Lady Modish on Shirt Vakt Suits.
For some time I have noticed pecu
liar alluring grace a puzzling je ne eais
quoi about certain women I have en
countered at Newport and in New York,
which at once charmed and perplexed
me. Many other women wore exquisite
gowne, yet it was perfectly clear that
they lacked the essentially graceful
quality of their more fortunate sisters.
Their gowns were admirable in style,
but they possessed a rigidity of bodice
that was absent in those I so much ad
mired. At a recent dinner four out of
six of the women present wore gowns
which possessed this distinctive feature,
the secret of which when learned proved
astonishingly simple. The gowns are
called and the title is somewhat mis
leading as applied to dinner costume
"dhirt waist suits." I say misleading.
bacauBe to the uninitiated a shirt waist
suit suggests the golf links, a pedestrian
tour or a day's shopping afoot. The
name is a fitting one, nevertheless, for
the distinctive feature of these suits is a
boneless waist, which readily accounts
for the undulating grace so much ad
mired, and to which I have so often re
ferred sb a necessary adjunct to woman
ly beauty. With the boned corset and
another set of stiff whalebones on top of
it, the wonder is that the feminine torso
has shown any grace or freedom of
movement whatever. A clever creator
of beautiful things for women inaugu
rated the innovation, and I venture to
predict that it is only a question of
months when the foolish and beauty
marring boned linioga will be done
away with altogether. The idea of
these boneless waists is to fit the well
corseted figure with absolute perfection,
leaving all itabeaatrTiiTrrneB unchanged.
And this is the only point of resemblance
between the new shirtwaist suit of
fashion and the shirt waist suit as we
UEed to know it
Eveuing gowns of this style are the
loveliest things possible, and both large
and small women among the fashion
ables are rapidly adopting the idea, to
the absolute exclusion of all others. As
I looked the other day at some of the
recent creations of Eugenie, who is re
sponsible for this charming innovation,
I wondered how it was possible that
women ever consented to encase them
selves in the old-style whalebones.
A geranium scarlet gown of crepe de
chine, with a short-sleeve bodice fast
ened in the back, was simply a dream
of beauty. There were the tinieBt of
tucks at the shoulders and down the
back, while the front was embroidered
in a grape design to the' belt line. The
skirt also showed this design in a front
panel, and had a shaped tiounce on
either side, widening en train in the
back. The embroidery was all done in
red silk and there were quantities of
all sorts of flounces on the silk slip un
derneath to make the desirable spread
at the bottom. The waist as are all
the waists of this sort is worn over a
perfectly fitted boneless Blip, with the
desirable effect I have already men
tioned. Hand embroidery is having the most
remarkable run, and is seen on the
sheer linen blouses, over silk slips, col
ored or white, which are very popular for
evening wear with handsome skirts.
Another evening waist of great beauty
was made entirely of narrow Valen
ciennes insertion, fastening in the back
and having short flounced elbow-sleeves.
This was seen over a pink silk slip, and
was particularly effective. A pale pink
silk waist of the most captivating shade
all of these waists are of the very
choicest shadings with embroidery in
chrysanthemum pattern in glistening
white silk. Still another had a front of
tiny box pleats edged with tucks. Down
the center of each pleat wa- row of
white silk French knots, whi between
the pleate a trailing vine w -vorked
uui id wuuesuK. xniB was -pecially
dainty.
The suits are made also t rough
goods, woolens and broanc hs a
dark blue camel's hair is ma t with a
skirt close fitting to the kr. 3 and a
waist trimmed with a yoke ana j imts of
Irish crochet lace colored dars blue to
match the goods. The sleeve H as a cuff
to confine the fullness from thf elbow,
and the entire garment is suliciently
chic to attract the attention and envy
of every modish woman who sees it. An
odd red broadcloth showed seme tiny
short tucks below the belt line from side
to back and bad a deep stitched tiounce
about the bottom. An innovation in
lingerie is a fine satin petticoat reaching
to the knees only. This is very light
and thin, taking up scarcely any space.
and perfectly fitted over the hips. To V
the bottom of this is buttoned a deep,
handsome double flounce of nainsook,
elaborately trimmed with lace, and very
full and wide. The idea is that these
flounces may be unbuttoned and laun
dered separately.
Woman Suffrage Convention.
The twenty-first annual meeting of
the Nebraska Woman Suffrage associ
ation will be held in Lincoln November
12, 13 and 14, 1901.
All state officers, presidents of auxil
iary, county and local associations, and
three delegates of each local club, with
one delegate additional for every twentj
five members, are entitled to vote in the
convention.
The national president, Mrs. Carrie
Chapman Catt of New York, will ad
dress the convention and conduct a
question box.
A. L. Bixby of the State Journal and
Miss Laura A. Gregg, manager of the
woman suffrage headquarters, will ho'nf
a joint debate on the question, "Re
solved, that the right of citizens to vote
should not be denied or abridged on
account of-sex."
A symposium will be conducted by
eight prominent state workers on the
subject, "How would the enfranchise
ment of woman advance the progress ot
civilization ?'
Mre. Emma Shuman of Xebrasna
City will preside over a work conference
on "What methods of work have proved
successful in increasing membership,
stimulating activity and extending the
club influence?
All auxiliary organizations are urged
to send complete delegations, and friends
of the cause, not identified with the or
ganization, are cordially invited to at
tend and accept the same hospitality
accorded to delegates.
