NEW STYLES IN TOTKNOTS
FOR EVENING WEAR
(Chicago Tribune.l

possible against the imported fashion
Of hair ornaments of all kinds for even
ing wear. But now you see women go
ing to the theatre even in the street
cars with long party coats and with
some little fancy affair in the hair to
take the place of q hat. Without adopt
ing the extreme of elaborate effects
which are worn on the other side there
is now a finish" TO the hair worn al
most generally in the evening while the
black velvet bow is seen for every day
wear.
Whenever there is a vogue of Olga
NctherSole there is q vogue of wear
ing the hair on the forehead. Ii viii
be remembered that she introduced the
couture that was first put in that po-
sitien. and now fashionable hair again
is being coiled at a point which is eX-
aggeratedly far forward.
This has brought out number OF
new combs and barrettes, which are
really hairpins, as they are most of
them mounted upon two prongs long
enough to thrust well back into the
firm part Of the hair but with the or
namental part tilted at an angle which
win make il stand upright in the POM
padour in spray fashion or curve across
il in d narrow band of jewels or metal
work. The empire comb, which reaches
TO five or six inches in height, is Ole
of the revivals abroad which is not like
IN to take with the American, who al
ways has the good taste TO avoid mas
sive effect and to follow as nearly as
possible the outlines OF her head. Some
Nomen who possess these old combs
have hit upon the idea of having them
divided. thus making lovely jeweled
side combs which fit perfectly with the
hair.
The newest decoration for elaborate
evening wear is narrow feather which
is pressed TO an elongated shape and
fastened almost crOssWiSe over the
pompadour, from where it starts at q
little 10 one side in a jeweled button.
Feathered pompOns and little punches
of tips, either with or without an up
standing aigrette are brought wei for
ward to help build the hair still further
on the face.
An osprey fastened with . bunch OF
tulle also is set horizontally and dag
onaily in the same way as the Prince
of Wales tip. These are called comets,
on account. Of their sweeping lines.
Sometimes they are made TO rise out OF
a choux of flowers \ black comet

worn with 4 black evening gown. es-
peciaily IL there is q bit OF gold trim
ming on the gown. Black violets are
made up into wreaths for the use OF
those who wear half mourning or
black and white. Flat wreaths and
ee-coTnered caps Of beadwork with
pendant beadwork fringe or crown ef-
fects are more becoming and better
liked by many women, and where the
hair is light or OF too soft quality they
can be adjusted far enough forward to
help the high effect. The bows and
flowers which formerly were put down
by the ears are Of things past, though
one single brilliant rose worn we'll front
in the hair is q popular decoration. One
woman was seen at the theatre not long
ago with leaves i'm her hair. and the
effect was artistic in emphasizing the
little touch of orange velvet in her
cream and lace gown.
Orchids are particularly liked. and
one Of the prettiest is a pure gold or
ch.d with a long graceful bud and some
natural foliage. Roses Of gold tissue
are one Of the favorite creations OF the
counter where these ornaments are
made. and one pretty bunch OF two or
three gold roses was mounted in
sprays Of maiden hair fern. An odd
looking imported ornament was made
with two sweeping sword ferns starting
from white tulle 1t evidently was
built on the comet lines Of the osprey.
Two peacock feathers with a ruche Of
coppery tulle shading to the hair Of an
auburn brown beauty We're mounted
with the same shade of copper and
bronze shades which are around the
outer edge Of a peecock's feather.
The making Of these ornaments al
ways is delightful work and the ad-
vantage in doing SO is that they can
carry out the idea Of the gown and can
he made 10 suit the hair. This idea is
carried out both in shape and color. as
the fancy Of MANY brown-hailed wo-
men is to have tulle poa1pons in shade
exactly matching the hair. These are
mounted one above the other on two ar
three wires. which are also wrapped in
tho tuiIe and which can be twisted 10

Pale shades OF colored velvet ribbon
with either cIys'al or colored beads
Hewed all over them can be ornamented
