WOMEN,S NOSES,
rho Arrangement OF Hair and BOnneti
Should Depend on Nasal COnilguration.
Before deciding as to the arrange
nent of the hair, the nose should be
interrogated. Ii that feature

describes as "cogitative"-i. e., long
and curved inward to the point-the
har should be somewhat pronounced
n its arrangement 1t should be
rather massive, or else the large nose
will, by force of contrast, make the
head look mcager. If the nose be
Greek, an approach, carefully guarded
from being too realistic to the classic
Knot, may be ventured upon. The va
rieties of the Anglo-SaxOn nose, some
of them quite childish in their want OF
decision and firmness of outline, are
too numerous to be specially com
ment1d upon, but should be treated
variously, according as they approach
the aquiline, the Greek or the snub
varieties. This last requires rather
coqucttish arrangement of the hair.
Madonna bands assort badly with
snub nose. So docs the Venetian Golf

among our aesthetic phalanx for some
Years. A little head summing over
with curls" best suits the snub Tip

women who perforce wear turned-up
noses VII carefully abstain from fol-
lowing the height and depth of fash
onablc co ll'ures, but remain faithful
to the quasi simplicity that goes so well
with the infantile formation OF their
noses.
The silly young women who have of
late gone about the world with the.I
heals cropped as close as those of boys
viii now regret the rashncss that robbed
them of their locks. For the cato
an is coming again. The hair is to
Je worn curled in front, then simply
brushed back to the nape Of the neck,
where it i; to be tied with ribbonmatch-
ing the trimming on the dress; hanging
iown the back in short curls for evening
wear, but arranged in thick plat for
the work-a-day hours. 1t is q style
that has its advantages, more especial.
Iy as displaying to good effect plait
of FURNISHED chestnut hair, which the
present mode. with its tight little basket
plaits rather enviously conceals. But
the catogan needs very special neat
ness to commend it, and if again adopt
vi here as it now is in Paris, it will be
well for its patrons to bear in mind
that when ruflled or disarranged, the
lueue will lose all resemblance to
the exquisitely neat little appendage of
the name as worn by our ancestors.
1t will have its effect upon the shape
of the fashionable bonnet if it becomes
.cneral. and will necessitate lower
NO of the crown at the back. This
portion of the popular headgear has
hecome smaller and smaller; while in
mats, on the contrary, there is some
times an enormous preponderance OF
crown oyer brim. In the shape known
rs the Tam o'Shanter this is notably
the case, and there was never, perhaps
in the whole history of headgear,a form
that more readily lends itself to the ri
liculous than this when seen upon any
save the youngest and freshest offaccs
A middlc-aged woman, with hard-set
color in her checks, who should be sc
utterly blind to the fitness oI
things (and there have beer
,uch instances) as to don
Tom o'Shanter, is one OF thoSt
phenomena which make one desire thu
'rrvival of sumptuary laws. If the styl,

na great degree upon the shape OF tn
iosc, that of the bonnet or hat should

very thin variety of the nasal organ
inclined to redness along tho ridge
which looks sharp enough to carv
with, that requires extremely delicat
treatment in the matter. of coiflilre
rhe effect of the nose itself is painful
meager, and this must be counteracte'
by Il sort of amplitude in the arrange
ment of the locks and in the trimming
of the bonnet. But then, on the othc
hand, these must not be too ample, o
they VIII produce contrast so eviden
as to be practically reproach to til
nose for its thinness. The other eS
tremc of a very fleshy nose demands
certain severity in the bonnet; but th
outlines of the latter must not be to
rigid. else they will throw into disagree
able prominence the inclination of til
nose toward spreading and width. S

color, it is another matter. 1t is on
of the most difficult tasks of the clevC
