Mourning Should Not Be
DESTINATIONS.

Every one who has noticed chang
ing customs Of recent years must
have noticed-and doubtless with re-
lief-the passing Of the fashion for
ostentatious mourning. This is espe-
cialiy true in this country, where the
feeling has gone so far against the
mourning that attracts much atten-
ton that tits quite apt to bring down
unpleasant criticism. We somehow
doubt the sincerity Of the widow who
makes herself striking figure by
reason OF her heavy tweeds.
The custom. Of making our furni-
ture and interior decorations take on
the colors of woe is, of course, quite
passed. Once people who could afford
to changed their upholstery and their
curtains as well as the livery of their
servants when they mourned the
death OF members of their family.
When the Dauphin OF France died in
l76S his wife was not only content
to have all the draperies hung in
gray, which was the custom of the
princesses of the court at that time,
but she had innumerable portraits of
her departed husband painted, show
ing him with pale and haggard ap-
pearance, hung at various places in
her apartments, and each one was
framed with heavy draperies of gray.
And now there are some people
who even question the custom Of hav-
ing personal cards bordered in black
during mourning. Generally where
they are used the widest borders are
avoided, and widows in first mourn
ing select the medium border. Black
bordered note paper is certainly not
50 much used as it was once, as many
persons prefer to use at this time .

taste At auy time.

cuffs are in two sections. the one in
front being much shorter than that
OF the back SO that the silk lining
shows clearly.
Observation Of the sleeves OF the
newer costumes shows that the trend
toward elaborate ones, started in the
spring. is far from abating. Rather.
1t is increasing. This applies chiefly
to daytime and informal evening
dresses for formal evening frocks are
still sleeveless or nearly so. All other
sleeves are long and often OF an en-
tirely different material from that Of
the dress. In wraps and coats they
are volaminous. in suits they are usu-
ally close fitting, at least. at the top.
with often an undersleeve, and IN day
dresses they are anything and every
thing that is different.
One designer has fashioned a
bertha-like cape to one Of her cloth
day gowns that continues into long
sleeves that completely cover the
hand. These sleeves are fairly simple
TO make. The cape turns over across
the arm and at the unders!de the
front edge is caught at the elbow to
the cape part. The outer edge is I'm.
ished with a dull gold picot.
Draped Types
Many other sleeves are continue

gown or else sweep on into some en-.
tirely different feature. The French
designers. particularly. feature this
method, LeLong, Worth, Renee and
hosts OF others, start their sleeves as
sleeves, only to make them trail off
into sinuous draperies, graceful sashes
or sweeping trains, or they permit a

CORSETING THE NEW MODES

knowledged. Is triumph over the

corset was anathema. now urge that

every woman.
Some Of the newer corsets have the
nerest suggestion OF a curve at the
back Of the hips and there is less
demand for the elastic corset, which
Is taken to mean that the elastic type
does not provide sufficient restriction
for the new draperies

curve at the bottom or the back, a
tendency to slightly higher back.
and that walstlines are fitted in a
tribe with tapering lines below. All
OF these features tend to accentuate

In Paris no woman thinks Of going

corset. American women still hold

The gray Georgette sleeve was

the elbow After this. the operation
was repeated, with a Georgette in
