Invaluable Suggestions TO Women whs
Have Dimeuity with Head Gear.
The fashion of having strings on
large hats seems to be a regular rage.
THE silly fashion of having huge
streamers pendant from the back OF
a hat Is seen no more. but tiny
strings crossed just above a Greek
chignon and brought about the throat
and tied in a small bow under the
chin Is fashion so graceful and
pretty it deserves to last long time.
There isageneral idea among WON
en- that strings under the chin add
years to the appearance of their
wearer. Let me explain how this is.
according to the French idea. For
instance a woman buys herself a bon
net that is long at the sides, at times
reaching almost to her ear tops;
many ladies have the idea that be-
cause their faces are broad their bats
must be ditto; that the hats must
taper upward and outward from the
head in order TO make the face look
small by comparison; hat of this
sort always adds to the age, and
when strings are attached the aged
appearance of the wearer is again
increased.
A woman with a broad face should
wear a bonnet that sets ON the top of
her head-not resting on her ears
and brought in a curve back from
the forehead The hat should be mar
row and project over the forehead,
and not be too long at the back. A
Greek chignon should be avoided
the hair done in French twist that
adds to the length of the head-and
the hat perched ON the top of the
knot at the crown Of her head. With
this shaped hat narrow strings of nib !
bon velvet should be attached at the
back, both together, not at the sides
or rear corners of hat. They should
be crossed half way down on the
back Of the head, and brought about
the throat like band and ended by
a small bow just under the chin.
If the wearer has a pale complex
ion let her affect dark blue, or blue
Of the clear electric grayish shade.
Dark red adds color to the face,
though care should be taken that the
red has yellowish tinge instead of
4 green or blue reflection; the latter
will make the complexion look
iarker instead of being an improve
nent. For evening bonnets pale
,ream or blue should be worn or pink
,f deeper hue. Pale pink is one of
he most trying colors to a woman's
ace; it must be of shade to form a
harmony instead of a combination

Small hats that are rolled back al
