Chic Tea Gowns

Never were tea gowns more beWltch-

leading dressmakers has one made Of
a light tint OF ecru yelling, with a
slight vatican at the back and a full
flowing over robe, the short empire
bodice outlined with a broad gallon. II

trimmed with beautiful lace applique
the elbow sleeves having double ru1les
falling deeper from the elbow than in
front Another is a light blue silk
yelled with white chiffon, soft and
flowing. giving no indication of the
lines whatever, but developing the
beauty OF the figure. 1t is trimmed
round the hem with narrow insertions
of the finest embroidery, and the
bodice. or what replaces the bodice, is
of the same gOssamer make.

Future Of the Mss

That distinguished Frenchman Of
letters, NJ. Marcel Provost, has lately
written in the Figaro on ''The Future
Of the Kiss" NJ. Provost takes as his
text the sad case of an Austrian vol
unteer who, on his return from the
front, was surrounded by some three
hundred young women, and well-nigh
kissed to death. In point of fact, he
had to be conveyed to the nearest
chemists in a fainting condition
feebly murmuring: There were toe
many-toO many"
There are some Old-fashioned people
who might regard this incident with
feelings akin to disgust. Not so NJ
Provost He halls it as "une bonnie
nouvelle" Why? Because It confounds
those croakers who prOphesied thai
woman would lose her attractiveness
as mans competitor in the struggle
for life"
Every woman is at heart a rake
sang the poet, wantonly, and the mod
ern woman confirms the justice of his
dictum Formerly, says M. Provost
woman had to submit to being kissed
now it is to be man. and men are, in
general, sufficiently disposed to submit
to kisses"
But what is to be the future Of kiss.
ing? NJ. Provost foresees a great one
The kiss is to be placed on a higher
plane than it has ever occupied before
It is to be reserved for those who have
distinguished themselves. In future
the man who desires a kiss will have
to blow up a ship, kill few Thousand
savages, or in some similar way benefit
suffering humanity.
It is an inspiring thought. The mod
ern knight Grant will have ever before
his eyes the vision of the crowded
quay, packed with kissers of all kinds
and ages, their mouths itching, and
he will take good care not to return
We do not deny that the prospect of Z
kiss may inflame a man to do grea'
deeds; but three hundred? No! Sc
much depends on the kisser.

Notes From WOman's Realm.
Some Little Things

Housekeeping is essentially a mat
ter of small things, and the only course
for a housekeeper is to comfort herself
with the saying that little things on
little wings bear little souls to
heaven" and If that seems a trifle too
disrespectful a way to speak of her
soul, well. she must then comfort
herself with the beautiful legend of the
building of st. Sophia of old and re-
member the result Of a few handfuls
of straw In short, housekeeping, like
politics, is a good deal a matter OF
compromise, or, to speak plainly, OF
cutting your coat according to your
cloth. If necessity enforces a some
what large expenditure, say, on butch
er's meat, a corresponding economy
must be effected on something else, and
it is only by thus skilfully balancing
ones averages that even the largest
household can be satisfactorily con.
trolled. In q way the larger the house
hold, the smaller relatively are the ex
penses, for things work in more salts
factorily, whilst the sums are il
themselves sufficiently large to maxi
reductions or extravagances notice
able, and, so to speak, respectable. II
the young hOusel1eeper especially
dime or two saved weekly seems to-
paltry to bother about, and, moreover
such bother may perhaps rightly la,
oneself open to the cry of "meanness.
Yet reckoned by the year these tin
sums mount up to one considerable
enough in a small income, and max
all the difference between comfort an
"sl1rimping," especially as the dime j
question probably applies to nor
than one article in daily use.

Paris, Aug l0.--ln a long interview
The French ambassador TO the United

that with intelligence and good luck

O'Rell Talks Of Women

The American woman is the only
woman, however beautiful and learned
she may be with whom a man feels
perfectly at his ease" so says Max
O'Rell in his new book, Her Royal

American women TO be the most in

men in the world, and do not see why

Are Making Collars This Way

A bit of fashion gossip floats over the
sea to the effect that charming collars
are being made out of old lace or grass
lawn handkerchiefs. And If the latter
are of extra large size, they are also
being utilized for fichus and berthas by
the addition of good lace around the
edges. Girls whose grandmothers pos
sess such lavender scented treasures
are wheeling the old ladies to hand
them over, and under their deft manip-
ulations some exceedingly pretty bits
of neckwear are being fashioned, for
this dainty muslin embellished with
old cambria embroidery is the last cry
of that very vocal dame called Fash
ion.
Vandyked incrustations of ecru gui-
pure ornamented with large flowers
embroidered with silver are among the
last and smartest ways of embelllsh-
ing the pristine simplicity OF white
pidue gowns likewise, says the fash-
ion rumors. Narrow black viewer
edged with a silver gallon and over.aid
patterns is another new style for re-
iieving the classic severity OF autumn
washing gowns.
