Madame Francis looked as if she had just been turned out from the exclu sive little shop off the avenue which bears her name. Her dress looked like a misty winter day, frost-touched where it was embroidered in medallions of cut steel beading. There was a sugges tion of ice in it too-jade-green satin outlining a round throat and bottoms of short sleeyes. The sleeves were alit at the top. and caught only at intervals, giving brief glimpses of the arm beneath.

She pointed with a smile to a black and white garment, somewhat the worse for wear, lying stop her lug gage. But there was triumph In the smile. She offered these bits of informa tion concerning what Paris .will wear this fall: WHAT PARIS WILL WEAM. Fashionable material will be bro caded in contrasting colors and enor mous designs. Lines and figures must be perpen dicular and thin, even though achieved by corsets. Suit coats will be hip length, em broidered. without belts. Hosiery will remain fawn-colored and pearl gray; black will not be used. Shoes will be low, short-vamp. round-toed, made of brocade and brightly colored suede. "You never would believe," she continued, "that brocades could be made in such vividly contrasting colors and such bizarre designs. Trees, bells, animals-all are worked out in materials for street, afternoon and evening garments. And with them will be worn shoes contrasting in stead of harmonizing in 'colors. "No matter what Paris may lack in way of originality or charm of its garments, that city knows how to dress its feet. You could imagine noth ing more Intriguing than the hosiery at thin, fawn-colored silk with the transparent look, unless it should be suede boots of the same color. "Hats, also, are beautiful, and are mostly white. The medium size, with turn-back rim, are correct. Many are embroidered. I believe that embroid ering will be popular for everything next season as it was last. * "Paris likewise excels in choice of jewels. The city wears a string of pearls as if they didn't cost a penny and emeralds as if they were picked up in the streets. Those are the popular jewels." COURT RETURNS TO KING $1,600,000 IN SECURITIES LONDON, Aug. 1.-The cgourt of appeals has decided that $1,600,000 worth of securities held in England by King Ferdinand of Bulgaria when the world war began should be re turned to Ferdinand. The court overruled the decision of the lower court that the securities should be forfeited to the British gov ernment. The decision was based principally on the ground that the securities were pri ate prop t. and in no way affected the re w ios of Bulgaria. ergy and Pep Restored By thic Nerve Treatment Pref it. N. D.
