many notables present. It seemed as
if everyone had put on their best bib
and tucker for the occasion. One wo-
man who is summering in Maine came
down to be present at the fete. Her
gown was one of the new combina-
lions of blue serge and Scotch taffeta.
When she stood still the skirt appear
ed to be of the serge, but when she
moved it broke up into floating panels
displaying medium width underskirt
of the plaid. This matched a shoulder
and sleeve section while the serge was
used in a bib effect on the waist and
for the deep cuffs.
Silks and Serges the Fabrics of Fall
Many similar effects were to be
seen. Serge seems to be even more
popular than in past seasons. This
is, no doubt, due to the fact that it is
so hard for the French mills to weave
their novelties. However, the serges
are smart and the women seemed con-
tent to use these in combination with
the taffetas and failles. There were
some smart effects with striped taffet-
as and the plain dark blue grosgrain
combined with serge made rich dress

Hazel Twios.

Hazel twigs long have been used as
instruments with which to discover
water under ground. The twig has ut
various times been credited with many
marvellous powers. Not only could it
discover water, but concealed lodes of
metal. especially silver, were betrayed
by the hazel, which according to ira
dition, was guided by the pixies who
guarded the treasures of the earth. In
France the divining rod Of hazel was
used in the pursuit of criminals. while
in many of the methods of investigat-
ing the future the burning of hazel
nuts played part

A MAGNETIC island.

The island Of Bornholm, in the Bal
tic sea, may be regarded as a huge
magnet. Although the power Of at
traction is not so great as to draw
nails and bolts out Of approaching
ships, the magnetism works a good
deal Of damage in that it defects the
needle of the compass so that it can
not be depended upon. The effect Is
perceptible at distance of nine and a
half miles.

that at least an inch of the stocking

many of the manneqins looked like

Russian Boots Again in Evidence.
Several Of the women were booted
according to the Russian fashion. The
woman who wore the floating. panel
dress described above, had the long
boots in black patent leather. They
were made the same as riding boots,
wide enough at the ankle for the foot
to slip through. There were other
Russian boots in fawn leather trim
med with tan; one of the mannequins
wore a pair of white kid boots trim
med with black patent leather.
Society vies With the Mannequins.
Indeed, society, seemed to be booted
and gowned as smart, if not smarter,
than the mannequins themselves. The
whole atmosphere breathed of fashion
There is something really fascinating
about these women, slipping tea and
watching women wear the gowns that
they themselves may wear later on.

Striped Faille a Favored Fabric

Every dress showed at least two
materials; heavy faille silk was fav-
ored fabric. One tall blonde name
quin wore a dress of striped satin and
grosgrain silk which was particularly
new and attractive. Its simplicity baf-
fies description, it's charm being in the
clever use of stripes. The skirt had a
pleated lower section, killed one might
say, for it was straight and laid in
deep folds from the hip to the bottom.
This was cut with the stripes cross
wise, while the yoke, waist, and cuffs
had the stripes straight up and down.
There was a sheer vest and Quaker
collar of crisp white Swiss, the sleeves
of black Georgette crepe making a
striking contrast with the cuffs of the

When we think of bazaars, we nat
urally conjure up pictures of fancy
work in the name Of charity, even the
wholesome odors of cruellers and the
picturesque whitehead cake, Mrs.
Thompson on the corner made spec
ialty of-but bazaars have outgrown
this honey atmosphere and today
have become bazaars Of fashion. No
longer do you attend to buy Christmas
gifts and goodies, but more properly
to learn what to wear and when to
wear it, or, perchance, to show your
own new dress.
Fashion Fetes in the Name of Charity
Newport is the setting for some OF
these bazaars. Here on the spacious
lawns of country homes, mannequlns
display the very latest modes from
Paris vieing in smartness with the
women who come to see them. There
are tableaux and grand promenades
and best of all you can sip tea and
view them with conscience free from
guile, for your entrance fee goes to
sweet charity.
The latter part of last week the ba-
zaar of the season was held at the
home of one of the leaders of the
Newport set. In artistic tableau,
backed by Grecian summer houses, all
the summer modes were reviewed and
predictions made for the coming seas
on.
