cloth-a delicate
silver gray with a
suggestion OF
purple. 1t is one

ors, and bears the
poetical name of
"cloud gray" The
suit is trimmed
throughout with
a narrow gold
cord knotted to
form loops.
The skirt, which
is most elegant in
cut, is carefully
adjusted to the
figure, touching
in the front, and
just sweeping in
the back. The hip
yoke is cut into
long strap ends,
piped with black
braid and finish
ed with gold cord
loops. Inserted
pleats start from

forming a flare
with a machine
stitched border.
The pretty blouse
jacket is almost
tight fitting and
is caught into a
shaped belt with
tab ends. The
stole cape shows
a vest effect with
a slashed border
piped with black
braid and finished
with tiny gold
decorations. The
stole is carried
over the shout

design so as to
form a prettily

Pie Puts Cordial in His Tea and LUiSheS That
the american Uon1en Liked
Cigarettes Better

| you will learn and pretty soon value
as 40 the women of my country"
Some of the society young women
have accepted the Ambassadors gifts
of cigarettes and presented them to
their brothers or men friends, who
vouch for the charm of the foreign
product
! One Washington belle, who was
bassy, always accepted the cigarette
which the Ambassador invariably
proffered every time they met. She
tied each one with dainty ribbon and
strung them all together till she had
yard or more A short time ago she
was married, and not knowing what
to do with her trophies, presented
them to her husband for a wedding
present.
These are, in brief, some of the sur
roundings and personal characteristics
of the leading diplomat in Washing
ton. They do not, however, indicate
the success that has attended his ca
reer in the diplomatic service, which
| he began in the Foreign Office in St.
Petersburg when he was only I7H
years old. He inherited taste for
this profession, as his grandfather was
Russian Minister to Rome and his
father was in the Russian diplomatic
service His brother has high po-
sition at the Court of ST. Petersburg,
and his son-in-law, Count Mengden,
is aide-de-camp to the Emperor.
The Count can trace noble lineage
for many centuries, the family origi-
nal1y being from Italy. In its early
days many members of it were re-
nowned as astronomers. In the sew
enteenth century Dominica Cassini was
appointed director of the Observatory
at Paris, was succeeded by his son and
then, for two hundred years without
break, Cassini was in charge of
that observatory. At the recent Paris
exposition the name Cassini was one
most prominent in the astronomical
department, distinguished for long SER
vice and remarkable discoveries.

mand at dinners and swell social func-
tons. "E1ow can secure Count Cas-
SINH" is the first inquiry of the Wash
ington matron when she begins plan
ming notable dinner party.
With the ultra-fashionable set Cas-
SIM is all the rage. If he cannot ac-
cept an invitation to a function of
society leader, the poor woman is in
despair, while the fortunate one who
secures this lion is the envy Of all.
Count Cassini has naturally drifted
into this position of social favorite, the
honors coming to him on account of
his geniality, culture and charming So
cial qualities. A thorough cosmopoli-
tan, he is a graceful and gracious
guest and host and master of the re-
fined art of entertaining.
Responsible
For Washington's Adoption
Of the Continental Sunday.
The Ambassador has not commend
ed himself to all the good people in
Washington. In fact, he has excited
much adverse criticism among the
good church people, who are opposed
to certain customs that he has intro
duced, and which society is taking UP
with avidity.
1t can be said that the Count Cassini
fcc far
are more directly responsible than
any other foreigners for popularizing
in Washington the Continental Sun
day, which makes the afternoon and
evening of that day time of feasting
and hilarity.
Ever since their arrival here it has
been the custom at the embassy for
guests to be entertained at dinner Sun
day night, followed by an evening of
sociability At first only the mem
bers of the embassy staff were invited,
but the hospitality was gradually ex-
! tended to outsiders, until now invita-
tons to this Sunday evening enter
| tainment are eagerly sought and &C
cepted by the leading members of
| Capital society.
The Ambassadors daughter, the
Countess Cassini, has played an i'm
portant part in making his residence
here notable. When they first came
to Washington she was not his daugh-
ter. Whenever she appeared in public
she was constantly correcting people
who addressed her and inquired
about her father" 'You mean my
uncle" she would say. 1t would have
been more correct if she had said
grand-uncle, for she is by birth the
grand niece of the Count. About a
year ago Count Cassini formally
adopted her as his daughter, the cere--
mony receiving the appreciation and
sanction of the Emperor, and she is
now the Ambassadors daughter and
legally entitled to the title of Coun-
tess.
Since her adoption the Countess Cas-
