costume Is the rule.
The Russian ''knkochnik" is one of
the most charming articles OF adorn-

the AIuscovite peasant women. but has
been adopted during this century by
the ladies' of the court, who have elabO-

cred In precious stones. It is worn
with the red velvet court mantle and
Jeweled stomacher brought out on
state occasions and more than out
rivals the plumes and veil worn Mt the
English court.
The Spanish mnntilIa is well known
and has been somewhat vulsarized on
the comic stage. The national dress OF
RoumanIa has escaped that fate. 1t
consists of a white linen sleeveless gar

Egyptian 'feIlnhin." It is thiclSly en-

embroidery encircling the waist, with
streamers of colored ribbon falling
therefrom In n shimmering cascade.
The hair is braided In four plaits loose
IL tied with chains of sequlns, and the
feet are Incased in crimson kid slippers
strewn with seed pearls.
In Poland princesses and peasants
wear around their throats several rows
of huge coral beads, and SO Ioath to

good luck are they that when a grande
dame Is arrayed for n ball and IS oblig-
ed to put on pearls and diamonds she
carries her coral beads in her pocket.

greatest divergence in the matter of
costume. The garb of the Hungarian
peasant is so fetching that the wealthy
ladies' COPY 1t when on their estates. 1t

with colored ribbons.
