The Butte inter mountain. [volume] (Butte, Mont.) 1901-1912, 1901-09-07

in her own nome, the house beau-
tiful presents to her no more at
tractive possibilities than in the matter
of negligees. Easy, loose lines both con-
ceal defective figure and reveal a pretty
one, and the gentle diversions of after
noon tea and informal luncheons per-
hitting this picturesqueness of CO.'S
tune, it naturally follows that Septem-
Der breezes have waited world of house
clothes upon U.S. Indeed, so universal
has been the rush in this direction that
the woman who has not provided her
self with a dainty matinee or tea gown
of some sort may be likened to the fool
ish virgin who had no oil in her lamp.
Those of the wise maidens shine more
brightly than ever. for yellow. the golden
yellow of the saints aureole, is one OF
their favorite tints.
-
yellow in all it's varieties has been seen
too much this summer to call it an en-
tirely new craze. But these golden tints
mentioned, as well as certain saffron
and ochre shades, are certainly novelties
this side of the Atlantic. Magnificent
yellow lace Jackets have been seen in
Paris, delicate Innings in pastel colors
contrasting charningly with the rich
WeDS spread over them.
So far not many of these Jackets have
crossed the briny, but tea gowns and
matinees are taking to the same warm
laces, which beautifully set off pale huea
mulls and liberty tissues.
In form many of the tea Jackets show
bolero or bodice effects. under which
loose killed, deep points will hang half
way to the knees. The lace edges this.
and is sometimes inserted above in sew
eral rows.
" On the short matinees the insertions
fake whatever lines are becoming to the
figure, but the bolero suggestion is apt
to be accumulated. A killed founce, fall
ing to the elbow from pointed shoulder
cap, is considered pretty sleeve; and
pale blue silk finished lawn and black
chantilly lace are found effective mate
rails.
A girlish jacket for a maiden in her
teens is of apple blossom pink with
saffron lace yoke and insertions. LIB
erty silk, in fine killings, Is the tex
ture, and, like the other two jackets In
the cut, the sleeves are only elbow
length.
Coming to the third lady, one sees
suggestion of the peacock's tail in the
lower shaping of her fine reception jack
ct. The resemblance is not confined to
it's form, for in the original the skirt
of this garment glittered with the rlch
blues and green's of the Beau Brum-
mel of birds. changeable sDangles and
shaded velvet applications providing the
scheme of color. The background was
of white net, with each flower outlined
and tendrils traced by black buttonhole
stitch. bertha Of the spangled net,
which likewise formed the puffed sleeves,
draped the shoulders becomingly, and
the jacket was worn with plain net
blouse and demitrainsd skirt of white
Lyons silk, delicate audacity possible
only to q pretty woman.
The exceeding decorativeness OF appli-
cations that contrast sharply with the
background is nowhere more noticed
than on the fine automobile coats. smart
Newport and Tuxedo women are lately
wearing. Over some deeply toned silk
or velvet will be spread magnificent de-
signs in white or pale colored taffeta.

ing deftly with the shape of collar and

and rich medalli0ns will emphasize the
bust. Abe deep turnover collar will be
in the same texture as this surface fg-
uring, and sometimes down each front
of the garment there will be three jew
eled buttons holding satin or velvet
rosettes with ends. These are known to
the learned as "cockades."
OF course. as suggestions to the null
titude. such coats present small hope,
as few are rich enough TO buy them
and still fewer skilled enough to make
them. And they are decidedly out OF
place in the democratic street cars. which
are more frequently moGes Of convey
ances than are automobiies.
