color scheme this is done In white.
In fact, this use OF white above the
face is one OF the most pleasing Of the
late hints In millinery; for RS already
limited. there is nothing more pretty,
more sure OF becoming effect than this
same device.
The bandeau is so very prominent In
the late models that just what they
would be without 1t makes one wonder.

The so-calIed picture hats are really
by far the most effective things In their
line that have appeared. Some extreme
novelties are presented In these; notably
those that obviously owe their inspiration
to the historic portraits In the Louvre
and Luxembourg There are chapeaux

doxically enough. those same chapeaux
were worn by the men of that time. The
women of those days dressed the hair
ahsurdly high, twisted and pillowed II
into the most fantastic forms. and relied
upon ribbons, silks. sHtins, wells and
gauzes for all of the millinery effects
that they cared or dared TO try IN con
junction with such couture. To the
men belonged the high-crowned brimmed
and heplumed chapeaux, and these are
Just what the fashionable mondaine OF
today adopts for her most modish APP
pearances.
High crowns, with round tops. square
tops and fat tops, are one of the hall
marks OF the newer mode; and the bruins
are broad or narrow. according to the
taste OF the milliner and the caprice OF
the purchaser. On some OF them the
brinns are really OF cRrtwheel size: while
on others a fingers breadth would cover

Best Cough Medicine
For Children

When you buy a cough medi-
cine for small children you
want one in which you can
place implicit confidence. You
want one that not only relieves
but cures. You want one that
is unquestionably harmless.
You want one that is pleasant
to take. Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy meets all of these con-
ditions. There is nothing so
good for the coughs and colds
incident to childhood. 1t is al
so a certainpreventive and cure
for Group, and there is no dam
ger whatever from whooping
cough when it is given. 1t has
been used in many epldem les
of that disease with perfect
