Hems Have Their Ups And Downs New York, Oct. 29. —(U.R)—Stiff fabrics —slinky, filmy fabrics; minaret ■kirts—H® 1 ' paneled skirts; bustle backs—swathed, slim backs, extremely cut rever and scarf trimmed decolletage; shiny-surfaced metal ■ cloths— dull, lusterless crepes; princess, molded bodices — softly bloused Eodices; these are just a few fashion points which disclose the approval given ■ids that are as diametrically opposed as north and south.

nilcas s —- - - ■ There never lias been a season in Keceut years when there has been Kii.h a wealth of ideas presented for ■evening wear. I Every conceivable expression of ■dress fashion is offered, making the Kiatter of individual selection a great ■esponsibility. Dance and dinner Erock-i characterised by dipping hem■iines are the prevailing and therefore Eypical silhouette, but by no means ■the only one. There is, tor instance, ■ a movement to revive the even hem, Eowered below the knee level. The de■velopment of this idea will be watchEil with inteerst in view of its newEess and its bid to the ultra smart. . I For the woman who considers as ■an important matter the appraisal of Eer clothes from the angle of ex Elusiveness, the hemline can be de- ■ pnded upon this season to offer a ■clue. I The hemless finish on nearly all ■frocks and suits coming from exclusive houses is the telltale note. This ■ finish is always associated with the ■ skirt cut on circular lines, whether in ■ cloth or silk, and again, whether the ■ garment is a tailored or softly fashionled type. I in cloth skirts, the practice is to ■ finish the very narrow, turned-back ■ edge which serves in lieu of a four ■or five inch regulation hem with sevleral rows of machine stitching. In ■ frocks of flat, satin or canton crepe, la narrow bias binding is employed. ■ giving practically the same effect of ■hemlessness. At a recent fashionable outdoor ■ event, where the dividing line between ■ custom made and ready-made clothes lis conveniently drawn by a .fence | that encloses members of the smart I set within their own club grounds. I the difference in hemline finish was I quite pronounced.

A TREND to startling novelty Is evidenced by the new lints. Bonnets, not figuratively speaking, hut honest-to-goodness bonnets have come into fashion. Milliners are playing up the bonnet theme in every type from the simple poke-cloche to quaint little specimens which quite suggest the silhouette of a baby bonnet. Indeed fashionable Paris Is quite agog this very moment over the cunning ostrichfaced “baby bonnet” of satin which Suzanne Talbot recently created. When ostrich is not used then pretty pink petal effects line the quaint brim of these naive bonnets. The surprising part about the new millinery modes, some of which are quite extreme, is that women are reacting to them so spontaneously. Perhaps it is because that for so long a time the fashionable world has been feeling the urge for “something different,” and In the newer hats the hope Is being more than realized. Fashion this season is working upon the theory that the hat must cling close to the neck and about the face, and if It have a brim then the brim must In some novel way define tlie cheekline. Note the models in tills group, while in the strictest sense perhaps they should not be classified as bonnets, yet they do fit the head in a hood-like manner, and they are therefore aptly Illustrative of newest trend

Note how, In the top model, the flange of little velvet petals, each of which Is outlined with tiny gold beading, is brought down so to define the cheekline. This Interprets a very new silhouette. The handsome twinpin rhinestone ornament is just such as sparkles on a vast number of the season’s velvet chapeaux. Tlie ornate band about the velvet cap to tlie left is worked In spangles and chenille embroidery. Everywhere one turns in the realm of autumn and winter millinery one sees spangles and similar glittering effects. An interesting feature about the hat Io tlie right is that it is made of two materials’, velvet for the crown with satin for the flange. It is characteristic of new millinery that con trusting media be used in their fashioning. The embroidery is in chain stitch with beads interspersed. Velvet millinery Is much in evidence In colors matched to the velvet costume with which it is worn. A handsome fancy gold cord handing enhances the final model in this group. Os millinery in general it may be truly said that not for many seasons has the outlook been so promising for 'a vogue of flattering feminine hats, tlie kind that feature prettiness as well as "style.” JULIA BOTTOMLEY.

The rheumatic pains were so sharp that I could not bend to put on my shtjes. I was in such torture the last 3 months that my farm work was neglected. The indigestion was so bad that I had gas, nausea and dizzy spells frequently. I was weak, nervous, sleepless, and ! just worn out with suffering. But , today life looks different to me. My I rheumatism scarcely ever bothers me ' now and my stomach feels line. I eat hearty meals and they digest without causing gas or distress. The pains and kinks in my back are gone and I can work every day.
