A pretty tea gown always appeals to q
woman's heart and sense of beauty, and
tea gowns are to be worn the coming
season more than ever. They will be
made largely of the soft light serges
and cashmeres. both of which hang in
Lovely folds. and neither Of which get
stringy. soft lining Is necessary. but
II shonld never be heavy. Although
some OF the house gowns are minus
trains. 1t Is nevertheless a fact that the
Ideal house gown is always trained. If
a woman is short and dumpy the train
adds dignity Queen Victoria is almost
absurdlly short and broad. measuring
barely five feet, but she adds six inches
to her apparent stature by always wear
ing immensely long trains and by carry.
