Lace Headpieee

From the Philadelphia Press
One OF the features Of the hats for
formal wear is the round piece OF lace
that IS attached TO the inside OF a large
shape just as a bandeau IS used. II falls
In soft folds over the hair and looks
quite like the lacy edge of-save the
mark.-a breakfast cap. But you have no
idea Of the becomingness Of this innova-
ton. Pretty features appear more lovely
under the softening halo Of tulle or lace,
and other faces are vastly improved by
the medium between them and the felt
or satin crown OF a large hat.
Black. white. or metallic lace is used
for this frill that is arousing comment.
Tiny rosebuds OF narrow ribbon or small
silk flowers are worked INTO the lace,
lessening the contrast and harmonizing
with the plumes OF lace trimming on the
outside OF the chapeau- The ruffe is
about two inches wide II Is attached be-
fore the lining Is adjusted. although a
few mlllineTs have arranged for a change
Of lace frills by a series Of loops and
buttons
How did this originate? Why, probably
from the fancy turban headdr5ss OF lace
trimmed with flowers that Parisiennes
wore in the summer in evenings. At all
events, sustained by the knowledge that
hat with this inner frin was awarded
first prize at the great exhibition Of
chapeaux, il comes as something new
and bids fair TO be adopted

All Seams Allowed.

A smart model for wear under tho
early fall coats is the one we show
above. Such waists must not be bulky,
as they would be uncomfortable, but
they must be stylish and a good cut.
The waist we illustrate Is certainly
very attractive The front has a group
of tucks at each shoulder and the regu-
lar box plat closing down the center. In
the back the tucks extend all the way 70
the waist-line and are stitched their
entire length. The shirt sleeve is used
and Is finished with the shirt cuff. The
waist is suitable for French flannel taft

THRIFTY FRANCE.
The Land Where Saving Is "A Regu-
lar Habit.

From the Scotsman.
Interesting information regarding the
thrift OF the French people Is contained
in the latest publication put out by the
National Monetary Commission, In the
shape OF a contribution by Alfred Ney-
marck. editor of the Renter. a French
financial publication.
Mons. Neymarck. to show how general
the habit OF saving is in France. says:
There are in France 100000 electors,
almost all taxpayers. All or nearly all
save their money with the intention OF
putting something by for their old age.
There are savings IN the special organi-
cations called savings Institutions. IN the
mutual benefit societies. IN banks and
securities, in lands (unimproved prop
erty), and in houses Improved proper
w Such is the composition of the
private wealth OF France, wealth which
Is indefinitely disseminated.
1T can be proved. In fact, that OF these
100000 electors 100000 az least have
a book at some savings institution. a
Government rente. a railroad or Credit
Foncier bond. or some other security. a
strip OF land or a house, whether large
or small. And this is not all The
French RENTER does not invest everything
he has. but always keeps by him some
available means in gold. silver or bank
notes to provide for sudden demands
and lays it aside in order 10 use IL later,
either in temporary or definite and more
profitable investments"
There are 100000 investors In France
who are holders OF 3 per cent rentes.
corresponding 10 our own consols. and
their total holdings. according 10 Mons
Neymarck. are A.0n0Oo0.O00 francs, or
about es5o,0oo0oO. Banks and other
financial institutions hold most of the
government bonds In the United States
Lotteries are legitimate Institutions in
France. and lottery bonds are held large
y by the people. OF this Mons. Ney-
marck says:
Everybody desires 10 leave the door
open to fortune. and the smallest hold
ings. as we'll as the largest. contain
lottery bond OF the city of Paris, Of the
Credit Foncier. or OF some provincial
town. or some foreign lottery certificates
negotiable in France, such as the Aus
trian bonds OF 1860. &c. We possess
100000 francs in lottery bonds. The can
ital Invested IN these bonds results again
from the economy OF small investors and
represents part OF the savings OF the
democracy. Neither in England nor in
the United States is there found such
use OF funds, for there is not in these
countries, as in France an army OF peo-
pie who put by small savings"
In distributing the interest on the
foreign lottery bonds the whole amount
due is put into a pool and divided into
prizes. Those holding the lucky num-
bers get all the interest. but the losers.
Of course. get the principal of their in
vestment on the bonds maturity.
Annual savings OF all classes of French
investors. according 10 Mons. Neymarck,
average between 1.5O0.OOO.OOO francs and
2,0O0OO0.OO0 francs. Or from e60,0O0.OoO 10

Hooks and Eyes.
VI the Raltimore Americnn.

From the Baltimore American.
When sewing the hooks and eyes on
the placket of a skirt sew one pair at
the very bottom, fasten them and crush
them fiat This will keep the placket
from ever tearing or ripping at the end.
On a wash dress the eyes should be
sewed on the upper flaps and the hooks
on the lower instead of the usual fashion.
The top flap can then be irOned fiat
without the little Jumps left by ironing
over hooks.
In working on heavy materials alter
nate the hooks and eyes-first an eye,
then a hook on one flap, with first a
hook and then an eye on the other.
This method will hold the dress shut
and save the wearer from embarrass-
ment and discomfort
