DIE TINS season.
A shadow veil comes in the very finest
black or white silk tulle, and is cut on
pattern SO skillfully manipulated that
when the veil is pinned iii place not n
single wrinkle crosses ones face. The
pattern takes somewhat the form of IL
gibbous moon, and the point striven
after is to avoid wrinkles in the veil
ing, for they seem to throw lines of age
into the face. The bottom edge of a
shadow veil has narrow selvage, and
then through the tulle run, an eighth
Of an inch apart, parallel lines Of black
thread that are very fine. Shadow wells
are sold with six, eight or ten of these
lines, some of them running up high
enough to east their shadow over the
mouth, while coquettish young ladies
wear those that have lines clear up to
the level of the eyes.
1t is almost On ineXplicable, but new
ertheless very important, fact that any
skin under well-lined shadow veil APP
pears to excellent advantage, and that
lnder this cobweb covering, whether
sought in black or white, defects of
the facial cuticle are not apparent to
.he naked eye.
With sailor hats two kinds of new
yelling are worn, the batiste veil, to
keep off sunburn and frecl1lcs, and the
fish net, to show off fresh young skin.
Every woman is going to the country
this summer with Mt least half dozen
batiste wells packed in her bag, because
they are the only absolutely sure shield
against the sun, and because they wash
so that it is never necessary to wear one
longer than two or three days at time.
They are pretty, too, as well as useful;
the majority cut in squares, and hav-
ing three little hemstitched tucks run
ming around three sides of the square.
while the fourth side gathers up with
fine white cotton cord, and is intended
to be tied about the crown of the hat.
This makes a veil very easy of adj
ly white, with the tucks in pale pink,
blue or green, the general effect is ex~
ceedingly gay. Naturally only the very
sheerest batiste is used, and in the
laundry these squares are merely
washed out and ironed without starch
ing or folding them. Fish net is the sin
gle fashionable dotted veil this season.
'Tis woven in very wide mesh, ex-
actly like castnet, and at every angle
in the weaving a tiny chenille dot is
placed. Black fish nets have gray dots,
brown nets have dark blue dots, and
red ones green dots, and one prime
recommendation of the weave is that
it is as strong as if woven of but
tonhole twist and positively refuses to
wrinkle.
All these innovations, however, have
not quite done away with that mainstay
of late years, the chiffon veil. 1t is the
only face protector women now buy by
the yard, for all other smart wells are
made up to pin right over ones hat.
The really admirable chiffon yelling is
not at present dotted, but figured in
pretty lace and chenille designs. For
instance, you can buy white chiffon
yelling, all over with minute green vel
vet sbamrocks, or gray chiffon en-
broidered along the edges with corn
chiffons, that is, on the material tiny
leaves, stars or circles of net or lace are
applied and the chiffon cut out under
meath.
But all these veilings are mere frivol-
tiles beside the net draperies meant for
the top-loftical, rose-smothered hats
women are wearing. veil for big
hat comes from a yard and n half to
two yards and quarter long. edged
with lace. put on straight or in frill,
and this is first drawn over hat and
face and tied in knot behind, little
to the right. Drawing the ends down, n
bow knot is formed and pinned to the
hair just back of the right ear, and
then the remaining length of net is
left 10 flow down on the shoulders. 1t
is permitted to add bright jewel-headed
pins in arranging these bows, and nets
of every bright color are used in this
way. Women who put Il deal of pro-
found thought in selecting their wells
usually choose these big ones to match
the straw of their hats, whether grass
green or poppy red.-hoston Globe.
