English Hotel in Paris.

As early as 1892 there existed an
English hotel at Paris. II was owned
by a man named White and IA stu
ated opposite the church Of Notre
Dame DIES Victories. It's chief Glen
tele was drawn from the English lib
erals Of the day, who were attracted
to Paris by the British enthusiasm for
the French revolution. For, as a
writer in the Anglo-F rench Review
points out. 'if George III and the To-
ries watched with anxious eye the
progress of democracy, the whole lib
eral party, imbued with the Ideas of
Rousseau, was amazed at the flashing
developments in France" Among the
noted guests there lodged was Tom
Paine, author of the age of Reason"
Lord Fitzgerald wrote home of him
1--WE breakfast, dine and sup together.

more | love and respect him" The
hotel Is Intimately concerned with the

The dominant note in all
suits is chenille stitching
and braiding. It is used
lavishly on suits youthful
and mature in line as well
as tailored garments, and
never used twice alike. For
in one instance it may be
used in a solid effect of
large triangles; in another
it forms circle after circle
in a yoke effect on the coat
and still others have row
after row that trim collars
and cuffs. Bias bands, too,
of the suitng material
form bar effects and cross
and recross each other
forming q distinctive and
unique trimming. The up
turned collar is a new fash
ion conceit in suits. Be
it of self material Or fur, it
is attached to the suit in
only one place and may lay
low or be fastened snugly

may be termed q "Chin
