PARIS FASHION NOTES.
[FROM OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT, ISABEL KAMAAT.]
Pasis, August" 24th. Paris, that is the Paris of galaty and degance, the Faris of smartly-dressed. women and dandiñed men is a thing of the past This Paris ceased to exist from tho time the Grand Prix came and, by an inviolable law of tradition, compelled all those who aspire to be claassd under the heading of Society" to leave the gay capital forthwith. Paris is now a thing of empty streets and rows of houses with blink facades of shattered windows, whilst the people who once crowded every inch of these same streets and houses have throngul to mountain and seaside.
The most noted of all these is Deauville. This world-famed resort attracts thousands every year during the brief six weeks or so of its senson-hot, let it be understood. because of the exceptional facilities offered for bathing by its spendid beach or the bracing quality of its sea air, but because Deanville has the most maguificeat Casino in France, because its race-course, polo ground and tennis courts are all the must perfect specimens of their kind to be found collected together at one given spot, and because all the Smart Set world and his wife go to Deauville, not to mention for eign potentates. that one cau breathe the sure air as and gaze unreservedly on us they hand over large rolls of notes at the Tai carat tables or sin their morning aperitif at the potiniere-the open-air cafe behind the Cusine which is as famous as the Cafe le la Paix itself. These are the main reasons why Deauville attracts people from all parts of the world during August and September, and why the elegance and gaiety of Puris is to be found encompassed within the radius lying betweed Deauville plage and Deauville railway station at this time of the year.
Two royal visitors have already graced Deauville by their præence-the King of Spain and the Shah of Persia. Those on whom the responsibility of Deauville's success sits heavily are foudly hoping the the Prince of Wales, will eroas over in time for the big polo matches, at the same time as they are preparing for the arrival, already announced, of the King of the Belgians and the King of Roumania.

Clothes are of paramount importance to the women who spend their. Sumner at Deauville, the majority of whom seem tu pass their time changing from one set to another. For morning wear, organdie freeks in bright shades, foulards and white dresses of all kinds seem to be the rage, and the Potiniere is a gay sight indeed when 'the "green bour," the hour of the morning uperitif, comes road. The one dominating colour of all is yellow-not pale yellow of maize yellow or some other subdued tiut, of this particular colour, but bright unadal tomated sellow of the most vivid shudes known to the dyer. Organdie dresses in this colour are seen hy the hundreds, with big yellow picture-hats to match" The skirts of these are much have ever been, longer than they and they are also as full and billowing as though there wore a crinoline concealed neath their folds; they are cut very low with a boat shaped neck, and of sleeves there is not a trace. The sleeveless dress is a strange innovation to have asserted itself for day wear, seeing that women who adopt it are bound to reap ugly sun-burned arms as a result. However, this does not seem to have deterred them from wearing in the day-time muslin and organdie dresses far lower in eat than would have been permitted in a ball-room some years ago. One woman summed up the situation and evidently decided to make a virtue cut of necessity, by encouraging her face, neck the majority preferred the dainty high-heel- and arms to tan a deep walnut colour,ed shoe their Parision shoe-makers had made and adopting a style of dress and for them.
