An outstanding type of evening silhouette is based on the 1880 in- fluence, with back inter- est hinting at bustles, and fullness in pleats or folds and ends of sashes which drop from the" back of the waist to the hem. Often this back interest comes in an Immense bow-shaped drapery or in tiers of frills at the back of an otherwise slim frock.

IN A MESS
DEAR FAITH FRIOR: I am in a terrible mess. I am afraid to confide in my friends, as I know they would never understand. Six months ago my.. wife went to visit her parents She had been ill and the doc-
for advised a complete rest. At first I was terribly lonely. then I met a sweet girl and commenced taking her out. 1 had no idea that I would fall in love with this girl. But that is what has happened. I love my wife, too. I seem to love both of them, crary as that may sound. My wife will soon be back and I cannot bear to face her: She would insist that I give this girl up and that is something I simply can't do. No matter what I do there will be heartaches for someone and I don't see how I can give up the other girl, is there a solution? What To Do.
As a result, furs are lovely, they are delightfully feminine, beauti fully done and last, but most im- portant, there is a fine fur for every clothes allowance.
It is to be a season of extreme silhouettes which is completely satisfactory, as there are chubby Jackets for the tall giri. "Fitted, three-quarter length coats for the petite type and long swaggers for the average.

Short jackets will team with *bustle dresses and long coats are softly treated and loose, for the most part.
SUMMER ERMINE
