Moons by coming to my cottage to-
morrow precisely at TWO CLOCK. l shall
have ices and cool drinks and we can
all emDroider and chat?"
One OF the necessary features of q
custom of this kind is much fine dress
ing A New York dressmaker who
makes q speciality of boudoir dresses
says she has received orders for no less
than twenty-five flmy robes, ali differ
ent, each one to be more beautiful than
the last, and all To be sent home by ALL
gust 20. as on that date there will be q
very dressy b0udoir afternoon in d large
cottage on the ElbertOn road.
That much-discussed young woman,
Miss Fair. has unique ideas for room
dresses. She gets up kind that would
do for any occasion. They are made
after "a pattern which has no sleeves at
ell, yet IL is not in the least like a Jap
anese kokomo. It's back is full and
flowing. It's sides fit the figure, but
Ehe sleeves are very long strip Of ma4
terial put into the arm hole like @
sleeve, but wrapping around the arm
like q large deep fold that covers the
hands or may be pushed back to the
elbows. The striped gowns or this
kind arc tigers and the silk lace ones
robes So much for q distinction
wi-hout much difference.
Children are not the only ones that
con wear their arms uncovered in The
daytime joyfully declared an heiress
whose plump, pretty arms are the de-
light of her bodice-maker, FOR We can
and do wear our arms uncovered every
day of our liyes-every afternoon Ii
is the fashion at the very comfortable
b0udoir afternoons to have only
shoulder puff for sleeve.
ENTERTAINING THE JEROME
SISTERS.
The two sisters OF Lady Randolph
Churchill Mrs Jack Leslie and Mrs.
Frewen. were entertained at a seashore
cottage the other day by a very clever
hostess. who chose an afternoon for
them. AS they are in deep mourning
many guests could not be invited, and
as the hostess had @ house party, the
drawing room could not be given up 10
an Afternoon for her women friends.
So several connecting rooms and bou-
door of her boudoir in a very beautl-
came the ladies Of the surrounding
country. driving up in Victorias and
aighting with as stately grace as
though going to a Patriarch's ball.
The hostess received her guests at the
dooor Of her boudoir in very beauti-
ful robe with Wattau plat at front and
back and immense chiffon puffs Of pale
pinE for sleeves, while the gown itself
was rose color. Mrs Leslie and Mrs.
Freweu wore respectively white lace
draped over black and black gauze
over white crepe cloth. No jewelry OF
any kind appeared at the afternoon,
and after a long, coy chat and idle
pulling OF crewels through pretty tapes
ries the ladies separated and went
home i'm their carriages.
Debutantes who wish to do things q
little more brilliantly than any one else
darken their rooms by pulling down
Venetian blinds Most Of the summer
/ cottage rooms are furnished with lleA-
metal fans that run by electric power
cooling the air. These fans are con-
cealed behind pots Of growing flowers
and so the lowered blind does no SUMO
