degree OF art and precision. one

barbarism had returned so wide and
fervid IL the craze for beads, buckles
and bracelets, were IL not for the fact
that each article which Is donned
gains that distinction by reason OF Its
harmony or contrast Color plays a
great part In the present sartOrlal
drama and the fashionable woman Is
always seeking for effect I'm its use.
Beads IN TIE form OF necklaces are
worn In all colors and they are used to

the costume. The necklace worn with
the lingerie blouse is often chosen TO
match the hat and gloves, or 10 offer

Some very beautiful shades Of green |
and amethyst are seen I'm these beads,
while amber Is returned TO favor with
a vengeance.
Among the prettlest necklaces re-
Gently seen are those of shell from
Honolulu with colorlng of wondrous
beauty. They come IN all of the
pastel shades, while the blue-grays,
greens. pale yellows and old rose are
beautifully combined. The shells are
very small and alive with color. The
necklaces are often long enough 20
wind several times about the neck.
Ilatpins, too. are causing consider
able interest this year. appearing In
all manner OF fantastic shapes and In
rare colorings The same idea Of
harmony is adhered 10 with these
quite as much as I'm the choice OF a
necklace. Those pins with heads OF
amber are considered especially smart
with black hats as well as those OF
tan and brown, while almost every
fashionable color may be matched in
hatpins OF crystal or other persuasion.

Carrying out this idea OF artistic

There has been greater demand for :
.aucy combs and hair ornaments this
year than for sometime past. Head
lroesing has reached It's height during
NE past few years and coiffures We're
never more exquisitely arranged. II
S small wonder then that the demand
for combs has been so great. Here
he idea OF suitability is still followed

best harmony with the costume, the
little bar or other shaped pin which
holds the stray locks Mt the neck must
match the comb. These are In all
prices. One very striking and attrac-
tive comb seen recently was of COM

the effect OF iridcscence In coloring.
The price was $3.50. Another OF tor
