~ News < - Coat, Vest, And Short Socks Will Be Vogue In Fall Styles For Women “Miss Masculne” Is the Latest Creation of Parisian Artists —Milady Must Wear Even Shorter Skirts and Expose Bare Limbs to Public. Philadelphia, Sept. 18.—The man- nish woman is preparing to launch herself upon us inore vigorously than ever, but Philadelphia is prepared to resist her. She will snip a few more inches from her skirt, wear a thor- oughly masculine coat and vest and top it off with a soft hat. But she will not stop there:- In fact, she hasn’t stopped there, according to a dispatch from Paris for in ad- dition to carrying out all the fore: going ideas Miss Masculine has don- ned socks which leave her legs bare and public. Lay-Down Collar and Cravet, Of course the lay-down collar and four-in-hand tie go with the cos- tume. This enables the wearer to do away with the handbag and the purse for there are pockets galore in which she can have all the things that her feminity craves- Some believe that the present Parisian style, which is now cropping out here and there, is the result of the war, Women are taking the places of men in many things, and it. séemed natuyal that they should drift into men’s clothes. The fad is also being followfd in London by many women, who are not suffragists, and last week a woman in New York appeared in one of the mannish costumes. She attracted no end of attention, but no one sought to interefer with her constitutional rights in the matter. Should this masculine idea gain favor in this country it would mark a new era in manufaciuring. It would mean the elimination of many of the fem- | due largely to *he fact that she is an | for Theater Goers and Women Readers inine gewgaws of frail textile, and at the same time bring a big boom in the manufacturing of cloth and other goods for the new attire, French-Brazilian is Originator, It appears that the woman who gave impetus to the new, masculine style was not really a native cf France- Reliable reports say that it was inaugurated by Mme Luifere, a French Brazalinn who contends that it is the proper and modest dress for women. She wears her ~original costume continually in the streets of Parle.l Regarding the socks, she says they are more comfortable and cooler than stockings and certainly just as de- cent as the shcrt transparent skirt. Mme. Luifere’s breadth of view is engineer in Brazil. In the course of | her work she was thrown chiefly in: contact with men and soon assimilat- | ed many of the ideas of hef fecllow workers. “Her Desire o Be Comfortable, Incidentally, Mme. Luifere is a graphic writer ard has sent many in- teresting accounts of conditions in Europe to this country- It is generally believed that in her desire to be comfortable she had no intent to bring about a general revi- val in the mannish costume. Luigi Rienzi, an importer, said, in discussing the subject he did not be- lieve that the new costume would be popular here. few extremists might take it up” he said, “but i would be very severe and would bo unbecoming to & large number of women.” “OVER THE WIRE” THE BOHEMIAN GIRL GREAT PRODUCTION It is said that it is an almost entire- ly new Bohemian Girl that the Aborn Opera company will present at the Lyceum on next Thursday evening Not new as regards its music, as all of the sweet old melodi are of course retained, but in addition thereto, there are several ai included that were composed especially for the operatic festival of the French Second Empire. The latter were not sung in any American production of “The Mildred Rogers in ‘“The Bohemian Girl,” at the Russwin Lyceum Thursday, Evening Sept. 23. Bohemian Girl” previous to their in- troduction by the Aborns in their spectacular version séveral seasons ago, the same as that now being giv- en. The claim to newness for their production, it is said, is based on the lavishness and completeness with ‘which Milton and Sargent Aborn have put it on. To it, it is claimed, they have given a scenic adornment such g | ing dainty the pursuit of the Gypsy Chief at the finale of the first act, he is shown with the child, Arline, that he is abducting in his arms, riding madly up the winding road of the mountain, and following him at a mad pace are a number of cavalrymen, In the | BYPSY camp are seen not only the band of real gypsies: but everything that one would be apt to find in such sur- roundings, do&s, geese, chickens, pigs, | etc., that lend greatly to its realism. In the street fair among the features will be the Tzigani troupe of whirl. wind acrobats, than whom, none are greater, and lastly in the Marble Halls in place of the stately minuet that was formerly done, a beautiful baljet “The Dance of the Hours” from «yga Gioconda’ has been substituted.

Her work in this production is said to be one of the rarest and beautiful ex- amples of character portrayal in the annals of film plays. The role of the divorced actress, Jenny Gay, is especially suited to her peculiar tem- perment and talents. The story is familiar to theater-goers, it having been one of the big Broadway suc- cesses of the past few years and later taking to the road covering every little hamlet in America. “The Wo- man Next Door” SIDE ® RUTH And He Was Half Blind An astonish! g discovery has just been made by rome friends of ours. Their twelve-year-old boy is practically blind in one eye. The doctor says he was born with on eye very much weaker than the other and, the ten- dency being to uce the stronger member, he has almost lost the use of the weaker eye. He has been promptly fited with glasses and they hope he will recover some of his lost sight. As she looks back and wonde that age without her realizing his how her son cou'd ever have grown lo dicap, his mother reproaches hersell for one unkindness. “He was always tripping over things,” she says, “and now I come to think of it, it was almost always something on his left sidc. 1 thought he was awkward and I scolded and even punished him for it And just think, it was simply because he couidn’t see things on that side of him.!"” Often the Child’s Misfortune, Not His Fuwuit Now, of course, there are very few arises from any such handicap as semi-blindness, awkwardness have chronicled children whose but I this little story because I think there are many children whose awkward- ness is not much more their fault than this child's was. A child’s motor control is not so perfect as a grown person's. The nervousness which shows itself in an adult in irritability, loss of appetite, insomnia, etc., will often in a child manifest itself in a lack of motor con- trol. The child fidgets, stumbles over things, falls down, drops things, tips things over, and in far too many cases is scolded or even punished. That, of course, makes him more nervous and this completes the vicious circle. Of Course the Child Is Sometimes Carcless, Mind you, I don’t mean to deny that there may be the element of con- trollable carelessness in some of these accidents. The child does not realize how much trouble he is causing and not try as hard as he might to avoid breaking and does spilling things. But this element is much smaller than people ‘realize and the best treatment for it is not scolding or ‘whipping. The child does not realize the trouble he causes you. Devise some way to make him realize. If possible, let him share in the trouble of clearing up. Let him lose If he has caused a financial help make it good out of his allowance. be more careful if it is carelessness that is causing the trouble. ‘What Would You Do If a Guest Upset Something? But before you impose such penalties be sure it is carelessness. a guest in your home upset something you would pity his embarrassment and would try to make light of the accident. Remember that a child may sometimes suffer just as keenly from embarrassment as your Buest and that that very embarrassment may make him more awkward “All through my childhood I was afraid of tipping over things being scolded for it, and that only made me more awkward,” a girl con- fessed to me the other day. She is of the deliberate type that would never, even in childhood, have been guilty of carelessness, but she is left-hande some of his playtime to do it. d and thereby liable to accident. loss let him These things will teach him to ir grown-up and ¥ 2om o 4l s T GREAT (4 Seat Sale O “A TEXASH Big Four b should meet with as never before had been supplied to this opera, and one that takes rank with the famous production of the Metropolitan Opera house, and in carrying out the detall of the operal five massive scenes, they have intro- duced a number of novelties among which horses figure prominently.
