A Pretty Hat.

The hat is of pink mohair straw. a
very fashionable material which gives
an effect like satin. So rich does it
look that it is being used even now for
evening hats. The huted brim is lined
with tucked pale chiffon. band is
placed on the left side little to the
front so that it tits the hat. The trim
ming consists of a wreath of pink
roses of different shades. At the back
there is a huge, dropping bow of black
velvet. The hat itself, with the tucked
chiffon lining already placed on it, cost

the rest. So you see for what a little
sum a really pretty hat may be OBJ
tanned.
Beautiful picture hats are shown of
white leghorn with wired edges, SO
that they can be bent into any shape
desired. They are trimmed with soft,
crushed louisine ribbon. One especial

wANTED-A COMPLEXION.

The latest cure for a thick or spotty
complexion is to wash it with parsley
water. It is done in this way: You
must take half pint of rainwater and
soak in it q large bunch of parsley, let
ting 1t remain in the water all night.
IN the morning when you dress Won
must rub the face well with a dry cloth.
then dip your sponge in the parsley
water and pass the damp sponge over
your face, leaving it on without drying
it. You must do this three times daily,
and at the end of fortnight you viii
be surprised to see that there are no
more spots or roughness on your face.
