T THE COURIER - r FASHION NEW YORK, Nov. L For the In formal five o'clock tea. which. In Imi tation of our English cousins, we mod Ishes on this side of the water Ions ngo adopted as a part of our dnily routine, some especially designed nov elties In toilettes will be in favor this season. Not the least fascinating of these Is a purely French confection (and never was the term more fittingly employed) made of silks, fine linens and laces, and In style a cross between a stunning neglige and an exquisite house gown. It is, however, neither exactly one nor the other, but is made In two pieces a skirt and a waist, the latter slightly opened at the throat. One of the very daintiest models at Eugenie's, in West Forty-second street. Is of delicate pink silk and nar row white Valenciennes lace. The skirt has the silk for a foundation, and is much the shape of an elaborate petti coat, fitted about the hips, and with a superb flounce flaring from bf.low the knee. ( This flounce is made of a dozen or more rows of finely patterned lace, al ternating with tiny strips of tucked Persian lawn and finished with a wide lace edging. Ifr is attached to the skirt proper by means of fine embroidery beading. This Is sometimes used also to al ternate with the lace In forming the flounce, with excellent effect. The silk foundation has a pinked foot ruffle. The bodice is the prettiest Idea con ceivable. It is entirely of narrow lace, joined rcrpendlcularly by means of fine hem stitching. It blouses a little In front and has some slight fullness at the belt in the back. It is belted In by means of inch-wide ribbon which parses through embroidery beading. A three-Inch frill, lace edged, falls below the belt line and gives It a de cidedly chic finish. The collar is a perfectly fitted sail or, rather deep In the back, extending well to the shoulder, and pointed In front. This is trimmend with lace, as are the sleeves. The latter extend a little below the elbow, and are neither tight nor loose just comfortable, and very pretty. The entire waist, you see. Is of lace, and you can Imagine how charming it is over the pink silk slip of a lining which matches the skirt and serves to bring out the pattern. Or course, one must have slippers to match. With this plnk-and-white affair were the daintiest French-heeled pink slip pers Imaginable. The heels were of white velvet and the bow over the In step was of white velvet lined with pink. Another mode! which vied with this was of second sized baby ribbon in blue satin, alternating with the white lace insertion. The skirt showed even more work than the pink, being of soft white sat in with groups of pinch tucks travers ing it from top to bottom, with a deep accordion-plaited flounce underneath the outside one of lace and ribbon. The workmanship of these outside flounces which, in many Instances, can be removed to be laundered Is perfec tion, with not a stitch visible in the joining of lace and ribbon. Eugenie, who Is responsible for this innovation, certainly knows her art. The T)dice of this blue-and-white model is cut much like the other, and mr.y be worn over 'either a blue or white slip. The slippers to match are of white velvet or satin. Both are shown with blue heels and ornamented with blue bows, white lined. A pure white model, with a flounce of lace, embroidery, beading and tucks running perpendicularly and with a wide flare, is very effective. A breakfast gown Is also a novel idea brought recently by the same artist from Parts. It constats of a handsome petticoat ol A ALFONSO WANTS TO VISIT UNCLE SAM tBBBBBBBBBBBBSBBF ?

FREIGHT PAID ONE WAY. Ktng Alfonso of Spain has impressed a desire to visit the United States and, considering his imperious and not-to-be denied disposition, there is considerable likelihood of his gratifying his desire. His minis ters are now said to be earnestly considering the possibilities of such a visit. It is believed by them that a step of this nature would do much to renew the good relations of the two countries. !fewd& 1 Cycle Photographs Athletic rnotograpns Photographs of Babies .Photographs of Groups Exterior Views The Photographer, 129 South Eleventh Street YOtiR best Dress, IS SAFE J Dresden silk, with a wide 'lace ruffle. Over this falls a sort of delicate wrap per bloused to the waist and having a full skirt which falls open to show the petticoat. The waist is belted in with ribbons, and the throat is exposed just a trifle. The sleeves are short, and full at the bottom. The breakfast costume will probably meet with quite as much favor as the tea gown. Although it Is not so elabor ate. It nevertheless serves Its purpose admirably. At Eugenie's I also saw the newest embroidered shirt waists of kerchief linen and Persian laine. These show original designs entirely, and are wonderfuL The patterns for the most part Include figures (this Is the French idea), whereas last year flowers, fruit and foliage alone were used. The embroidery is all done In white, with Just a touch of black the eyes of a bird, the wings of a bee or the anten nae of a dragon-fly, for example. One of the most popular models has three dragon-flies among foliage. Another shows bees in the clover, and still another mermaids in coral. - This latter Is particularly effective, and almost covers the front of the waist. Street toilettes of the shirt waist or der are more varied than ever. It is well known that Eugenie Is the pioneer of this graceful fashion. Although oth ers have essayed to copy, none can compare in any respect with those turned out by this house. They are "made up in heavy materials, to be worn with furs, for the street, or in more delicate crepes and silk, adaptable to outer wraps. A novel Idea Is to have several silken linings of various colors with each handsome gown. A black crepe de chine, for example, made for a young bride, included petticoats of black, green, red and pale blue. Little collar and cuff sets in silk, and artistically embroidered, go with each -lining and make an effective finish. The bodice showed clover and leaves In silk embroidery. A new Idea In tucking, this season, Is the combination of sizes. For Instance, this black skirt showed pin tucks about an inch apart in the skirt, while .the flounce had very wide tucks about the top and bottom. " It Is a very pretty idea, and was lovely in a black chiffon skirt, made up with black thread-lace yoke and panels oer white taffeta. The bodice of this decollete costume showed only the large tucks, both In sleeve and front. The shirt-waist suits adapt them selves beautifully to evening toilettes. In fact, low-cut gowns show the fashion at its best, and set off the lines of the figure admirably. No other style exhibits the contour of the waist, bust and hips to such advantage.
