SATURDAY, JULY 13, 1912. O D i -’l4? /r Z*l /Ta ir \Ja a v 0 LA t*>"■■"l v 1 D Lady Duff-Gordon Describes Her ; Ly Newest Unique Dresses >/ Lady dlff-gordon. the famous “Lucile" of Lon- /L-' don. and foremost creator of ( fashions in the world, writes each week the fashion article for this newsaper, presenting all that is new- est and best in styles for well-dressed >a women. t Lady Duff-Gordon’s new Pans (' •’ establishment brings her into close Lu-/ touch with that centre of fashion. Lady Duff-Gordon’s American JtfrW establishment is at No. 17 West ( Thirty-sixth street. New York City. By Lady Duff-Gordon "Lucile.” I HAVE, perforce, an Ideal dress. \. [j the dress of all others that I would see worn by tall, Illy- <7\ slender women To wear my Idea! dress, milady must have tiger lily LilFj attributes: she must be graceful, sup- 1 pie. bending with very breath of wind. L ■ In the first photograph I show my Ideal girl and my idea! draped dress. k It Is made of double width charmeuse ptT and has no seam anywhere It clings l —* \ closely to the figure, by the knack z7D with which It Is draped. There is r -A art in every fold of the fabric. Fin- . '7—, gers ns clever as those of a sculptor produce this effect My ideal girl in ( my Ideal gown IS far finer than the hID finest bit of sculpture L2z In this mode! I have used a d»- lightful shade of blue charmeuse It C ) Is the shade of far distant hills, the Nu.»J chiffon scarf and embroideries are all In various tones of this same shade. To secure the perfect effect of this I _V costume the wearer must resemb'e my ideal girl In color, ns well r.s In F! 1 figure. She must be fair, with eyes j the blue of the distant hills, and skin / as delicate as the clouds that float L above ns at dawn. Very different are the two dear ( little girls In my second photograph Xzrx One so dark, the other so fair They are wearing two of my favorite */“ models, my 'wish” dresses. The fair / one hns a dainty little cobwebby ( jr frock. A sheer white lace over flesh- colored satin. There ar? touches of L_J \ brilliant white satin in skirt and _J bodice. It is the quaintest kind of GA an 1812 model, high belted, with a ,- A y bunch of tiny rosebuds tucked In at / - ~ > p- the left. The apron of lace, with I •- Its charming bits of pockets. Is a fetching conceit. Stockings of pale pink and tiny slippers of pale blue! / The hat and sunshade match tbe jl satin slippers, blue ns blue forget-me note. This little “wish” girl always makes me think of spicy pinks and tender forget-me-nots. H I The other little girl, the brown- Ov eyed maid, has a smart afternoon JZ? coat and skirt of the palest by drangea blue charmeuse. It is made k D with a slightly draped skirt. The n\ U very chic jacket has a peplum. There j are touches of water-green satin. The Qy hat is pale pink taffeta bound with dark green, and trimmed with a Zj'- ) wreath of old-fashioned flowers The first little “wish” girl, being (/ f— blonde, is quaint. The second, being - brunette. Is smart, chic. Brunettes should never attempt quaintness— Ok that should be left for blondes Charmeuse is used for the slippers L? instead of satin. And. by the way, 7° I find that of all branches for drap- ( r~i Ing. charmeuse Is the moat graceful V 1-4 and the most supple. \Z'"'?X As to evening gowns. Paris is pro- j claiming its favor for a bright—but x ~—4 not altogether beautiful—shade of sulphur yellow, though I doubt whether its popularity will carry f (k: j across the Channel, where, how- \ p_ ever, some of the less startling >c> shades of yellow will doubtless be worn. Then there is a new green vk called '‘Malachite” which is des tined and likely to be something of Os a rival to emerald tints, while though "caTrot red” certainly J sounds somewhat prosaic, not to /q •ay unattractive, as tbe description of another fashion favored color C\? ) You will find the reality more in spiring I fancy, more especially too, z ’ when it is softened by draperies / [~] and veilings of the lace, which \z> nowadays—and nights too —puts In \L-, an appearance on practically every r-i y gown and garment. The lace fashion, has In fact de veloped Into a positive furore, and even the tailor made suit is taking I ■ J unto itself, lace collars and frilled lace revers, in order not to be “out of it,” so that practically every make is In demand, from the finest chantilly and shadow laces to the \n heavy, boldly broidered "Micareme” varieties, while one and all are be- q) ing shown, too, in widths ranging from a wide "bead" edging to a I .? J) knee deep flounce. Do You Know That According to “Our Homeland Churches,” issued by the Homeland As sociation probably the most ancient Christian church in western Europe is the so-called oratory of Gallants, at Dingle, Ireland. The form of building resembles a wide-beamed boat turned with the keel upwards, The inside measurement of this “oratory’” is fifteen feet three inches by ten feet. The door way is five feet four inches in height, the opposite end having a small win dow, and the masonry, like that of the old clapper bridges on Dartmoor, is held in position without the use of mortar. It is supposed that this church was built previous to the date of the conquest. Mate, next to coffee and rubber. Is one of the greatest sources of wealth In Brazil. It is a strong rival to tea. It is estimated that 25.000,00 people drink mate in South America. Mate is the leaf of a tree of the ilex family, very similar to the European holly. The noteworthy point of the effect of mate on the system is its stimulating action on the cerebro-spinal organ Taken w ith sugar the first thing in the morning, it is very wholesome. To increase the number of Bibles in the hotels of Illinois from 8,300 to 35,-. 00, is the avowed object of the Gid eons, who met recently In Chicago for their fourteenth annual state conven tion. which opened in Grace Methodist Episcopal church. Extension of the “Bible corps" in Illinois was discussed, and an order for another carload of Bibles from the New York headquarters of the Gideons followed. Tokio, the capital of Japan, has a female population of 762.000. of whom 191.000 seek their livelihoods outside their own family circle. It is 83 years since the first horse drawn public omnibus ran in England; the first public motor ’bus ran eight years ago. A New York florist has made a fortune by growing. four-leaved clover plants, which are supposed by the su perstitious to bring luck to the owner They have certanly brought link to the florist. He brought his first plants into the market at the be ginning of April, and asked S 5 each for them. He sold 4.000 in a week. He is still selling hundreds of plants a day.
