that having such a luxury at home, instead
or hurting their business, assists it, for
women getin the habit of the frequent steam
and vapor bath and cannot go without it.
And half the time they will not take the
trouble to get one up at home.
Patu was the first woman to have a
private steam and vapor bath, and her com.
piexion is said to depend largely upon IL,
although Patti certainly does use cosmetics
of wonderful properties. She has made a
study OF them, she says. Her bath has
three rooins-a steam, a bath and resting
room, but this Is not necessary, BY any
means. PATHS pretty young friends de-
light in this bath.
An. American gentleman travelling in the
Orlent saw women whose chief duty in life
is to keep themselves soft and young They
take so many baths that they hardly know
at what hours they will be disenga seti
from the bath. "If American women wouId
stop everything else and bathe like these
Orlentals. they would dazzle the sun in
brilliant beauty" said this romantic gentle
man.
But American women are not going to
stop everything else,'' though during the
season when. Identification of body and
spirit is on the tapis they may devote them
selves with characteristic artior To the
perfection of the former.

The gorgeousness OF the tea gowns
shown in the smart shops quite rivaled
the bali gowns they showed me at most

simply stupendous. When L gasped over
the price of one of three elaborate ere

back and front and fell in great heavy folds.
The Marie Antoinette fchu to be worn
with 1t was of deep cream chiffon with
frills of wide real lace. The ends OF the
nchu came nearly TO the hem Of the dress.
The high crush collar of chiffon had two
very full wide rosettes at the sides. The
seeming looseness of these gowns is a
mockery, for under each of them is q tight
fitting silk slip fitted and bound as carefully
as an outside waist. a chic gown for a
tall, willowy blonde, who is passing second
mourning was of black aud white.
The tight-fitting princess slip of white
satin was worn under an acoordion-pIaited
black chiffon gown. The long yoke had a
pointed fichu that hung nearly to the
waist line back and front. The very fun
elbow sleeves were plated with a frll
OF black tuIle over white. A tour de cou
that finished the neck was a full ruff of
black tulle that stood out in Elizabethan
fashion.

negligee to make it altogether attractive.

On the Boulevard des Invalides. which
was once part of the Faubourg Saint
Germain, live the Prince and Princess de
Saigon. Their old-fashioned, roomy hotel
is an imposing old building, aud would
attract attention of itself, though the long
line of carriages that wait at all times
before the hotel and suggest u never
ending hospitality is perhaps the most dis
tincdve feature OF the place.
Unless one knew of the great number
of old French families centered just here,
who prefer this corner of Paris 10 the
gayer Champs EIysees. they might consider
the hotel of the Princess dc SagOn 4 bit
isolated. The Princess is a most original
woman, a great leader in society, and 4
woman of marvellous amount OF tact.

IN GOLD SATIN.
One that she wore the other morning
was of pale gold embossed satin, with
front of cream accordion plated mousse
line de sole and bands of lifeline. The
long yoke of deep cream lace was finished
at the armhole seams with labots of the
mousSeline de sole. over the fall elbow
there was a fall OF the heavy cream lace,
bordered with narrow band of the zite
line.
The collar, which was a continuation
of the yoke and very high, was bordered
with q band OF the fur. Not the least
attractive thing about this original COS
tune was the antique gold belt, with great
topaz clasps.
A friend who was visiting the princess
wore IN exquisite gown OF old rose velvet.
The full front was OF white satin, richly
embroidered In silver. Over this front was
box plait of velvet, confined at the waist
with a crush girdle OF the embroidered satin.
The full, cape-like collar, of accordion
plated cream chiffon has a high Medicis
collar of the embroidered satin, and nine
long points extending to the bottom of the

SOME hUXuRloUs BATHS
IN KeAhy-scENzED vApoRs.

To have a Turkish bath at home is n
luxury to which women may aspire. but
which few reach. That such a luxury can
be manufactured almost entirely at home
and conducted in ones own boudoir or bath

result of many shekels as their reward.
one of the most profitable of these ideas
is the Turkish bath at home, and it isn't
stretching it any to say that the woman
who invented the home Turkish bath this
season has assisted in placing nearly 100
in the homes OF different women.
TURKEY AT HOME
This is the way she manages And, as it
isn't difficult, any woman might do il from
therecipe, which, by the way, wasfor along
time kept a secret. Bat it isn't patented,
and any woman with enough ingenuity can
have Turkish bath OF her own at her home
without much trouble.

JAPANESE TEA.

!" HE ladies OF the japanese legation
w have their particular mode of
brewing their beverage. From
l. kettle of boiling water they pour
into an earthen or china teapot
enough to heat the pot Thoroughly; then
they empty out the water, and put in the
tea, over which they pour boiling water,
let stand for five minutes, and serve. The
teapot must not touch the stove. A little
teacozy of japanese paper is Capped over
the teapot the moment the water is poured
on, and 4 delicious cup of tea is thus Sc
cured without having extracted the in
furious ingredicnt-the tannin. The Jap
anese are very generous with their material,
using twice as much tea as the Americans
to the same quantity OF water.
