PARIS FASHION NOTES.
[FROM OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT. 19AREL, RAMSAY]
PARIS, September 1st. Deauville, as the season draws to its close, is remarkably gay and frivolous this year. Perhaps 3. Cornuché's new hath house, built like a Pompeian villa with its files of columns, its inner court. its pools and jets of fresh water, and its beries of coiffeurs, pedicures, and other ministering mortals has heightened every- one's appreciation of that rare and rest- ful quality – frivolity, and has brought out the quaintest manifestations of it, such as making up the twe siles of the face in different ediour, or gilding the eyebrows, wearing radishes and carrots on ene's hat
by way of trimming, and discarding stockings but wearing a black patch it the forehead.
Male frivolity takes a sherent form, and the baccara tables in the high class plays are crowded, now that the season is well under way. The big players, are small enough in amber to be remarked everywhere. There is a combine, known
the firecks who play together : against the bank. Early in the season they enjoyed a phenominal run of luck. but lately they have been loosing heavily and the greni winner of the season bas been the automobile manufacturer, M. Citroen, who, it is reported has filtern million frases in the course of the With this he has bought the Vilin Abbaye at Beauville,
Mine. one of Paquin former villas. Other players noted in the big games are James Hen nessy, Jean Patou, the couturier, Spinazi and
**the Greeks." Yvonne Printen the famous comedienne, is the first ami only woman to enter the sacred cinets where the big playing goes 23. Accunapanied by her husband. Sascha Gustry she spent a half hour there and the automobile ummufacturer win two tremendous banks, probably of about two million franes each, for it was the last big game of the senson anh vyergome was playing high.

Fashicas seen at Deuville vary from the extremely simple to the post fanciful. For instance, the newest thing for even- ing is to powder the hair blue. A num ber of women have done it but the signal example is Madame Fanny Heldy (the famous oprea star), who bas eyes the cadour of a curadower; the other night she appeared

The fashion of making up different sections of the face in different colours has been mut. discussed and has been attributed to different originators.

lady, coming to Deauville without having made a reservation in the Hotel Normandie, where she wished to stay. took a top floor room with inadequate Eghting and thus, by mistake, used her violet powder on one side of the face and her old ivory powder on the other, and did not percieve what she had done till she was seated facing one of the mirrors in the middle of the dining room. Then having the real sang froid, not to mention savoir faire, she merely smiled and "made believe that she had done it on purpose. Whatever the origin of the fly it has taken hold, and each one varies ber colouring according to her fancy. One lady achieved a startling effect by shad ing her face from white on the forehead to a lively orange at the point of the chin- another makes her forehead pale green. the upper curve of her cheeks orange, the lower plane of the cheeks mauve, and her chin and nose white.
