A GARLAND OF GIRLS.
The Latest Novelties in Evening
Dress, Ffchus and Lace.

Among the pretty evening gowns is
one of black Brussels net over color,
and the trimming is bands of black
satin, decorated with jet and another
of rose pink satin has white chiffon
sleeves formed of graduated ruffies or
tucks below the shirred cap. The front
of the bodice is also of chiffon, outlined
with bands of pink satin ribbons cover
ed with sequined pasSementerie which
give the figure a long-Waisted appear

and pink ribbon ties in a bow on each
shoulder. One example of white, blue
and pink brocaded silk gown has a
plain blue velvet bodice with Zouave
effect of the silk edged with white vel
vet and jet The double puffed sleeves
are of pink accordion, plated chiffon
over pink silk, and pink chiffon ruche
completes the neck. Ivory white satin
is the material of the next gown, cover
ed with white net and trimmed with
five frills of net edged with yellow Va
lerciennes lace. The bodice is draped
with net and finished with revers, epau-
let sleeves, and belt Of satin edged with
lace. A rather unique model for
dressy gown suitable for a bridesmaids
gown is carried out in primrose satin;
the bodice, cut square and bordered
with sable, opens down the front to

draping the satin around the body in
scant folds, which suffice as finish
for the bottom, and the neck has revers
of white satin, covered with black silk

ments, and a bertha of red-yellow chif-

on the shoulders and sleeves. Colored
sleeves Of tulle or velvet are seen in
many of the white satin evening gowns
and very small sleeves made by tying
a bow Of ribbon across the arm, leav-
ing the shoulder exposed, are not rare
exceptions.
Fichus of chiffon lace or Brussels net,
trimmed with Mechlin lace, and cape-like

applique, are attractive accessories of dress
this season. and to these added all sorts
of yoke collars and neckbands of fancy rib

these collar bands, and the early display

salons. 1t has been announced that
Bostons 100000 heiress, Miss Isa-
belle Perkins, has secured the services
of Mrs. Maud Howe Elliott as chaperon
for two years of travel on the con-
tinent. Mrs. Elliott is one of the most
charming young matrons in Boston
society. She is the founder of the
swell and very exclusive "wednesday
Morning Club" the author of several
novels and the daughter of Mrs. Julia
Ward Howe, whose literary and social
prestige is Of the highest in the world
of the hub, and whose home on Beacon
street is one Of the most interesting
certers Of Boston's social life. That
Mrs. Elliott has frankly entered the
field Of the professional chaperon has
given rank and dignity to an Office
which in America has heretofore had
no professional recognition. The woman
OF social standing and experience who
has accepted the position of chaperon
has conducted the arrangements with
a deprecating protest against losing
caste. The young heiress without
available chaperOnage in or out of her
own family is the sugar plum of the
professional chaperon. There are sew
eral of these dainty morsels in New
York society this season, and many
or the most successful debutS and the
most brilliant matrimonial matches of
the last few seasons have been due to
the coupS de main of the professional
representatives of the managing NAM
ma In England there are a number
of titled women who are available as
social stepping stones to young women.
The young woman in some cases is
adopted into the home of the chaperon
as ward or guest, in other cases new
establishments are opened on a scale
Of elegance corresponding with the
young woman's fortune, and the entire
transaction is conducted on business
basis.

GIDDY ,CAsTELLANE.
Anna Gould's Husband Infatuated
With an Actress.


Gable dispatches recently announced
that Count Castellane, who married
Anna Gould and her millions, had been
paying somewhat marked attention to
Mile. Marsy, the beautiful actress,
formerly of the Coincide Franchise.
Mile. Marsy, it will be remembered,
is the young woman on whom Max Lee
baudy Gle Petit Sucrier) lavished his
wealth and affections. She it was who
nursed the silly youth in his last ill
ness, contracted when serving with the
French army as required by law. Lee
baudy left her his great fortune, but
Mile. Marsy surprised the world, and
Paris particularly, by refusing to &C
cept the legacy. After Lebaudy's
death it began to be noticed that Count
Castellane was somewhat pronounced
In his attentions to the beautiful
actress. Much Of his time was passed
in her company, and the affair finally
reached SUCH proportions that Anna
Gould's American spirit asserted itself.
Then, according to all reports, there
was a terrific row between the count
and countess, but. as the latter holds
the purse, it is not difficult to guess
who was winner in the domestic con-
test. His countship reformed in hur-
ry. He has since been trying to make
amends for the depression from the
path OF virtue, initiating his wife into
Partisan society with the greatest tact,
even going to the length of superin-
tending the design of her costumes.
Paris is not surprised that Castellane
should have fallen before Mile. Marsy,
for she is described as being possessed
of well-modeled features, inimitable
grace, exquisite figure and eyes of soft
est brown. She has besides history
full of romance. A child of poverty,
she went to Paris when a young girl
and remained In obscurity for some
time. Then somebody discovered"
her, and it was not long before-as
Parisians say-she arrived Besides
being beautiful, she is an actress of no
mean order

NEW YORK, Feb. 20.-There is
new cloth called amazon on purpose
for riding habits, though it is so serv-

ready been seized upon for walking
suits. 1t is twilled very closely, and
over the surface Of the twill there is a

proof, SO that it retains it's beauty
under all circumstances. Owing to the
smooth surface it shakes free of dust
with the least effort. Its appearance
is rich as the finest satin-faced broad

THE cHILDREN,s MEALS.
Nursery Repasts Very Sensible
Custom for Little Folks.

The idea of a nursery dining room
or table is not popular among any but
the wealthy classes in this country,
and yet it has much to recommend
it. While it is true that a child
should have its meals with it's parents
often from the time he is able to eat
ordinary food, it is nevertheless true
that there are meals which it is to the
mutual advantage of child and parents
for him to eat separately.
Breakfast usually contains enough
simple dishes to make it a proper meal
for child to attend. Luncheon should
be his dinner, and he should lunch with
the family unless there are guests. But
the family dinner should not be a meal
for young children. They should have
hearty, but less stimulating meal at
about $50 p. m. in the nursery, for
they should be sent to bed at the time
the family is dining-at about Z. Their
evening meal may be superintended by
their mother. who will thus be able to
influence their table manners, but they
should not be allowed stimulating food
and society just before their bed time

COLLEGE WOMEN.
The Higher Education Does Not
Seem to Make Them Ambitious.

1t is somewhat remarkable fact
that out Of the upward Of 1000 women
of this country who are physicians,
not more than 200 have a college train
ing, according to President Thwing,
of the Western Reserve university. Of
the 1926 women preachers, and 20S
women lawyers in the country, but few
are college bred. Even more surpris-
ing is the fact that the colleges have
contributed very few of the literary
women Of the country. Most of the
women's college graduates become
teachers or ornament homes. Many
of the preachers, being good takers,
do not undertake the regulation three
years course in theology, but go right
ahead and discourse from the pulpits,
learnedly or otherwise.
Women do not, on the whole, seem
to care to pursue liberal college
course, where they have definite pro-
fessional purpose in view. They be-
come doctors through practice as
nurses and study with physicians.
They become preachers through feeling
what they count as inspiration" and

Innovation in Corset-Covers to Do
Away With Small Waists.
The latest vagary Of fashion is found
in what may be described as the Fiji
Island petticoat," and is a surprise to
even those who study fashions and are
prepared for startling innovations.
The best French designers have sent
over corset covers with two very full
ruft1es below the waist line, instead Of
the ordinary close-ftting plain finish
Each ruffle is Of embroidered or plain
Hamburg edge, and is six or eight
inches deep. One is placed above and
over the other, the upper one covering
the top edge of the lower frill. When
worn, this corset cover looks like an
abbreviated ballet skirt.
A most Objectionable feature of the
Fiji petticoat' is the amount of room
it takes up below the waist line. 1t
pads that part of woman's body that
for years she has sought to make ap-
pear as small as possible.
