A RECENTLY designed dress of plain and figured taffeta combined will outlive Its summer voguo and prove useful long after the passing of summer time and the days of autumn, too. For tho tuulc Is destined to out live this season and In this model, from the La Vcrgne, tho gown is em bellished with several little now style features which, in addition to Its good and already popuUr design, make a strong appeal for favor. Among thoso one notices first the now treatment of tho sleeve. Diaph anous sleeves are tho order of tho day, but here Is a pretty modification of this fascinating style Tho upper part of the sleeve only Is of thin material. From the olbow down there Is a closo fitting Bleevo of taffeta finished with a ruffle extending over tho wrist and covering part of the hand. Tho uppor over the bodice. It Is caught up on tho shoulders under a loop of ribbon. Tho same ribbon appears in a bow at tho waist lino. It is a wide satin messallno in light blue. Tho cap is merely a foundation ot tho figured net over a fine wiro sup port, and Is bound with ribbon llko that used in the matinee. Ruffles of tho wldo val laco aro sowed to It and a bow of ribbon finishes it at tho back. There are many materials which may bo used for this pretty set. Printed voiles and lawns, swiss, shad ow laces, organdy and tho Hghe3t challles are all available. Laco and ribbon are the most appropriate of all decorations.

The girdle Is wrapped about tho figure and ties In a long hanging loop about eight Inches be low tho waist. The hat worn with thlB smart llttlo gown carries a hint of fall In its trim ming.

JULIA BOTTOMLEY. a role, however, demanded, first' of all, experience, anil In this tho princess was totally lacking. Sho found thnt Manuel was n careless, easy-going, almost lrrosponslblo youth, Irresoluto, but yet capable- of sudden and unforeseen obstinacy. Ho on his side saw In her n narrow-minded nuthorltntlvo young person, with Ideas which appenrod to him out-of-date and provincial a passion for house keeping and other domestic virtues which fell in neither with his tastes nor his requirements. Under these circumstances a quarrel was inevitable. Queen Amelln nnd tho Intimates of the two families aro doing their best to smooth away tho differences between tho young couplo, but they aro not optimistic. COPIES UNITED STATES King Christian of Denmark baa decided that tho newest of his numer ous residences shall bo furnished In American style In ovory detail. Tho style he has selected to copy is that of tho simple and efficient equipment of tho avorago American homo. Ho has long been an admirer of tho American arts and conveniences of home-making nnd ho has insisted that his newest house, which is situated on the Skaw, will lack none of them. Tho excuse for so many resi dences a3 King Christian has In so small a country as Denmark is htn fondness ot keeping In touch with his people, which, he mail. tains, ho can not do better than by living every where. Tho king maintains an elaborate cntourago, but It Is only for the en tertainment of visiting sovereigns and diplomats, As for hlmsolf ho lives In tho most simple manner. No ruler in Kuropo is more easily accessible. Recently on a visit to Naskov tho king was attracted by a dellclouB apple pie displayed in a shop window. Ho went Inside to buy a pleco and while there bought some cake for a small boy In tho shop. Later tho shop woman learned tho Identity of her royal customer and sho promptly hung out a sign announcing that her shop purveyed to the royal family of Denmark.

Both aro exquisites and it was tho Parisiau arbiter who went to India three yeara ago, on tho occasion of tho wedding of the eldest son of the Maharajah, to lead and anango the cotillion; for, nn an International chronicler on good taste declares, "no ballroom In France Is considered completo without tho presenro of M Fouqulercs," and tho Maharajah, who mado this occasion llko a dream of tho Arabian Nights, really had Paris transported to Kapur thala. It will not bo tho first visit of the Maharajah to this side of tho At lantic. He wan tho rago at Newport twenty years ago, when ho was tho guest of Mrs O H. P. Belmont and other powerful soelal leaders. Ho was unquestionably tho fashion. Polished, and with tho poise und cleverness of tho Ideal man of tho world, ho made a mo3t agreeable Impression indeed, some of tho women who recall tho graces of tho young Hindu potentate declaro ho was "simply fascinating." A Paris dispatch tma that al though tho repeated rumors of a dl vorco betwoon tho deposod King Man uol of Portugal and his German princess lack confirmation, friends of tho family In Paris say that their af fairs havo reached on ncuto stage.
