George Martin. the happy-faced

he seeking to disguise his appearance
in the removal of the familiar adorn-

execution. Now he scarcely knows
himself when he glances into a mir

Accordingly he has determined to

or think, receives respectful cOls'der1-

in excuse OF many a notion, many

The debutantes Of this season in Ne"
York are remarkably free from real
fads, using the word in the sense OF
fOOlishness, and yet quite oppressed
with them. when used in the sense o
its real derivati0n-"fancy.' These 20
girls are fun OF fancies-mOre so than
ever girls were before. and because these
fancies happen TO be charming ones, the
debutantes Of the season Of 70 are more
adorable than ever.
MISS DUER'S FLOWER-ROOM.
One of the earliest Of the fads--lor as
yet the debutantes are only scheduled
to bloom, rather than being full-grOWn
buds-is that of preparing "a room to
match the favorite flower Of the young
owner. Mrs. Almcric Hugh Paget ls
responsible for this fad; and 10 set it
going I'm fun popularity, she inaugurated
it at her wedding. choosing the favorite
colon and favorite flower Of each Of her
bridesmaids. And the debutantes have
taken il up. The iiOwer-room, as pre-
pared for and by the different deou-
tantes, is q very pretty little reception
room, furnished after the Hover for
which IL is named. All around the
room stand these flowers, growing In
pots and placed In vases; and upon the
draperies, the stand-cOvers. and even
upon the bits of china and bric-a-brac,
tho flower is repeated. until all is SYM
phony of the one color.
The prettiest of these flower reception
rooms belong TO Miss Kitty Duer that
New York bud who is going 10 wrest
the beauty prize from all others who
have carried IT, for many seasons past.
She Is as beautiful as ever Sally iargoua

The principal thing taught by the IA
brio class is that woman should never
buy a gown until she has tried 1t on.
"But this is for goods in the piece" you
say.
Well, the same principle holds for both

this or that" unless she has tried on the
goods beforehand.
