The temperance in Paris society OF
the American Duchess de la Rouche-
foucauld, youngest daughter of the late
John III. Mitchell, Senator from Ore
gon, Is a feature of the season. The
spirited duchess went to Paris from
her husbands Chateau de Montmiral,
determined TO play conspicuous part
in the social gayety.
She will be far away the most richly
dressed woman in Paris this winter, il
what all the dressmakers say is true.
Every morning her automobile whizzes
around the city while she inspects and
accepts, or rejects, fashions newest
creations. The duchess even laughing
ly invites artists of greatest fame to
discuss the aesthetic aspect of a mod
ern woman's draperies. She notes ev-
cry hint they lightly let fall and puts
it to use in designing her raiment, but
DISCUSSES it so deity that even it's
author can not recognize it.
The duchess who is very popular,
passes every hour of the afternoon and
night at social gatherings of some kind.
She is an intimate of the Infanta Eula-
liza, has made many friends among the
Spanish colony and occasionally Is
seized with the desire to learn the Cas-
lillian tongue.
OF all the Americans there, the Ouch
ess de la Rochefoucauld Is the most
Partisan. She takes the greatest in
terest in the study of French literature
and frequently attends conferences
held by the academies. For lighter. If
more exciting, diversion she plays
bridge whist. and often takes hand
at the bridge parties given by Mrs.
Marshall and her acknowledgements. |
