The ways of ressing the hair are
very varied. Young ladies dress their
hair in light pufs and crimps on the
top, and tied in torsades, which fall in
the back of the neck. The hair is not
worn as much ever the face as formerly,
and there are not as many bangs to be
seen in the new coiffures. Several
methods of dressing the hair for differ
ent occasions are described as follows:
For young lady the hair may be dress
ed very high in the back of the neck.
1t is crimped in front and slightly puff
ed in the back. A band of narrow sat-
in ribbon is taken around the hair, with
,=ops in the center. Another style is
called the eoiHuro caprice. Ii consists
of small bandeau taken over the fore
head and up on the side. The back hair
is taken from the neck up to the top OF
the head, and arranged in heavy twists,
fastened by bands of satin. A coiffure
for evening wear is arranged by parting
the hair on the side and taking it across
on a waved bandeau. Then piece Of
hair is tied to the top of the head. The
remainder of the hair forms catogan
in the back. The piece on the top of
the head forms a large gordian knot
and loop. The back of the top of the
head is arranged in hair loops,
placed in variety of ways. Curls
and sprays fall down the back. An in.
door coitfure consists of two or three
crimped puffs on the back of the top of
the head. In the back is a torsade,
forming very loose loops, falling down
below the neck. In front of the putfs
on the top of the head the hair is taken
over the forehead in small curls. A
suitable way of dressing the hair for an
elderly lady is to part it on the side,
forming a flat bandeau in the middle of
the head. On one side is placed ruby
rose. A black lace veil is taken from
the top of the back hair down, and is
fastened low in the neck with rose.
Kid gloves of contrasting color
are chosen to wear with dresses Of gay
hues that would not look well repeated
in the gloves; with dresses of quiet col
ors the gloves are selected to match;
lavender and lilac gloves are restored to
favor for wearing with black toilettes;
French gray, ecru, and wood shades are
also worn with black costumes. The
most stylish gloves are very long wrist
ed, and are exceedingly plain, being
simply stitched without ornament; their
beauty depends upon their fine fit. Un-
dressed kid gloves are more fashionable
than at any previous season; they are
shown in wood, gray, and putty shades,
in cream y white, black, and dark brown;
those fastened by four or five buttons
are very popular. Kid gloves may be
had of seven different lengths; the
longest gloves have II buttons, and
cost S5; these reach almost to the ell
bow, and are meant for full-dre occs-
sions. For economy's sake ladies are
now contenting themselves with lamb
skin Gloves that look like kid, and are
