FOR LATE SPRING
AND EARLY SUMNER
CoIored HandlxeTchiefs With Flor
al DecOrationS-TwO Brace
lets Instead of One.

Colored headkerchiefs and whita
ones with colored borders are the onIv
correct thing for use with the shirt
waist suit this spring and summer
These come in softest mulls and lin
ems, in pale Iavenders, blues, pinks
yellows and even in reds. They are
scalloped. hemstitched and lace-edged
in fast colors.
All sorts of floral fancies are carried
out in these mouchoirs, but the pref
erence is for small flowers like for
get-me-nots, daisies and wild roses
These are embroidered in mercerized
floss, which looks like silk in the NAT
ural colors.
A parasol fad is the use of jet stud
ded handles Many of the exclusive
sunshades and carriage parasols in all
the blue. gray, pink and lavender
shades, as well as the red, green and
black ones, show these handles. Some
are curved in crooked effect others
straight, but they are a solid mass of
jet the size of seed pearls.
The bracelet is becoming more pop
ular, and it is predicted that two in
stead of one will be worn before the
summer wanes. At present the
bracelet is worn on the left arm.
Gold bracelets, which are merely ex-
aggerated rings, are to be seen. 9th
or birthday stones of the wearer. The
bangle bracelet is also to be seen with
chains of tiny gold hearts dangling
from it. The favorite armlet is a deli
cate silver filigreed affair, which is
made by the Indians. 1t is some
times set with q large turquoise. A
ring of the same material is worn
with this bracelet.
Necklaces of slender silver or gold

dangling from the end. The cross is
more popular than the heart, as it is
supposed to be a symbol of good luck.
A large turquoise is usually set in the
center of the heart of cross.
The peacock superstition Is evident
ly a thing of the past, for not only
girdles are to be seen made Of sec
tions of the feathers set in gold
frames, but pins of peacock feathers
also are worn. One seen recently was
the tip of a real feather set like those
in the belt in a medallion, with glass
over it, and worn for brooch. An
other peacock pin, which is worn to
faSten the collar, or in d pair to clasp
the turnover cuffs, is less than an inch
! long and an exact imitation of a
feather in gold and filigree.
Gold or silver cloth slippers for
evening wear, with flowers to match,
silver cloth ones had silver orchids
for ornaments. These slippers have
a double advantage, as they do not
need to match a gown and can be
worn so as to give the crush effect.
The new automobile wells are more
ornate than ever. An exclusive model
is of lavender chiffon, with an accor-
dion pleated ruff1e all about the edge
so that it falls from the hat about the
! neck 1t is kept In position about the
neck by silk elastic cord, which
hooks in the back. The frill looks
much like an Elizabethan ruff A
lavender bow where the veil is at
tached to the hat finishes it.
Another automobile veil is a COM
bination of eggshell blue chiffon and
black lace zig-zag insertion. The lat
ter is set in across that portion of the
veil which covers the eyes, and as the
lace is an openwork mesh, it enables
the wearer to see through it better
than through the chiffon. Tt also
fastens at the neck with a rubber
band which hooks at the back, but in
stead of a frill. there are long bow
knot ends of the chiffon which fall
nearly to the waist line. The veil is
! fastened on the hat in a wire hoop.
