The mannequins who parade the leading couturiers' creations look definitely heavier, more robust, than for several years.

That slimming and scale-watching, as well as all the minor sacrifices to which women submitted to acquire the modern streamlined silhouette, are things of the past? If so, this is a little revolution in the feminine world, but it remains to be seen whether women will continue to cling to the straight line, because they consider It more youthful. CURVES, however, are not to be interpreted as a return to popularity of the Junoesque type of beauty beloved of Reubens, Van Dyck and Jordaens.

The new. silhouette demands just as slim a waistline, with the difference that bust, shoulders and hips must be delicately rounded. Vionnet is among the leading creators who favor the intensely feminine silhouette.

Very full basques or peplums, sometimes standing away from the figure, appear on many afternoon dresses and jackets. Most of Vionnet's evening gowns are romantic, with wide, sweeping skirts, often completed by equally wide, flowing capes or long coats. Two or three models are distinctly Empire in line, with high bust line and skirt fulness massed center front and back in the form of long, loose folds or pleated panels. FULL skirts are usually attached to a bodice which extends slightly below the hips. Decoiletes are generous in front and non-existent at the back, with many off-the-shoulder bodices in the best of romantic traditions.

South cashed the ace of diamonds and led the jack of spades. Not only must the spade finesse succeed, but West should have to hold three spades including the king and 10. West covered with the king and the trick was won in dummy with the ace. The king of diamonds was cashed and a club was discarded. A diamond was returned and ruffed by declarer, and when West failed to follow South could count all the hands.

A low heart was played to the jack. Another heart was finessed and the outstanding trump picked up. The ace of clubs was played. Then spades were returned and finessed against the 10. When this succeeded, the queen and seven of spades took the last two tricks.

Oysters on occasion have been found to be a source of typhoid germs that cause epidemics. This is particularly the case when the oysters are taken from a polluted bed and are distributed under improper shipping conditions. Fruits and vegetables sometimes are blamed for transferring typhoid fever, as also are salad dressings.

If a typhoid fever carrier mixes salads, he may spread the disease. Typhoid germs usually die when they are dried, especially when they man earners sons who have recovered from typhoid, but who can in their bodies germs capable of giving the disease to other people.
