Shops and Things

TUCKED away here and there in
New York, and known only to the
initiated, are ever so many individual
shops. One such, called the Maxon
Gown Shop, is on Broadway at 4Sth
Street. The Maxon slogan is 1.-TWO
unusual gowns at the usual price of
one and they actually succeed in
giving this service to their clientele.
It is done in this way: Model
gowns are picked up here and there
from New York showrooms and from
designers both here and abroad. Be
.ause they are models they are sold
at about half the prevailing price,
and sometimes even less. No two
models are alike

Copns of Fine Linen
Offer a Striking Contrast

IN CONTRAST to this there are
gowns of fine linen inserted with
Benge lace and trimmed with hand
draWnwork, tucks and the conven
tlonal pink lingerie bows. Ruffles
pleated in way known only to the
French laundress are added to the
batlste gown shown in the group at
the bottom of the page. The gown
slips over the head, the only fasten-
lngs being pink ribbons, which tie all
the way down sleeves that are
open from top to bottom. The
gown is slit to the knees at either
side and has ruff1e, edged with real
lace, around the bottom and contin-
uing up the sides.
Negllgees are more beautiful than
ever, and tea gowns, beloved by
English women, vie with evening
dresses in beauty of design and
trimming. Metal cloth as a. fabric
has even invaded the realm Of
the boudoir. Blue and gold bro
caded metal tissue forms such
a gown with full flowing sleeves
OF blue chiffon outlined with
gold GALLON. For another, chiffon
brocaded in rose and silver is chosen.
These brocaded chiffons are charm
ing. Then there are simple little
negllgees made of Georgette crepe
almost entirely covered with soft
white worsted embroidery.
Lounging robes made in Turkish
designs are very much like an elab-
crate suit of pajamas with the trou-
sers gathered in at the ankles. This
may seem rather an absurd fashion.
but there were days when panta-
lettes were a very important STYLE
feature; beautiful ladies then at
tended the opera and balls in their
straight robes, short and scantv.
beneath which dangled frilly panta-
lettes permitting only the merest
tips of tiny slippers to appear.

In the Bride S Chest

IN the days of the Renaissance
every patrician bride had two
large trousseau chests, the capacity
Of each chest being about that of a
good sized trunk of the present
day. At that time bureaus had not
been invented, and these dover
chests were the universal contain
ers. In fact, they were the chief
articles of furniture during a pc
Rod when little stools served as
chairs and when tables were nothing
more than movable slabs of wood.
In those days great craftsmen
did not disdain to use their talents
on household goods, therefore
chests were highly pictorial, with
their beautiful carvings.
The preparation of linens for fut-
ure brides began when they were
children, and these lovely hand
wrought things when finished were
locked away in the trousseau chests
to preclude the possibility of their
being stolen, because they were real
treasures; so Italian craftsmen be-
came most ingenious in making in
tricate and elaborate steel locks for
these boxes.

In the Trousseau Chest
OF the Modem Bride

II THE trousseau of the modern
bride are many combinations, con-
slstlng of a petticoat and camisole.
They are formed of filet insertions
and bands of hand embroidered ba-
tlste in an old ivory tone. Some
times antique embroideries are used
IN these garments made of batiste
At other times net is hand embroid-
cred TO make the body of the gar
ment and medallions of the batiste
and filet lace are inserted.
Many of them, like coats, but

front with satin ribbon run through

One, of pink net, is trimmed with
real lace dyed pale pink; a great
deal of fine hand tucking and en-

net. There are also little combina-

In the French trousseau Of the

quently made of dyed net in pale
colors. The bottoms are cut in seal
lops and are either embroidered or
finished with ribbon bindings. Lit
tie wheels of narrow faille ribbon in
the same color are put here and
there as trimmings; faille taking
the place of the lingerie ribbon to
which we have been accustomed.
Sometimes little bowknots of dou-
bie-faced lingerie ribbon are lust
stuck anywhere over the garments
without special design. For instance,
pink net combination will have
ribbon bows that are blue on one
side and gold on the other, or yellow

The Garter Discards
Its Humble Ca1-b

VEN carriers have, at times,
played a more or less important
part in the chronicles of fashion.
In the early part of the nineteenth
century, when there was a craze for
clothes made of the most transpa-
rent of Indian stuffs, carriers were
very elaborate, so we may assume
that they were intended to be seen.
Then when hoopskirts were short
and wide dressmakers were advised
to make the petticoais short SO that

Long and straight are these tea
gowns and their materials are in
marked contrast to the chifons,
gauzes, laces and ribbons in which
femininity INDUCES itself in the

in which one may even dine in
formally, demand dignifed brocades,
velvets and tissues Of gold and sill

Little french Flowers
Woven Into a Flounce

Around the quilt went a wide
founce of plain white net cut in
pointed scallops and the scallops
edged with picot. To make it even
more elaborate, little French flowers
Of soft silk in beautiful colorings
were woven into garlands in the
form of half hoops and used as a
further ornamentation. Some of
the other new spreads are made
entirely &c squares of Normandy
laces joined with insertion. There
are small pillow slips to match these
spreads.

Another new idea is to trim white
Georgette crepe nightgowns with
black lace. For the Cow. pictured
on this page point d'esprit insertion
is used. The sleeves are mere frills
attached to the body of the gown by
strips of black satin ribbon. A lit.
tie pocket of black lace and Geor-
gette and long streamers of the
black ribbon make it still more
effective.

Some carriers of the present day
are quite elaborate. They are made
Of all sorts of silks, ribbons, laces
and embroideries and are orna-
mented with bows. One pair from
Fifth Avenue shop, shown at the top
of the page, is made of blue silk
fringed at either side and embroid-
cred in lavender and pink.
Others are made of black laces
entwined with gaily colored silken
flowers.
The idea of the old-fashioned
patchwork quilt of Colonial DAYS
is revived in some of the newest
covers for the bed or chaise Tongue.
Several kinds of lace are pieced
together to make quilt and
mounted over pink or blue satin
coverlet. One that I saw had
Irish and Venise laces, and between
these were set blocks of batiste

pose that presentday women NAV

A new idea in boudoir caps is to
make them without any tops. These
caps are merely bands of ribbon or
Georgette crepe shirred to elastics
and outlined with Valcnciennes lace.
They tie in front with big bows of
double-faced satin lingerie ribbon.

Kimonos u7ted With
The Glory Of Venice

'EHEN there are the trailing chit
fon gowns in batik designs that
have become so popular, and some of
our American buyers have imported
Venetian velvet robes as kimonos.
These are in velvets Of mellow old
colorings, the entire surface painted
in dull gold and silver There is a
dull red one painted in gold and
lined with olive green. One of mole
velvet is lined with Vatican red.

Tea dresses in no way resemble
the informality of the negligee, al
though they are generally supposed
to be close of kin. The difference
is marked in both line and fabric.

A return to the custom of the
days of our -grandmothers is
evidenced in the use of nightgown
bags. In olden days much time and
energy were expended in embroider-
ing elaborate designs on them. In

one is shown Of pink satin shocked
with gold threads, the lining being
shirred white Georgette.

which officials of the association had
approved. the street paralleling his
ground was closed.
Mr.. Pick. through counsel, con-
tended that the organization had no

TREATY HACKERS
SOUND CALL In
SENATE FIGHT
Administration Forces Alarm
ed at Ease Shantung Amend
ment Went Through

Washington. D. c.. Aug. 25.-A
rallying call to defeat the efforts ot
the Treaty opponents went out
from the administration leaders III
the Senate who are mastering their
full strength for the coming battle
when the Treaty is reported out of
the Foreign Relations Committee.
The ease with which the Shan
tung amendment was carried
through has convinced Senator
Hitchcock that there is no chances
ot holding back the Republican
forces in the committee and the
quicker the Treaty fight is carried
into the open the better are the
chances of the Democrats.
The Senate as a whole will not
indorse the Shantung amendment,
ii was declared, but nevertheless.
there is alarm in the administration
group, who are advised daily that
President Wilson's position in the
Shantung settlement is not viewed
favorably by the citizens at large.
Whether the Republicans. how
ever. can muster enough votes to
confirm the committee action on
Shantung, when it is realized that
such action will mean the return
of the Treaty and its probable com =
plete defeat, is considered dubious
even by some OF the radical oppo-
nents of the Treaty.
