he send a description of himself-age,
weight, height, complexion, what
property he possessed and whether he
had been married and if so, how many
times. In due course of time she re-
ceived an answer which was in part
as follows: "Ine 54.6 foot tawl, way

HATS ARE OF MANY COL0RS
and Variety Of Smart Won-
ans Toilet.

The wide range of tint: offered in
this season of colors adds to the
charm and variety Of the smart wonl-
ans toilet, but 1t also necessitates o
happy eye for color In choosing the
hat to top ones smartest spring cos
tune. This delicate sense OF coloring
may be called into play to select from
an assortment of queer browns and
blues, yellows. reds and green's. the
tone which will blend to perfection
with the suit or frock in question. For
many of til tints offered are more or
less "queer" variations Of the good old
fashioned colors which wer- their fore
runners. There are delicate blues,
ranging from periwinkle through Or
child to the palest sky tints; yellow in
which one may favor the new dent de
lion, or swing ones fnncy from the
most brilliant of burnt orange to the
palest Of canary tints.
The spring tendency for fabrics of
higher luster has found stanch ally
in the new sport satins which were
given place of prominence at New
York's spring fashion show. Immeih
ately after this event. windows on the

CORSET OF TODAY
No Indication of the WaistIine
Becoming Smaller.
Prevalent style In France Is Extreme.
~ Low, Not Very Long and
Lightly 6oned.

The evolution Of the corset Is ex-
:remely interesting, observes u writer
n the New York Tribune. Its Ameri-
Eau history dates back to the days Of
The Pilgrims. when the first article Of
his character was made In this coun-
try. These God-fearlng people wove
he material by hand, leaving it In It's
1atural gray state. To bone the cor
set they used whalebone, which they
sewed in by hand-and this garment
was not lightly boned as 1t Is In these
lays. Tie whalebones were placed so
close to one another that one row of
stitching supported bone ut either
side Of 1t.
Unlike the corset of today, this
primitive one covered the body from
the waistline upward, leaving the hips
practically unprotected. Reaching
from ones chest to waist. It gradually
diminished In size toward the latter
point, where it again widened slightly,
ending not more thnn two inches be-
low the waistline. The top and bot
tom edges were finished with Il white
leather binding.
During recent years-clothes having
taken to straight lines-many women
Of both France and America have
worn either no corset at all or one
quite lightly boned. Gradually, now
ever. they are beginning to perceive
the need of some support, however
slight 1t may be. Particularly Is this

the originator of the corsetless mode.

such as flame over beige, flesh or gold.
Something of the fascination of the

felt in tile lace cape or coat worn
