women there to let the subject of the
great pageant have even the slight
est influence on their own mode. /;
Meantime many Of the dressmakers
have set out quite determinedly to
turn the trend of fashion in the direc-
tion of the fuller skirt. They have
succeeded in a measure, for the wide
skirts-so wide as to be called crino-
lines-were conspicuously worn at
the French races. though here again
1t was not usually the conservative,
aristocratic wing who wore them.
For the dressmaker this rivalry be-
tween the straight-line chemiss frock
that has remained SO long in fashion
and the new bouffant frocks Is a very
serious one. 1t Is matter Of busi-
ness success He Is frankly timid Of
the chemise frock. He has done
everything to give 1t that novelty
which is necessary to make women
buy new frocks from season to sea-
son. He has exhausted his resources
so far as this chemise frock is con-
cerned. He looks upon the full
skirted model--velasQuez. Louis XIV,

ing. Now that women wear earrings
and bracelets when they play tennis
and women of reproachable taste
really dot is not so easy to make
your generalizations.
Some beautiful Spanish women have
set the fashion in London of wearing
jewelry in the day time. but avoiding
it in the evening-or at least reduc-
ing it to a single string of pearls
or a pair of striking earrings. And
there are skinned brunettes in
this country who would add tenfofd
TO their good looks if they followed
suit. If, however, you choose to wear
earrings that touch your shoulders
and enough wristlets and bracelets
and armlets to delight the eye of
Hottentot you may do so with prece-
dent quite as good. 1t is barely pos
sible that for the earrings that you
have worn in the afternoon you will
want TO substitute others that will
appear TO better advantage by can
die light.
If you choose to have a nine-tiered
tulle frock as one of your new even
ing frocks, you will at least have
the satisfaction that they are con-
sidered smart-smart, but difficult,
because tulle is of all perishable ma
terials quite the most perishable.
Tulle has suddenly come into promi-
nence as a fabric for evening frocks

and presses" in the days when the
Louis ruled in France and the
Georges ruled in England.
For evening clothes the bouffant
frock has been with us for several
seasons. There Is nothing especially
new about 1t. The mere fact that 1t
continues to linger after several
seasons seems to some persons to in
dicate that it will eventually win out.
Quite new, however. is the short coat
for afternoon or evening made to
wear with bouffant skirts, suggestive
OF 1850 or thereabouts. II makes use
of circular flare that rises slightly
at the front. 4 coat of this sort
made OF white rabbit is finished with
wide cuffs and enormous collar of
white fox.
The usual wrap to wear with the
bouffant frock is. of course, a cape
or shawl, and shawls are worn now
at some of the smart resorts even in
the afternoon. From some quarters
comes the report of the abandonment
of the cape entirely. save for very
short capes, but there are enough
wraps of the cape sort to make the
fashion good at least six months
more. But the cape to be worn over
the full skirt must have much full
ness. 1t must be circular or made
with pronounced flare

hears several different languages
spoken. The Finnish which is grow
ing more and more popular, was a
barbarous tongue when the Russians
took possession of the country in
1909, the higher classes then using
the Swedish. But soon after that
the Swedish scholars in Helsingfors
began to study the Finnish and to
collect the folklore. Since then the
Finnish language has become more
widely known and it is now crowding
the Swedish to the wall. There are
now ia newspapers published in
Finnish and only about 100 in
Swedish. There were formerly seven
newspapers which printed the Fin
nish and Swedish in parallel columns.
In the University of Helsingfors
theer are three academic languages.
Finnish, Swedish and Latin. The
street names are printed In the two
languages and public documents are
used in both tongues. Helsingfors
has the largest book store north of
the Baltic and every town OF size
sells English books. Our best fiction
is translated almost as soon as it ap-
pears and one can buy the latest for
eign books in the stores.

ITELSINGFORS is a city of fine
i i stores, banks and other financial
establishments. It's business build
ings are usually of granite, of four
or five stories, and some of them
have such elaborate architecture as
to be almost barbaric. There are
many American goods sold. and like
the cities of Sweden and Norway, the
town has an American air. There
are large banks. some more than
eighty years old. There is a ma
tionaI bank which issues the Finnish
into the billions, but which has a
more or less stable value. There are
savings banks almost everywhere,
and every parish has one. The de-
positors in such banks now number
about one for each family OF the re-
public.
An interesting feature of business
is the cooperative stores of which
there are 120 in Helsingfors alone,
65 per cent OF their members being
laboring people. They pay the regu-
lar prices but get percentage on all
that they buy. Cooperative stores
are to be found in every part of the
country.
In cooperation Finland is pattern
ing after Denmark. Not only the
farmers but the town people have
their cooperative societies. The
farmers have 500 cooperative dairies
and 400 clubs for the purchasing of
farm machinery and tools. There
are more than TOO egg-selling soci-
cites and the farmers are more and
more every day eliminating the mid
die man. They are selling their own
products both at home and abroad
and are growing rich by it. This
same movement is being pushed in
all Scandinavia, and understand IT

U EAVING the market, we take a
look at the harbor Helsingfors
Is built on a peninsula running out into
the sea, and the bay is guarded by
islands. We passed the red granite
walls of the old fortress of Sveaborg
on the island of the same name, as
we came in, and anchored under the
shadow of a magnificent Russian
church. with crosses and domes,
standing on a rock perhaps one hun
dred feet above the edge of the water.
On one island nearby we could see
the pavilion of the yacht club. and on
another a popular restaurant. open to
the winds and waves. On the shore
rising above the houses is Obeserva-
tory hill. surrounded by a luxuriant
park. and there are other parks here
and there. The town has some great
churches, a Greek Catholic cathedral,
a university with several thousand
students. and public and private
schools of every description.
The common school system was in
troduced into Finland more than sew
enty-five years ago. and at the time
of our revolution the Firms passed a
law that no one could be married un-
til he had learned Luther's catechism
At that time parents who did not
teach their children to read were fined,
and when Peter the Great ravaged the
country the fugitives who fed to thu
woods carved the alphabet on their
dinner tables and thus taught their

they are almost equally as good

miles from a school house and there
are peoples high schools in all
farming districts. Nearly every town
has it's associations of the young peo-
pie who study travel and history, and
every locality has its choral society
and athletic association.
Most of the school houses have
gymnastio halls and some of the
newer ones have shower baths. The
government prepares all the plans for
the school buildings and the country
schools have gardens for teachers and
pupils. Many of the children along
the lakes go to school upon skates,
and the school houses have places for
snowshoes and bicycles. Nearly
every home has a telephone and the

Your Home and
You
BY HELEN KENDALL.
The Inviting Stems.

TO my mind the steps leading up to
the entrance OF any house should be
like welcoming hands extended to ar
riving visitors. steps should not be
mere conveniences. They should have
an air of easy fnformality and CANA
raderie. Have you ever seen a group
Of laughing, chattering young people
leave the large porch chairs and tum-
bic into bunch on the steps? Some
on the upper step, others down a peg
or Two, all with their hands clasped
round their knees, humming, chatting,
carefree.
So the wise house-mother will fur
nish her steps as prettily and invit-
ingly as she does her living room or
guest chamber. The steps must 81
lently invite the passing neighbor TO
come in and drop down for a few mo-
ments and make passers-by wish
they. too. were friends of the people
behind the steps
The secret OF pleasant summer steps
lies, OF course, in the cushions used.
They must be plentiful, bright and oh.
so plump No thin. scrawny cushions
permitted, and none of these hard
boiled straw mats, either. They'll
have to be brought in at night. OF
course, or when 1t rains. but mean
while they should bask on the steps
looking as comfortable as IL they
were of eiderdown.
They must not be Of eiderdown,
| however. The pillows for steps must
be stout, durable and appropriate to
their lowly position in life. No silk.
satin or pale colored cretonnes will
do. A soft ratine or terry cloth is
about the best material l know of for
this purpose. 1t isn't harsh like can
vas or similar heavy fabrics. and It
comes in beautiful patterns and fast
colors. Stuffed with plenty of cotton
batting or mattress wool. these cush-
ions will stand the hardest of wear
and tossing about.
Make them of engagingly different
shapes-oblong pillows with tassels

bathhouses, public and private, and
every farm in the country has its own
little hut, made OF logs. stone or turf,
where. all of the family go summer
and winter to steam out the dirt. In
the remote districts 1t is said they all
bathe together. but as q rule each sex
has its own hour for the ceremony.
The bathhouse is a national insti-
tuition. It is usually heated by q stove
or oven, which Is at one side of the
room. Each house has small window
and door and wooden platforms run all
round the wall. After the wood fire
has been lighted and allowed to burn
down to Goals. water is poured on and
the room soon becomes full of
steam. In the meanwhile bathers have
come in and disposed themselves on
the shelves. They are naked. and they
enjoy the staam, getting down now
