The sleeve of the spring pays a tribute to the fashion for exposing the arm. It refuses to conceal it. It reveals it through drapery. It gives | glimpses of it thrc®zh lace. It shows | a long slice of it by an opening from | shoulder to wrist, at the back. Even | a demurc tricotine sleeve is made startling by a wide openwork in lat- tice fashion reaching down the length of the arm on the outside. Another demure sleeve, the kind made by Renne, is shown in a black crepe de chine frock of Quaker severity. This | sleeve is somewhat wide, is gathered into the armhole, again at the wrist, but does not join between the two. It falls entirely away from the arm as the wearer moves. American wom- en who like the model and know its exceeding charm have the loose sling | sleeve cut at intervals between the shoulder and the forearm:” The directoire sleeve, as it is intro- duced in plain dark blue tricotine suits for street wear, fits the arm to the elbow, and is there finished with three wide circular ruffies faced with white organdy. Paris adopts the high muffler collar with more enthusiasm than America, and it may be that her women will wear Robespierre collars to the chin and open sleeves from the bazaars of j Delhi. America will reverse the fashion. She will adopt the opaque sleeve for the street of open net. with the fichu or rolling collar of Charlotte Corday. The French gowns for the afternoon emphasize a collar that will please American women for all hours of the day. It is made of white organdy, is about three inches high and stands upright from the decolletage. The fourteenth century idea of in- corporating colored sleeves in_ dark frocks is sweepingly evident. Jennie has made a successful gown which is in chemise fashion, the lower part of wide and squarely cut. of Indian red crepe thickly covered with dark blue soutaching. :NEWS ‘Women's City Club—Miss Florence | Fraser Stiles will be hostess at the directors’ reception this afternoon. 14:30 to 6 o'clock.

Papers were read by Mrs. Dyer, Mrs. ish influence. These capes are an imitation of shawls and they are fashioned to a point at. the back. The Spanish Mantones are worn by some Frenchwomen in the evenin They go with long earrings, the new sleek coiffure, with its long pasted wringlet upon each temple and the high Spanish comb. These wraps have been brought to America and the artistic women will appear in them through the summer. From Spain and Venice comes the fashion which is so strongly im- pressed upon the world by Ducet and Madeleine et Madeleiné of trimming capes and frocks with broad bands of cut-out cloth pasted on coarse net. This trimming is comparatively new —old as it is—and there is a promise that it will gain power as the sea- son proceeds. - Another trimming which Ducet borrows from ancient countries is slashing thin material cut into strips and using it in large diamond-shaped pieces inserted in a frock or a_wrap. Both France and America are making good use of the scigsors in clipping net or ribbon or crepe into tiny fringes, using these in whatever way the inclination sug- gests. One of the most important gowns put forward by a New York house i8 a black taffeta, with a very short skirt six vards wide at the hem and trimmed with puffs and cording of the taeta. On the tight bodice bring- ing it into full attention is an imi- tatlon fichu which crosses at the bust and runs to the hips. It is made of slashed string colored net, with the [little edges picotted and curling up. This type of trimming is used in black in a chemfse frock of black crepe de chine. There seems to be a concerted effort to get material into ribbons or punch it full of holes. This is the ancient way of providing an ornamental surface to the cos- tume. It is because of this fashion that eyelet embroidery is in vogue, the kind one gets by the bushel in Madeira after finishing the toboggan. OF THE CLUBS D. G. Davis and Mrs. Paris Brengle.
