Even il she feels forced to admit that the darling
OF her heart Is "an ugly ducR,' sul
she believes that If dressed properly, II
would immediately uso into higher
sphere of loyeliness than any OF ita kindred
could possibly ASSUME. It is in respect to thif
haIIucination, il halncinstion it be- that Nc pur-
pose to devote this article to the little ones and
the young misses.
STARTING, THEN, WITH THE grrLE or HAIR
DRESSING,
ne find the very easy and aensible fashion oi
wearing the hair braided down the back. becom-
ing somewhat passe. This is unfortunate, for il
WIS q neat coi7ure for schoolgirls, keeping the
hair neat, aud not occupying much time in dress-
ing. Young misses who have long light hail
still wear it crimped and floating for evening
pn1ties, when such arc given to the lit
tie folks. A fancy has arisen. how:
ever,-and, for those whose hair IL
dark, it is more bocoming,-of crimpine
tho hair, and then co,ling it in species ot
tosette at the sides, and occasionally on top ol
the head Another fancy is for three or i've
crimped rolls at the back OF tue head, loosely
adjusted like long puts, and not made over rats.
Still third where the hair is naturally curly, ia
TO carry it back aud tie it, at the nape OF the
neck, with bow Of Cardinal-red ribbon. allow
ing four or five thick curls to fall on the shoul-
ders. When the hair is light aod soft, and waves
in and Out Of curl with each motion, this ia q
particularly pretty wsy Of arranging it; aud a
black velvet bow 1s even to be preferred to the
deep red This style is not pretty for
dark hair, and should never be worn il the hair
Ia thin. as the curis, especially not Of the
Wary kind, must be thick aud heavy, and fully
as large around as An o1diuary-sized napkin
ring. 4 ou1ions comparison, perhaps, but IL
more nearly approaches the correct size than
ANYTHING else we can think of. The little ones
wear fossy curls and crimps in light hair while,
in dark hair, tho waves arc made larger. and oc-
castonally the hair is rolled under =. the neck.
The single braid will still be retained to great
extent for the petite brunettes.
