Fashions Dictates

A lot Of mousseline de sole is used
on hats. A becoming trimming is a
big bow of white mousseline de sole,
placed low on the hat on one side,
with the ends falling down on the hair
This is charming on a fur tOque and
is slightly newer than lace scarf.
A new way of arranging a lace veil
has lately sprung into vogue. The veil
is fashioned across the front of the hat
and falls down behind making frame
for the face. Half wells are also worn
reaching just below the nose.
The fad of wearing turnover collars
of starched linen with trimmed cos
fumes seems to have found great favor
lately. One sometimes sees these col
lars with the most elaborate street
gowns.
A pretty fashion in theatre bodices
a lace bodice with soft front Of
some color and a series of bows Of
black velvet and fancy buckles uniting
Ithe sides Of the lace jacket. Little coat
tails of the lace in the back add to the
effect
Among the pretty hair ornaments of
the season is a transparent black
jetted bird placed low down at the left
lside and falling from it is a bunch of
black ribbons streaming on to the bare
shoulder. These punches of ribbons
failing on the neck behind are very
common in the most chic Partisan
novelties.
Neat little toques of autumn foliage,
ivy leaves and thin berries, holly
leaves with their rich dark green, in
Isombre contrast to the glowing Grim
son berries, are very popular just now
for morning and afternoon visits.
The newest thing in buttons are
small ivory balls with gun-metal deco
ration. buttons composed of paste OF
lcolored stones mixed with black tulle,
and others composed of broadtail and

LADY Henry Responsible

Lady Henry Somerset is believed to
be responsible for the choice of Otta-

of the Worlds Woman's Christian
Temperance Union. When this so
ciety met in Canada five years ago,
Lady Henry was not able to attend the
meeting, and for this reason she was
particularly anxious to have the con-
vention held in Canada this time. In
vitations were received from England,
Switzerland. South Africa, Australia,
and the United States, but all were re-
fused in favor OF Ottawa. which had
sent no invitation. The Ottawa
