The society maids and matrons who
! have returned from Paris and London
! with frocks for tile autumn are not yet
exhibiting the latest things here; they
| are waiting till the fall season really
! sets in. and until people are practically
| back in town. The first of November
is quite soon enough. unless the
weather. be decidedly cool, before try
ing out their new creations. 1t would
be, a waste of the immaculate freshness
of their fetching costumes. The
women of the modish world who are
now seen in town are wearing, almost
without exception, late spring tailored
| costumes or the heavier rajahs and
| thin wool dresses of the summer.
The '1ittle season. of dresses is now
on, and it will, as said, be practically
! November before really new gowns and
costumes are in order.
Mrs. Eugene Lent has struck note
of originality in the furnishing of her
guest rooms in her new home. Ordinar-
| lily the guest room is apt to be rather
/ a conventional place with ready made
atmosphere unless the hostess has de-
vised some scheme for an impression
! of perpetual comfort. The room has
| too often. alas, an unrelated look, as
| if the furnishings were assembled
| from hither and yon without regard to
| their harmony or respect for each
other. OF course, in extreme cases,
| the room has an assortment of furni-
| ture that is in nowise pleasing to the
mere beholder. The chairs have an in
| dividual aspect of stiffness and the
dressing table is unique and remote in
its ugly independence. Mrs. Lent has
attempted to reconcile every piece of
furnishing in her rooms with the color
of the wall paper. She has the dress
! ing table and its accessories in per-
| feet keeping with the color scheme of
the room. The brushes and mirrors
have dainty handpainted frames that
are in the delicate tones of the walls
and even the combs are in pink or. blue
whatever the dominant color may hap
pen to be in the artistic room.

The modern society girl and her.
powder puff are inseparable. The
dainty damozel is welded to the pet
luxury that is concealed everywherea
The Indispensable puff may be within
a hatpin top, locket ornament for
the chatelaine, compartment in the.
opera bag and chain purse, or card
case may reveal the necessary toilet
adjunct at the touch of spring
One of the latest places of conceal
ment for a vanity box that several OF,
the girls are favoring just now is as
a plaque on top of bracelet The
bracelet itself is of thinly plated gold
wires and the plaque is the size of "a
small open face watch. It is enam- =
eled in vivid cl1antecler coloring
around an oval central space for the.
owners monogram At a. touch the lid
lifts, showing tiny puff and powder
There have been one or two family
reunions during the week and these
events are always provocative of more
or less comment among the unbfddeni
guests and mirth among outsiders The:
careful cuttings from amid a. society
or grande danes relatives are not al.
ways representative of the clan. There
