A distinct pilfer from her entirely
grown up sister is another bow girls of
16 years of age may now wear. It is
made of very wide ribbon and short loops
with the ends slightly longer and so
tied as to stand back iauntily and almost
erect. 1t is fastened to the left side
on top of the head quite after the grown
up fashion.
Bows worn by very little girls have
changed decidedly. for they are no longer
square. Instead, they have distinct
butterfly effect, gained by using ribbon

Smartest fashion DEGREES that little
, girls hair ribbons shall always match
the garment wsrn. so that in the street
it must be the same color as the hat and

being worn. a light colored bow is per-
missible. or else white, but little children
do not wear black bows now at all.
Variety is given to eying the hair by
another bow that is like rosette. This
is achieved by wide ribbon, making the
loops and ends equal lengths and pulling
them to stand up, The knots in both
this and the butterfly bow should be
tightly drawn if the effect is to be at all
smart.

In one household rice pudding is al

over the top. This makes it quite diff

Where frozen desserts are liked, and
for any reason ice is not procuable, il

Many a young man has been scared
away from the marriage altar BY learn
ing what the girl of his heart paid for
her hats. The prospect Of paying $50 to

Probably when gossip is at its height
about the breaking of So-and-so's en-

"Why?" a truthful answer would be:
