Extendi Several Inches Below Normal Waistline Where It Is Caught In by Sash or Fur. One of the new and very popular blouse coatees, which extend a few Inches below the normnt waistline and which give a peculiarly youthful, 'hoiiuh rather boyish, appearance to the figure, Is shown In the sketch. These blouse coatees ure the roge of the hour, and Indoor blouses of thin materials are niade on very much the same lines. The model Illustrated was created by Paquin, and was com posed of rust-red wool velveteen, with a sush of skunk, and the same fur on the ends of the sleeves. It wus ex tremely rhlc. And quite uncommon, writes Malla de Villlers, Paris corre spondent. Several of our leading dressmakers are favoring this outline and it will certainly take a linn hold on popular taste. There is something cureless, and, as I have already said, boyish about The New Blouse Coatee, this style of garment, and then It can easily he copied, which is no smalt thing In these days of obligatory econ omy. Many of the blouses made In this style are caught In below the waist by a loose silk sash which Is lightly attached to the blouse here and there. The ends of the sash are tied at the hack ; other models are drawn In by a ribbon ran through an Inch-wide hem ; others are canght In by a bund of fur as Indicated In m drawing. But. of course, the model Illustrated Is ud out door blouse. You will notice that It Is buttoned right up to the throat at one side. This practical and comfortable notion Is In great favor this autumn. The Mouse or dress bodices underneath may be quite decollete, but the ror rect thing Is the cont or wrap which buttons up to the throat and which can be worn with or without a warm fur tie. The combination of color shown In the Paquin model Is very effective: bright rust-red and black. I have seen rust-red shown In all the best estab lishments In n variety of materials. This color Is charming in velvet or vel veteen and It looks Its best when Jux taposed with skunk or kolinsky. SMOCK IS NOT A MERE FAD It Is the Most Comfortable Working Garment for the Gardener, Stu dent, or Artist. The smock is not. as most people who do not wear it suppose, a mere feminine fad; it Is something more; It is the comfortable working garment of the gardener, the student and the artist. That it Is comfortable needs no proving, and that it Is having a tremendous vogue also goes without proving. Itut like everything else that has a vogue. It's bound to he abused. Silk, satin or any other of the flossy stuffs Is decidedly not the thing for the workshop. Hut here's one smock that Is. It Is three-quarter length, raglan sleeved, unbelted, smocked true to type, and of heavy art canvas. The smocking front and back ami on the sleeve ends Is rather elaborate; then there Is a bit of oriental embroidery on the rather deep sailor collar Just to preserve the feminine air. Millinery Noveltlea. The "bustle" bus made Its appear ance In millinery. In the "bustle" hat, which has the brim upturned at the back. The high Cossack turban Is an other Innovation. As to shapes, the preference is given to those of medium le. Scarce as it la. panne ' velvet holds Its foremost place among mate rials. The favored colors are taupe, brown and purple, but black has these all distanced. Feather garnitures and fur trimmings dominate in the decora tive end. lrygoods Kconomlst.
