best to compromise
duration of full skirt style
IS UNCERTAIN.
Wisest Course Is to Have Them Made
of Moderate Width With a Lean
ing Toward Fullness—Alter
ing Last Year's Gowns.
In going over the season’s ward
robe It Is the best to stake one’s
chances on the wide skirt. staying
with us until July or August. There
me dressmakers who are prophets,
and who say that we shall probably
wear the full skirt for two or three
years at least. There are others who
say it will be out of fashion by mid
summer. The only way to be even
partly safe is to compromise on mod
erate width with a leaning toward
4 fullness.
If your last summer skirts l had
’ long tunics, the remedy is easy. That
truism has been repeated over and
again for two months. The added fact
that the new skirts, both plaited and
circular, have wide bands of a differ
ent fabric and sometimes of a dif
ferent color at the hem, gives one
■ even more hope for successful altera
tion..
Plaiting is in high demand and the
knife-plaited tunic, therefore, which
was considered sb an unfashionable
garmdnt, can be made into a skirt
by the addition of a deep band. It
may be of satin if the skirt is of
cloth, or cloth if the skirt is of Bilk.
No one objects to these combinations
uowadays.
Then there is the question of,the
long Bleeve to be answered. Suppose
the gowns of last year, also the coatB,
had three-quarter sleeves—what then?
Fortunately, fashion has brought
about the use of double sleeves. The
upper part is opaque, the lower part
transparent; therefore one can add.
chiffon or muslin, net or lace to a
short sleeve and bring it down to the
wrist. These lower sleeves are very
often full as well as transparent,' and
they are finished at the wrist with a
velvet bracelet and a narrow ruffle.
All these details are good to remem-

blouse was of white satin attached

Hour for Stout Women.
Now is the time for the stout worn

has come at last. No longer will she
have to look on in helpless envy

watch the conquest of the beach car

There has come about an odd com

ivory rings over the little bag, and
you have an old-fashioned purse just
like grandmother used for her pen
nies, but which you will use to hold
in one end a powder puff, very, dimin
utive, but quite adequate, and in the
other end a mirror of the same di
mensions. This little vanity bag can
be: carried out ?n the shades of the
favorite evening gown, and makes a
dainty and in'conspicuous accessory
for the carrying of the evening’s am
munition. The second puff is for the.
dressing table, and is in the shape'-of
a bisque ballerina, with voluminous
maline skirts, Who'poises lightly atop
of a glass powder jar. The puff is at
tached in some mysterious manner to
the little bisque body; and the ma-
line skirts act as a pretty ornament
and a practical cover for the powder
beneath. They can easily be renewed
from time to time as they become
soiled or mussed.
Damask Lunch Cloths.,
Some of Che newest lunch cloths
are being shown of embroidered
damask. The material itself is un
figured, but.the. embroidery is usually
elaborate. A vory silky mercerized
cotton is employed for working out
the design, and this, with the soft
sheen of the- damask, makes a very
rich cloth almost too pretty'for table
use. These cloths are more practical
when made in the size of a large cen
terpiece/ for then the individual plate
and tumbler dollieB of plain lace-
edged damask can be UBed to protect
the polished table surface and are
more easily laundered than the heav
ily embroidered co.ver.

What Causes Tuberculosis.
Dr. John North of Toledo, O., is
working on the theory that tubercu
losis may bo due to a lack of lime
in the system, as he says that while
tubercular germs are everywhere, they
only thrive in ripe soil and just what
is. lacking in persons subject to tubev-
cular trouble gives food for thought.
He says that there is less- tubor-
Culosis among people living in arid re
gions, and plants in such places have
more lime in their composition than
those growing in humid regions.
