Americans fail to realize that Europeans
recognize no social or class distinction IN
this country. Our people know that this
Is republic, thai It has been republic
for more than century and that the prih
cipal doctrine upon which the entire nation.
al fabric is founded is that Of universal
equality. They cannot, therefore, under
stand that there should be any kind Of class
distinction or gradations OF society. In
their eyes all Americans are equal, and the
question as to what coterie or clique their
American acquaintance belong TO in this
country weighs but very little with the
grand monde Ia Europe. 1t IL utterly i'm.
material to them whether their American
acquaintance has ever had grandfather OF
not or II he had, who his grandfather was.
They do not care one brass farthing whether
he or she happens to be born million
aire," or made millionaire" and they
take their American friends purely and en-.
tirely on their individual merits, altogether
irrespective Of the social status and pres.
tige they may enjoy on this side OF the At
lantic.
But once an American has succeeded III
getting himself accepted by the best Euro
pean society his position is really most
delightful one. since he is regarded rs be
yond the pale OF class distinction and is al
lowed freedom and latitude which
would never be accorded to any native, nc
matter how high his or her rank. Not
withstanding all that is claimed to Tn,
contrary, there are relatively very few
Americans who may really be said to hav,
penetrated the inner circles Of European
society.-Vogue

hitherto. Long shoulder seams, or rath-
or, sleeves set in below the point Of the
shoulder and made tight at the tops, arc
seen on many gowns, but they do not pro

with much less trouble.
The blouse bodice is still worn and will
probably be worn all winter. Tho belt is
now made of folded material like the bod

to the figure just below the waist, like n

weight Is used for this foundation, or hair

light gray cloth. The godet skirt opens
