course, on the expensive garments, and
of very fine quality, but some of the
most beautiful chemises, drawers and
corset covers have only very narrow
lace, and a rather small quantity OF
that, supplementing the delicate em-
broidery. The laces which are most
popular among fashionable women are
Cluny, Valenciennes and what is known
as baby" Irish all of which wash
well and are altogether suitable as well
as beautiful. The Valenciennes and
baby Irish are most used on the under
garments and are mixed with the Cluny
sometimes. Guipure and Valenciennes
together are much used on nlghtgowns.
1t is still very fashionable to use two
kinds of lace on all garments, but
especially on nightgowns, the simpler
mode of trimming in which only one
kind of lace and some embroidery are
used, being considered in better taste
for undergarments. Night robes how
ever, are trimmed most deliberately with
wide and heavy lace.
Chiffon Nightgowns Not Practicable
Chiffon has been used for underwear
by a number of fashionable shops and
has been received with favor as a

unique material for nightgowns. 1t has
not found favor for other undergar-
ments, and even for night robes 1t is,
in reality too flimsy and fanciful. or
course, wash chiffon only is used, but
even that requires to be washed with
great care or it may be cleaned. Some
how, this hardly seems necessary when
batiste is quite as pretty, and is in
reality an even finer material than chif-
fon. Chiffon cannot be expected to
wear a satisfactory length Of time con-
sidering what must be the original
price of such an expensive garment,
OF course, it's very extravaganza might
add to it's charm for some women, but
after all the actual beauty of garment
counts even against the craze for ex-
travagance, and the chiffon nightgown
or undergarment is not, in fact, any
thing like as beautiful as the more
sensible linen batiste one. There is little
doubt that the vogue of the chiffon
nightgown will be but brief one.
Pure white is considered in the best
taste for undergarments and night
robes, but there are also shown many
exquisite creations in pale colors for
those whose wardrobe is sufficiently
elaborate to admit of great variety.

Better no trimming on ones under
wear; better machine made underwear
than ruined eyes.
Handwork, however, despite this eau
ton, is the constant cry of the new
underwear. Embroidery is supple
mented with lace motifs, lace entire
deux and lace flounces. The English
eyelet embroidery has been quite fash
ionable for two years, but 1t has never
taken the place of French embroidery
because it is not really so well suited
to very fine undergarments being
little heavy in effect. The French en-
broidery Is now more than ever popular,
and is shown in the most delicate,
fanciful and beautiful designs. Quality
rather than quantity weighs most
heavily in determining the value of
the embroidery. A tendency to have a
moderate quantity of the very fine en-
broidery has recently manifested itself.
This, of course makes for good taste,
but does not decrease the expensiveness
of these articles of underwear, as the
embroidery. no matter how little of 1T
is used, costs fabulous sums.
Lace also is used rather sparingly on
the new undergarments Of the most ex-
elusive fashion. The lace is real, of
Los Angeles herald. [microfilm reel] (Los Angeles [Calif.]) 1900-1911, 1905-10-08

Some women have a fad for dressing in
the same color throughout the evening,
and to carry out this idea undergar-
ments of batiste in pale blue, pale Law
ender and pale pink are shown. Green
is not among the shades thus employed,
owing to universal prejudice against
arsenic poisoning. The paler the shades
used for undergarments and night
robes, too, the better, and In undergar-
ments colors are not in good taste at
all times unless used throughout an
entire outfit. Ribbons of the same color.
but deeper in shade, are used with the
colored lingerie.
AS has been fashionable for some
time, most Of the new night robes are
made very long on the shoulders, with
yokes or yoke effects and sleeves reach
ing half way to the elbow. Many Of the
sleeves are little more than ruffles of
lace or embroidery in appearance, but
actually they are shaped well in to the
arm toward the top. All we'll made
night gowns are shaped in very de-
cidedly at the waist line. Square,
pointed and round, slightly low necks
are popular and are finished around
the top with fiat insertion of frills
through which ribbon is run.
Shocking has taken the place of fine
tucks as the supplementary decorations
to the lace and embroidery in many of
the new gowns. Rows of putting be-
tween which there are insertions is also
a popular mode of trimming, but neither
shocking nor putting launders so well
as the fine tucks unless great care is
used and consequently the tucks will
continue to be more or less popular.
Beading is used somewhat sparingly on
the new lingerie. More than one row
of ribbon is rarely seen on the imported
garments, either the night robes or
underwear.

bunchy waist, and the thin woman 10
less than her stout sister should see
that there is no unnecessary material
punched around her waist.
All Lingerie Must Be Hand Made
The rage for handwork which has
been so pronounced in all other parts
of fashions realm has, of course, not
passed the undergarments by. Every
thing worn by a fashionable woman of
today is made by hand, including all
her oute& garments, undergarments,
her shoes and stockings, her jewelry
and even her umbrella handles, reti
cules and purses. But of all these
things, perhaps, the undergarments are
most rightfully included among the
necessarily handwrought. Beautiful
undergarments cannot now be made by
machine. Better plain, fine garments
made by hand than elaborate ones
made by machine. Here is a realm
into which the amateur seamstress
may we'll enter, because it is far more
possible for the woman of ordinary
ability as a seamstress to learn to make
her own undergarments than to make
satisfactory outer clothing. The work
is also more interesting and agreeable.
Indeed, since the passion for hand
made undergarments has become 50
widespread many girls who could not
possibly afford to buy French under
wear have learned to make their own.
Time, patience and skill are more neces-
sary than much money in this pursuit,
for very narrow lace really looks pref
tier than WIDE expensive lace, and
hand embroidery costs only infinite
patience and skill, and-this is just by
way of a caution--eyesight. Embroid-
ering on white with white thread, even
plain needlework, on these fine, white
garments is hard on the eyes if pur-
sued too steadily. 1t should be done
with care and only in a good light, and
the embroidery should be dropped
when found to be affecting the eyes.

One of the handsomest of the night
robes recently seen in Paris was made
with a very low, square neck with back
and front and mandarin sleeves fiat ar
the top and broadening toward the bot
TOM A perfectly fiat trimming of gull
pure was laid around the armhole,
where the sleeve Joined the gown. Six
square motifs of guipure trimmed the
front of the gown, being put on in two
rows on either side of the opening flap.
Six Of these motifs decorated each
sleeve, two of them being placed on the
two points of the sleeves. Around the
lower edge of the sleeves was a very
broad and handsome band of en-
broidery.
An Empire night robe of rose batiste
was most elaborate. The neck of the
gown was square, hardly cut low at all,
and a fiat square yoke reaching well
over the shoulders was completely COW
cred with French embroidery, on which
was superimposed a flowing open de-
sign In guipure. Beneath this yoke a
close fitting band or shocking waist
completed by the band of wide bead
ing through which ribbon was run. The
skirt was very full and large. Ruffles
of guipure were the sleeves OF this
gown.

putting and Valenciennes insertion.
Three ruffies of Valenciennes fell from
the yoke. The sleeves, of half elbow
length, were made of bands of the
putting used vertically and trimmed
with three fiounces of lace. Another
robe trimmed with Valenciennes had
the yoke going we'll off the shoulders,
trimmed with sixteen vertical rows OF
the lace, counting back and front. A
band of Valenciennes put on horizon
tally edged the yoke and below there
was a bertha trimmed with two hori-
zontal rows of lace and a broad edging.

dressing except for those fortunate be-
ings with ladies' maids. The waist is
very good, however, to be worn with
waists buttoned in the back. 1t fits
smoothly over the bust and very neatly
under the arms Rows of fine tuckS
run from the top to the bottom of the
waist over the bust and also down the
middle of the back.
The new chemises are trimmed very
delicately with fine French embroidery
and small lace motifs. Empire designs
are among the most beautiful of the
embroidered chemises, These are shown
made entirely without lace.
Drawn work, embroidery and lace APP
plicatiohs trim the finest of the hand
made drawers. The ruffles which finish
all drawers are now made in a great
variety of shapes, but perhaps the full
ruffles, cut in points and edged with
lace, are the prettiest. A new design
is shown with the drawers cut straight
across the lower edge and then cut up
sharply at the back. The lower edge
of the drawers is trimmed with a band
of guipure, above which is an em-
broidery design. Three bands OF bead
ing and f1ounce Of lace edge the
drawers.

"Tea grows on bushes. The leaves
are plucked by hand. Imagine your
self stripping rose bush after rose BUSH

that is what tea picking is like.
"The native pickers work fast. They
pick as many as twenty-five pounds of

haste doesn't pause to brush off each
leaf or wash 1t. for he works, as we
say, by piecework.
1.-THE picked leaves are dried on char
coal fires. They shrivel under the heat
and the insect larvae and chrysalids
among them change to dust. This dust
looks, to the ordinary eye, like leaf
fragments. But under the microscope
it looks as you remarked, like an in

field. 1t tastes like-but you know as
well as I do what it tastes like

NIGHT HAVE BEEN WORSE.

After all the penitentiary guards or
dered dismissed by Governor Mead
for illegal registration may thank their
lucky stars that they escaped convlc-
ton either for perjury or for violation
of a special statute covering election
frauds. Many of the best lawyers do
not agree with Judge Brents' opinion
regarding the nature of an oath. They
hold that it is not necessary to hold
I'D ones hand and swear in order to
be bound by an oath. Judge Hanford,
in the case of Adam Schmidt, held that
the signing of a false statement con-
stituted perjury, and on the strength
of that ruling Schmidt was sentenced
to six years in the federal penitentiary.
That Judge Brents was in reality
anxious to save the guards from pun
ishment is conclusively proven by his
subsequent course in writing two let
tiers to Governor Mead asking that the
scathing denunciation of the guards
by the court should not be taken seri-
ously. But Governor Mead is a law
yer. He knows what constitutes per-
jury and he proposes to act according
TO mis- own Judgment of what is right
and just in the case. ~

RESULTS IN PHILADELPHIA

The Philadelphia North American,
summing up the results of the anti
graft crusade in that city, claims that
they are the most substantial ever
ments. The itemized account of the
victories of the people certainly tends
to carry out the claims made by the
North American. They include:
The rescue of the gasworks from a
private company which was to have
had a seventy-five year lease amount
ing to virtual confscation of the
property.
The resembling of ordinances under
which the traction company would
have received in perpetuity 10 miles
of streets, without compensation to the
people.
The stopping of a corrupt job on the
filtration plant and the killing of va
rious contract jobs allied with this
one
The ferreting out of the corrupt
election methods whereby the gang
formerly maintained it's power and the
purging of the city election rolls of
over $1,000 fraudulent registrations
Yet the work in Philadelphia is not
finished. 1t is scarcely fairly begun.
The serpent is scotcned, not killed
The organization knows when to lie
quiet and when to come out to fight
No one doubts that with a favorable
aspect of things politically it will again
fight for control 1t can be kept out
of power only by keeping true SER
wants of the people in power.

q Man and a Tragedy.
A tree whose name is at once tho
memorial both of a man and tragedy
is the Douglas pine, famous for its
magnificent cones. Now, David Doug
las was originally a Scotch lad who
came under the notice of Sir William
Hooker, the well known botanist and
through his influence was appointed
collector Of rare plants to the Hort.
cultural society. He Travelled for the
society in all parts of the world and
was extraordinarily successful in his
finds. 1t was he who discovered lu-
pins, eschscholtzias and godetias as
well as many magnificent varieties Of
pine trees, including the one bearing
his name. But when quite young
man he met tragic fate while plant
hunting. He was in the Sandwich
isles, and there the natives dig deep
pits to catch wild animals, covering
them over with branches and grass to
conceal their openings. On to one Of
these treacherous pits Douglas walked
one day when alone and was at once
precipitated to the bottom. No help
was at hand, and he was devoured by
q wild beast which was also impris-
Oned.
