A Crepe-de-chine NegIigee

Negligees are more or less elaborate
nowadays when Milady has cup of
afternoon tea before her nap. or when
friends stay for bit of gossip after
a strenuous midnight party. Many new
styles In negligees are always cropping
up, but tho simplest models prove to be
the best ones in the long run. They are
not so apt to become soiled when the
trimming is plain.
The pretty negligee shown in the pic
ture is made of crepe de chine. The
long. flowing lines are most becoming to
a slender figure, and add grace to a
stouter woman. The color is turquoise
blue. dainty little creation is seen in
the boudoir cap. which is made to ac-
company the neglgee This has a plain
line across the front and a rufie of the
net falls over the hair in the back

Some Evening FrOcks

| was at such delightful little dance
last night and met some charming people
But first Of all. must described some
OF the gowns that were worn there.
quite a number of debutantes were
present, and one pretty. fair-haired girl
! wore a froclt of Powered marquisette. The
foundation skirt was of shadow lace. top
ped by long tunic cut with overlapping
points in front. A girdle of pale pink
satin was worn, and the whole effect was
perfectly charming.
A tall darlS-haired girl wore an exqui-
site frock of chiffon taffeta and Chantilly
1ouncing The shade Of the froch was
French gray, and she wore spray of
delicate pink rosebuds in the corsage.
notice everywhere | go that one re-
suit of the European war is to bring into
fashion softly subdued tones Soldier
gray, for instance, is soft admixture Of
blue and gray tones and is exceedingly
becoming to the average woman. Grays,
tans and blues predominate in the new
spring styles.
There are few colors that are new In
name. although closely allied to old colors,
For instance. Brittainique pink and red
are new in name, but in tone come very
near the old geranium and tomato pink.
Where green is concerned, the new tone
is the Czarine. This has succeeded the
winter green known as Russian.
Yellow will not be nearly so popular as
ii has been.
I hear on good authority that a great
Partisan house has set it's face against
the shortwaisted style in gowns. My
consolation is that other equally import
ant houses are including 1t in their mod
els, and so we are likely to have the high
waist for some time to come.
But to return to the subject of the
dance. We really did have n fine time.
] met very attractive Englshman, and
we talked quite lot together. 1t seems
that he had been at the front, fighting for
his country, that lie had been wounded
and had been sent home.

A Unique Party
for st. Patrick's Dav

very clever matron who wanted
something new in the way of St. Pat
rick's Day entertainments hit upon a
plan which is among the most unique
ideas in this line you can imagine. Her
invitations were simple enough, cut out
from green paper in the shape of sham
rocks, and written in white ink. They
said that a table dhote lunch would be
served to all who could afford it, Nat
urally, this aroused a great deal OF curl
osty as to what would follow
Each guest, on her arrival, was pre-
sented with a green tally card Bridge
tables stood here and there, and every
one played auction, just as at an evening
party. After this, no visible signs of a
lunch were TO be seen. The hostess sug-
gested that every one move into the res
taurant, where each one could buy her
lunch The restaurant consisted of the
dining room, which was decorated with the
most amusing signs. such as hang in light
lunch parloFs. Watch Your Overcoat."
only One Order Served 10 Each Per-
son. and such inscriptions, were hung on
the wall. Then the guests received a card,
on which the scale OF prices was placed
Chicken salad was ~ a portion. rolls 20
cents. coffee 40 cents, ice cream so cents
etc Whatever points the guest had made
at bridge were taken as the standard, and
the things he ate were deducted from this
total For instance, a total Of 1000 en-
titled the guest 10 all the salad, ice cream,
coffee and rolls which he could procure
without exceeding this sum. II was very
unique, aud everybody had perfect time.
Potato salad baked potatoes, cucumber
and pickle rings. stuffed olives. eggs. rye
bread sandwiches. with cheese and water
ersss. and green hard candies prove very
nice. If the hostess cares 70 give E rather

SO it was Graham. Rcnslaw stood gaz-

had been! He looked at her and fierce
hot rebellion surgcd up within him. With
a sudden, binding realization he knew,
too late that he loved her.
slight movement beside him brought
him back to the fact that she had spoken.
"Yes?" he said, gently. THANK you
for telling me, Kate. And you love him,
of course? You will be very happy"
"Oh, no." There was a note of sur
prise, almost of distress, in her voice.

He had her hands in his caught in

Fashion Forecasts
What Milady Wears

Velvets. brocaded materials and me-
taliic weaves were the popular fabrics
during the winter months, and now the
fashionable miss has jumped to the other
extreme, All the sheer, cllnging trans
parent fabrics are in vogue. The dressy
frocks for afternoon wear are most
ethereal in appearance.
Chiffon always reminds one OF debu-
tantes. although there is no rule in this
respect ColOrs are varied and charm
ing, but white seems TO lead in popular
ity. Dainty lacings of silver tissue or
gold embroidery are some pretty trim
mings. although the spring froeks will
not be so elaborate.
Hoop skirts are being used, too, but not
