I'AHIS A react lo;i towards the
regime of the empire seems to have
eomo over I'uris t hat is, in the
trend of styles in recreation and in
clothes.
I'uris society is reviving the cotil
lions of the past century.
These dances may be resporifiblc
for the revival 4t the ls;ti diodes
with bouffant skirts often elabor
ately decorated. Young v oim u
have shown preference for ihe
quulut, full skirted dresses. Cor
the most part, the gowns are made
of taffeta but much chiffon veiel
and some lace also is used.
One of the robes de style, launch
ed by the house of Lenief, has
bright red poppies appliqueil on a
tight bodice and full ' tsralloptd
skirt of white talfcta.
in harmony with the tendency
towards "old-fashioned" costumes,
the tulle cape with elaborate pat
terns worked In narrow Valencien
nes luce, haw been designed. Thec
capes hang down well to the Item1
of the dross In back and barely j
cover the elbows at the sidti.s. i
Some are cut with a long point in
back and fasten with Millions in a I
fichu front. ,
Keboux's contribution to i he ,
swing towards the styles ti t he ;
empire days Is a collection of ba'sj
with- lace ruffled brims, a frill of.
ace being sewed just under the I
,'dgu of the hat, which is small and
frames the face.

You, too, will find that Lucky
Strikes are mild and mellow the
finest cigarettes you ever smoked,
made of the finest Turkish and
domestic tobaccos, properly aged
and blended with great skill, and
there is an extra process "It's
toasted" no harshness, not a bit
of bite.
David Belasco, dean
of the American Theatre,
writes :
"The voice is to ihe actor what the chisel
is to the sculptor, lie must beware of
dulling its qualities. Naturally I am
vitally concerned about the voices of my
players, so 1 always advise the one
cigarette that 1 discovered many years
ago that does not impair control of the
subtlest vocal shadings or cause huski
hess or harshness. 1 mean the 'Lucky
Strike.' It is the player's best friend."
