The value of becoming hat cannot
be calculated. II is the article Of attire
more than any other which brings out
the good points or accentuates Jne pad
ones. not only of eyes and hair, but Of
complexion and shape Of the head.
Let the hat be suited to the wearer,
and all else is forgotten and forgiven.
The picture hat of the Gainsborough
suggests beauty of patrician type or the
brilliancy of a Reubens beauty. 1t is
suited rather to the large faced beauty
than to a woman with a small face,
who must not hide 1t under a bushel.
She can better wear a close-clinging
touue. The round-faced. plump beauty
may wear hat turing back from the
face; one following too closely the out
line of the face suggests the framing
of the full moon. The woman with the
large. round. and rather red face must
not crown it with a small hat suitable
for some fairy. A thin face needs soft
full framing to tone down all angles.
| A woman with a retrousse nose
should not wear a hat that is bent
down directly in the middle, as il
makes the nose look as though it were
Trying to meet the hat; neither should
she wear a hat that goes up sharply
in the front, as it looks as though il
was a continuation of the nose. A hat
that flares at the side is one that she
can wear; also a turban or toque, IL
lsoft folds. is most becoming.
For the woman with height, weight
and color. hats are a diffuclt question
She must be cautious in this matter t.
the point of cOwardice. Few flare.
and few feathers and flowers, excep
when the last are closely massed Will
much foliage, and always tending t,
dark tints. No fluttering chiffon
lstrings, or perky pOmpoms, for tn
modern Brunnhilde. She must b

A penthhea auertion.

Notlong before his death PIT. Bar
num,summoned his lawyer tosthe side
Of the couch where he was lying. 'r
am very much worried" he said,
about a certain matter, and I want to
consult you. Ny neighbor keeps pea
cocks. Suppose some Of them should
fly over into my yard, which they are
doing all the time, and lay some eggs
here. Would those eggs belong to me
or could my neighbor compel me to
give them upr'
The lawyer, having duly scatched his
head, answered: "Well, Mr.. Barnum,
/ must take time to look into this mat
ter But the best thing for you to do
would be to keep the eggs and let your
nelghbor sue for their possession. In
that way your rights would be deter
mined and we should have a very val
liable test case"
''Wen," said Mr.. Barnum, while you
are looking into the matter will you
find out how It would be IL the eggs
were laid by peahensT The lawyer
swore softly TO himself, but never
made any investigation.

TELEPHONE COMPANIES SUFFER
Both in Worse Shape Than They Have
Been for Years

The Dclmarvia and Delaware and At

The Delmarvia company did not suffer
as much as the old company. This Is
due TO the fact that most of It's equip
ment is new.

ing a renewal of favor. To make an
effective plume, take a white satin rib
bon and tie it smartly in two bows
without ends. Then stand three plumes
directly upright in the middle, point
ing three ways-one right up, the other
two east and west, respectively.
The girl who wears the low couture
when she doesn't tuck a rose back of
her ear. which. by the way, is becom-
ing a little passe, adopts this decora-
tion.
In the back at the top of the loop
she sets a velvet ribbon bow Above it
is another bow. and then a smaller
one, the bows gradually diminishing in
size TO the pompadour, where the tin
lest Of butterflies reposes right in the
back. This is called a Jacobs ladder
bow. and to be very good, the bows
must be fastened underneath with fiat
Invisible wire to hold them all in ship
shape.
, When there is a pompadour, and the
hair is dressed low. there is an awk-
ward place Just at the back of the pom
Dadour. To cover this little bows are
used, or the prettiest of gold buckles
fastened upon pins. There are all sorts
of pins for this bare spot, and the
iewelled flower leads in favor.
Bougoureaus chic Madonnas are in
society. They wear their hair very
low. without ornament of any kind
The hair is partly parted and partly
pulled. and is then drawn down in an
immense knot right below the nape oil
the neck. With this couture the Ma
donna wears a very low-cut gown, SC
exceedingly low that nothing but her
celestial appearance could excuse it. Il
is deeply rounding in the front and still
more deeply rounding in the back. and
there is no waist to speak of.

Latest Hair Ornaments

How are you dressing your hair
You must have. and right away, these
things:
A simple black velvet bow. very
wide with loops and ends, all wired and
pointing heavenward.
A snake of green gold, with red eyes.
10 twine around your topknot
A long gold chain, long enough to go
three times around the couture, and
end with a little ieweled flower. right
in the middle of your pompadour.
A narrow silver wire. tied in double
bow. to be stuck in anywhere.
A tOrtoise-shell comb. very wide. and
with the top cut irregularly and the
front set with little imitation tur-

A little iewelled butterfly upon a
spiral to dance forever before the eyes
OF your evening admirers.
Then. too, you must have some coro-
nation ornaments for the hair. It is
coronation year. and there will not be
another king for ever so long, and un-
less YOU take advantage of it now
may be forever. There are countless
coronation ornaments. but the prettiest
is the smallest of iewelled crowns.
They come in gold wire, bent crown
shaped, and set with mock gems. Do
not get them too gay or they will look
like the queen in the play. but just
modestly brilliant.

Across the Street

Across the street there lives a maid
a Jolly teasing little jade.
With wantOn hair and witching eyes
And yet. so staid and worldly wise
That, if she deigns to send glance
Across my way, it seems mere chance
And quick withdraws a swift retreat
Across the street.
Across the street 1 sit and look,
|Forgetful of my pipe and book;
see her shadow on the pane,
And build me castles in far Spain.
[ watch and wait with patience rare
|Till, just as l would quite despair,
She looks from out her window-seat
Across the street.
Across the street hath come a change;
The window hath a tenant strange,
WHO moves me to no rosy dreams;
Nv brains no more with castles teens
What use have l for fancies frail
The maid. as fit, romantic tale,
Hath moved. to make my joy complete
Across the street.
