African Natives ShoW
No Fear of Crocodiles

Crocodiles and natives fraterniZe in
the most friendly manner at Tumu, a
village on the Gold Coast of Africa.
Princess Marie Louise, cousin Of
King George of Great Britain, tells
about the good feeling between the
crocodiles and Gold Coasters in travel
letters, which have just been pub
lished
The natives regard crocodiles as the
familiar spirit of man and never
injure them. In fact, they believe
that any person who Injuries or kills a
crocodile also may be killed.
1--WE watched village women wan
dering about among crocodiles in the
village pool quite undisturbed," says
the princess. "The women seemed to
have no fear. They even pushed the
crocodiles aside if they got in their
way. The natives fill their pots and
bathe among the reptiles without the

One of the interesting features to
be noted in connection with the more
elaborate toilet is the popularity of
wide and rare old laceS. Lucien Le-

both the linen costume for summer
wear and the more formal costume.
The skirt of LelOng's linen ensemble
was of white linen, embroidered with
two wide bands Of blue. A linen vest,
also of white, embroidered with the
blue, added to the novel effect. The
vest was sleeveless and buttOned down
the front with huge pearl buttons.
With the skirt and the vest went a
blue linen coat, reaching to the hem
of the white skirt The coat was also
designed with the two wide bands of
embroidery only. To form a more

Latest Nightgowns More
Conservative in Line

NightgOwns in the present mode are
presented in great variety, having a
direct appeal for their style, beauty
and comfort Some of the novelties
brought over by importers are more
conservative in line than the extreme
ly decOllete filmy trifles that have
been worn for many seasons. The
new models are made with a belted
waistline, with ribbon sash and bow
ends, the upper part of the bodice re-
sembling negligee. Crepe de chine
is used even more than the more sheer
materials, with a simpler scheme of
trimming. An attractive gown of
American design will have an immedi-
ate appeal. The material is crepe de
chine in a delicate shade of peach,
with a yoke square at the top and
ending in a V formed of lace. A
double band of peach-cOlored georgette
is used to finish the deep-cut armhole
and the bottom of the gown.
A crepe gown designed on this side
is even more formal, having a deep
V outlined with an applique band cut
in points of georgette in a contrasting
shade. This model also has an edge
of geOrgette in a narrow fold, a dainty
detail that is shown in many of the
best models of both French and Amer

color placed on the hips. This sash is
sewn to the dress at the top and is
loose at the bottom, finished off at
the back in large fiat butterfly bow,
which has no hanging ends. The fa-
vorite color schemes for these dresses
are; Blue on pink, canary on char

Absence of Any Collar
Noted in Early Showing

In the early collection of models
from the best-knOwn French houses
were several suits whose chief point
of interest lay in the absence of any
collar These were exceptionally
smart and occasiOned much favorable
comment. That women were quick to
recognize their distinction and charm
is evidenced by the number of suits
of this type that now appear at smart
gatherings.
Fashioned of various materials,
these collarleSS suits possess a youth
full charm that is compelling. Their
very simplicity places them in the
ranks Of the ultra chic. Many women
are wearing suits Of this type, fash
iOned of heavy shantung or Chinese
damask, while others appear in models
developed in lightweight fiannels or
kashaS. Occasionally the suit is made
Of linen in fine checked designs. The
jumper blouse, also of linen, is in a
solid color. Flat pearl buttons are de-
tails Of interest.
Worn with the suit is one of the
large hats that may be said to domi-
nate the mode This is a fashion Pc
culiarly American and it is a very SEN
sible one, since the brilliant sunlight
makes shade hats not only desirable,
but almost necessity. Now that
fashion has once more approved OF
the hat of larger dimensions, women
have taken them up with much en-
thusiaSm.

Envelope Evening Bags
Are of Metallic Threads

Flat envelope evening bags, with
similar smaller purses to match, are
made entirely of metallic threads
woven together in conventional and
floral designs. Only metallic color
ings are used, and they include silver,
gold, steel, bronze, copper and plati-
mum cast. The flap is cut in cres-
cent shape, with a border design,
which is used about the edge also.
Quite different from conventional
evening bags, these are equipped with
patented clasps that insure the safe

ming frocks or the very elaborate ones
of metal cloth or velvet.
Suede is expected to return in all
it's old favor this fall in bags of all
cOlOrs. One lovely model, to carry
with a smart afternoon costume, is
made on a long frame and is slightly
shirred. A wide band extends about
the bag, to form a strap handle on
both sides. The clasp is in the form
of a short stubby bar Of Korean jade,
mounted in silver and combined with
marcasite work. Two circlets and
metal ends are other details of this
clasp. The bag is fitted with purse
and mirror and is lined with either
matching or contrasting silk. The
popular shades are green, tan, brown
and black.

Styles That Will
Last This Winter
Paris Has Been Showing
Apparel Designed for
Later Wear.

Recently the Paris modistes have
been showing gowns which may be
worn in the late summer and in the
early autumn.
Special exhibits of such types of
dresses have been arranged for the
women who expect to linger late at
fashionable seaside resorts or who
want the gowns for teas and for din
ner-dances at the country club.
Most of the models shown consist
of the more formal costume, appropri-
ate for the garden party or the dinner
dance
Although designed for hot days and
for Indian summer, many of these out
fits are of such style that they will
continue in vogue during the winter.
The mOdiSte still cherishes the Sc
crets of her winter trade, and is saw
ing them to show at her winter open
ing a few weeks hence. But she also
desires to cater to her American Gus
toners, and many of these are leaving
Paris before the winter openings. The
FariS modiste has no intention of in
curing the dfsfavor of the woman
from New York by trying to sell to
her too old a style. Therefore, the
midseaSon gown has been IN display,
the gown suitable both for late sum-
mer and for autumn wear
Two types of costume have been
shown-the wash dress or the simple
frock, something that may be worn
