URGENT NEED FOR A NAME
a
If the Bisected Skirt Is to Be Gen
erally Worn Let It Have Femi
nine Appellation.
It is thought by some in Germany
that the name “harem skirt” or more
horrible still “trouser skirt” is the
only thing that prevents the spread
and general use of this much talked of
article of wearing apparel. So these
same people have offered a prize for
the best names and have hit up “Ama
zon” and “cavalier” skirt as a result,
and hope by keeping these more allur
ing titles before the feminine public to
popularize the garment. Not that it
needs so much to be popularized, they
say. The leading German shops ad
vertise it in bewildering variety, and
privately claim that orders are pour
ing in to a degree which shows that,
like other extreme modes gone be
fore, the trousers —er, that is, the
cavalier skirt —is sure to conquer in
the end. But if the more timid fol
lower of fashion buys one, and keeps
it hanging in her closet to gaze upon
with awe and admiration, yet is afraid
to wear a “trouser” skirt upon the
street, by all means let us christen it
Iwith something softer and more femi
nine.

/ This pretty frock is of gray blue
cashmere embroidered in the same
shade. The waist is finished across the
front with a band of maderia embroid
ery on linen, of which the shoulder
collar is also made.
This last is placed over a collar
of black satin, bands of which finish
the silk cord matching the gown forms
the girdle.
embroidered moire—three Persian
palm leaves bordered with pearls being
the chief decoration. The fringe—and

DRESSES FOR EVENING WEAR
Slight Cha ;in Styles Will Be Noted
in the Coming Season’s
Garments.
An unusually decollete neck finish,
extremely short sleeves and an irregu
lar-shaped train inclined to shortness
are features having a bearing on the
new evening gowns for fall and win
ter. Lace plays a large part, both as
a foundation material and for trim
ming purposes, every variety being
used, no matter what the texture or
pattern. Allover designs or robe
gowns are used as an underbody, in
which case the filmy draperies par
also used for draping over soft fin
tially conceal the pattern. They are
ished silks, crepes and satins, and in
these instances usually are cut in one
with the waist. Some of the newest
models show the allover lace exten
sion below the waist line in cutawaj’
coat effect, Citoyenne frill or peplum.
In some instances the pointed effect
is made in the front, with tapering
lines cutting off to the waist in the
back. —Dry Goods Economist.
Detachable Flower.
It must have been the girl of small
allowance who invented the detach
able flower for her hat. Trimming
the winter’s chapeaux is so simple
that it is an easy matter to whisk
off one flower and put on another to
match the next costume worn.
Velvet poinsettias are a favorite
flow'er on winter hats for those who
can stand the vivid red so close to the
face.
Another popular flower is huge vel
vet roses in rich dull tones. A new
idea is to outline the edges of these
roses with tiny beads to correspond
to the color of the costume worn.
Instead of sewing on the detach
able roses each time, they are pro
vided with tiny safety pins on the
under side, which are quickly adjusted
to the trimming.
Making a Pillow Cover Fit.
The cover of a sofa pillow can be
made to fit well by the following little
trick: After sewing up three sides
but before turning the cover right side
out, tack the two finished corners of
the case securely to two corners of
the pillow. Turn the case over the
pillow. Sew up the fourth side for an
inch or two at each end. Tack these
two corners to the corresponding cor
ners of the cushion. Finish as usual.
This keeps the pillow from pulling
and sagging away from the cover.—
Houskeeper.
Large Revers Popular.
The use of the large collar is no
doubt responsible for the popularity
of the large revers. Some are lang
and narrow, coming down below the
waist line. Others are square and a
few round.
In a certain number of cases the
coats are made with a single revei
on one side and double revers are
seen in some instances. The long
shawl collars are again meeting wit*

Doubtful and Humiliated Hubby Now
Probably Believes Wife Can

“The late William Rotch Wister,

also be sai'd to have been a godfather
of the feminist movement,” said a
woman writer at the Acorn club in
Philadelphia.
“Mr. Wister,” she continued,” abomi

his wife like a child, refusing to take
her into his confidence. I once heard
Mr. Wister tell a story about a Ger
mantown man of that sort.
"The man came back from a busi
ness meeting wherein the future wel
fare of himself and his family was
vitally involved, but he declined to
tell his wife what had been the meet
ing’s outcome.
“ ‘Oh, no,’ he sneered, 'I can’t tell
you anything. You’d repeat it if I did.
You, being a woman, are constitution
ally unable to keep a secret.’
“But the wife, w-ith a quiet smile,
retorted: ‘George, did I ever tell the
secret of how you were led astray
that summer the church conference
met in Chicago and got arrested in a
saloon for biting off the bartender’s
ear?’ ”

Ruskin Pitied Americans.
It is not only the half million
bricks of Tattershall that have been
numbered for trans-shipment across
the Atlantic. Ruskin, when he was a
boy, pitied the Americans for being
so unhappy as to live in a country
that has no castles. They will have a !
castle now, and no nation likes to I
be pitied. But the other importation,
made by Mrs. Gardner as an addition
to her Italian villa near Boston, was
that of an entire chapel as it stands,
with all its interior furnishings, even
to the half-burned candles in the al
tar. The monks who served the
chapel had been scattered by the
strong hand of the law, and the
building was to be devoted to the
pick ax. The courageous American
lady had it packed up in a Venetian
hill country, where it stood, and car
ried down piecemeal and embarked. —

BABY’S TERRIBLE SUFFERING
| “When my baby was six months old,
’ his body was completely covered with
1 large sores that seemed to itch and
burn, and cause terrible suffering.
The eruption began in pimples which
would open and run, making large
sores. His hair came out and finger
nails fell off, and the sores were over
the entire body, causing little or no
sleep for baby or myself. Great scabs
would come off when I removed his
shirt.
“We tried a great many remedies,
but nothing would help him, till a
friend Induced me to try the Cuticura
Soap and Ointment. I used the Cuti
cura Soap and Ointment but a short
time before I could see that he was
Improving, and in six<weeks’ time he
was entirely cured. He had suffered
about six weeks before we tried the
Cuticura Soap and Ointment, although
we had tried several other things, and
doctors, too. I think the Cuticura Rem
edies will do all that is claimed for
them, and a great deal more.”

Toasting the Teachers.
There was a meeting of the new
teachers and the old. It was a sort of
love feast, reception or whatever you
call it. Anyhow, all the teachers got
together and pretended they didn't
have a care in the world. After the
eats were et the symposiarch proposed
a toast:
“Long Live Our Teachers!”
It was drank enthusiastically. One
of the new teachers was called on to
respond. He modestly accepted. His
answer was:
"What on?”
Torture.
“I wonder how Tantalus felt,” said
the student of the classics.
"Probably,” replied Colonel Stilwell,
“like a thirsty Maine man listening
