have ii young friend who spends
her summers in a small country hotel,
and during four consecutive seasons
she worked steadily and hard to make
herself a lace dress, all to be wrought
on surface of batiste When it was
completed that particular style had
been put into that strange place where
all old fashions are stored and no one
knoweth where. All that beautiful
work went for nothing, for now lace
gowns are not in the swim that is. if
you go to buy a gown which shall be
a thing of beauty and a JOY until
ones rival comes out with a prettier
one. Now, instead of the graceful
sweep of a plain skirt oyerlaid with
lace the skirts are hounced and plated
and treated in such a manner as to
require from ten to twenty-five yards

Well, to return to lace dresses, II
there are few gowns all of duchess
lace or Limerick or Cluny or Irish
crochet there are many pretty light
laces set on the edges of the fiounces
and on all places where it can be put

sometimes one may find lace inset In
the skirt if the material is suitable

One, for instance, mad the body Of the
parasol made of closely shirred pink
chiffon, with a regular fluff at the
point, then a row of black silk guipure
lace, with three little tabs Of black
velvet fastened so that they would fail
on each rib from the black line, then
another row of shirring and a full ruff
fie of chiffon. with row of fine
yalenciennes half an inch wide set on
straight. The handle was of ivory,
with inset pieces of fine Whitby jet

was taken to the guard house, and in

it is a very serious offence to sleep
while on post? Why, if this were in

is supreme in this winters toilets. or
course the elite, patronizing exclusive
designers, have girdles to match
gowns, yet so artistically considered

self the girdle is a marvel in making.
Imagine a street costume of the new
prune shade, with skirt, bodice and
coat In harmony. The bodice fits
snugly to the skirt line, but is separ-
ated by a narrow girdle, unobrusive
and fitting so perfectly that it does not
suggest division of the body above the

Peacock Fad.

when the peacock comes into
fashion 1t gets into every phase of It, -
says a fashion expert. This was true
of the pre-eminently beautiful and ar
tistic bird when it became the rage for
decorations some fifteen years or SO
ago. 1t is true OF 1t this season"
Hats. gowns. cloaks, jewelry, house
hold decorations. all are being affected
in increasing degree by the peacock
fad. The blush green or greenish
blue shade, called peacock blue, is but
one Of the many colors suggested by
the peacock Every one of its feath-
ers, from the long ones in its gorgeous
tail to the tiny ones hidden under its
wings. supplies a color study. A daz-
zlingly brilliant costume may be
planned in its coloring, or one as
quiet as the softest shades Of buff-
brown will make 1t.

AII White Gowns.

OF course, you must have one white
gown, for there are times when white
dress is good. The most serviceable
gown of this description is white
peau de cygne with brilliant luster.
Have 1t made with narrow plaits ex-
tending all around the hips and have
them stitched two fingers deep. Then
let the skirt flare evenly all the way
around. This skirt while beautiful, is
never too dressy for nice wear. It can
be put on for those occasions when
one does not know what to wear. A
white peau de cygne skirt often saves
a dressier gown and makes nice APP
uearance at the same time.

The languages are not understood

As far as possible the typewritten

Having thus translated their vocal

An interesting question as to what
becomes of ships that for one reason
or another disappear from view and
registry lists is answered by Lloyd's
Register, which gives annually the re-
turn of shipping lost or Condemned.
In the past year the waste of shipping
amounted to S07 vessels Of 73S,145
tons, excluding all under 100 tons,
which, it is interesting to note, is
about the yearly average, though a
substantial contribution to the list is
made on account of the naval opera
tions at Port Arthur. in the course Of
which some thirty steamers were
sunk.

Velvet and Accessories.

For smart wear velvet is the most
modish fabric, and now that even the
less costly kinds are dressed soft they
do not mark and crease so readily and
are altogether more satisfactory in
wear. Short velvet skirts fit quite
tightly around the hips and have ex-
tensions, plated near the hem. and
these are usually accompanied by
some short type of coat, or in Paris
the bolero barely reaching to the waist
is still in favor.
