Full waving tresses drawn back in a
very simple knot that projects slightly
at the crown make up the coiffure most
affected. The hair is parted down the
middle when becoming-that is, whom
it is very thickly set above low and
broad Greek forehead. Otherwise it is
carried back and upward in a soft, wav-
ing roll, and the high forehead is sof-
tened by fringe not heavy enough to
be called a bang, or by a single curl
down the middle, with slighter curving
tresses on the sides. A jeweled hairpin,
Or one of filigree gold or silver in
small comb shape, or forming tiny
wreath, wing, pair of wings or a
fan, is thrust in the coil at the back.
The coronet front of the entire crown
Of jewels is worn by matrons. A cock
ade bow of light satin ribbon attached
to hairpin is very popular. either in
wing shape or as tiny chou with two
pointed ends springing from it.-Har-
