FASHION NOTES.

Clothes for Full Figures.

Clothies are easier to wear this) year.

The one criticism scoms to be that it is still difcult for tho older wontan to find clothes for herself. But Paris always finds models that are admirably adapted to the mature woman. The fuller figure has always interested the Paris dressmaker, and she designs constantly with it in her mind. With a cleverly ebonen corset, the| waistline, perhaps, dropped to the hip-bone, with draperies and the slenderising vogue of black, It) seeing that the older woman has much to aid her this year.

The peplum. cunningly placed, will suit her, the straight jumper blouse, aplit at the sides to allow the belt to appear in front only.) Is a blessing to her.

Longer skirts, the total absence of belt, the bloused; back, the brimmed hat, the added) sleave importance, which takes away from the bulk of the figure; by making it look contrastingly unimportant, the softness of lace- touches on black afternoon frocks; all these "leads" should hold many hints to the older womɩTİ,

The dress designer works for little girls just as she does for the mature woman with much care and desire to please. The colours chiefly in vogue for children's frocks are, at present, red and) green, which have a great variety of tinta calculated to show off youthful grace to the best advan- tuge.

WHAT WOMEN DON'T KNOW.

Dya Mere Man-3

Ever Ainco Eve gave Adam the apple, women have considered themselves misunderstood. They have not found out yet that we understand them much better than they do us.

), "the poor dears are positively transparent." That, however, is where they make their biggest mistake.

A woman is, usually, unable to view a matter from any but her own personal standpoint, and she judges others by what she would do under similar circumstances.

FOR BEAUTIES.

Some Intelligence Tests.

Paris has, I sec, once again beon selecting a "beauty queen."

Whether or not the recently- made suggestion that competing beauties should also have to undergo an intelligence test of a sort was adopted in this case, I do not know but the very fact that it should have been made нçems to point to the fact that our idenla of feminine_beauty are changing.

Mere beauty of fenture is often enough still over-rated as an naset in the battle of life, so perhaps it is just as well that even the (beauty competitions should begin to take account of other qualities that quite definitely enter into the composition of feminine beauty.

Someone has said that brafus and beauty make a dangerous com- bination, but even these may exlet together in a woman who loaves ļothers quite cold.

It is not so much cleverness an charm that one must look for in addition to perfection of fentura, if we want to find real-beauty. H.M. In Exchange.

Lastly, it provides us with a marvellous excuse to clonk our own selfishness. What we do, or do not do, can easily be explained away on the plea that we really [did not know what she wanted.

She knows that she is quite in-t capable of suffering in silence and must refute any statement about hersel, with which she does not agree. Because men have never] opposed the theory that they are unable to understand a woman, che Imaginea that silence can mean nothing but consent. does not occur to her that men do not bother to contradict unless there is something to be gained by doing so.

In this instance there is not. In fact, we know that it is well, worth our while lo encourage her to think that 'she can read us like an open book. As nobody, man or woman, likes to feel that they are devoid of hidden depths, it pleases | her without hurting us, and we men learned long ago that it pays us to keep our womenfolk happy.
