1t was attended by Q great many

sixty. There were four hair buyers.
Each had his booth, whose front was
filed with cheap, gaudy calico cloths,
worth at the very outside twenty cents
q yard. In the booth we're two men,
one with pair of scissors, the other
with q yardstick. The former would
ask in an arrogant way, as il he did not
want hair and was doing . great favor if
he condescended to touch peasants hair:
"What do you want in exchange for
that% Fifteen yards" Fifteen !?
II I give you four, six, eight, thirteen
this figure was rarely exceeded), you
may think yourself luokyi" The offer
accepted, he cuts the hair. and the other
man measures the agreed number of

is refused as being worthless, the head
is too old. II takes about five years for

Fashion Rnncies.

Grebe trimmings are popular for
trimming costumes.
Chenille dotted net is much used for
wells. Bronze green and garnet arc
the favorite colors.
Outside garments show increased
length, many Of the new cloaks being
so long as to almost completely hide
the dress skirts beneath them.
AS il it were not enough to have
sumptuous cloak. Innings, little girls now
have their cloth princess dresses made
mp with Innings OF quilted satin.
Dress skirts. while made narrow and
clinging, appear more voluminous than
formerly because of the drapery that is
arranged in the way OF pannier and
tournure.
Handsome new qualities Of fur plush,
showing a long heavy pile, to be used
for cloak trimmings, pelerines and
n.ufrs, are us costly and elegant as fur
itself, but much less dHrable.
Silk kerchieis which can be worn on
the neck or made into charming peck
cts come in fine checks, with borders In
solid color. Satin kercbiefs are white
or OF bright color, with shaded stripes.
Flannel suits in bronze, navy blue
and green. silk or velvet collars and
cuffs to match being their only trimming,
will be much worn this winter on coca
sions requiring neatness rather than e!e'
/ gance OF costume.
Cretonne is frequently used for wall
hangings. This is favorite material
for bedrooms. Each room is dedicated
20 some particular color, and the Gre
tonne which covers the walls also covers
the furniture dressing table and win
dows and other hangings.
