1t Is Given by Lady Lennox, the ''Bes
Dressed Woman in London"
FORK Mail and Express

New York Mail and Express
your New York women are the best
dressed in the world. All London and
Paris society can tell the American woman
at a glance by the beautiful cut of her
gown and her irreproachable way of wear
ing it,"
She who says this is 1.-THE best-dressed
woman in London" Lady Gordon Len
nox is called in England Lady Lennox
arrived yesterday in the Celtic, and in her
apartments at the Waldorf-Astoria to-day
was dressed in a striking gown of red vel
vet, relieved by black silk trimmings Her
hat was of the picture type, black and
white, with an ostrich feather encircling
it's rim. white pOlka-dOt veil sOftened
the bright color of her face. Lord and
Lady Lennox will stay at the Waldorf only
a few days and then go West to be the
guests of ex-senator WOlcOtt, in Colorado.
1t is Lady Lennoxs first visit to this coun-
try. She is on a trip for her health.
Il do not know how / received the title
of the best-dressed woman in England,
said she, when the subject of dress was
suggested. ITO my mind the American
women are the finest dressers in the
world. We in London can tell them at
glance. They look well dressed because
they look comfortable. Comfort is the
guide in the selection of the well-dressed
woman's wardrobe. The success of the
American woman in the art of dressing is
in the primary question which she always
asks herself: VIII this become me? She
does not follow the fashion slavishly. as
does her French rival, who trails after
the fashion year in and year out, with no
thought of whether the gown is becoming
or not.
There is a wrong impression abroad
that ii takes money TO dress well. The
simplest dress. well chosen, Of good color
and well fitted. is all that is needed. EX
travagances often mar rather than beau
tify.
Lady Lennox has not brought a big
wardrobe with her. She says that she
does not like TO be considered as one who
has only thought for dress. dress, all the
time.
Il have a broader view of existence than
that" she said. Il wear what L think
becomes me and is comfortable. The new
fashions from year To year are only inven-
tions 10 catch the eye for a moment. The
woman who dresses becomingy and com
fortably Is always well dressed. The pas
serby never asks is that the fashion.
Lady Lennox is an advocate of the short
skirt. She had several in her steamer
trunk which she will wear on long tramps
out in Colorado. These tailOr-made skirts.
she says, have revolutioniZed the rules of
dress all over the world. Lady LennOX
knows too, for she has travelled extern
sively in South Africa and has seen the
short skirt and heavy boot at every turn.
"It would be hard 10 say. said she.

Lord Salisburys condition of health is a
