Tea Gowns.

Tea Gowns.
The tea gown to be success must be
complete IN every detail and not merely
a well-imitated Paris model. Then there
is certain type of woman who can never
attempt to wear 1t. The ordinary tailor
made girls looks entirely out of place in
these intricate masses of mystery. She
likes to be firmly incased in unyielding cor
sets and a thoroughly well-boned frock,
and she really is at her best like this
enduring, unapproachable and extremely in
earnest.
Now, it you really want to comprehend
the ideal poetry of the tea gown do not
entirely follow a Paris model. A garment
which may be beautiful in itself may be
the reverse on you. A lovely, ethereal,
fragrant flower of the west does not look
its best amid the glarng, mystic colors of
the east. A woman with a dash of the
south in her composition, with warm color
ing, can blaze" with languorous grace in
orange shades and wonderful masses of
queer embroideries, whreas the pale exotic
ioohs pest IN clouds of chiffon and lace
in the pale tones, which bring out instead
of taking away from her individual color
ing.
The tea gown of the moment is poetic
ana varied enough to suit the sollt bern
and oriental woman alike if she has taste
ana discrimination. The empire shape is
the favorite, and the corsets beneath ad-
mirably lend themselves to the idea of
suppleness, with no regularly defined waist.
Some tea gowns are fashioned after the
Vatican period in the silks of that date.
The Japanese shape also plays an i'm
portant part in the wrap of the moment
for out of doors well as for the tea
gown.
Never make the fatal mistake of think
ing that anything will do for a tea gown,
Remember it is frock, requiring the great
est thought and care in it's construction,
and the exact tones that suit must be skill
fully introduced. The lines of the figure
must not be too distinctly defined Leave a
little to the imagination,

The American Hand.
There is a distinctively American hand,
according to the description of LIE Yam
kee,'' contained in Michel Chevalier's Let
ters on North America" "In a nation
such as this he says, there can not
exist any but hands which are spatulate
and fingers which are square. The size
of the hand indicates a capacity to seize
the meaning of entire subject. and

mental activity; the thumb denotes an
equal amount of will power and common
sense, neither overriding the other. The
fingers also show a love of pleasure. Dom
mating the entire character is a keen in
tuition and a good natured spirit of criti
cism.''
A Hint Or Two.
If gloves are worn constantly at night
the hands will become yellow. Occasional
use of gloves, however, is advisable, white
kid the best, and they must be loose.
A preparation to keep hands soft and
white is made by dissolving a little white
wax in almond oil; apply this mixture

Louis Styles High in Favor.
The prevailing styles in millinery are
those of the Louis XIV and Louis XVI
periods, OF these, the toques show the
most novel touches. Instead of being much
trimmed, as was the fashion season ago,
they are markedly plain. depending for
their charm upon the oddity and chic I'M
parted to them by the milliner's skill in
construction. Long frames covered with
rich materials and reaching well over the
face often have no other trimmings than
art nouveau buckles or knots of soft, rich
velvet, than which there is nothing hand
somer. Underbrim trimmings are still used.

a knot is considered sufficient.
