beautifully pon-seeti0nal and dra-
maticaliy attractive, in reaching
over the Rocky mountains to take
a candidate from the shore of the
Pacific sea. 3 1t would be scaptiVat-

that that candidate had spoken
wise, brave, and timely words on

natural strength of the democratic

undergo a process whereby they are
made to assume the charmed shade.

as to make harmonious whole.
The model in question was taken
from a packing-boX marked "cardi- |

foundation over which the lace had
been laid. A pretty device resorted
to in the trimming of many of the
hats and bonuets seen here consists
in weaving about the front a long
fluffy ostrich plume of cream color.
This, appearing above a rosy face,
is very effective and acts i'm modify

For fair young faces which have
not vet lost their freshness are pro-
vided the trying but fashionable
heliotrope shades. A pretty instance
of this was seen in TuscIn straw
