FINDS ALL KINDS OF LINEN
Woman Astonished at Size and vari-
ETY. Of Wardrobe Of That One
Material.

Al woman who is always smartly
gowned recently resolved to have
frocks Of all the kinds Of linen there
are, for her winter sojourn at Mas
sau, each frock to be trimmed with
the lace or handwork of the country
from which the linen came. Until she
began her unique collection she had
no idea of the great variety of linens
to be bought or how much ingenuity
1t would take to carry out her idea.
Her list, with accompanying orna-
mentation. shows how large and var
led a wardrobe may be developed
from one single kind of material
On sheer handkerchief linen Of
Irish weaving baby Irish crochet was
used In profusoin. and with natu-
raj color butchers linen Of English
make, broderie Anglaise or eyelet en-
broidery appeared. With an oyster
white Flemish hand loom linen some
heavy Flanders lace in Van Dyke
point was inset, and on unbleached
hand loom Holland linen was embroi-
derry in Delft blue linen thread. India
null from the Orient showed exquisite
hand embroidery, as did the diaph-
anous linens of China and Japan and
those from the Philippines.
Java and Madeira sent hand drawn
work and embroidery combined. Mex
lean work appeared on an elaborate
morning dress of medium weight lin
en-, and on the coat Of Russian
crash walking costume were cuffs and
collar of Russian lace. Bulgarian
linen, brightly embroidered, was made
up into a smart little bridge dress,
and a charming dinner dress for club
wear was Of Italian linen with Cluny
Of great beauty and lavishly inset.
There was also a frock with the
wonders of Swiss hand work on very
fine sheer linen, and another Of hand
spun German linen, with insertings of
old Mechlin In the bodice and much
hemstitching In connection with en-
broidered dots. From Norway came
a frock OF medium weight linen with
cutwork Of intricate effect, and from
Spain very coarse open linen can
vas inset with lace crocheted by the
peasants of the hills.
Each dress is absolutely different
from the others, and the planning has
given many interesting hours to the
woman who will wear them.

Mr.. Grimm dropped into chair
with his teeth clenched, and his face
like chalk. For moment or more he

robbed Of its splendor when the blow
fell here here upon a woman he
loved.

from Senior Alvarez after the shoot
ing was supposed to bear vitality upon
Mexico's attitude toward our plan,
but, as it developed, 1t was about an
other matter entirely"
Yes, know" said Mr.. Grimm.
The event of that night which YOU
did not learn was that Germany
agreed to join the compact upon con-
ditions. Mr. Rankin, who was at

advisory capacity, delivered the an
