DROOPING-BRIM HATS.
Roses Made of chiffon or Tulle Are
Used in Trimming Them.

The hats of the moment give the fem
mime head a s~phinx-like appearance owing
to the hood-like additions in the shape OF
trailing bows or dropping brims. Under the
wide rims that accompany the very pro-
nounced rear trimmings the faces of fash
ionable bellies assume something Of the in
deinable charm Of the old e~nchantress of
the desert. Straw depressions reach some
times almost to the neck. and the trailing
bows that merely cover the hair to full
length steamers falling almost to the
waist. Clasps and Jeweled pins are. of
course, required to secure the appendag es
in place. and the handsomer these are the
prouder is the woman that wears them.
Small flowers are generously used in edg-
ing hats. Petite roses made Of chiffon or
tulle are exquisitely dainty and may be had
in PIN. white or cream tints. When they are
used an effective facing to the brim Is Sc
cured with materials of the same shade laid
Chip hats are popular and are often with
out much trimming beyond a plume or
wing. Draped hats have many admirers,
and they certainly are effective about sharp
featured faces. A pretty model worn in tho
boulevard consisted Of white CHR with a
brim of black lined with white. It turned
up in the back. although quite fiat in front.
and was supplied about the crown with
folds of white silk. Encircling the silk was
a band of black velvet clasped in front by
a wide buckle of shaded pearl. Black and
white tulle trimmed the brim.
Handsome cabochons. clasps. buckles and
pins are prominent on all types of millinery.
They form large and glitterins underbrim
ornaments on the hower-huilt hats. holding
together the airy folds Of the lace and chif-
fon creations.

BEAUTY of CARRIAGE.
Many Women appear Unattrnctivo
Bccnuse of Their Improper Position.

Mere beauty of face does not avail a
woman much if she has a poor carriage. A
woman NAV have a face as perfect in Its
classic outlines as that of n Greek goddess.
her figure may be well proportioned. and
yet she may appear Tnattractive because
she does not carry herself we'll. Beauty OF
features and form weighed in the balance
against grace and carriage is always found
wanting.
a oman's gowns may be modelled after
the most elegant Worth creation; her cha
peak may come from the shop OF n Paris
milliner. and yet it may be a source Of
annoyance to her that she does not make as
smart an appearance as the governess of
her children. Why? Simply because she
does not stand correctly.
The minute she STAN lightly poised on
her feet. with knees straight. chest well
out. stomach Nat, shoulders back and the
body from the waist fitting ever SO slightly
onward. she has acquired 4 certain smart
ness of effect that no amount Of beauty nor
fine clothes could give.
A woman cannot stand correctly and look
slovenly. And yet how few women do stand
property
One must note with regret the settled
figures. for 1t Is the tendency OF the body
to fall back heavily TO the heels unless
there is some exercise 10 offset the action.
The sprinsy step soon becomes a thing
of the past. and walking, instead Of being
a Rhythmic falling forward, becomes a jerky
up-and-down movement.

Assistant, Chief Of Detectives Smith is
still investigating the shooting at Twenty

noon. So far he has failed to get any con-

Seven witnesses appeared at the -Four
Courts yesterday. Five of them stated
positively that Williams and Murphy were
not the men. and the other two are as
positive they were there. Sheriff. Bee OF

THE MODEL.

She had such little feet,
Who climbed each day the narrow wind
ing stair.
They could scarce bear her up the long.
steep way.
And her head dropped beneath its weight
of hair.
She had such little hands.
WHO worked so hard to win her share OF
bread:
Which being won but gave her strength to
wish
That she were lying dead.
She had such wistful eyes.
Wherein her lids hung heavy as IN sleep.
She scarce could lift them up to let the
tears
Shine through when she would weep.
She had so sad a mouth
That. made for love and starved Of its
sweet dover.
Dropped as n rose droops in the fire of noon.
A rose ~ungathered hour after hour.
Her spirit was so proud.
1 might not help her for the love 1 had.
Though all unloving. 1 had ached to SEQ
so young a thing not glad.
She lies so fast asleep
That through her dreams no call Of mine
she hears.
And had given all to win Deaths right
To comfort her OF tears.

the well-to-do bride to adopt. and il bids
fair to have quite a vogue. That every bride
possessed of any sentiment wishes to keep
her wedding gown in a state of preserva-

giant receptacle Is admirably suited to the
purpose for which 1t was designed. 1t is
