Many Chic Belts Are
Among Spring Styles

Belts are assumed to presuppose
shirtwaists and the old-time waistline.
But these are now almost obsolete,
and a belt has become part of the
one-piece frock, to hold in ever so
slightly the straight coat dress,
chemise dress or coat dress. Some
most artistic belts have been fashioned
of leather, hand-painted and illumi-
mated. of elastic, beaded in a pattern
to represent the coat of serpent.
Other leather belts are stitched in
silks or woods, or studded with steel,
iet or colored china and glass beads.
Some are of silk, prettily embroidered,
some are all of beads in Oriental pat
terms. in cut-steel or rhinestones, while
the newest extravaganza, straw, en-
broidered with wooden flowers, is quite
the rage.

Attractive Overblouse
With Short Sleeves

Quite attractive for afternoon wear
ia an overblouse with short sleeves,
like the bertha cut in one with the
blouse. giving it the air of complete
frock. The edge Of the sleeves, two
hands of the embroidery down the
front and a girdle are all embroidered
with gold and green beads on the
beige crepe background.
Allover tucked blouses are also used,
tucls perpendicular and sometimes
edged with a picot; or, again, in the
same effect with ribbon sewed only at
one side, the idea copied probably from
: model gown very popular last sea-
son. Crimped ribbon-or, as the
French call it, crinated-is another
manner of trimming seen in the geor-
gette models

Skirts Shorter Than
Ever for Paris Women

Cables from Paris fashion openings
received by New York dress manufac-
turers confirms early season hints
that skirts are to be much shorter.
Some say the new skirts will be cut
barely below the knees"
A New York resident buyer with
an Office in Paris, said, however, that
American styles this spring will not
follow the French designs too closely.
Panel effects will make shorter skirts
necessary, he added, but the American
models will not be too extreme.

Pale Yellow and Green
Among Spring Color

Pale yellow, green in a wide range
of tones and all shades Of pink and
rose are the colors chosen again and
again for lovely frocks of chiffon that
as the season advances will supplant
the more formal velvets and brocades.
They possess a springtime fresh
ness and daintiness that is most ap-
pealing. Especially lovely are models
that exploit a clever combination of
two or three shades OF a single color.
One unusually beautiful frock has
three fiounces, each different tone
of rose.

and they alike fall for it. The range
of prices is very wide, beginning at
figures more modest than for any other
material of equal worth, and mounting

cheaper silks.

of salmon, halibut, haddock or cod.
Use the bones and head to make

mixed soup vegetables in kettle, lay
on them the fish and pour over the

Attractive Top Coat

There is something undeniably fas-
chatting about the black top coat of
sumptuous material which has for
it's only ornament a big coat of arms
in white embroidery on the left side
of the front. The sole ornament is
so quaint and so splashy that it Is ex-
tremely effective.

Swagger Stick Fashion

The swagger stick has taken new
lease of life and is seen with many
models in sports clothes and tailored
suits. 1t must be said that its pres
ent form suggests raison d'etre, for
it is not a foolish little club now,
with no apparent purpose but to hold
in the hand; it is quite the size of a
mans walking stick, and has at least
useful appearance.

we ought not to get books too
cheaply. No book, I believe, is ever
worth half so much to it's reader as
one that has been coveted for
year, and bought out Of saved half
pence, and perhaps day or two's
fasting. That's the way to get at
the cream of a book.-Ruskin.

Checks and plaids, or crossbar pat

fects that the mode approves and no
matter how fine they are, they are
amazingly accurate. Front fastenings

to one side and have diagonal front
line as in the coat pictured at the

are another characteristic Of the spring
styles; manufacturers look to in
genious designing and irreproachable

C. Mp. Employe Is
Injured When Pole
Breaks and Falls

Harry Dali of Brunswick was bad
ly bruised and shaken up yesterday
morning about 1880 o'clock when a
Central Maine Power Company's pole
on which he was working on High
street, Oakland. broke at the bot
tom and fell. pinning him beneath it.
At the same time the next pole. on
which another employee of the Central
Maine Power Company was work
ing, fell and the strain caused two
more poles to tumble, but no one else
was hurt.
Dali. as soon as he felt his pole
snap. neglected TO let go and slide
down. as did the other lineman. but
threw his arms around it and chung
until 1t bore him to the ground Is
feet below. He was rushed immedi-
ately to the Sisters hospital where
DIR. Boyer attended him. For a time
it was thought that he suffered a
fracture of the right hip and arm,
but an N-ray examination showed
that there We're no bones broken and
he will probably be out of the hos
pital in five or six days.
Mr.. Dali is well known in this CITY,
having been employed for some time
by the Central Maine Power Com
pany. The cause of the break in the
pole was thought to have been decay.
