Paris, Nov. 9.-Mrs. Austin Lee. the
woman who is SO much talked about in
connection with the CaSteliane yachting
trip. on which occasion. the countess is
said to have become jealous of her fair
guest. has set the fashion III backs. Her
gowns are built, not so much with front
trimmings, but with back decorations.
When she goes out she manages to allow
everybody to see her back ana a long,
graceful sweep it is with the princess
lines and so she scores Il triumph over
her less wise sister who forgats the back
of her gowns in the joy Of dressing her
bust and front breadth.
Mrs. Lees gowns are too numerous and
exquisite to enumerate. Imagine one
of pastel blue crepe de chine. just the
gown for the picture show, or an after
noon at a bazaar! The yoke is a deep
one continued over the sleeves. 1t is
made of black satin II upon the satin
there are empiecements of white satin
cut in curious curves to look like lily
flowers. This same trimming extends
around the foot of the gown about eight
cen inches from the floor.
The hat with the gown. for all gowns
have hats, is made Of the pastel blue
crepe de chine set in box nlaits around
a srnal crown of lace. a Very large
bird is upon the front of it. The hat
is of white felt with White flowers under
the brim.

There is a persistent effort being made

a movement which will undoubtedly suo-

return to the moderately full skirt.

of viewing the drawings for severaI very

FOOL FOR LUCK.

"You can bet it is always a fool for
luck said the man who has his nose
to the grindstone all his life, says the
Washington Star. Now. there was Jack
Shane of Tennessee, who drew $25, 900 in a
lottery. Jack didn't know enough to go
in out of the wet, but he had a little
money and he bought a ticket that won,
while l got 10 and didn't fetch a cent.
The winning number was AZ, and when l
saw Jack I asked him how he happened
to take that number.
We'll he said, you see, it was this
way. l had a dream one night and I
dreamt that the door of my room opened
all of a sudden and a big number seven
walked in. Then right after it came
other sevens, and more, and more, till
the room was chuck full and I was about
smothered under them. Then I woke up
and began thinking it over. l knowed
that one seven wasn't the number to
draw. nor II, MOI TIT, for there was a
million of them, n no lottery had that
numbers. But I figured awhile and

of the cost of their trip, even in such a
minor detail as the cost of paper for the

of PAPER with the food supplied to the
