STILL FAITHFUL TO STUARTS?
Pretender of That Line to Britain's
Throne Is Now Prince Rupert
of Bavaria.
f There was once to be found. In Brit
ain, a little group of romantic senti
mentalists who remained faithful to
the Stuart line, and celebrated on Jan
uary I!0 a kind of Jacobite feast day.
A writer In the Living Age rememhers
seeing postage stamps bearing the like
ness of the "pretender," who happened
to he a princess of Bavaria. These
were nttached to the envelope y the
side of the officln! postage stamp, thus
constituting a source of nnnoynnce to
the serious-minded Victoria.
Since the death of bis mother. Maria
Theresa of Bavaria, a few weeks ago,
ex-Prince Rupert of Bavaria is now
the official Stuart pretender to the,
throne of Great Britain. The Muse of

If you would forget that there Is
anything In the world but joy, spend a
little time looking nt the party frocks
In which the summer girl will dnnce
some hours away. If these dance
frocks nourished In the dnytlme, bees
nnd butterflies might pursue them, for
they certainly borrow from flowers
their color and piquancy and sunshine
glimmers Jn their brocades and em
broideries. Evening gowns Indulge In
sumptuous nuiterlnls, In gold nnd sil
ver tissue, In rich embroideries and
twinkling sequins and all kinds of
shimmering things Including the new
shot taffetas. Finally they turn to
tulle and laces or sheer crepe. A world
of fine nnd fragile fabrics belongs to
them.
The two pfetty party frocks shown
here are of the simpler designs, one
of them In white nnd the other In
black wkh embroidery nnd brocade
sash In metnl and colored brocade. The
white frock has a slim undersllp of
embroidered satin, draped about the
nnkles and full draperies of fine net
ending lir points nbout the Jjpttom,
hang over It. A vestee of twinkling
sequins fills the V-shaped opening of
the bodice the net makes a filmy
drapery that falls from the shoulder.
For n lovely finishing touch a narrow
ribbon hangs In loops nnd ends from
the girdle.

Petticoat Substitute.
The long, slim suit and dress skirts
almost make the wearing of petticoats
an Impossibility. But we uiuy be Just

there are the long bloopers to take
their place. These bloomers or pan

colors and mny be hnd ankle length or
shorter and with or without ruffles.

to the rule, the designer having placed
a wish of ribbon about the crown, tied

Substitute for Furs.
The reported decision of clothlnj;
manufacturers, particularly specialty
houses, of going more Into leather-lined
or convertible overcoats for next fall
und winter finds nn echo In the worn
en's wear trade. According to a dress
goods representative the suggestion
that leather he substituted In some
cases for fur trimmings has met with
quite a little response. The price con
sideration Is not one that holds the Im
portant place for the change, even
though there Is u difference In favor
of the use of leather, but the novelty
of leather trimmings Is expected to be
u big factor.1
