOcade. The padded

Paris.
ribs of metal set together ingeniously
to make the belt flexible. These are
in steel, old silver and dull gold fin
ish. Sometimes steel scales are COM
bined with large cabOchons Of jet.
Every imaginable design is used for
heavy beaded girdles both in color
and in jet. These often finish with
long fringelile ornaments and tassels
of beads and silk. the tassel orna-
ments often recalling Chinese effects.
Tin and Steel Adorn New Clothes.
Leather ornaments with steel nail
heads appear on the new girdIes.
I.anvin uses colored feathers studded
with jet and steel nailheads on very
dressy frocks, the girdles sometimes
eliminating in an ornament.
Another very interesting girdle eff
feet introduced by Lanvin is obtained
by the use of a thick girdle of fur
which passes through a puff of silk
and holds the apron drapery of an
afternoon dress.
Many strange things have been done
in the name of fashion, and almost

at one time or another There have
been clothes of paper and clothes Of

er of the present day to make wearing
apparel from tin and steel. Tin Is
in high favor and has met with a ready
acceptance, judging by the amount Of
it worn.
It was the Paris creators who first
thought of using this metal. Many
of this winters French hats show
tin trimming in the form of large
leaves with the metal slashed to rep
resent veining, Sometimes a single
,lear of this sort is used on simple

maker who favors such trimming.

Steel fringes are used profuseIy in
the new girdles. Strings of glistening
steel beads are formed into fringes
Fringes of jet beads are also used.
Some of these girdles are very close

nchers. They give the appearance Of

Lanvin uses little shells massed on
frames TO make girdles which are wide

The shell idea is one she has also
carried out in dress trimmings and
it. therefore. may be said to be dis
tinctly a Lanvin feature.

All Are Early at Work.

The day begins early for everybody
in Belgium, and particularly with the
wage-earners. More than half Of Bel
GUMS population lives outside the
towns, and they are up at their work
before the gray dawn is dispersed by
the lights of hundreds of cottages
may be seen vying with the stars as
they twinkle forth their message of
households bestirring.
In the towns and cities the people
are downtown almost as early as their
neighbors across the English Chan
mel are at breakfast They get their
midday meal around noon, and they
go home for it, since remarkably low
tramway fares make this possible. So
it is that, instead of a mug of milk
and a sandwich at some quick lunch,
many Belgian burgher shuts up shop
at u. goes home to his largest meal
of the day, eats it leisurely, and re-
turns downtown by 2 o'clock.
The Belgian government has always

the wage-earner and the man of small
affairs, and has made it possible for
them to buy homes on easy terms.
The national savings bank is empow-
cred to make loans to householders
for buying or building homes, and to
insure their lives, so that in the event
of death the family will not lose its
equity in the place, and can use the
insurance to wipe off the debt.
Taxes were made exceedingly low
on small property owned by those,
who tenant it.
The entire western portion of the
country resembles one vast market
garden. There are no fences marking
the boundaries of the many small
tracts, but rather little trenches that
separate one farmers place from the
others. Tens of thousands of acres
of the toughest kind of land have
beer converted into splendid trucking
gardens by western Belgians. In 1889
there was a wild stretch of land west
of the Scheldt river called the Pays
de Waes, uncultivated and uninhabi-
ted. To-day it is one of the most fertile
sections of this remarkable country,
supporting 500 people to the square
mile, with truck farming as it's prin-
cipal industry.

More Change in Formal Attire
Than in Other Clothes.
Skirts Longer and Draped Most Ex-
traordinarily - TWO Opposing
Styles to Choose From.

Evening dress is just beginning to
appear and the few new examples now
to be seen do nothing so much as whet
our appetites for something more.
There is more change about formal
dressing, perhaps, than about any
other type of clothes. The skirts are
longer Gin fact some of them are very
lOng) and they are draped most eX-
traordinarily. Drapings on the bod
ices, drapings on the skirts, and even
draplngs on the sleeves, when there
are sleeves, are the order of the day.
With two totally opposing styles in
evening attire to choose from, the
woman who is looking forward to
dressing for many evening occasions
has fortune with her She can be the
full-skirted, befrilled type of person,
or she can be the sort who has draped
and fitted velvets following closely the
lines of her figure. Some there are
who can change easily from one style
to another, and there are those who
must stick to either one assiduously.
The full-skirted evening gowns are
accomplished in many and varying
ways. There are those made to keep
their bOuffant lines by means of ac-
tual supports in the way of cleverly
hidden bOnings. Then there are others
made of silks so stiff that. Of their
own free will and accord, they keep
the puffy lines that are so necessary.
Others are done by means of many
layers of chiffon in very full lines,
posed over stiff taffetas, that give
them their fail foundation, and never
appear on the scene as a part of the
actual dress.
One kind of evening dress seems so
filmy that it would blow away with a

most interesting of her new girdles

French, and only 10 per cent of the
people can speak both. The Flemish
influence never crossed the Meuse riv-
er toward the east, and the WalloOn
influence reached but a short distance
toward the west from that beautiful
valley. The line of demarcation be-
tween the two peoples is rather sharp
ly marked.
There is a physical difference be-
tween the Walloons of eastern Bel
GUM and the Flemings Of western
Belgium, just as there is a difference
of tongue and stock. The WalloOns
are of stouter build and greater stat
ure, and are dark where the Flemings
are fair, thus bespeaking the com
mingling of Spanish blood. On the
other hand the Flemings are the more
Industrious of the two peoples, and
theirNwomen are said to be able to pre-
pare the best meals out of the fewest
things of almost any race in the world.
Living was cheap in pre-war Bel
GUM. The people had thoroughly
mastered the art of intensive farming,
and the land, before the great war
descended upon the country with its
heel of iron blossomed with the milk
and honey of plenty. Being cOntig-
uous to the North sea fishing grounds,
it has always possessed a liberal sup
ply of fish. which is a staple article
of diet with the people.
If living was cheap in Belgium it
was no cheaper than conditions called
for, because wages certainly were low.
Many lace-workers, making the eX-
quisite laces that bear the Belgium
mark, worked from the rising to the
setting of the sun for five dollars a
week. 1t is said that the average wage
of all the breadwinners of the country
apprOximated only $165 a year.
The children work after they are
twelve, and all hands in a working
mans family must keep busy in order
that no mouth shall go hungry. Even
at this it requires, even in normal
times, the utmost frugality to make the
buckle of income meet the tongue of
outgo. So must the Belgian house
wife be an excellent manager. The
Belgian wage-earning classes eat but
little animal food, and most of that
is fish.
