You can't make your self think, even if they are the police of the Woods, they always arrest the wrong people."

It looKs as though he ' public were given a chance to - use two waistlines. Evidently, the Inde cision on .the part of women . to know where their waistline should be, led to this generosity on the part of the designers. It was Cheruit of Paris who ac centuated the hip-line and the waist line on one gown. When the gowns from the establishment first came Into the American trade, women decided to take off one of the two or three belts, and merely because woman is incon sistent. The designers gave her every chance to produce as many lines around her waist as she wanted, so that- no one would be final and assert authority : but when she got the chance, she made up her mind to use only one. BOTH LINES TODAY This season the public, aided by the designers, have accentuated two lines around the middle of the body. If thy Put a sash at the hips, they do something to indicate that nature de parts from the straight line higher up, No woman today makes a pretense of having a small waist, but she seems to have a troubled desire to show that she realizes the formation of er anatomy. Therefore, she places a little string of ribbon, velvet or metallic tissue, around the spot where the waist has been from the beginning of civilization. It's an odd little tribute to nature. It has something in it of a woodman's trick of placing a bit of white cloth on a tree to mark the path. Now. if -the hips are , marked by a thin ribbon or band, then a wide sash goes up to the waistline, but whichever way you turn it, you are apt to get two definite lines around a woman's figure between bust and knees. Even the curaiss blouse and the tight jersey have these lines, and each gown of the new sort shows in some particu lar way that women must be right, one way or the other. In subscribing to the fashion for a normal or a long waist. . APRON AT THE HIPS Take the gown which is sketched It worn in a new play and has at tracted unusual attention. Here you see the two lines around the middle of the body, the one at the hips marked out in a peculiar way. It is the start for a pleated apron. .' These aprons have suddenly jumped into fashion. They are one of the many ways of giving width to a slim under skirt, for it is quite evident that none of the fashions will permit us to wear a tight skirt .without Bome covering of sizable dimensions.
