Full skirts have come to stay for a while at least. - For all that, there is no reason why the woman with several long tunic skirts in her wardrobe should be discouraged,, for they have not been discarded by any . manner of means. A number of the large FrencJ: dressmakers are using them this year with great success and lnsucn a way that the ingenious- woman may ioi- low their examples with her old skirts. For instance, the new tunic, skirts are ! very long, - much 'longer man those of last year, showing scarcely more than one or two inches of the lower skiifbeneath: but to offset this, which looks rather difficult when your last season s - long , tunic . showed at least six inches of a lower skirt, yokes are very much the rage, and by at tahcing a tunic to a yoke it will be long enough to suit this season's re quirements. -,' ,; : . . ; ; ; . A Conservative Frock Developed m 1 Belgian Blue Rep. If the dress you wish to remodel is of silk, or a summer fabric, a very simple way of modernizing it is to add a lower section of two or more ruffles, according to the width of the luiiuss wm u vi vc mn ,.. wnwn buuws. saw- yoijt pretty taffeta dress the other day which (bad been made with a flaring tunic and a very tight lower skirt. The owner of the dress made the lower skirt wide bv inserting a triahtrular piece of the material into the back seam. Two ruffles she made 01 tr.e same taffeta, -with narrow hems ma chine . hemstitched. These , were placed onto the foundation skirt, and, of course, tne piecing was imaaen, ana Joined below the lone .. tunic. "The dresg" was very smart and looked as though . it might have been designed this season instead of last. ' With a little forethought and a care ful study of hew designs to be seen in the fashion magazines of fashion sections of the newspapers' many an old dross whose style is hopeless can be made into an up-to-date garment which: will give : a . great deal of pleasure.', -..In my first. Illustration I fcave shown a dress whose lines are simple enough to suit the most conservative in I of tastes and yet are so smart that . and belt are worn extensively with wherever the gown is seen the wearer . tailored suits..; t The small hats en would pass as a well-dressed member .tirely covered with flowers are used of society.- The model is developed in: for more elaborate occasions. tail Belgian blue ribbed material, light of ored hats are being trimmed with weight and suited to the skirt whose ribbons of large plaid, as well as in wide tucK give an enecx 01 ueep nem jn a nounceu skiii. . , . . - News from Paris says that gabar - dine continues to be very smart. It tias the qualities wnicn snouia en- dear it to the American mind, for it is serviceable and practical and comes in all the known shades, irom navy blue, black, white, to all the shades of tan and gray. ' Checks large and checks smell are being shown for the spring suits. In my illustration l nave snown a in little suit with a diagonal black-and-wWte check. The coat isrnade some what on Norfolk lines, with a six gored skirt cut the short ankle length, to which length all skirts should be cut to lhave the proper style this year. Instead of shoes, to be distinctly up to Paris styles, boots should be worn, with a walking dress of this character. Russian boots they are called; they button or lace up the sides and wrinkle in a mousquetaire fajhion. Empire lines are rihown in every thing. Suits are made Short waisted, with full peplums hanging from the belt Tailored frocks are made short waisted, with a wide or tmtow belt, which is attaohed on its upper line only and hangs free on its lower edge, giving a boxed effect. The evening dresses are made distinctly after the A Norfolk Suit in Black and White Check. eowns of the Emnress Joseohine's period, the waists just coming below the bust, and the skirt's longer and fuller than those of her time, but clinging gracefully to the figure. Striped taffeta skirts have jackets of satin matching some color in the stripe. Voile is used extensively, and usually trimmed with bands of taf feta. Sand-colored voile skirts ihave brown taffeta jackets. -v ;, .Lunette is an American-made fa brie which taXes the. place of the Georgette crepe, 'which . is made abroad and has 'become ery scarce since the war. : Whole dresses are made "of. it, especially for evening wear, and it is most attractive and more' durable than chiffon. There is ;an indestructible vojle which is very . much like - chiffon that is also used a great deal. It comts in all the beautiful old-fashioned designs, in Dolly Varden and Dresden designs, as well as in the large figured effects. .'Plaid fabrics are having a renewed vogue in Parisalthough they are con sidered a novelty rather than a staple fabric.-' Black is naturally very stylish, as would be expected, when one thinks that all France is in mourning. After hlnjlr nnnnoo wtlltji " Whit- AVnnintr coats are considered very fashionable; i also coats or white serge and gabar- rt,nR for tha DAnarntn f at. t. : R ack and white combined is also very cood and largely featured, and in its train purple and gray in fact, all the mourning and semiifnourning' colors are having a vogue which they will probably not have until another war. A Norfolk Suit of Black and White. New uniforms have been made for the French soldiers of a new shade of blue; naturally that means it is im mediately copied for costumes flor women. This color, together with-the khaki-colored field cloth, are used ex tensively for tailored costumes, es pecially if they follow. ever so slightly the tendency toward the military. Red, also a military color, but in a hew brick shade, is being used a great deal, while the national colors of Bel giumred, yellow and black are be ing combined again and ' aain into frocks and suits, --i Small hats are the Vogue in Paris. They are loved too well by the Paris ians to be auickly discarded. .' Trior j little hats of oilcloth to match cuffs oiacK and white faille ribbons, and give tnem a distinctly new look. t Large hats are slowly creeDine into view, and will no doubt hold the peo- pie ior summer, especially the old time shape trimmed with flowers and velvet ribbon streamers. ; DRAMATIC CHAT. .

London's underground railway sta-. tlons are decidedly different from what they were when, first built A writer in Loudon Society of May. 1863, describes Farringdon street statltn as resembling "a family vault on a largo scale, with a series of hip baths In troduced diagonally Into It for light snd ventilation. The hip baths are lined with glared tiles, snd to keep the resemblance to their prototype we find the leakage drained off at the end Into a vessel something like a soap dish. A dense fog filled the piece when I was there, and, as the people waiting for the trains were seen wandering up snd iown the platform, one might have Im agined them ghosts of thn great un washed condemned to linger In sight of those lavatories they neglected la tbelr mortal life.'' l ..
