spic1ous part IN the toilets AZ fhel
wedding Russian and Arabian Izces
were used more than auy ether: they
are OF that heavy cord lace. made in
heroic designs and colored 20 light
brown.
Mrs Herman Oeirichs wore an en-
tire gown Of this. unreiIeved by color
The high lights were given By dia-I
monds galore
It takes the purse OF an OeIrichs.
Of course. to pay for an entire gown
Of such lace. but a less filed purse
can get hold of lovely limitations OF
this lace and few genuine small
pieces Of t.
The new satin foulards also had an
excellent showing
Mrs. J. Lee Taller wore the loveliest
gown OF this in faint yellow. The
skirt was made with circular tHcks
running over the hips and the long
train had q very wide inlet insertion
OF yellow lace with deep hem below
IL The sleeves were the newest touch
I saw over there But why describe
them? Neither you nor I could make
them They were the trick Of some
master who must have felt in a good
mood.
The entire upper part was sun
burst that came into q nucleus of
shirring. And the lower part was put
into Tapped tucks done by hand. then
a pun of the lace and a wristband.
Her hat was a Gainsborough OF
white and yellow tulIe, with long
white plume at the side. She added

Women of all ages are trying TO
get rid of the pompadour, which has
fastened itself upon them with the
persistency that formerly distinguish
ed the fringe. No class or station has
been able to ignore it. The roll in
its many adaptations and develop
ments rests on the head of the grande
dame and the kitchen maid. 1t is worn
by actress and school girl. No age
has been able TO resist its attractions.
1t has been supposed to make the old
look young and the piebeian appear
aristocratic For five years 1t has
reigned without a rival. Now, how
ever there is a general tendency to
give it up. This is partly due TO the
fact that the Queen of England favors
bangs. 1t has been whispered that for
years the beautiful Princess of Wales
has been compelled to wear wig.
Whether this be true or not, it is a
fact that she has always chosen a
couture that prevented the outlines
of the hair as it grows on the fore
head from being seen. This is in
artistic. for nothing is prettier than
the natural border of hair about the
face. There is nothing attractive
about the fringe. which hides the
| forehead. and Americans are slow to
make ii fashionable again after their
long effort. to get rid of it.
The most stylish women in New
York and Paris are adopting the modi-
| fed chignon and the middle part. The
prevalence of styles that suggest the
gowns of our grandmothers makes
the new couture peculiarly harmoni-
Gus with the quaint conceits of dress
/ that viii prevail during the warm sea-
son. Young girls are fortunate in be-
ing able to look charming with any
new style of couture, but their moth
ers are having rather a trying or
1
right way to arrange their back hair.
The part offers few difficulties. 1t
is the loose knot or the heavy CHG
non that is the crucial test.
The hair should be loosely waved
and brought down rather low on the
4 forehead. Then il can be knotted on
/ the nape of the neck. This style is
to be recommended to her who has
a profile. but it is not good for the
pug-nosed sisterhood. Extremists hide
their ears. but no woman with COM
prehension OF the fact that her ears
are pretty win be guilty of such 8
foolish mistake. The old mode OF
dividing of the front hair, parting il
and twisting it upward before fasten
ing into the figure eight at the back
of the head is being revived Some
women look best with the hair ar
; ranged at the crown of the head-thai
is. with the back of the head covered
with braids or puffs. To this clas:
belong those who have not classica
. features.
1t must be remembered that the Golf
fure can make or mar the beauty o
woman. The contour of the fac
must be studied and styles must b
: modified TO suit the special style. |
| | is worth while. to experiment patientl,
before pinning ones faith TO a new
|, mode. Ii is a habit of French womel
, | ts. have a different couture for eacl
! costume. as they believe there is grea
charm in variety. but this is seldom
a satisfactory experiment. as it dc
stroys ones individuality.
With evening dress the shoulde
d curl is again introduced. II IS mos
e coouettish when it rests on a snow
: meek. but il is not TO be tried by an
; but beauty. Flowers are much wor
4 in the hair. anu here again the middle
: aged matron must exercise selfdenia
Flowers are likely to emphasize To
fact that ones complexion is not q
! Il might be. Roses and vithere
cheeks do not make q good eomhins
ition.
I Il is TO be hoped that the beaut,
2 seekers will do all in their power
hasten the passing of the pompadou
!. The roll has been conducive to man
. hideous and untidy e0ifures. and u
: sooner II disappears the better.
