etrangere, curious animal, and not quite
civilized to his thinking, is always spur
to Frenchmans wit. For this reason, if
for no other, it is always wise for visitors
to Paris to costume themselves as much
like Parisians as possible. That is the
feminine portion, of course, for the men of
Paris are as notorious for bad dressing as
the women are for good.
Lovely Tea Gowns.
With all this contempt for the fashions
of Great Britain it may seem singular to
hear that not only this country, but Paris.
depends upon London for its choicest tea
gowns. In the days of the esthetic craze
England studied clinging picture effects
with lasting intent and today the house
gowns which the liberty silk people
yearly deport are considered the most
charming that can be bought. A retail
shop in Paris is always well supplied with
them. and those that find their way to this
country are worn by the smartest women.
An English tea gown pictured is made of
liberty velveteen, claret red striped with
bisque. This forms the train portion. the
chemise-like fall of the empire front being

about the matter as yet, for the leg skirts
are too ugly TO be universally adopted. A
few extremists will take to them and the
rest of us-those to whom femninity is
dearer than all elSe-will cherish more ten
derby than ever the honorable under-tog-
gerry which has given pretty good satisfac-
ton up to date.
Another device to create slenderness at
the hip line is found in petticoats with a
deep yoke to fasten to the bottom of
long corset. Imported corsets with skirts
for this purpose show a uniformity of
color very attractive. For instance, a cor
white lace and ribbon, is provided with
Jupon of white and gray striped alpaca.
Other corsets of blue or black will be ac-
companied by skirts of satin, silk or ba-
tiste in the same shade the last sort very
charming with insets and fiounce edgings
of black lace or footing.
The one color scheme is continued with
house clothes to the shoes and stockings.
Thus costume dinterieur of blue or
gray crepe will show accessories in the
same tint, the effect being very pretty and
elegant in movement.
Shoes and Stockings.
Again it is observed that some women of
good tone in dress are taking to white
openwork stockings with black patent
leather pumps for house wear and after
the long reign of black stockings the in
novation seems quite dashing. But, of
course, feet and ankles must be shapely to
support this. White has the effect of star
tlngly emphasizing blemishes, though
nothing could be prettier than a white
dressing of pretty eXtremities.
Speaking of feet, and the consideration
they should exact, news comes from Eng
land that smart society women have re-
acted against trailing skirts for street
wear They have decided on walking jupes
that shall escape the ground by at least
two inches; but remembering the proverb-
al nd Of oh
tremities, one marvels at the courage it
must take to display them. In Paris the
English visitor is always recognized by her
feet, as well as by the hard knob of hair
that ornaments the back of her head
"Anglaise!' any passerby says audibly,
for though famed as nation for polite
ness, the French are singularly defective in
the matter of street manners. And the

The use of jetted medallons is marked on

with embroidered silk tulle. which formed

Such costume is supplied in London for
the modest sum of $50. Here it is somewhat
more expensive, of course, but all things
considered, the English house gown is at no
time an eXtravagant purchase. OF a genre
distinct in itself, it can never be recog-
niZed as old-fashioned. Then the mate
rails the English manufacturers use for
them-theSe luStrouS velveteens, light,
loosely woven woods in rich plain tones,
and thick soft silks that fall as gracefully
are of a sort to wear forever.
The Seasons Wraps.
In the matter of driving coats, plain af-
fairs that need certain simple cut to give
them swagger, London is likewise the Nee
ca of the modish pilgrim. Goats are never
plain enough in Paris,' declare the people
who are supposed to know the Subtleties of
fashion; so the best of our trig, plain coats,
1t seems, come from the city across the
channel. On the other hand, the dressy af-
fairs must have the Partisan stamp, and
charming indeed are some of the Louis
XIV, XIV and XVI models great dress
makers are now displaying. These gar
ments, which are made of handsome cut
velvets and plain satins in the heaviest
qualities, superbly set off a plain skirt a
velvet jacket going with a silk or satin
skirt, and one of satin topping a velvet or
cloth jupe. Sometimes the whole costume
is made of velvet, which seems somehow to

Special Correspondence Of The Evening Star.
PARIS, September 2S, 1901.
The English and American colonies here
xre mourning the death of President Nc
Kinley very sincerely, and social festivi-
ties among them have for a time been de-
ferred. France. however, is just as gay
as though anarchists did not flourish and
presidents fall.
The visit of the czar and czarina bright
ened the aspect CT Paris wonderfully, al
though their imperial majesties have not
visited the city. The gowns worn by some
of the grand danes at the gala performance
given at the Chateau Compiegne Theater
were really magnificent. The czarina her
self was perhaps the most inconspicuously
dressed woman in the glittering ASSEMBLY
She wore a simple toilet of black spangled
lace. The czarina is a granddaughter of
Queen Victoria and is therefore in mourn
ing for that august lady as well as for her
maternal aunt. the late Empress Frederick
of Germany. On her head the czarina wore
diadem and around her fine white throat
five rows of pearls. She displayed no or
ders and would probably have preferred to
dispense with the diadem, as she is dano-
CratiCally simple in her tastes, but courr
etiquette made it wearing imperative. Many
persons We're amused when Nine. Loubet
took her place in the box with the imperial
lady, for this daughter of the people was
fairly glittering with gems. a diamond
tiara no less magnificent than that of
the czarina encircled her brow. while sprays

Many stately fabrics are being reintro-

Jevelry Novelties.

The newest chains are very simple, the
gold links small and at wide intervals a
few gems are introduced. The tawdry bead
have not a smart appearance. Some of the
latest charms ares so beautifully and artis-
ticaliy enameled that they are quite costly

shapes are now beautifully jeweled.

suit the picturesque coat models better
than a combination of materials as with
their jeweled buttons and white satin and
lace trappingS they all belong to a period
when magnificent materials were in order.
A long skirt entirely without trimming
and showing in many cases a very narrow
front panel, is the usual jupe for one of
these jackets. Elaborate flowing sleeve
effects distinguish many of them giving,
with soft undersleeves and rich wrist frills
of lace, rather fancy dress look. Pointed
cape collars in heavy lace, coming below
the shoulder blades at the back and as long
in front, are also seen on them.
Bizarre Headgear.
For time French millinery found little
favor in New York, the general verdict
being that it was too extravagant for our
quieter tastes. This year such charge
can certainly not be brought against Par
isian headgear, for in contrast to some of
the wild freaks evolved by American trim
mers, Paris hats seem as modest as the
wayside violet. A low broadness is the
characteristic feature of all hats on the
turban principle, and by this is meant
draped hats, where, if there is a brim, it
is at least not defined. Trimmings of
feather breasts put to lie fatty, and
velvets and dull finished silks blend harmo-
niously and fold in mass that is as cum
ming as heavy, for the result of such a hat
is invariably charming on the right head.
Few of the trying stiff crowns which
we have been introduced to here appear.
The best model in the French headpiece is
intended to- be generally identifying and
not excite notice at any point, SO it comes
about that when scrutinized in the hand
the Paris hat seems to the uninitiated
rather a careless and homemade affair. 1t
is only when 1t is on the head that you see
the difference-all the difference that lies
between the right thing and the wrong

EATING FISH.

It is not good form to ask for Sec
ond helping Of fish.
It is considered extremely bad form
to use q knife in dissecting fish.
A little modern fish knife, with an in
genious fork arrangement on one side,
Is now made.
A bit of lemon Is served with broiled
and baked fish, and it is in correct form
to use the fingers in expressing the
juice.
Potatoes are considered a proper &C.
cessory to the fish course.
Sliced cucumbers, with plain French
dressing, are also served.
With boiled fish the potatoes are
also usually boiled, cut into bits or
scooped out and garnished with little
melted butter and chopped parsley.
Never use the fingers to separate the
bones from the eatable portion Of fish.
The bones must be evaded with such
dexterity as one can command without
other aid than such as bit Of bread
held in the left hand may furnish.

Gambling.

The writer once spent Saturday
afternoon in the study of dignitary of
the church while the ecclesiastic strug-
gled in vain to frame an argument
against gambling to be presented to the
congregation on the morrow. He aban-
doned the attempt. Far be it from a
literary journal to assert powers the
possession of which the professionally
religious are fam to disclaim, yet with
submission we even venture to believe
that ut least one cogent and effective
argument lies against all forms Of gam.
bling-one, namely, based on the truth
that wealth, great or small, is trust
and therefore may not be put in risk.
The moralist may declare that the
gambler gets, or at least wants to get,
something for nothing. Men will laugh
They know better. The winner gave
his chance to lose for his winnings
For his losses the winner got his
chance to win. But ask the speculatol
whether he would gamble with trust
funds held by him for orphans and
then suggest to him the one great truth
that is selling hold of mems conscience
the most hopeful sign in these perplex
ed days of social unrest, that men art
trustees Of all that they call their own
Current Literature.
