It is evening for abovc- the-shoe-top gown, dawn for the ankle-brushing skirt. For this reversion rever-sion of taste no one is more grateful than I. The child-length dress was awkward. It was inartistic. It was immodest. May it be seen no more, and Jet the memory of it be as brief as itself. The lengthening skirt that has come with the lengthening days is In evidence evi-dence in the dark net dinner gown displayed on this page. A graceful frock of straight, slight, full folds it is, with the hroad, low neck that is the moment's mode, and the long, transparent sleeves that are favored by the smart this Spring. The broad neck line is finished with a band of iridescent trimming. The low girdle is of the same sparkling material. The three-piece walking suit in pfrtc tints has also the ankle-length skirt. The plaited sides of the long coat are among the novelties of the season. Plaiting Plait-ing is second only to lave as a new favorite in adornment. The belt of the coat and the high plaited collar of the embroidered net blouse are new notes. Reminiscent of the Russian vogue is the dark suit. The coat, has distinctly Russian lines, emphasized bv the sash belt. The cloth-covered buttons arc proof of the simplicity that is being practiced in the selection of costumes.
