NEW GOWNS LOOK LIKE COAT OF MAIL
Dolly Sisters Start Parisian Vogue; Wear Tight-Laced
 Leathern BOdices

 Correspondent,
 Paris, Dec. 11-There is much of the coat-of-man appearance about the gowns made of some of the un- usual new fabrics.
 The Dolly sisters started the ball rolling in Deauvi1le by wearing bodices and slightly full skirts of a new kind of leather made up for them. It is a twin sister to alumt- mum but as supple as velvet, and 1t neither cracks nor breaks.
 Curious bodices without any dec oration are made of this new fabric, with which are worn fancy belts of great width.
 A1uminum-colored leather is being used to make jumped jackets for cold days and motoring. It is metallic looking but without the hardness of metal. Bits of it trim many gar ments, producing the coat-of-mail eff feet. On many others are small ruby glass rounds and furnished metal discs like mirrors.
 A sensational and amusing variety of this fabric is called the Night Club,' presenting a series of dancing women in scanty attire and men, young and old, looking on. Whole gowns cannot be made of it, but doubtless there will be many a cor sage.

 London, Dec. I1.-Men should be made to keep marriage engagements; women ought to retain the legal right of bringing suit for breach of promise in case of default, according to Mar jorie Bowen, famous novelist.
 Justice McCardie,'' she says, thinks that a man should have the right to break off an engagement of marriage when he has changed his mind. He believes that marriages resulting from threats of breach of promise actions are likely to result in tnf1dehty and lifelong misery. /
 This is the mans viewpoint, and very right and proper 1t seems at first glance. What can be more inm oldest, according to our preconceived Ideas of womanhood, than that she should try to force a man to marry her who Is reluctant to do so?
 No Longer Demure.
 But it is forgotten that woman is no longer a sheltered, protected, ig- norant being whose sole asset is her shrinking tirnidity and whose sole value lies in the fact that she Is un- spotted from the world. Nowadays she has to fight her own battles learn her own living and generally look aft CT herself.

Of such mutual benefit both to you and to us,
that we are going to repeat it.
This will be welcome news to you, we hope,
especially to those who have been urging us
to put on another sale for some time.
We call it a "Monday Special Sale"-even
though it will last more than one day-be-
cause it is a direct outgrowth of our famous
Monday Special Sales in Honolulu, and mod
eled along the same lines.
In other words, we are giving you Maui
folk the same opportunity to secure the splen-
did values that we offer our Honolulu patrons
every Monday in the year.
However, since we are making the effort
to bring the sale to you, which means time
and money, we find it advisable to continue it
more than one day. Those who cannot come
