Seasonable Nodes in Lingerie

HE fine lingerie under-I
clothes of the season do j
not show any radical
change from the modes
which have for some time
been in evidence, but this
fact does not detract from their charm.
The lingerie outfit of underwear is
composed of corset covers, chemises,
drawers, little knee petticoats, long
petticoats and nightgowns.
These garments are,1 as a rule, made
of tine lawn "or nainsook ornamented,
with lace applied in ruffling or in inset
and applique*] designs, with Swiss em-
broidery, with all appropriate forms'
of handwork such as embroidery,
hemstitching, French knots, etc., and
with ribbon rosettes, bows and draw-
ing ribbons.
The surprising beauty of the fine
muslin embroideries this season has
l(d the makers of lingerie to use tin-
broidery trimmings more lavish 11 y
than ever before and the >upn nincy of
^ lace as underwear trimming is not so
pronounced as it was. In many cases,
a c u:promise is effected, embroidery
and lace I cing Introduced upon the
same garment. Especially is there a
tendency to introduce embroidery
beading in place of thr lace beading
upon lace-trimmed undergarments,
and the notion is a sensible one, be-

e lines shows in
,'hich displays its orna-
tucks, inset trimmings
v. etc., rather than in
and ruffles.
Corset covers arc not darted or
fitted close. They follow the simple
model popular of late seasons, with
closely drawn back and slightly
Moused front.
•Chemises have the simplest designs
in so far as cut goes. They may or
may not be finished with a ruffle at the
bottom. Some of the most elaborate
models come with a plain hem finish.
Drawers still follow full lines and
are, as a rule, edged with deep ruffles
headed with lace or insertion or by a
beading, through which a ribbon is
run, which ties in a bow at the side.
Skirts show a close fit over hips and a
great fulness in deep ruffles about the
feet.
Little skirts measuring in depth to
the knee lor wear under silk skirts or
to take the place of the chemise skirt
when a chemise is not worn almost in-
variably have a slightly flaring ruffle
finish, as a plain model catches at the
knee and a model with a very full ruf-
fle, by its bunehiness, interferes with
the graceful lines of the gown skirt.
Let us pass for a moment from the
enticements of summer lingerie to
the attractive linen gowns, of
which we shall sec many before the
close of the season. There is a dis-
tinct fancy for mixing rough and
smooth stuffs. For instance, some
rough hopsack-linens are trimmed
with pipings of plain silky linen in a
contrasting shade. I saw a fawn hop-
sack trimmed with an almost white
soft linen; the bodice was further
adorned with red embroidery and
guipure, and was surmounted by a
red. coarse straw sailor hat.
Most effective was an orange
linen a real, bright flame shade Mm
skirt trimmed up to the knees with
bands of black and white coars cm-
broidery. which also outlined the
pelerine-bolero bodice; ujider this
was worn a blouse of lace, finished
with an orange leather waistband.
The linen coat of short or three-
quarter lengths lends itself to a va-
riety of elaborations. Very stuart
motor and carriage coats arc being
made in linens, cut after the old
guard's pattern, and simply strapped.
Needless to say, to be successful,
they must be extremely well cut.
Then there are some chic linen coats
made with basques, trimmed with
pearl buttons, which lay claim to
some consideration.
A great many mauve and purple
linens are worn, some of them mix *d
with very good effect. Pale green and
grass lawn shades, the coats lined
with contrasting colors, also forir
charming costun.es.

V-WONDERFUL PLACE

Argentine Republic.

[Special Buenos Ayres Letter ]
O N I- t<1 the ^nost important com-
mercial centers of South Amer-
ica is Huenos .Ayres, the e^iitnl
)t the Argentine Uepublic, which has
( population of nearly 1,000,000 and is
connected with Europe and New York
jy several direct lines of steamships.
Che city of Hueuos Ayres is situated
in the right bank of the month of the
•-.a Plata river, which at this point is
(bout 70 miles in width. Until a few
'ears ago ocean liners were compelled
o anchor 20 miles outside of the port,
jwing to ilie shallowness of the river
>ed, and passengers and freight had
,o be transferred to small river steam-
:rs; but now the city has a niagnifi-
:ent harbor with modern docks and the
argest ships can discharge passengers
md cargoes in close proximity to the
eading hotels and railway stations.
45iit Huenos Ayres is of importance not
July on account of its foreign com-
merce, but also because it is the ter-
ninus of the La Plata Iliver Navigation
'ompany, which likewise controls traf-
ic on the Parana and Uruguay rivers
<s far north and northwest as Para-
<uaj and Brazil. Moreover, a network
Df railroads connects the capital with
.•very province of the republic.
The European and American ele-
ment has grown quite influential dur-
ing the past two decades and has con-
tributed not a little to the development
of the country. The Italians constitute
the largest part of the foreign popula-
t ion, closely followed by Spaniards and
Frenchmen. The English, German and
American colonies are far less impor-
tant as far as numbers are concerned,
rational development of the country.
Moreover, iu 1SU5, the Argentine Ke-
publle was forced into a disastrous
war with Paraguay, which was not
definitely concluded until 1870, when
the allied governments of Argentine,
Brazil and Uruguay forced their
plucky enemy to submit to humiliating
terms of peace.
In the following decade the country
made wonderful progress, which was
impeded only occasionally by presi-
dential revolutions, tint under the
maladministration of President
Juarez Celman, from 1SSG to lS'.JO, it
was brought to the \t rgc of ruin, froiu
the consequence of which it is suffer-
ing unto this day; and only the great
resources of the republic, developed
largely by the industry of immigrants
from Europe, and the honest admin-
istration of public affairs h\ President
Pelligrini, Saenz-l'cna and Koca have
saved it from absolute decay. Hut in
spite of these obstacles the city of
Huenos Ayres has grown steadily iu
wealth and importance.
Like most South American cities,
Huenos Ayres is laid out on the checker
board plan. Most of the houses arc
one or two story structures with nar-
row, unattractive fronts, but of great
depth and elaborately decorated on
the inside. The rooms arc usually ar-
ranged to open upon a "patio, a
square court ornamented with shrub-
bery, potted plants and fountains.
Large mansions sometimes have two
or three of these courts, one or t wo for
the family and a third for the higher
household officials. In the center of
the city, however, this ancient style of
architecture, which provides an
abundance of light and air, has been
supplanted by the modern interna-
tional residence. In all other respects
Huenos Ayres is a metropolitan city,
h has a number of really fine public
buildings, club houses, banks and
monuments and a score or more of
small parks and squares. The most
famous of the latter is the Plaza do
Mayo, a beautiful park ornamented
with superb monuments and sur-
rounded by some of the most imposing
edifices in the world. On one side, on

but they have done much more than
the others towards building up the I
commerce, charities and schools of the
?ity.
Although the republic and thecapi- j
tal have suffered much from wars, rev- j
olutions and panics < f every kind, tin y i
have somehow managed to conquer all j
these obstacles, and in spile (if tem-
porary difficulties and the present
wrangle with Chili over the frontier
question it is safe to assume that
Huenos Ayres will grow steadily in
importance. If nothing but its in-
crease in population were considered
its growth might be considered one
of the wonders of the age. In 1SS2 the
city had 300,000 inhabitants; now it
lias a population of 1,000,000—an in-
crease of nearly 700,000 in 20 years.
This rapid growth of the city becomes
still* more interesting when one takes
a brief survey of its past history.

ered the Rio de la Plata —the Silver

\ edly smart. Itaffla is one of
\p5Swll tlie fashionable straws,
but their name is legion.
The advent of the coquet-
^ tish bonnet is the sensation
>f the day; young and old will wear it.
n> it is the most becoming of headgear.
Mixed straws and straws of two colors
i,re much seen; the turban, bolero.nnd
French sailor shapes are the favorites
for evervdav wear. The tulle hats are
una! test of the smart. Flat plateaux
of ft raw are very elegant, a no are seen
in burnt straw, trimmed with clumps
of cherries and knots of black ribbon
,-plvet. or in black satin straw with
wreaths of creamy roses and foliage.
.Let ,m> cxamplif.V with a description
rr the hats shown in the illustration.
I„ (,„e we have a .most charming hat.
I n,irely original in design and made
j„ ;l novel and very becoming shape,
with curving brim of coarse burnt
,trnw and a center of cream colored
straw left perfectly flat, so ti at the
hatMias the appearance of being made
without any kind of a crown. 'I he
brim is turned up sharply off the hair
„t the back and fastened with an owl's
he:;d and feather mount, the effect of
which is cxc « dingly quaint and pretty.
\nother shows a graceful picture
hat in tine black chip. This hat is made
in a shovel-shape lifted off the hair on
the left side by many fo'.ds of soft
black tul'.f. The trimming is com
pleted by two long pltlines of black
ostrich feathers drooping over the
brim and resting "n the hair at the
back. This would make an Ideal hat
for a bridesmaid.
A third Is made in one of the newest
chapes foi ihe summer season with u
brim which curves down over the face
in front. It is carried out in ecru chip
with, a wide band of dark chestnut-
brown velvet arranged around the
high crown and finished on one side1
with velvet loops-. On the opposite side
of thg hat chestnut colored ostrich
tips are arranged very picturesquely.
A fourth sketch has for its subject a
very small toque made in one of those
glorified Amazon shapes which are so
universally becoming. This toque is
carried out in a pale turquoise blue
satin straw, eaeji plait being separate-
ly niched into a number of plaited
frills, so that the whole efTeet is sin-
gularly soft and pretty. This toque
has for sole trimming a large cluster
of golden buttercups arranged on the
left side and contrasting most effect-
ively with the pale turquoise blue of
the straw.
The ljrautiful hat shown in a fifth
illustration has a crown of soft cream,
crinoline finished, with a bow at the
back and a wide brim of fancy straw,
very quaintly plaited all the way
round. The trimming of this hat i.s
arranged entirely under the brim
where a few folds of black tulle are
used to support three small white os
trich tips, which fall upon the hair
and one long white ostrich feathei
which curves away under the brim at
the back. ELLEN OSMONDE

Caboto and Diego Garcia had sailed up
the Parana and Uruguay rivers, in 15:27,
Emperor Charles Y. dispatched, in the
vear 1535, the Spanish commander Pe-
dro Mendoza with a strong expedition
to colonize the country along the banks
of these mighty rivers. Shortly after
his arrival Mendoza founded a city on
the right shore of tlic La Plata which
he called Buenos Ayres. After centu-
ries of oppression and spoliation by
the Spaniards and after many san-
guinary struggles the Spanish viceroy
of the La Plata provinces was deposed
and a provisional government formed.

.Next to the parks, the 1 arbor and
stately schools and colleges, the most
interesting point iu Huenos Ayres is
the magnificent old cemetery, the
Kecoleta. From the Hecoleta a boule-
vard leads to Palermo, a dainty spot
on the river, and to the Parque de
Febrero with its wonderful avenue
of palms, the finest thing of its kind
in the world. Now here is the elegance
of South American life accentuated as
forcibly as la this charming locality.
On the so-called "Corso days" and on
Sundays, blooded teams, five and six
abreast, crowd I he boulevard drive-
way and excite the admiration of
thousands of pedestrians. The great
park is connected with the city by u
multitude of trolley lines and a rail-
way. The latter also runs to the race
track, to Hclgrano, a suburb of bcauti*
ful villas, and to Tigre, a partially
wooded island in the Parana river.
What Palermo and the race course
are to driving and racing Tigre is to
acquatic s.ports, of which the natives
seem to be very fond.
General social life does not differ
much from that of large cities iu
other lands, and there are but few
original street types to attract the
traveler's attention. Among the lat-
ter are the "changadors" husky fel-
lows to be seen on every street corner,
waiting for odd jobs a* messengers,
rug beaters or anything else that may
turn up. Another striking character
j is the milk man who comes to town
bright and early in the morning,
mounted on a patient piece of horse*
] flesh, carrying the lacteal fluid in tin
i cans enclosed in ox hiil.es. A few years
! ago a s1.ill more interesting sight de-
| lighted tourists. In the morning the
milkman drove his cows through the
streets and delivered the milk direct
from the animal to the consumer, thui
doing away with the necessity of a
milk inspection department. But
these "good old days" are almost over.
The rapid progress in the development
of the city is supplanting archaic cus-
toms and manners and but a few days
hence and Buenos Ayres will in ali
respects follow the methodical and
uninteresting routine which char-
acterizes life in metropolitan centeri
the world over. KARL OKNJK E.
