BY ELOISE.

1t seems so natural TO get fash
ions imported from Paris that one
is likely to forget that for two years
Faris sent over scarcely enough to
notice. Now we are being almost
flooded with them and they are
having no difficulty in getting re-
established in this country. Ameri-
cans have been wearing American
made and American-designed frocks
for some time. They have begun
to really like them and now some
women even prefer them to the i'm
ported things.
No matter what ones views are
concerning American and French
fashions this Paris version of
spring sports suit will appeal to
the girl who likes tailleur modes.
II was originally made in navy sill
yertone, but ii has been copied in
navy and rookie jersey and in serge.
\ long three-quarter length coat
plainly marks the suit as imported,
for our American suits are using
short coats this season. Buttons,
novel patch pockets, and a blue
leather belt form the only embeI-
liShments to an otherwise plainly
tailored coat. The skirt is a plain,
rather tight and short affair with
pockets also.
To complete the tailored air
silk skirt with a detachable collar
is worn with the suit and a white
sailor of fine straw tops it.

PUBLIC GETS ITS FIRST REAL
VIEW OF CARNEGIE'S DAUGHTER

Newark, n. J.-Miss Margaret
Carnegie, the iron masters daugh-
ter, who probably is the least
known and least conspicuous scion
Of great wealth in the United States,
il not in the world, made her first
really public appearance when she
smashed a bottle of champagne
against the steel side of the ship
Strathnaver, which went overheard
from one of the ways of the Downey
Shipbuilding corporation at Airing
ton a few days ago.
Because OF the seclusion in which
Miss Carnegie has been brought up
and the family's aversion 10 pub
Lefty, legends have developed about
Eer. and the persons that assem-
E,ed about the high bow OF the
Strathnaver wondered what sort of
a person they were going to see.
There was much more interest in
her than there was in the vessel
aud little wonder, for the ship is an
ordinary freighter OF $500 tons. 392
feet long and 81 beam, with a "a
foot draft. Just a ship.
But Miss Margaret Carnegie, the
assemblage learned to its delight,
is a sweet-faced girl in her early
2G's, fair to look upon, with chest
nut hair and bright blue eyes, a
winning smile and a daintily slen-
der figure-altoget a charming
person. With her was her fiance,
Ensign Roswell Miller, U. S. N,
whose left sleeve showed by two
gold service stripes that he had
done a years bit in overseas ser
vice with our navy.
What does the name Strathnav-
er signify?" some one asked, as
MISS Carnegie in a downpOur of
rain was ascending to a platform
built at the ships bow.

unteered. 1.-The word fstrath,' you
see, means valley, and Strathuaver

father used to wander in Scotland

The name of the saip means the
