world, Paris is proving the happy hunting ground for this part of the wardrobe as American visitors pour into the gates daily. As a striking example of all that Paris offers in the way of hand-made lingerie, the specialty shop of “Leone” in the Rue des Petits-Champs affords many smart new styles in combinations, chemise and nightgowns, just the kind that sends a woman into rapturous exclamations when each model is displayed to her. Rather narrow escrit lace, with the pattern outlined in gold, trims a smart little combination which laces at the sides with the pink crêpe de Chine
laces at the sides with the pink crêpe de Chine which forms the body of the garment. Breton lace in large triangles makes almost the whole of a full combination which is trimmed with long, slim triangles of crêpe de Chine—pink, of course, as most women prefer it to yellow, blue or green, all of which can be had chez Leone. In some of the models the lace motif is cut out, and applied to the crêpe de Chine around the hem, across the top and along one side. A boléro line is shown in one of the nightgowns, cleverly
boléro line is shown in one of the nightgowns, cleverly introduced by the inset bands of delicate lace in the bodice. For color variation, “Leone” uses old rose crêpe de Chine in a nightgown decorated with appliqué motifs of blue and yellow butterflies. White georgette forms a big “U” yoke in another nightgown which is joined to the crêpe de Chine, forming the pleated body of the gown, by tiny cut flowers inset with punch-stitching. “Leone” knows well the practical side of things in times of heat and she proves her knowledge in many ways, including a dressing gown which
her knowledge in many ways, including a dressing gown which is made of pink brocaded silk banded with satin. The cut follows the lines of a man's double-breasted waistcoat, while the sleeves are elbow length—both practical ideas, for how well women know the story of trailing sleeves and dressing gowns that refuse to set well in the side closing. GOLD KNEE-BRACELETS CREATE NEW SENSATION One of the most sensational creations of the season, the gold knee-bracelet, brought on by Promet, is heralded as one of the important departures in the matter of accessories.

AS NEW TOPIC IN PYJAMA MODE Brocade Smoking Jackets in Rose Tones—English Silks for Ties—“Fil-à-fil” in Handkerchiefs. Despite the relatively limited number of items to be discussed in men’s wear, a day in a few of the shops in Paris shows any number of new and different ideas. In few minutes one finds new topics at Facio Heberer in the Avenue de l’Opéra. Take the pyjama mode, for instance. One begins to think that it is mainly a matter of soft collars, permanent trouser cuffs, and contrasting pipings. With this general idea in mind, it is refreshing to find a
general idea in mind, it is refreshing to find a new cut. White crêpe de Chine is the medium used for these new house pyjamas, which are a modification of the Russian tunic. There is no collar. That is a change in itself. There are no buttons. Another innovation. The sleeves have no cuffs and are of the same width from shoulder to wrist, which gives a modified flowing movement. Fine white braid binds the neckline, which is cut in a shallow “U” opening in front, while the braid edges the whole suit and divides the sleeves in the centre.
the whole suit and divides the sleeves in the centre. Which gives a new line to this detail in the pyjama coat. The trousers are quite full. The tunic may be bloused considerably by means of the broad silk belt which ties at one side. Another item at Facio Heberer is a smoking jacket which is made in a rather large pattern of fruit and flowers brocaded in a soft mixture of silk and wool. Old rose is the dominating color in the design, stressed by the lining in old rose crêpe de Chine, which is used, too, for the
rose crêpe de Chine, which is used, too, for the revers, pocket and belt. Every house that caters to men is a law unto itself in the choice of patterns for neckwear and handkerchiefs. At Facio Heberer, English silks in striped patterns are preferred for the new ties. The richness and the exceptional quality are undeniable to the touch as well as to the eye. In handkerchiefs, Facio Heberer shows “fil-à-fil” crêpe de Chine in which two sides of the border are in deeper tones than the other two. The centers are in fine checks while the borders are only
centers are in fine checks while the borders are only striped. Checkerboard patterns in two tones of the same color—grey for instance—are noted in other types, while a plain colored border in contrasting tone is used. Rose supplements the grey and serves as an ideal example of the color combinations. Colored pin stripes and checks are used in white georgette handkerchiefs in which the stripes are of six different tones—mauve, brown, red, blue, beige and black.

la Sourdière (Nr. St. Roch Church.) — (Announcement.) PAINTED MOTIFS ON SHOES For either shoes or stockings to have painted floral motifs is not a new idea, but to have these designs match on both is an innovation brought out by one of the stores in Paris. In each set, the grey, beige or pink-beige kid shoes match the silk stockings. As a general rule, the floral pattern is quite small, especially when it is used round the open top of the shoe, while it winds in vine fashion quite high along the docks of the stocking. The same idea
high along the docks of the stocking. The same idea is repeated in silk under vests and mules. A small spray of flowers is painted across the front of the silk vest and along one side over the vamp of the satin mules. GIFTS What shall I take back to our friends? A nice bag from MARGANNE. Come in and see. 217, Rue Saint-Honoré, Paris (Announcement). AN ABC OF FASHIONS F stands for many things. First of all for FABRICS, which are vital to the mode. There is “FLAMINGA,” a crinkly silk in the order of marocain, made by Bianchini.
crinkly silk in the order of marocain, made by Bianchini. This is popular for afternoon frocks, while other FABRICS, such as crêpe satin, “chine,” the kasha family by Reder, chiffon, and that soft summery material, “FRISKA,” by Meyer are all alluring to the woman who would be well-dressed. F stands, too, for FOX, the popular fur for the scarf which may be worn with suit or ensemble, or which may be dyed to match the coat either for a race costume or for evening wear. Some of the very smart scarves in FOX are made of two foxes and a
scarves in FOX are made of two foxes and a long pelt falls to the hem of the coat or suit while the other winds about the throat rather snugly or it falls across the shoulders. F stands for FANS, which may be in dyed ostrich colored to match. G stands for GLOVES, an important accessory which completes other accessories or some detail in the costume whether color, trimming, or some special point such as short sleeves, for, in this case, eight-button pull-on gloves are considered very smart. Cuffs of gloves are feathered, embroidered, appliqué in leather or lizard skin,
gloves are feathered, embroidered, appliqué in leather or lizard skin, studded with gold or silver nail-heads, and again delicately piped with ribbons or a reptile skin. G stands, too, for GARTERS, so essential to neatness; there seems to be no end to the varieties of these shown all over Paris. There are lace ones, satin ones, grosgrain and chiffon, all with some elaborate decorative note or a tiny row of rosebuds placed over the shirred ribbons. As a rule, it is much smarter to have the GARTERS match the stocking; if these are black chiffon, then the GARTERS are in
if these are black chiffon, then the GARTERS are in black lace. G comes forward as an important letter in its application to GEORGETTE, a fabric which fashions many of the smart gowns for afternoon and evening wear, and which appears plain, embroidered in many ways and sometimes made with the popular cut-work of the season.

St. Luke’s Church, at Roadwater, near Minehead, has been broken into by intruders who tore down an organ pipe, smashed the music rack, bent a brass cross on the altar, stuffed the vestry window with cassocks and scattered and trampled surplices and other vestments. They stripped all the cupboards, splashed ink on the walls, drank all the Communion wine, and flung the bottles among the Communion plate, which was strewn all about the church.

The King has accepted a novel motor badge designed by the Marchioness of Titchfield in connection with her special appeal for £100,000 in aid of the National Association for the Prevention of Tuberculosis, of which His Majesty is patron. In a message of acceptance the King congratulated Lady Titchfield on the success she has achieved in response to her appeal, more than £35,000 having been raised since last July. The King’s Birthday.

Birthday. The Horse Guards Parade was a brilliant scene yesterday in the sunshine during the pageant marking the King’s birthday. The Trooping of the Colour brought out thousands of eager watchers who surrounded completely the 2,000 special troops on parade. The massed bands of the Guards regiments and King George with male members of his family, mounted and in dazzling uniforms, figured in a scene full of color and movement that never fails to please. Her Majesty and Princess Mary and various members of the Royal family watched the ceremonies. The King was cheered to the echo by the crowd.

(Paris Times Correspondence) New York, May 24. Talk of the organization by the Van Sweringens of the Chesapeake Corporation to hold the stock whereby those Cleveland brothers already control a couple of railroads.... Talk of the $48,090,000 bond issue that is to finance this new step towards the much-touted Nickel Plate merger.... Talk of the Van Sweringens' application to the Interstate Commerce Commission for permission to take control of
the Interstate Commerce Commission for permission to take control of a couple more railroads—the Erie and the Pere Marquette—and to sell $59,502,400 more stock in the Chesapeake and Ohio... Or talk of any of the other big railroad mergers projected (and you will have to note the millions of dollars involved in two and three and four figures).... But you are overlooking one of the most remarkable achievements in current rail operation unless you also talk about the death and resurrection of the Kanona and Prattsburgh Railroad in Steuben County, this State. The Secretary of Commerce had some good words
this State. The Secretary of Commerce had some good words to say in Washington a few weeks ago about the achievements of the railroads in the five years since they emerged from Government control. For the first time they are supplying the country “with completely adequate transportation,” Herbert Hoover assured the Atlantic States Shippers Regional Advisory Board, “If anyone wants to argue the question of Government ownership of railroads in the United States, he has to get over this concrete demonstration of the capacity of private ownership to solve its problems,” said Mr. Hoover. No doubt he was referring to
problems,” said Mr. Hoover. No doubt he was referring to the New York Central and the Pennsylvania and the Michigan Central and the Southern Pacific and such. Whether Secretary Hoover realized it or not, his words applied as truly to the Kanona and Prattsburgh since the farmers of Steuben County took it over. You’ve never heard of the Kanona and Prattsburgh Railroad? Well, perhaps not. After all it is only eleven miles long. But it connects with the Erie Railroad at Kanona and it penetrates a rich rural territory. Farmers use it to get fruit and produce into metropolitan markets.
use it to get fruit and produce into metropolitan markets. And for all its brief extent it touches six cities—Prattsburgh, Pulteney, Wheeler, Avoca, Urbana, and Kanona. Martin Phinney conceived the idea of the railroad in 1886 and two years later it was opened to traffic. It failed to pay expenses from the start. Its Prattsburgh father and financier withdrew and the mortgage was foreclosed by the hard-hearted Wall Street interests. However, it was operated until 1917. Finally Wall Street decided to junk the line. The little butter and egg men of Steuben County objected to this arbitrary severing of the
of Steuben County objected to this arbitrary severing of the feeder line between their industry and the mother market. So the farmers organized a company and sold stock and raised the mortgage and saved the old roadbed. Then they got busy with repairs and soon had the road and rolling stock in first-class condition. All expenses have been met from that moment. And even if the K. & P. cuts no melons, it hauls them. That's the main consideration in Steuben County. "Run-your-own" is quite the thing in transportation. Automobiles are rented on the "drive-yourself" plan. Commuters band together to
are rented on the "drive-yourself" plan. Commuters band together to ride into Manhattan in motor luxury. And the residents of Dobbs Ferry are running their own ferry. Ferry service between this New York City and the opposite shore of the Hudson started before the Revolutionary War. George Washington is supposed locally to have spent quite a lot of his time crossing on the ferry. All worthy men since then have done the same. Last Fall the sixty-five-year-old riverman stopped his motor launch and in no uncertain terms announced his retirement to the Sabine farm. A new boat had been used
to the Sabine farm. A new boat had been used since. A few days ago citizens organized the Stevens Landing Association for mutual protection and a ferry service. Once more there is a real ferry at Dobbs Ferry. The farmers of Steuben County elected a lawyer president of their railroad. Thus they pay two jobs with one salary. Under the control of James H. Flaberty the company has prospered more than ever. Nowadays the magic word in the railroad world is "merger." The farmer-owners of the K. & P. hope that the interests controlling the Erie Railroad and extending it
that the interests controlling the Erie Railroad and extending it to connect with the New York Central at Canandaigua. An eleven-mile railroad is not particularly short. Consider the Emmitsburg Railroad in Maryland—independent and a little under seven miles. Or take the Beaver Valley Railroad —four miles long. Or the Chaffee railway in West Virginia with one locomotive, one box-car, one gondola, and three and a quarter miles of track. Or the three-mile Bauxite and Northern Railway Company. Or the L’Anguille River Railroad in Arkansas—one locomotive and two miles of track. Or the Beaumont Saratoga Transportation Company—one mile of track. So
Or the Beaumont Saratoga Transportation Company—one mile of track. So the K. & P. doesn’t stack up so badly. And it can point with pride to its rolling stock—one locomotive, one gasoline-operated combination baggage and passenger car, two standard passenger cars, and several freight and coal cars. Here is a proposition O. P. and M. T. Van Saverinen will probably look into if the Interstate Commerce Commission lets them build up their fifty or sixty million-dollar merger. The eleven-mile Kanona and Prattsburgh would just round out the Nickel Plate system. THE PARIS TIMES.—No. 1,090. THIS RAILROAD IS SOME FARM RELIEF
THE PARIS TIMES.—No. 1,090. THIS RAILROAD IS SOME FARM RELIEF Here is the lone locomotive of the Kanona and Prattsburgh Railroad—eleven miles long and never merged yet. The farmers of Steuben County (New York) took it over after years of deficits had pushed it to the junk heap. They needed a railroad to get their products to the city markets. The K. & P. now pays no great dividends but it does pay expenses. And it is flirting with the Erie Railroad—object, merger. In Paris and the Provinces; Parisians Depart for Holidays French and Other Visitors Throng Boulevards Despite Prediction
for Holidays French and Other Visitors Throng Boulevards Despite Prediction of Uncertain Weather. With an uncertain weather outlook and with occasional showers predicted the Pentecost holidays actually started in Paris yesterday afternoon. By three o'clock, the city had already taken on a "festival" atmosphere. Although the boulevards today were thronged with people it was apparent that the crowds were by no means all Parisians. Of all the year’s holidays, Pentecost is one when the people of Paris hie themselves to the country and the seashore and forget business for a taste of leisure. English, with the cross-Channel accent, was the
taste of leisure. English, with the cross-Channel accent, was the language of the day, today on café terrasses and in restaurants. Whitsun in England means a holiday in Paris to thousands of British people. As always, Parisians abandoned their city to the invader. Special services were inaugurated by all the railroads and trains to the country and the seaside were packed. Business houses in Paris will be closed tomorrow, the banks and the Bourse observing the holiday. Many small shops and cafés which remain open every other day in the year will have their shutters up.
