Somewhere Id an old norel th writer tells briefly iht hla .heroine wore a tklrt with a frill. Mow that frill was put on he does not touch upon, but let ua trust that It was not In the Intricate fashion of the preaent dajr. "A skirt with a frill" no, the phraae will certainly not do for the petticoat of 1901, so, unlets acquainted with their sub- SMART STREET tletles, let the modern novelist etecr clear of tklrt talk. But to begin myself, the events that the peplum and postillion talis seemed to foreshadow have not been as dlsastroua as was feared. In other words, the oversklrt, that much" anticipated evil, is still await ing the will of woman, who dlspcaes that her long, clinging lines shall not be in- -ltH C I ( ft rfrannrlnl uprn wnnflll 11 A l. I VVi " 1 n. unit ' !' - - . ilMtrnTxri nt rare, and we have reason ! to rejoice that the few Greek effects which 1 appeared at the beginning of the season were quickly frown down. On the other band, the trimmings which effect a compromise between the perfectly plain stage and the too-trimmed stage are everywhere aeen and becoming to all ex cept thick-set figures. Take the improvements on the graduated flounce alone. At. one time this obscured only one line, a line hedging no appreciable depth In front, but which mounted so high at the back ai almost to divide the skirt Into two equal parts. This was found try Ing to short figures, and not especially 'beautifying to tall onea when It became the fad to exaggerate the lAngth and slim xtess of skirts. So the graduated flounce became a thing of distracting subtleties narrowing to five or alx Inches at ths front and rlatng Into points above this at each .aide of ie narrow apron gore. At the back 'tv.e old curve Is still observed, but the 11 suncs there is less deep than for merly, and It is no uncommon thing for a skirt to have plain apron and flounced hack breadths. The smart costumes seen in a hotel tea I room patronised by society were dlstin gulshed by these odd skirts. A soft black and white checked wool made a walking -gown of rare elegance. Bands of white isuede, edged with black and worked with IFrench knota, trimmed this delightfully. ,Tb. skirt model showed a plain apron, .very narrow at the top and flaring widely I at the bottom. The back of the tklrt was .out - bell-shape and ornamented with five flounces, headed by a band of the embroid ered suede. The stole-llke drop at ths sides was repeated In a becoming hip trimming. A Charming Creation. A more pretentious, but scarcely more charming, creation was in champagne crepe de chine (that pinkish lace, you know), with bodies and skirt decorations of velvet and lace guipure. This trimming was In green and black In form a pointed edge, which outlined the plain apron of the skirt and enclosed a tucked band at the sides and back. Below ths band a baped flounce, lightly tucked at the top, accomplished ths side plans and train. Still another costume skirt showed an apron In heavy kilts, with a short, kilted flounce headed by three bias banda finish ing ths other breadths. Black velvet was the material of this line dress, which, de spite some handsome aet buttons and Jacket trimmings of Bruges lace, expressed an almoat tailor-Ilk simplicity. The buttons were enormous, suggesting brooches. In fact, with a petaled edge breaking their roundness.

The favorite Is always to simulate graduated flounce. French Fancies. A skirt more easily copied than this was a frilled and coquettish creation In pale blue cloth. Five ahaped flouncea, deepen ing somewhat at the beck, to allow for the length, decked this dainty example of French taste, for. except on stage gowns, American makers have not yet ventured to adopt the richly tinted cloths that Paris haa accepted with delight. Everywhere we are told that In ths EFFECTS. French capital gowns In colors never seen before Ore worn by the Smartest of the smart, the ball-like hues elng subdued by simple trimmings. Some of the bright cloth dresses sent over to us have. Indeed, do other decoration than careful stitching. When these are worn one remarks that the odd little Etons and blouse Jackets cover splendid lace bodices, or else waists of silk muslin adorable With filmy Inser tions and exquisite needlework. Simplicity, Bhort, is only a phrase where good clothes are concerned, for the most Ingenue results are often the most expensive. In the ateliers of the great French makers an order for simplicity is accepted as permis sion for extra expenditure. Not understand ing this one American beauty demurred, whereupon monsieur raised his shoulders expressively: "Madam." he said, "had I suapected that you did not know the value of great artists, I should never have placed them at your service."

Fart la High Favor. In truth, the modes of the hour have a strong animal leaning, with fur trimmings dog facea on umbrella handles. Neverthe less, the return to savagery Is becoming, and one finds In the new fur eoats, which are ao easy In fit, admirable buflars against the blasts which only too long invaded our Inadequate fineries. True, the fur wearing season In most states Is not long, but while It lasts one may as well be comfortable, and. Fashion insisting upon fur, the ex travagance Is doubly necessary. An Inexpensive 'and stylish pelt to re member Is German sable, which Imitates the markings of the real skin, Very swag gering short coats are to be found in this, and, If they are not quit as elegant as the same box models la Siberian squirrel, they are at least a deal cheaper, The big aoft muff, which covers the hands Ilk a flat bag, is also seen In this fur, but, unfortunately, there is no neck piece to match. The reason of this, the fur people explain. Is because German aable Is too coarse and rough tor the throat, and If they are strictly truthful people they will add that, except to He over the shoul ders like' an ornament, fur boas of any sort are not now greatly in favor. They hav been found too heating, too conducive to coughs and colds, and so with the fur coata, all of which have turn-down eollors, scarfa are worn.

Tk Trae Talk of Three) Women Called Saecessfal. The successful business woman Is popu larly referred to as one who has "done well." A plump little weekly envelops usually makes her domestic sisters gate at her with admiring round eyes. It Is not a bad thing, but, as in most other cases, there are two sides to the story. A little "real conversation" heard the other day brings out this point. Three well known women of the "suc cessful in business" type were lunching together, by appointment, at a downtown restaurant. The last one to arrive had apologlted for being behind time, and when she had taken the edge off her appetite began the discussion. "We live In a rush from morning until night," she said, "and what do we get out of it ? Just an existence. Every day my face seems more drawn and my wrinkles deeper. I look simply like a stormbeaten wretch." "I see the reflection of my features so rarely," remarked another, '"that I scarcely feel on speaking terms with It. It la doubt less a network of wrinkles, but there Isn't any time to worry over them. Every mo ment Is consumed In working, sleeping and eating." The third woman began rather hesitat ingly: "Were either of you "ever really hungry because you had not the money to procure food?" Her companions nodded. "I had to get along without money tor two days, a few years ago," ahe went on. "Fortunately, I had a gas stove and a quarter of a pound of tea, so I drank tea weak tea for forty-eight hours. It's rather amusing to recall those days now, but at the time It Wasn't a bit funny." The first woman had been staring at the reflection of her face in a mirror oppo site and what ahe saw may hav. Influenced her next remark: "People call ua fortunate because they hear of our successes and rarely, of our s 1 ffR1 ODD COSTUME SKIRT. failures, for, aa a rule, women don't say anything when they make a mistake or meet with a bitter disappointment. I'm a moral coward and hesltats to admit my short comings, but when things don't go right It Is usually owing to carelessness or lack of foresight on my own part. "Tho stay-at-home women frequently envy us because we have a certain amount of Independence and some money, but I wonder if they reallie what a strain It Is upon a woman's physique to b. obliged to go out day after day In all kinds of weather and to eat a questionable luncheon whenever and wherever it can be obtained perhap none at all? How would they Ilk. to hav. a doten things to attend to at once, telephone bells constantly ringing In their ears and messenger boys eternally at their elbows? W. don't even hav. time to ahop comfortably, but must get our clothes together so hurriedly that they are usually unsatisfactory, and that Is a tragedy that should appeal to any woman!" "Ob, well, there i. alway. the law of compensation to b. considered," observed lhe' the rouP- "Everything we get In this world w. hav. to pay for one way i or another. Of couree. If. gratifying to b. .ucce... but .ucce.. demand, lta price and will have It. Be. these lines around my eyes and mouth and all of these gray ' hair.. Most of my .choolmatea look ten I year younger. That Is on. of the littl. accounts success collects in return for her favors." "Well," protested the best looking and youngest, "some women grow old bringing up large families on $15 a week, don't they?" "Of course," promptly assented No. 1. "But that's not a fair way of looking at It. They hav. .omethlng to ahow for their dally grind at the end of twenty years. W. don't nothing that really matter, much anyway." "Men," proclaimed th. aerond woman, "admlr. and reaped self-supporting women, but I don't think they often love them. They look about for aom. on. on the cling ing Ivy order. Po.slbly they Imagine that th. pin. knot type of woman would not ap preciate domeatlcity. So we go on adopting ungrateful eat. or silly little canarfe. or other equally unreaponalv. creature as outlets for our affections. It's a One way of living. Isn't It?" They finished their luncheon with a rush, because they had lost so much time talking. "Now, to wind up," .aid on. woman, a. tb.y rase bed for th.ir glove, "be frank Just for .no. Wouldn't .ith.r of you ratbar be aa IrrMpoo.tbl. girl with a lot of dainty frock, and half a down beaux, or a young matroa with a yrotty baby, than be president r THE FRILLED COQUETTE. "Oh, don't!" exclaimed the best looking one. "We've got to work this afternoon. Don't let us grow sentimental. Working women can't afford It, and the higher your salary the less you can Indulge. Any woman who introduces such a topic of conversation at lunch Is fairly robbing her employer." And the trio separated with a pretense of Jollity. NOBODY DASCKS NOWADAYS, An Old Teacher Bewails the Craco for Waits. A man who taught the art of dancing to the grandmothers of the young people of today declares that "nobody dancea nowa days. People merely keep time to mua(c, romp through two-steps, hurry through waltxes an fret If anyone suggests a quadrille or landers. Grace and dignity ars utterly out of date. Young women don't know how to courtesy and young men haven't learned how to how. As for the old-fashioned, finished stpps we used to take when we 'balanced' to pur partners, why, a man merely shuffles his foot a little these days and runs Instead of gilding. I used to think of a field of wheat swaying In the wind when I watched a ballroom full of people dancing the landers, but now well. When the two-step made dancing pos sible tor the untrained the death knell of grace was sounded. "Nobody dances the Virginia reel now ex cept as a graceless romp, and as for the dainty schottisches, the redowas, the polkas, the Varsovtennes of our youth, where are they? The dance is always the Indext of manners, and In a day when everybody dances the two-step the world has two-step manners. I stopped teaching dancing when the abominable 'racket' came in, but even that required a "-ln amouist of training. 'Dancing In tfie barn' gave me shudders, but either of these dances was better than what we hav. today. We shall never be a nation of well-mannered people till dignity and grace are again in favor In th. ballroom." WOULD NOT TAKE NO. Notable Mem Who Did Not Win Their Wires by tho Aaklac When men of distinction assume ths role of lovers It 1. not always smooth sailing for them. Some have met with frequent rebuffs, but they persisted In their love- making and ultimately won. An amusing and characteristic story Is told of Lord Beaaonafleld In the days when he was woo ing Mrs. Lewis, to whom in later years of married life he was so touchlngly devoted. One day Mrs. Lewis, who was then -living In retirement at her seat In Glamorgan shire, saw a gentleman walking llesurely up the drive. "Jane," she exclaimed to an old aervant, "I really believe that hor rid man DUraell la coming up the drive Do, please, run to the door and .ay I'm not at home." Jan. opened the door to the unde.lred caller and gravely announced her message, "I know," DUraell coolly answered, "but take my bag to a bedroom and pr.par. luncheon. I will wait until Mrs. Lewis 1. ready to coma downstairs," which, of course, Mrs. Lewis felt compelled to do a few minutes later. "Oh, dear, what can I do with such aa obstinate, thick-skinned man?" th. widow aaked desperately later In th. day when Disraeli ahowed no sign of raising th. siege. "Marry him, I suppose, ma'am, was Jane'a philosophic answert and, aa th. world knows, th. persistent wooer had his way In the end tn this as In most other .things in life. "Any man can marry any woman," Vol talr one. cynically declared, "If h. only pursues her long enough." This, at any rate, wa. th. experience of Jacob Halllday, a well known character In tb. north of England, a coupl. of generation, ago. Never did a lover win a wife under auch discouraging condition aa Jacob, for after his first proposal ha was soundly horse whipped by the young woman's father and ducked In a convenient pond. "I'll aak her again next year," Jacob spluttered as he emerged from his bath, tb. Sr. of hi. paaslon not a whit quenched by hi. cold douch.

'It's no ttood, Jacob, I see,' she exclaimed. I may as well give In now as later; but what a fatnt-hcarted creature the importu nate widow was compared with you!' " Sheridan took an equally bold course when he Bought to win the fairest, of the beau tiful daughters of Llnley, the composer, of Bath, who was strongly opposed to the suit of the brilliant young poet and dramatist. His lady love, too, was beset by an army of suitors, many of them far more eligible parties than the penniless law student. The circumstances called for bold and de cisive action. After threatening to destroy himself if th. lady refused his advances and fighting a couple of duels with ono of his most formidable rivals Sheridan took the bold step of running away with Miss Llnley and conducting her to a French nunnery, where she remained In confinement until, succumbing to her lover's daring and per lstenca, sh. consented to marry him. An English Judge, not long deceased, used to tell a diverting story of his wooing. In those days he was a struggling and obscure barrister-without even the prospect of an Income and the woman upon whom he had aet hi. affections was the daughter of a purse-proud tradesman with a high-sounding name, who 'was strongly opposed to giving his daughter to a "penniless law yer." ' "Do you know, sir," tho father thundered when he. was asked for his daughter's hand "do you know,' sir, that my daughter's ancestors hav. all been noblemen and that one of them was a favorlto minister of Queen Elisabeth T" Oh, yes, I know all that," the young barrister placidly answered; "and do you know that Queen Elisabeth once slapped your ancestor's face, and unlesB you are more civil I will do the same for you?" It la scarcely surprising that so bold and daring a lover had hla way In the end, even In th. face of such a barrier of ghostly noble ancestors. The late Prince Bismarck, It Is said, won his wife by a similar coup do main. Al though he. had not known th. woman of his lov. mora than a few days and her parents were not even aware of his exist ence, he presented himself on. day before them and boldly asked permission to marry their daughter. In vald the father fumed and blustered and threatened to hava the young man forcibly ejected from the house for his Impertinence. I am sorry to annoy you, sir," the young soldier said, "but I must respectfully de cline to leave the house until I have your consent." Nor did he, although the eon- sent was given In these ungracious words: Well, I suppose you must have your way. but I cannot compliment my daughter on her choice of a mule for a huaband."
