Il - PIE have evidently reached the acme OF
| wv extravaganza in neglgee.
And let me tell you that many cost
(ES}ESaI quite as much, and sometimes con-
: - siderably than street frocks. The
designers have taken a free lance with regard
to the cost and style, and in consequence a neg
ligce worn by a fashionable woman of today
is a most enviable vision of fetching loveliness
all but the pricemark. -.
AS an example of the ambitious role played by
the elaborate type of negligee, let me quote
this amusing little tale. I
Some Is years ago brother of well-known
society woman in town went Southwest for his
health. After recuperating, he applied himself
steadily to his mining interests, marrying daugh-
ter Of a mining prospector, a very plain woman,
by the way. He has acquired a very neat sum
during his absence, and last month came on to
visit his sister, who is woman that dotes on
pretty clothes She greeted him in a flowing
Empire negligee of polka dotted white swiss cut
low at the throat and half sleeves the whole elab-
orately trimmed with lace
Il The man seemed little awed at her appear
ance at first, then look of annoyance, coupled
with inqusitiveness, settled upon his features
though he made no ocular attempt to solve the
mystery.
In writing home to his wife he said that so
ciety had completely demoralized his sisters taste
in matters of dress; she had lost her respect
for modest gowning.
tsDo you know" he wrote "my sister Isabe
actually came into the room wearing some kine
of fool get-up that was neither night dress
Mother Hubbard nor ball gown, and yet in
curious way it resembled all three. I hope Il
heavens" the man added, "Bessie, that money ant
society will never bring you to such a pitiabl
condition"

been trained in the way they should 60, his orig

PASSION FOR HANDWoRK.
The lingerie neggee is certainly thing Of
beauty.
Of lovely soft batiste, in white or colors, trim

only delightfully."- airy, but very charming. It is
cooler than swiss, though the weave is not 50
open. Hand embroidered handkerchief linen for
a Princess or Empire neglgee, the edge being
scolloped and forming a Dutch or surplice neck,
Is the very daintiest model to be found.
Many hand d-embroidered models have yokes
which the wearer may easily design and en-
broider for herself. The shadow embroidery
that is SO simple and quickly done makes a most
attractive design for negligees. It is best in pure
white, though one color, such pale blue or pink,
is sometimes used Laces and embroideries are
inset by hand.

several months in E~rope in the
interest of the exposition, expects
to return to the United States the
latter part OF this mt nth. TIE
cOrdinl reception accorded him by
the different countries vieitcd Is
peculiarly gratifying to Viz.

with many important assurances Of
interest and cooperation
Apart from the personal aspect
OF this, it augurs well for the ex-
POSITIONS success. A Virginia

attention CT Europe may we'll
expect high degree Of interest
from the men and women of this
country.
Upon his return to America. Mr..
Tucker will bring with him friend
ly expressions and assurances from
KAISER Wilhelm and Emperor
Franz Josef. Both Germany and
Austria Hungary, it is hoped, will
be represented by squadron at
the opening cerem onies In 1907,
and there is ground for expecting
that the Austrian Yacht Club may
be similarly represented. On
Christmas Day, Mr.. Tucker had a
favorable audience with the Pope
at the Vatican: France, in especial,
has been very warm in friendly
assurances. On Tuesday of last
week. through the mediation of
Ambassador Mccormick, Mr.. Tuck

President Tucker was cordially
received by President Loubet. who
said that French squadron would
undoubtedly attend the opening

would do everything possible to

Lexington Entitled TO the Free
Delivery uf Mali

Lexington Entitled TO the Free
Delivery of NAH
With the tegiuoing Of the new
year, the question of free delivery
of mail for Lexington is again
being agitated. The receipts Of
the Lexington postoIEice are
sufficiently large to entitle the towa
to such service. For the iscal
year ending March 81, 1905, tine
receipts amounted to $40, G50.7G,
and for the present fiscal year
they will be in excess of that sum,
For the three quarters ending
December 30, 1905, the receipts
were $8,277.52. Offices doing bust
ness to the amount Of $40, 900,
annually are entitled to free de-
livery service.
Postmaster McClung Patton says
If the PEOPLE Of Lexington desire
the free delivery CT mail, they can
get it. He expects to go before the
Town Council and present the Goa
ditions on which the service will
be established. The postoflice
authorities require that tleets
shall be naned and ell houses
numbered. The expense for this
work would naturally be borne by
the town. Good pavements and
good lights are also necessary, bat
these the town now enjoys. There
fore it will be necessary for the
Town Council to order the naming
of streets and numbering of houses
before final steps are taken Ky the
postoflce department.
AT the discretion of the postofIlce
the service can be sx-
tended to include suburban settle
ments. That is to say, Fact Lex
ington and the settlement at the
Rockbridge Lime Kilns could have
the benefit of the service if the
deemed it wise to so
do.
Two or three carriers would be
required to deliver the mail. The
salr ~ for the first year would be
5000 each for che carriers, with
the prospect for ADVANCEMENT to
$500 or 81, 900.
