Bat these that one hears of present-da- y (ritlclsmi fashions may be converted Into praise of the good judgment of our designer who, through tbe last few years, nave come to realize that the day when sensational upheavals In dress could be achieved has, passed. Good taste in dress has developed to such an extent that the bizarre snd the really novel receive but an Tbe percentIndifferent reception. age of smartly dressed women Is ever on the Increase, land the number of those who desire to be conspicuous constantly decreasing..' Those who make clothes have not pursued the line of least resistance. Close study of their modes shows that lies a under apparent simplicity clever complication of cut. Straight Skirt Swathes Hips. There are innumerable cl ver ways Placed at the norma, waistline and ending in a huge rosette of dark blue Ilk to match the underdress, which la revealed through the front opening In tbe skirt. ' Velvet and Mateiaase. Gray is still a favorite shade for evening coats. The season was rather advanced last winter when gray evening coats first made their appearance, so It is but natural that this shade should be carried over to this winter. , A typical gray evening coat from Bernard, of Paris. Is known as Prince Errant. It is developed In gray velvet trimmed with bands of taupe fur. The sleeves and sides of the mantle are entirely of fur and there Is a huge fur collar. In addition to this lavish ornamentation there are silk and metal embroideries in the form of narrow bands extending the length of the coat on either side of the front and back and passing in a double row around the sleeves. Velvet Is a very important fabric for both afternoon and evening coats and hand of tbe master maker. The way in which tbe circular godet is Introduced Is an example of this. During the last few years there lias been a persistent endeavor to Introduce full skirts. Realizing that a fashion is a dressthing of slow development, makers have pressed this point in subtle and unobtrusive ways. They are still endeavoring to bring the full skirt forward, and It Is safe to predict that tbe success of the full skirt is assured, but its success will not be an immediate one. It will be two or three years before we will see it replace the much-likemodel of slimmer outline. One of the cleverest ideas which lias been widely taken up this season Is that of making the simple dress the basis of the three-piec- e suit by means of a skirt which is really nothing more than a straight piece of cloth wrapped around the body below the hips and fastened with a large button or buckle. The cloth skirt is usually open down the left side to reveal the underdress In the form of a panel. This costume Is completed by a short jacket which either matches the skirt or Is of a combination of the cloth and fur. In some instances the jacket Is made entirely of fur.

Ribbon Trims Simple Frock. The working of the material from which tbe frock is made into a trimming is not a new idea, but one that is exploited more than ever this season, and In a more interesting way than ever before. Kibbons, too, exactly matching the gown in color, also are much used for trimmings. Or, It might better be said, much ribbon is used, for it is nothing to use fifty or sixty yards of ribbon on one simple frock, such as a Henee Model, which is of a deep castor shade of crepe Mongol trimmed with narrow xactly matching faille ribbon of Tills model requires 125 shade. yards of the ribbon to make the design.

As soon as one style succeeded In becoming the accepted vogue the other gradually fought Its way to the front ranks of fashion until the first After became completely suppressed. another few months the pendulum would swing back again.

Gowns Must Be Molded to Carry Out the Personality of the Wearer te the Utmost Perhapa tbe most noticeable feature of tbe modern styles for women is gracefulness, observes a fashion authority in the New York Times. Their lines are simple and unadorned, they follow the figure with a beautiful perfection, they exhibit the art of the plus the attractiveness' of tbe woman with real harmony. Now, one of the best ways to express this Idea Is by means of the draped and fiOwing gown, with the draped and wrapped coat added as an outer covering. The dress may be as thin and as filmy as the wearer pleases. It may be unsatisfactory for wind and weather, but It must be, in every particular, good as to line and beautiful as to design. Its material must be soft and clinging, It must have that look of femininity so essential to the modern styles, and It must be designed to carry out the personality of Its wearer to the utmost. It may be made of silk, a light wool crepe or chiffon, as the matter of fabric Is left entirely to personal preference; but it must Include many widths of material with panels and drapings and curved lines galore. That Is the keyuote of the dress of the moment, and, whether It Is destined for wear during the morning hours, for afternoon or for dinner, it has about It something of this sort. It may be said that It Is much too light and ephemeral a thing to be worn for every day and for practical pur-- I poses, but In the light of modern de-- ! signing art It has taken on all of the characteristics demanded by the prac- tlcal woman and, at the same time, has retained everything in the way of line and grace dear to the heart of woman.

Taking care of the meat on the farm at killing time Is one, of the odd Jobs a farmer's wife has to get In somehow among the ordinary tasks of the day. The following letter received by the United States Department of Agriculture from the "wife of a dirt farmer," as she calls herself, gives some idea of what this work involves. This woman lives on a Kansas ranch of acres, many miles from a railroad, but her ho live is as modern in every respect and more convenient than many homes which are only a few feet from a railroad. This home was built for a particular family and the plan fits the life of the family." The routine of housekeeping is as simple as It could be oq a big ranch, and the furnishings are simple but most effective. The wife Is actively interested In farm bureau and especially la the browned, I slice It and pack Into Jars, adding salt and stock as usual and process.
