Necessity for the stabilization of
foreign exchange and the extension of
credits abroad as means of iurther-
ing American commercial interests was
emphasized in the senate last Satur-
day when the export finance bill of
Senator Edge, Republican. New Jerscy,
was taken up. After adopting a num-
Der of amendments to the measure, the
senate adjourned until Monday, when
the discussion will be resumed. The
bill, prepared by the federal reserve
board, and approved by Secretary
Glass and q number Of leading finan-
ciers Of the country, provides for the
formation of banking corporations ana
for their financing SO as to enable them
to do business abroad. The senate
went on record as opposing foreign in
terests participating in the control of
the corporations. By unanimous vote
1t adopted an amendment by Senator
Smoot requiring all members Of the
board Of directors instead Of q ma
jority," as proposed, be American
citizens. The senate also amended the
bill so as to require the corporations
to engage entirely in foreign banking
and other financial operations, instead
ofsHprincipally."' as originally provided
The senate adopted amendments by
Senator Gronna prohibiting corpora
tions formed under the act from en-
gnging in commerce or trade, or inter-
fering in the freedom Of competition
in the sale of commodities. Another
amendment by him providing that no
corporations formed under the bill
should invest in any one corporation
In amount exceeding 1 per cent. Of
It's capital and surplus except In
corporation engaged principally in the
banking business also was accepted.

and so lavishly ornamented are some
of them that blouses of sheer. trans

soles pictured is heightened by adding
a yoke of silver lace along the upper
edge of the pale pink ribbon and the
silver lace is drawn up by narrow

through openings in the lace. Some
times a lace pattern has flowers with

Lace Lavishly Used In New Ncgligees
Two trousseau neglgees of the au-
tumn season are pictured one made
Of orchid chiffon and ecru net lace;
the other Of pale yellow chiffon with
cream filet. The lavish use Of lace is
notable in both instances and these
luxurious tea gowns are typical mod
els Of the season. The orchid gown
is almost as formal as dinner gown
and l am sure neither you or I would
mind wearing it at dinner, strictly er

bers of the family would say Is a

is an exquisite perfume for the hair
a perfume clean, fresh and sweet and
never heavy or overpoweling. Some
times a little violet sachet is mixed
with the orris powder, but most other
scents are too heavy for this purpose,
The perfume cap is in two parts,
crown and brim, both made of wide
satin ribbon, though the ribbon in
the brim is pleated and the crown
ribbon is gathered. A pompon Of
narrow ribbon covers the gathering
stitches at the top of the crown and
narrow ribbon is used for the strings
that tie under the chin-or at the
back of the neck as one prefers. The
pleated ribbon of tho brim is attached
to the gathered crown under a row of
closely placed little ribbon flowers;
and lower down on the brim is another
line of these tiny flowers; a posy to
each pleat. Inside the cap is a de-
tachable lining made of thin India
silk. This lining cap is double and
between the layers of silk is a layer
and violet powder. Fresh perfume
may be added from time to time by
ripping one side of the lining cap and
inserting new powder.
In the same picture is a pretty little
sachet for the corset a ribbon flower
with streamer ends. Back of the flow
er is a tiny silk envelope with a snap
fastener; and perfumed cotton is
slipped inside the silk envelope. An
other corset sachet is shown in one of
the apron pictures. This sachet is
rather big bow OF handsome satin rib
very fiat across the top of the front
steel of the corset. Two or three little
chiffon roses decorate the center Of
the bow and the long loops conceal a
long, fiat sachet at the back.
The apron in this Illustration is a
gay little affair. more for coquetry
than for real use; though It will keep
scraps of lint, floss and yarn from
sticking to the lap when its wearer
| is doing fancy work. Three lengths
of wide, pale blue satin ribbon make
the three panels, which are set togeth-
er with narrow filet insertion. The
rounded edge of the apron is hemmed
in very narrow hem and a full rufIle
of narrow pale blue satin ribbon is
whipped to the edge of the tiny hem.
The long ribbon which makes the belt
and strings is doubled over the top
of the apron and featherstitched in
place; and while the belt is rather
narrow the doubled ribbon unfolds in
the bow and ends at the back in
cAnr -A=I-l effect.

SPATS AGAIN THE FASHION

P OR no whim of Madam Nodes Is
a femininity more grateful than for
y the whim of spats. 1t seemed
almost too good to be true that
Madam Mode should fancy spats again
this year-after two successive sea-
sons wear. But she does. Spats will
be just as fashionable as ever this
coming winter and the best shades
will be taupe, smoke gray and dark
brown; the last for wear with pumps
of brown leather. There is always
pleasant economy in spat wear, for
ones pretty slippers and pumps left
over from summer time will do serv-
ice all through the autumn under
trim spats; and it is possible to get
along all winter with fewer pairs OF
high shoes. Stout soled shoes must
one have for stormy days and wet
pavements, but dainty pumps and
spats are always good style with dress
up costumes of tailored type.

fully draped all down one side and
the orchid chiffon is dropped over an
underslip Of white chiffon. new
sleeve. The pale yellow model is
tea frock." 1t lacks the long lines
and statelness of a regulation tea
gown, but makes up in coquetry and
charm. There is first, a pleated slip
of pale yellow crepe de chine sus-
pended from a little yoke with Shout
der straps; and over this slip goes the
loose coat Of pin-tucked yellow chif-
fon. Flounces of cream filet drop
from the sleeve and from the edge of
the coat and there is a big sailor col
lar of the lace weighted with ribbon
loops and ends in palest lavender.
Probably the most gorgeous of the
pictured negligees is the tea gown of
faint Nile green chiffon brocaded with
silver shamrocks, with sleeves Of fine
white lace. This exquisite garment Is
made in straight panels set together
with very open hemsttching. Under
the pale green and silver panels is a
slip of white chiffon weighted with
silver fringe and tied in slightly at
the hip under silver fringed sash.
Another fringed model that is part
of an october trousseau is Of palest
gray satin with deep fringe Of self.

Only the woman who can squander

negligee in most wardrobes has to be
a more formal affair, suitable for an
appearance below stairs. in case of
temporary invalidism; or a luxurious
tea gown in which one need never

to tell from dinner frocks. and in.

The New Farthingale Silhouette

T UTUMN frocks are distendod
EG over the hip in quaint sugges
tlon of the farthingale fashion
of Queen Elizabeth's time. y
new frocli from Paris emphasizes this
Ellzabethan effect. The frock, which
is of black satin, has a neatly fitting
bodice to the wastline and the skirt
is gathered to this bodice with long
and short stitches, the satin looping
out between the stitches and making
a sort Of shelf all around the figure,
suggesting a farthingale worn under
meath. There is also an Elizabethan
ruff of pleated tulle standing up
around the square decolletage and ris-
ing to considerable height behind the
head Below :he square decolletage
is a vest of Florentine red silk en-
broidered in gold. The sleeves are
tight for five inches below the arm
hole and then balloon out TO great
width. and are gathered again snugly
al the wrist. A striking frock ii is.

aired before their actual need-ume
arrives. DO not put off the moment
until some nlpping day when you feel
that fur around the throat would be
real comfort; but have the fur neck
piece ready before that time Furs
sent to a good cold storage house are
carefully safeguarded. Each garment
is hung separately and the extreme
cold keeps the pelts glossy and smooth.
But furs packed away at home in a
camphor or cedar chest are apt to
emerge looking rather hopeless. The
pelt is matted and looks dull. Long
fur seems kinky and short fur creased.
And the smell of the moth bail is
peryasive. Hang the furs out of doors
not in the sunlight-on a cold,
windy day; and hang them out on sew
eral successive days. Beat them and
shake them; go over them with a
stiff whisk broom dipped lightly in
cold water-to get the dust out In
three or four days they will look very
much better. 1t pays to have furs
cleaned and freshened by a furrier
