yoke of ochre guipure and finish just be-
low the elbow with full ruching of ochre
ucusseline de sole. The stock collar is Of
guipure lined with wood colored taffeta
and there is dainty jabot cravat of real
point lace, which may be omitted with the
zouave jacket.
With so decided a suggestion OF Louis
XIV style about the costume, the large pic
tCre hat in Louis XIV effect forms a be-
coming finish. 1t is of black horsehair
braid. and the wide brim is edged with
black velvet ribbon, while graceful wired
loops and bows OF narrow black velvet rib
bon are posed under the =. htly raised
side. The same loops and bows are gem
erously mingled among the rich foliage Of
the huge La France roses. which decorate
the crown. Streamers of black velvet rib
bon may be brought forward and tied under
tie chin.
The advent OF the new fall millinery will
bring the establishment OF the new hair
dress. The pompadour has already greatly
diminished. and instead OF the stiff rolls
OF hair, the eye will be gratifed with the
graceful coisfures consisting of curls. wavy
loops, and ringets. A characteristic ham
dress by Raoul is here exemplifed. 1t re-
quires short, but heavy hair, and where
nature has not provided the necessary I'M
dulations. the curling tongs are permitted
TO supply them. The wavy tresses are
caught at the back Of the head and ar
ranged in soft. becoming puffs. Instead Of
