Paris, Dec. BITS an English custom,
they say, this of serving o'clock tea to
ones friends each afternoon. Around
Christmas this is particularly well OBJ
served, and every hostess has her tea ia
BILE.
The custom is so firmly established now
in the American co.ony that 1t would
amount to a breach of hospitality for a
hostess to entertain any of her friends
between the hours of 4 and without Of
fering them tea. Women who entertain
a great deal and have a big circle of
friends make it a point of being at their
homes after in the afternoon.
Aside from the question of hospitality
1t is a charmingly picturesque custom.

drive and changed her street toilet for an
easy. becoming house gown. Then she
waits in her own little sittng-room

lights Of two or three tiny fairy lamps
falling on her, till some one is announced.
Not long after the first visitor is an

but she never stands and serves, for it's
considered rather restraint to any easy,
cosby conversation.
A woman has a rare chance for display
ing her own tastes when she orders 4ler
home toilettes, for fashion rules aren't the
great things to be considered in designing
these gowns. Becomingness and comfort
claim the first thoughts. one Of the sim
pie house gowns which will be worn dur
ing the holidays has full godet Of fawn
ladies' cloth skirt lined throughout with
white silk. The jacket is OF mauve satin,
cut with long points at the front that
slant up into short fun basdues at the
back. Two large buttons OF amethysts
and brilliants trim the front edge Of the
jacket. The sleeves are full puffs that
reach 20 the elbow. where they are fin
ished by frills OF white chiffon. The jacket
opens over a vest of white satin that is
covered fun with white chiffon The vest
is cut square neck, and the fulness is

These three costumes may be quoted as
examples of the very fine little house
dresses that are worn for afternoon occa-

dainty; and not half as pretty to read
about as to- behold.
