Some Pretty Designs in Tea Gowns
MONO th charming thing
V I ehown In th ehops (or tha
I delectation of tha horaa show
tha mora elaborate type hava
had a prominent place, and It
la aafa to eay that In no prevlnue season
hava wa had ao varied and beautiful an
xhlblt In thla Una.
For many aeasen past a few merchant
hava specialized In dainty offerings of
thla aort,, but now tha grade of negligees
haa Improved throughout tha entire trade.
Mora American women are buying and
wearing handsome and luxurious tea
rawna and boudoir gowne than ever bo- .
fore, and the women who cannot afford
tha coetly modala Insist upon greater daln
tlneaa and charm In negligee garmenta
than wait once the rule.
Of couree there la atlll an Immense aupply
ef tha cheap negligee garments, and some
of them are aggressively ugly, but even
In thla claaa the leaven la more noticeable
that It once waa and even among the very
cheapest of the klmonoa. bedside gowna,
etc. one may And thlnga that have a cer
tain piquancy and daintiness.
In one Broadway house which hrji a
reputation for attractive negligee there
la, for example, a line of neallgeea In outing
flannel priced at $1.88. That Bounds de
pressing, but the little gowns themselvea
are distinctly pretty In spite of their quite
obvious cheapness.
In tha Drat place the manufacturer haa
produced an outing flannel which', while
bo mora expensive than the materials
usually In color with the names. Is really I
attractive te color and design. On a ground
of narrow atrlpes, pink and white or lllao
and white, Is scattered a flower design
in the same coloring. That Is, loose pink
rosea are scattered over the pink and white
tripes, lavender flowera over the lllao
and white stripes. ,
The gown la quite loose and of modified
kimono type. Tha edges are all neatly
finished In machine buttonhole stUch of
pink or lavender and the fronts are caught
together- by ribbons tied In Uttla fluttering
bows.
For what the French call a saut de lit
thla extremely cheap model has Its merits,
and while there are few pretty thlnga so
cheap, there are many desirable gowna at
reasonable prices.
Nun'a veiling, albatross and other woollen
tuffs of similar weight are well liked for
aimple negligees, wearing well, cleansing

In eiderdown robes there la nothing new
but the handsome senana clothe, which
are as warm as eiderdown and very popu
lar for boudoir gowna. These materials are
somewhat expensive, but are offered In
beautiful colorings and are really very
handsome. Some of the new designa have

signers of negligees, and there are cropa
gowns of all sorts, from simple klmonoa to
the moat elaborate of tea gowns. " It la

From the same French maker was a tea
gown of black silk mouseellne with satin

A bold pink roae design was painted In a
border around the black over rob. '
Th striped materials, gaus and satin,
gauae and velvet, crepe and aatln, chiffon

Further down th avenue we aaw a tsa

motifs ef coarse filet dyed to match tha
satin, and embroidered heavily In blue and

letage line up almost to th baa of th
throat, was of cream aleoon, aa were tha
hugs wing sleeves, whose fullness was
- weighed down by heavy golden tassels.
And there was a gorgeous toa gown of
new rose .velvet, very light and supple,

the privileged few. but the ranks of th
few have evidently lncreseed amaslngly dur

A Few Sksrf Point..
Every married woman wondera how her
huaband managed to keep out of the poor
house before .he took posseaalon of his
pocket book.
Nothing annoys a man aa much aa
having his wife "fuss" over him, yet
when a woman ceasea to "fuaa over a
man it la because aha has ceaaed loving
him.
When a man tells that his wife allowa
him a latch key without an argument be

Almoet all of th famal Invalid be
