very human and feminine interest in mat
tiers of clothes and fashion. The girls that
swarm like butterflies on the college cam
pus are up to the very latest date in the
matter of frocks and frills, and, taking
pretty advantage of their youth, they all
wear their hair low. The front hair, for
morning or evening academic frivolities, is
pompadOured deliberately. and the full roll
over the brow is softly waved. The length
of hair is drawn over a cushion, and I'M

you tie this hair with a broad satin rib
bon at the nape of the neck, and thence
let it flow. Some girls whose hair is a lit
tie too long and straight for this colonial

Cream White Pongee.
In the color of their graduation and
promenade concert gowns the girls prefer
white or rich ivory cream, mastic, cham
payne yellow and mushroom gray tones
and softly clinging batstes, silk mulls and
| silk nets. great deal of cream white
/ pOngee has been introduced on the college
greens along with cream batiste that is
| embroidered in tiny colored polka dots A
| pongee and a batiste that answer these de-
scriptions are shown in one of the pictures
| of seVenteen-year college girls The
deep cream batiste is picked out in tiny
blue dots, and with tucks and medalions
| of lace the gown is effectively decorated.
The creamy pongee boasts a pretty ar
rangement of narrow fril}s and a liberal
application of lace.
There is another picture of younger girls
one in an embroidered null, the other in
pretty white cotton point esprit garnished
with applications of tea -colored imitation
cluny lace. Gowns of this type require the
addition af very fine black hose with lace
ankles and black vanished leather colonial
ties in order to complete the costume All
the younger set of dancers carry bouquets
this summer to their dancing parties, while
women OF every age wear an amazing
amount of flowers in their hair and on
their gowns Artificial flowers serve of
course, in place of the real blossoms as
garnitures for frocks. but it is rather a
modish notion for a dancing or dining girl
| to wear a record breaking single blossom in
her hair instead of assuming that now
| commonplace American crown, the all
| around diamond tiara. This sweetly pretty
fancy is illustrated in the sketch of a white
net frock, vandyked in bands of Imitation
black chantilly lace. In the hair of the
wearer is mounted a huge white peony. and
a particularly stunning big Baltimore belle
rose, or a prodgious scarlet geranium or
an abnormally big begonia blossom are
some of the hair flowers that have a pecu-
llarly fashionable significance.
Boas and Bags.
The fluffy net boa with it's ankle-long
front streamers, must no longer fluff up
about your ears. if you would represent the
| latest phase of the most artistic style The
frills of the very properest sort of boa
| lie quite fiat out on the shoulders and form
full, flouncy, fairy cape or pelerine. and
| the ends are very stole like and greatly or
namented. Cape ruff1ed is the more tech
meal and truly descriptive name of these
newest shoulder ornaments, and some of
them consist of three very full frils spread
ing away from the neck with a broad lace
collar extending on top of them ALL
Added to the dozen and one STYLES Of
small bag and leather portemonnaies AL
ready in use we have one other This is a

Russian leather of glove-kid softness or of
boiled Flemish leather richly engraved. It's
top and corners and monogram, chain and
hook are of the handsomest chased Russian
copper gilt
Smart Sunshades.
Leather covered parasol handles are
among the gay trif1es of the summer hour
but more popular and appreciated are the
grass green gros-grain silk sunshades that
have excellently carved wood handles A

corn, calument, or any strictly American
