The way to look genuine is to
think out your coiffure, to select the

to decide that a certain parting oil
puff or twist is pretty and so adorn
your head without regard to its har.

For the first time in this generation
It is the fashion to study the contour
of the head and modelling of the face
and to adapt the hairdressing to bring
out artistic effects. So women with
individually of mind or beauty are
originating styles of coiffures, or imitat-
ing those of early periods that suit their
outline.
Usually the effects striven for are sim
pie, and almost invariably paintable-
that is, with an artistic expression that
would be beautiful in a picture forever,
regardless of modes. The affectedly
picturesque is still as bad form as it has
been for several years past, when there
was only one smart conventional style
of hairdressing for women of all types
and ages.
You may look like Burne-Jones pic
ture, if you want your hair to be in a
fluffy knot; but you must look exactly
like one, not like poor copy made by
an amateur student. You may even have
curls floating down from chignon.

BACK TO THE CHEMTSE.
Paris Has at Last Abandoned the
Corset-Cover in It's
Favor.

Paris has dropped the corset cover
as abruptly as the nondescript little gar
ment was taken up and not a single
trousseau of the hundreds made for
wealthy or titled autumn brides includes
one. Women of fashion who were per-
mitted to feast their eyes on the truly
royal outfit of Mile. Anna Massena
d'Essling de Rivoli, recently married to
the ambitious young marquis OF AL
bufera, looked in vain for the abbreVl-
ated waist long regarded as an indis-
pensable adjunct to stays. Instead, they
saw stocks of wondrous chemises, each
prettier than its predecessor, on which
nimble fingers plainly had laVished
unusual beauty TO insure their welcome.
AS the bridegroom is Bonaparte,
great-grandgrand of the Lucien OF
that name, and as the bride derives
her ancestry from several of the Oldest
families in the imperialist nobility, be-
ing great-grandniece of Massena, 1t
may be supposed the lingerie was de-
signed with an eye to the newest fash
ion. The Tuxedo set doubtless Will cling
to the corset cover for awhile, but it
must yield in the end-the chemise has
come to its own again.

OFFICIAL CUP OF COFFEE.
Proper Method of Brewing the Bev-
srage to Be Determined in
Washington.

BY direction of the secretary of agri-
culture the bureau of plant industry is to
take up at once experiments to deter
mine the best manner in which to brew
cup of coffee. TO this end, says Wash
lngton report, +. l.. Lewton, specially
trained expert, has been engaged. The
view Of the department is that cup of
coffee is good because of the manner in
which it is brewed, rathay than from the
quality of the bean from which the bev-
erage is made. 1t will be appreciated by
all persons acquainted with the art and
mystery of coffee making that various con-
dltions, apparently trivial in themselves,
have to be taken into consideration in
producing the beverage
For instance, in the process of roasting
the beans may be more or less damaged
by being under or over done, and the
flavor of the coffee thus impaired to a
corresponding degree. Hence the necessity
tor ideal conditions in roasting. Again, the
effects of water at various temperatures
upon the ground coffee and the proper
period for infusion will, for the first
time in the his ory of coffee making, be
thoroughly and accurately ascertaincd.
The retention of caffeine, the active
principle of coffee, to which it owes it's
stimulating effects, and the elimination of
the catfeotannic and catfeic acids, which
are not only injurious to health, but com
muncate an unpleasant, bitter taste to
the beverage, will be, of course, the prin-
cipal objects.
