Among these are evening dreasea made of three and even more sorts of lace, blouses trimmed with as many sorts) of luces, together with hand embroidery and fancy stitches. Empire costumes and creations which look like dressy long coat suits, but which, are over-skirts in disguise. Another point Is the toucb of metal that distinguishes nearly every dress and costume. Good tissue may be used for an applique, or a bit of gold braid may be run in with various effects, or the gold, or allver, may be nothing more showy than tho thread like Inlaying of a handsome button. AL'EMPIRB.

From Paquin there's a costume In Empire style. It is made from moes green broadcloth and consists of a coat and skirt. As one would expect, the skirt Is voluminous. It la of tha two-seam variety, with a seam down tUo centre front and back. The fullness la shirred In three times just below the waistline.

Tbe skirt is trailing a little at the back, with a voluminous effect. A box plait Is down the back of the coat. It falls over the yoke effect, from which the coat hangs straight and a trifle The buttons have been made to match. OVERSKIRT EFFECT. A lovelv eveninar dress Is of white Irish crochet, and Is composed of a bolero and a broadly Vandyxked skirt reaching; to the knees, which gives an overskirt effect.

Flounces of nompa- dour lace nil out the lower part of the skirt The whole la over palest pink silk and chiffon. The Jacket Is held on by a slash velvet surplice, threaded with silver braid a half inch In width. The effect is very rich. IN CHIFFON CORDUROY. A latest In a velvet weave, chiffon corduroy.

Is seen in duck blue, a dark, changing, gilstenlna; tone. At first srlance it looks to consist of a blouse coat with long skirts. But not so. It is a blouse sure enough, but the blouse ends with the wrinkled girdle. What looks to be the skirts of the blouse la the ikirt proper, or rather it is on the same binding, reaching to within three inches of the edae of the foundation skirt.

It la divided, like coat tails. and lined with black satin, the corners being turned back in reverse. It, as well as tbe blouse, is plaited. And It falls over a sham skirt of fine taffeta, which Is finished around with a shaped flounce of the corduroy and covered at 'tho centre front and back with a gore of the corduroy. The blouse opens over a vest of filet lace, which ia adorned with rows of gold sequins.

This promenade costume (not a suit), mind you.) is In walking length. BLACK NEXT THROAT. Quite unlike Parisian neck finishes- of the last few seasons is the tiny black Chantilly lace which edges the stock of white lace that tops off a magnificent dress of black Chantilly. The yoke Is of black Irish crochet, as are the shaped emplecements which form the lower edge. The dress Is superb for afternoon receptions, for the theatre and many other occasions.

IN BLACK VELVET. ft dress which somehow suggests this oqe, though, it is done lit richest black velvet, la festooned with superb black Arabian lace and graduated eyelets done in black silk. HAND EMBROIDERED. Speaking Sf velvet, there's a suporb princess-dress In deep, brilliant blue. The corsage is finished with elbow draperies and a berthe, which has stole ends, of rare lace.

The dress 11 em broidered in silk of the self color In a branching floral design, and at sight of it one cannot but think Just how charming It would be for some nimble fingered maiden to embroider one lor ber mamma. Of course, though, many women make It a point of honor to have such wort done by skilled needlewomen, who need the work that they may IaACE COMBININOa A chartnlnir dress of mauve chiffon la Inset with Valendnnes motifs, while anel effects are given by rqavs of boule ace.

One waist made of meteor shows alternating rows of baby Irish crochet and band embroidery upon the mate rial. (This embroidery Is done In the color of the waist, by the way.

The Princess Louise was one' of the most beautiful girls In the reigning houses of Europe when at the age of seventeen she was married: to Prince Philip, grandson of Louis Philippe.

Queen Marie could do nothing for her. Leopold refused to interfere. The princess finally threatened to go before the Belgian chambers unless a family counsel was called.

Aided Prinoaaa to Escape. Count Mattachich never gave up his purpose of securing the release of the princess, and the opportunity came in August of last year. She was then confined in a private madhouse at Bad Elster, in.
