Short Sleeves Win the Day

H.) tjiy and wr garments
fashioned according to the latest edicts
have little idea of the serious side of
fashion making. They accept the law as
laid down, but of the struggles, the wars,
the revolutions, that go to the making
and enforcing of that law, they haven't
the remotest understanding.
There Is, for Instance, the matter of the
sleeve. Ever since last spring womn
have been Interesting themselves languidly
In sleeve development.
"My dressmaker tells me short sleeves
may last through the summer, but we will
surely have long sleeves In the fall," said
Mrs. A.
"Nonsense! Short sleeves are too pretty
and comfortable to be given up al
together," Insisted Mrs. B.
"But they've been so abused."
"Everything Is so abused."
And so the argument ran.
Meanwhile dressmakers took a more
vital interest in the problem. Just before
the first Paris openings we met two New
Cork dressmakers of the inner set. They
were In London, enroute for Tarts, with a
look in on Trouvllle to break the journey.
"I have letters from Paris today," said
one of the knowing ones. "It is settlel.
Everything is to have long sleeves."
"Not at all," interrupted No. 2. "I have
It upon the best authority. The short
aleeves remain In. A few long sleeves
among dressy models, but very few. Even
the smart coats will be no more than
three-quarters length." 1
"But at Trouvllle, my dear, there have
been loads of long transparent sleeves.
It is the opening wedge."
"One swallow doesn't make a spring."
We left them disputing.
In Paris things were no better.
"What about sleeves?" we Inquired of a
well known Importer who is close to the
ustorlal thrones and usually has ad
vance Information on all fashion changes.
He shrugged his shoulders helplessly.
"All In the air. Nobody knows. Every
body guessing. The little dressmakers are
sitting on the fence ready to jump either
way as soon as the big guns speak and the
glovemakers are crasy."
, And there was sounded a serious note.
Very amusing for you, Mesdemes, these
fashion changes, but fashion's whim may
mean caatrophe In the manufacturing
world, may mean heavy financial loss,
possibly financial failure, lessened wages
and work folk out of positions. There's no
telling where the ripples will stop when '
the great dressmakers throw a stone Into
the waters of the mode.
All of which' may not be interesting to
the casual reader of a fashion page, but It
la difficult to write of the new sleeves with
out remembering certain interviews and
certain scenes which had their amusing
side perhaps, but were accepted as serious
drama in that Galllo town where fashions
are made and launched.
It is quite true that the glovemakers
were crasy. If not crasy, at least in a
state of excitement and alarm sometimes
verging on hysteria. Think what a harvest
for them, the reign of the short sleeves
has meant. .
Never has the glove business flourished
as during the last two years. The only
difficulty lay In procuring enough skins In
filling the orders. ' Glove prices climbed
heavenward until even In Paris the well
dressed woman's glove bill was of necessity
desperately extravagant.

GROUP of fifteen New York
yBv I women havs launched the "Na-
J, I tlonal Society, Daughters of
v I i.t.. j.h,i,t..in. ft re
curred last week In New Tprk's
eapltol, where articles of Incor
poration were filed. Mrs, Oeorge Dease la
mentioned as the mother of the daughters.
The conditions of membership are these:
First, you and your parents, one grand
father or grandmother and one great
grandfather or great-grandmother must
have been born on American soil, and the
representative of the third generation,
counting backward, must havs been both
"prominent" and "respectable." Tou your
'self must be "respectable," although not
rieceHsart'.y prominent, and you must be
up on all the birth, death and marriage
dates Involved In the conditions, and you
must not offend the taste of the National
Society, Daughters of America, In even so
trifling a matter as the cut of your frock
or the style of your' coiffure.
These objects of the society are set forth
In the application blank:
"To perpetuate the memory of the noble
woman of America and to strengthen and
encourage the great and earnest women of
our day and generation In their exalted
devotion to the cause of humanity and the
betterment of the condition of women. .
"To rear the highest standard of womanly
character and achievements, to preserve
tho purity and sanclty of the home and
to foster the spirit of unselfish patriotism
and devotion to the principles of liberty
and equality."
"There are lots of women." said Mrs.
Dease, "who won't Join any clubs because
they are so mixed. They say that the
Daughters of American Revolution are
Jammed with all sorts of nationalities.
They have asked me repeatedly why pure-

glovemakers waited for the decisive open
ings with an Interest more Intense than
that of the buyers and dressmakers who
thronged Paris.
Finally the season of the openings began.
Francis showed his autumn models. Three
quarter sleeves Is a large majority of the
coals for which he is famous.
Beer opened his doors to the crowd.
Short sleeves In nine-tenths of his im
portant models. Other houses rendered the
same verdict; but sUU Paquln was not
heaid from.
His models had been Jealously guarded.
No one knew what he might spring upon
the public, this erratic arbiter of the modes.
And until he had said his say nothing was
settled; the glove men could not breathe
easily; the other dressmakers could not be
sure how cleverly they had guessed, for
though many women prefer other makers
to Paquln, the fact remains that the house
of Paquln has a way of forcing Its opinions
upon the world of fashion, of casting the
deciding vote upon puzsllng questions of
the modes, of launching a majority of the
revolutionary fashion Ideas.
"What will you do If Paquin comes out
In favor of long sleeves?" the Importer
already quoted asked of Francis, after
viewing the models in which that maker
had committed himself to short sleeves.
The Frenchman smiled.
"Probably we will make long sleeves,"
he admitted frankly, with a rueful shrug.
It may sound silly to those folk who
mistakenly regard fashion making as a
frivolous affair, but there was dramatlo
excitement in the crowd that flocked to
Paquln's on the morning of the opening.
"If a few hundred thousands francs could
have settled Paquln's Ideas of sleeve I
guess the glove men would have arranged
it," said one of the well known men In the
crowd thst filled the halls.
The show began. The first
walked In majestically.
Short sleeves!
A burs of comment,
a tioddlng of hands, a
mopping of brows.
The second model.
Short sleeves.
A third. The same
etory.
A sigh of relief was
wafted through the
room. A few folk
slipped quietly out to
carry glad tlddlngs.
The rest fell to ex
claiming over the new
Paquln rklrt.
The matter of the
sleeve was settled. A
woman may wear a

"Well, I've started this society for Just ,
such people, and now I'm resting on my
oars and waiting for them to do the, rest.
There are fifteen members, twelve In New
York and fifteen In Connecticut, and we're
going to have a national convention In
October." , .
BkiploaS ef Women Arrives.
A whole shipload of eligible young women
who are hot afraid to put their hands In
the dc-ufh the pastry kind and who de
clare they are docile and loving, entered
the "promised land", at New York Satur
day morning. The white Star liner Baltic
conveyed the young women to New York.
To be precise, there were 1,002 girls on
the big vessel, and they believe that there
are at least that many good men In this
country. Few of them care about staying
In New York. 1 A number of them' have al
ready left for Fittsburg, and others will
follow. Others will depart for Chicago,
St. Louis and other western towns.
The story that they had come over to
find husbands, says the New York Sun,
was no more true than that 1,001 marriage
able women anywhere usually devote to
that matter some thought which In the
aggregate would be considerable. Mostly
they have come to earn their living. They
are only an advance guard, and steamers
still to arrive here will bring many more.
According to Purser Palmer of the Baltic,
several who could afford to pay higher
rates came in the second cabin. There were
on the steamship 209 unmarried men. but
they tailed to make any Impression. Every
summer many women in domestic service
here cross the ocean to see their relatives
and friends, and when they come back they
often bring some younger sisters or cousins
with them. Just by .chance there happened

they have been for a year past.
For novelty's sake many women will
have at least one or two frocks made with
the long close wimpled sleeve which has
had a place among summer modes and
is illustrated in many lovely fall models.
Moreover, a sleeve of this sort will essen
tially change a last season's bodice, and
since the prettiest of the sleeves are of
transparent stuff, such as not chiffon or
lace, they can be used for freshening an
old bodice even when there Is none of the
bodice material available save for the
Inevitable shoulder drapery, sleeve cap or
kimono shoulder.
Some of the Paris models show a
wrinkled mitten sleeve of net or chiffon
over a close fitting lining of soft silk, and
occasionally this gives charming results,
as In a Paquln model of smoke gray silk
mousseltne made over a rather bright clear
green, but on the whole the transparent
sleeve wrinkled over a fitted lining of
chiffon Is the most satisfactory expression
of the long mousquetalre sleeve.
Sleeves with long transparent cuffs below
upper sleeves of the frock material are
shown, but usually the small glgot lines
are retained, the cuff and upper sleeve
running into each other without the ap
pearance of a definite cuff and puff top

Modified kimono lines
are a featurer-o

the short oversleeve
with transparen

frequently among the short as It was last
season.
A Dress Hint.
For the woman with sufficient time and
Ingenuity to make some of her own clothes
a valuable hint will be found In the uss of
the boned combination suits, corset cover
and skirt, or the covers alone, which are
fitted to order, and may then be made t
serve as a foundation for other gowns.
to be a goodly gathering on the Baltic.
The majority were Irish. Others came
from England, Wales and Scotland, and
some were Scandinavians.
They were surprised to find that their
coming had been heralded and when re
porters met them on Ellis Island and
showed them newspaper clippings which
said they were looking for husbands they
didn't like it. There was a bunch of photoc
raphers on the Island, but the girls re
fused to pose and dodged when the batteries
opened lire. Only snapshots could be ob
tained and many of these were spoiled be
cause the camera man was not quick
enough for the girls.
"We are not' all servant girls," said one
of the contingent, "and we are not looking
for husbands either. If Wo were we could
have found them on the other side." There
was a chords of assent.
Others took the husband matter as a
good Joke and began to tell the reporters
what kind of men they preferred. Kate
Donahue, a real colleen, mischievously said
she was going to Pittsburg, where she
hoped to find one of those millionaires.
Susan Thompson from Manchester, said she
believed all Americans made good hus
bands and she- preferred tall man with
fair hatr. Another girl said a Brooklyn
policeman might do, but she would look
around for a while before making a final
choice.
Vice President John Dee of the White
Star line has a letter from a Kansas wid
ower who bad seen the report of the girls
coming on the Baltic and wrote to say he
wanted a wife who would go to Kansas as
soon as she landed. The widower said ha
had two daughterH who were married and
added "there is orly one other house near
mine. 8 he can tell the house by the green
shutters. Tell her not to make a mistake."
Mr. Dee has trouble enough, he says, with
out starting a marriage agency.

Says Hea Talk Too Maeb.
"I do not think we want any pity from
man or any condescension, and I am very
conndent that our daughters, if not our
selves, will see things put right," is the
stand taken by Irene Osgood, novelist, in
a vigorous discussion of "Man Versus
Woman," that is agitating English so
ciety. She lias a small opinion of woman
suffrage, not because she thinks It wrong
for women to vote, but on the ground
that the ballot lin t worth the fight the
suffragists are making for It.' "I do not
know," she goes on, "whether the grant
ing of voles to women will help in this
consummation, becauas I have no great
faith In the use of parliaments, and I waa
sorry to see a sensible people like the
Russians creating so absurd an institution
as the Douma. By the way, men are. al
ways saying that women love talking, yet
It Is men, not women, who assemble for
those debaucheries of roulllloquence which
they pompously style legislative assem
blies. "I suppose that women of property,
women who employ labor, who have duties
and responsibilities, ought to be permitted
to vote; but I do not think that many
women would bother to vote If they had
the power to do so, because I think that
most women share my opinion of the use
lessness of parliaments. It Is as woman
grows to know her own strength, to see
her own superiority, to understand man
as he really is, to cease being the dupe
of her mobility of character and kindness
of heart that she will attain to ber proper
place In society and In the family that
is to aay, at the top, with man a good
many steps lower down."

One day's shopping, not buying, simply
as an experiment, showed how easy theSe
highest figures can be reached. A furrier
offered a fine sable coat for the "reason
able price" of 19.000, while the milliner
suggested a fitting bat to go with It for
170, and the bootmaker selected proper
footwear for $12. The coat does not have
to be renewed every month, but there
must be other coats, and It was learned
that the proper complement from opera
cloak down to the smallest jaunty street
affair of fine cloth and exquisite trim
ming would cost a trifle of something
like (20,000. Then there should be a mat
ter of twenty-live hats, with their decora
tions of fine feathers and laces that aver
age . not more than $55 each, and there
must be more shoes than hats that can be
had from tl to J a pair. Hats and
shoes are subject to frequent change.
This Is all very well for the outalde, but
there must be at least -a score of gowns
to go with this, and gowns soon grow old
and must be frequently renewed. The
best dressmakers want from 1700 to tl.200
for the fine garments suitable for balls
and dinner. Then all sorts of house and
street gowns are necessary, which are
much cheaper than the others, or from
tlOO to 500, but their number must be large.
For the other clothing, Including fan
and parasols, It is difficult to get figures,
for there Is such a broad latitude In taste,
quantity and quality, and frequent changes
make purchases of almost dally occurrence.
The cost soon runs Into the thousands
and makes ths total expenditure of $55,000
a year quite easy, to say nothing of the
Jewels, which are supposed to endure for
some time, subject to the change In fashion.
Leaves from Faaaloa's Notebook,
Broadcloth is the cloth par excellence
this season. It always has .held its own
In the very front ranks of fabrics used for
ttret costumes, but this year its scope
extends beyond that, to dinner and even
ing gowns, in the construction of whloh
an amailng amount of artlstlo originality
Is shown.
One of the quite new things is a neck
ruffle made of black tulle. It ia exceed
ingly wlJs, so wide, in fact, that it forms
a trimming for the shoulders as well as
for ths neck. It is flat and la worn
something like a? shoulderette. To give it
an added touch of smartness the entire
rufn is covered with a network of very
narrow black velvet. 1 The network holda
the tulle In place and gives it support and
body.
It I considered immensely smtrt to
wear a silk shirt wslst suit in the midJla
of winter. The suit can bs made upon
the simplest of shirt waist lines, with no
trlniming at all except a band of silk or
a few rows of velvet. A fur coat for tho
street glvee this suit the crowning touch
of smartness.
Browns, with all the multitudinous
variations from palest yellow snd cresm,
through ths slds tnnes of pinks and reds,
to the autumnal shades that deepen
through smoke tints to Jet black, are
shown In the new cloths, and la the old
ones, which have been enriched wherever
possible to keep paca with the novelties.
