From the Mothers Magazine.
While recently receiving a party of
Americans, whom she had met before. the
German empress gave an Illustration OF
how thrift is .practiced by royal mother.
says the Boston Transcript. The royal
household is allowed more than million
dollars year by the parliament for state
receptions and public expenses, but the
emperors home is maintained out of his
own purse, and the emy ress has control
of this
She was talking with her visitors when a
loud crash came from an adjoining room.
Servants Fastened to the spot but the
empress was there first. On her return she
said composedly to the company:

will have that much sewing to do to pay
for her carelessness and my loss"

way that the eccentric features of these
very pronounced styles are not too striking.
The best examples of the princess styles
seen for some time are now being displayed.
They are not exaggerated and the severe
lines are softened in the upper part of the
waist by the way the trimming is applied
and by decided flare to the foot of the
skirt. A princess gown that fits too closely
does not look well even on the very slight
est figure as 1T has tendency to exaggerate
any existing defects.
Empire styles, too, have undergone modi-
fications and are no longer eccentric, espe-
c1ally when made in lace and thin mate
rails and worn over a princess slip. In this
way the gown hangs loose from the lining
and really indicates rather than follows the
lines of the original design. 1t is fashion
that permits of the use of such superb en-
broidery and lace that at the present mo-
ment, when there is such a craze for en-
broideries of all sorts, it's popularity is not
to be wondered at The broad band across
the bust may be of velvet, silk or lace, and
this forms a background for the finest
French work.
Hand-painted chiffon combined with plain
chiffon Is much worn this season for even
ing, and there are some unusual combina-
lions Of colors seen. A very faint shade of
tan chiffon is trimmed with bands of the
Powered effect put on in long lines from
shoulder to hem. The gown belongs to the
princess variety SO that with these bands
the lines of the figure are defined most be-
comingy and slender waist made to look
even more slender. Plain chiffon may be
either made up as 1t is or tucked. In either
case the foot of the skirt should be orna-

shade of the flowers in the design This
gives an odd touch of color and much
lighter effect than IL a band of ribbon or
velvet were used.
Allover embroidery gowns, with bands of
lace entire deuX, considered modish and
are generally worn over colored Innings,
which make the design of the embroidery
and lace stand out. They are usually made
In princess style, with a band of the en-
broidery or lace forming the belt 1t is not
considered necessary to wear either sash or
girdle with this style of gown. In fact
these adjuncts rather detract from its sim
plicity and stylish severity. Berthas and
fichus of lace and muslin finish the waist
around the shoulders, while the sleeves are
short small puffS, finished, as a rule, with
lace ruffles.
Spangled gowns are destined to be fash
ionable forever. There is little in common
at present between the really magnificent
embroidered nets and chiffons and the bar
gain robes that are genuine bargains
though often short-lived.
The most superb embroderies on net are
shown for evening gowns for the coming
winter. but the prices make them Almost
prohibitory for the majority of women.
Summer evening gowns are simpler and
there is more of the plain material than
the embroidery used, the favorite this year
being lines of the spangles outlining the
seams and bordering the foot of the skirt
The scale spangles overlapping each other
are too heavy for summer, but this same
effect of overhanging spangles is charmingly
obtained by having the spangles put on in a
succession of straight lines rather than in
some heavy and elaborate patterns Span
gled fiounces make an effective trimming
for gowns and can be bought by the yard
just as pattern gowns are bought. Colored
-spangles on white are liked. although it
must be admitted that the one color effect
is much more modish. On pearl gray chif-
fon silver or steel spangles give beautiful
effect, and the combination of cut steel
spangles with pafllettes is quite novel.
Black evening gowns are always consid-
cred useful. They are, in truth, almost es-
sential to complete the wardrobe of wom-
an who goes out great deal. Jet span
gled tulle gowns are always stylish and be-
coming, and were never more fashionable
than at present, while even women who
are wearing light mourning have an; OPP

A great deal depends upon how the lining
for lace gown is made. With a good fit
ting princess style of slip made of silk it is
possible to have several lace or muslin
gowns to wear over it, and at the same time
If one owns three or four of these silk slips
OF different colors one may have quite a va
riety of gowns. with only one of all lace.
CoOred Innings are fashionable, while all
white is more to the fore this summer than
1t has been for several seasons. One point
to be remembered about these silk slips Is
that they should be trimmed around the
foot with one deep founce having several
small ruft1es on the fiounce. These ruff1es
may be of either silk or lace.

and show very little contrast Just
now there is little difference in the clothes
that are designed for winter and summer
wear, and the woman who goes about in the
fashionable world requires very much the
same sort of evening gowns in summer that
she does in winter. Fashion demands how
ever, that there be some distinguishing fea-
ture In the gown intended for one or the
other of these seasons. The term evening
gown Includes gowns that are suitable for
dances and for dinners; that is formal din
ners. not those given in restaurants or pub
lie places where the high neck waist Is
obligatory.
The favorlte summer gown is essentially
simple, although there is no limit to the
expense that can be lavished upon it. Lace
plays an important part among trimmings
this season, and ali kinds and varieties are
used. Entire lace gowns are as much In de-
mand as ever. Those made entirely of one
kind. such as Cluny. Irish or Valenciennes,
are still in high favor, while an unusual eff
feet Is gained by combining two different
kinds Of lace of different weave and pat
tern. For instance, Cluny or Irish lace can
be combined with Valenciennes or some one
of the finer mesh laces. This makes more
variety and likewise more expense. Then
there are the so-called lace gowns that are
made of lace entire deux combined with
chiffon. fine null or lawn. There is 1t must
be admitted. far less of the ma terial than
lace in such a combination, and the mate
rial can be either plain, embroidered or run
in fine hand tucks. One very charming eff
feet Is gained by the insertion of lace two
and one-half inches in width, bordered on
each side with narrow edge of Valen-
eiennes lace put on rather FULL so that it
stands up. Cfuny lace is exquisite when
made up with batiste In. long lines, with
wide, circular hounce trimmed also with
the lace insertion and finished with a ruffle

MRS. BOOTEs DIES IN WILMINGTON.
mother OF leiut. h. D v. BoOtes, Son -in.Iaw
OF n. P. Hazel of Smyrna, Died Wednesday.


Mrs. Mary Louise Bootes, widow of
General Levi @. Bootes, died shortly
before noon Wednesday, at her home,
1913 West Thirteenth street, Whining
ton. The deceased was the mother of
Lieut.. Harry V. D. Bootes, son-in-law
OF Mr.. Herman P. Hazel of Smyrna.
Mrs. Bootes was native of Delaware
and lived in this State all of her life
most of the time in Wilmington. Her
husband, General Bootes, was we'll
known. He served with distinction in
the Mexican and Civil War and in
various Indian campaigns, and with
the exception of those times when she
followed her husband to various posts
during his campaigns, she was resi-
dent OF Wilmington. The same spirit
which actuated her husband to take
up arms in defense of his country, was
lnculcated in her sons, for two of the
three sons who survive her are now in
the service of the government. Thev
are Captain Samuel B. Bootes, of the
Commlsary Department of the
United States Army, and Captain J.
L. Bootes, of the United States Marine
Corps. The remaining sou is Lieut..
Harry V. D. Bootes, who has also been
IN the military service. Mrs. Bootes
before her marriage was Mary Louise

L. Bird. She was the sister af the late
LeviC. Bird, the well-known Whining
ton attorney, and General Charles
Bird, also of Wilmington. Services
over the remains were held Friday
