Flowers and Pearls
 for Young Heads.

In sharp contrast to the blazing tiaras, coronets nnd crowns worn by young matrons and dowagers at the opera are the head or naments affected by debutants. These young women have elected to appear with their cultures surmounted by wreaths of flowers interwned with strings of pearls. The effect is much more youthful and Is prettier than could be secured with diamond ornaments, and the new fad affords just enough of a change from the wreath of simple blossoms and leaves which has been i'm vogue for sometime, to make it we'll worth copying
 Some of the younger set duplicate the ornaments for the neck of their ball and din ner gowns, making the wreath entirely sur. round their shoulders and end In large bunch of flowers at the left side or continue on down almost the hem of the skirt fin a graceful trailing vine. This is decidedly English in Idea and fashion. Nearly every young girl who enjoys season in London possesses quantities of those huny tuls frocks which are considered the thing for her by English mothers, and in order to give variety and some distinction to otherwise rather nondescript costumes, she resorts to decorations of her fayorite flowers. Tulips orchids gardenias and roses among the larger lowers are liked best, while almost any of tbe thy buds and blossoms look well with their natural leaves. The pearls may be omitted If the long vihe of flowers Is used, though the head ornament may gleam with their pure white drops.

 Dame Fashion has once more donned her thinking cap for busy times, and is already revealing many smart costume for early spring Representatives of the leading houses are eagerly feasting their eyes upon what Is to be worn and carefully selectlsg the models for the advanced spring styles. Par ticularly Tor those fortunate mortals who rusn on to sunny climes, indulging In all Kinds Of social dissipation, will the accom- panying suggestions be source of welcome information.

These advanced heralds of a still distant sea son, however, show little that Is novel as to color or design. Middle tones that will he desirable, whichever way the wind of fashion blows, and patterns that are neither one thing nor the other, so far as distinct styles are concerned, prevail. Of course In every woman's wardrobe there Is at least one tailor made gown. A smart little, yet severe " plain, taior-made gown for practical use IS made or covert cloth of a slightly greenish cast, dependent solely upon the perfection of nt and finish for Its cachet The coat is long, with pleats back and front and tits the Angure with the extreme stralgbt-front effect The skirt Is fashioned with pleated gores, and finished with a stitched hem

The Eton iaeket fits snugly with chasuble collar over tbe shoulders, and sleeve showing modified wrist pun caught Into trimmed cufr The skirt has yoke which Is continued in "a sb straps back and front, these being elabo- rately trimmed with the brown and god braids. The fitting is cleverly effected by means of tiny tucks over the hips and a simple velvet binding finishes the hem.
