One Way of Trimming the High
 Crown Shape.

One of the new ways of using ribbon in millinery Is shown in this illustration. The wide soft satin ribbons are folded Into pleats and looped the pleated loops being treated exactly as though they were one breadth of ribbon. The effect of a handsome ribbon used in this way Is treuely rich. In the particular hat we show here the color Is blue and the ribbon used Is three shades of blue. The hat Is a high crown shape with a brim of medium breadth slightly rolled to the left. The ribbon trimming is placed in front and reaches quite to the top of the high crown, the lighter tone of the blue being placed at the hat brim. There Is cluster of three full and rather short ostrich tips these in the medium tone of blue. bandeau Is necessary to adjust this hat properly to the head, and 1t is rather shallow one. There Is fiat ribbon bow made from the pleated ribbon loops, on the bandeau.
 Mofre silk Hats Are Novelty.
 Some of the smartest of the fall hats are covered with heavy more silks. These silks are in tones that harmonize with the leading color of the costume the hat is to be worn with. The high crown and rather straight brim shape here illustrated Is covered with brown moire, and trimmed with a wide crushed scarf of the moire, which ends in a broad bow in front. In the centre of this Is set fancy feather the coloring in shades of brown with tips of dull blue. This hat would be excellent with any matching brown costume or with any of the new fancy striped broadcloths or skibo serges in combination of brown and blue.
 French Felt Trimmed With the
 Fashionable Gouras Fumes.

dull smoked grey hats that match cos tunes; these being especially good with the striped broadcloths that usually In clude for their body color either grey or brown.
 There certainly should be no great diff fculty in selecting q becoming hat this season from the variety shown. It Is well to remember, however. that the matter of the hat is serious one and can make or mar the general good ap- pearance of toilette It's selection should be given due time and deiberation.

Small Toaue Trimmed With
 Huge Wings.

There are many occasions for whict the small toque is the most appropriate hat, and there are many women who find it the most becoming of all headwear. For these times and these people the mil liners haye made due preparation in the smart little toques for fail. These arc usually of velvet made very soft witt drapings and shirrlngs over cords. Though the hat Is small, the trimming is often as heavy as what would ordinarily be on larger shape In the illustration we show toque of smoked grey velvet trim med with four large shaded grey wings. The wings are arranged to give an CT ceedingly smart line to the hat. one pan being placed almost upright

Iustrated Is of violet felt with a wide binding of violet velvet about the brim. The crown is of medium height and is swathed about with a violet velvet over laid with a band of silver and violet trimming. Gouras feathers in a delicate shade of gray, tipped with white, form perfect forest about the crown. This hat is adjusted to the head with very shal- low bandeau, which Is made with a back opening that Ats 1t down on to the hair. These slashed bandeaus are noticed in many of the new hats They adjust the hat to closer line of the head than the all round bandeau, we are told
 The Extreme Side Roll.
 An excellent example of the turned up brim Is here illustrated. The hat Is semi-dress affair of deep champagne col ored felt finished with black velvet and the brim edges bound with black gros- grain ribbon somewhat in tailored effect The crown Is rather high and the brfm towards Its outer edge Is rolled up smartly and gracefully at ,the left side, the turn extending well towards the front. The hat is worn quite far back on the head. About the crown is a broad band of black velvet finished on the right side with large fat bow, and at the left there Is huge plume cockade of coque feathers from the centre of which springs full bunch of Paradise plumes. There Is jaunty air about this hat that Is extremely becoming to a certain type of face.
 Large Velvet Shapes Are Trimmed
 With Ostrich.
 The fad for fancy feathers, while it has lessened the use of ostrich, has by no means driven the latter beautiful feather from the field, and we find many of the most artistic picture hats of the season trimmed with sweeping ostrich plumes. A shape with a medium high crown, sharply rolled on the 5rim, Is GOV cred smoothly with green velvet and trimmed with two long full plumes fin the new old gold shade. which Is so fash ionable at the present moment in Paris There is a pompon fin fancy feather ef- feet Tn green tipped with old gold, and green ribbon is draped about the crown and arranged in an extremely smart bow on the high bandeau which lifts the hat on the left side.

Making the Complexion Nice.

The woman who uses powder that is
100 white for her face does herself an
injustice. She makes her complexion
purple. There is something about the
mixing Of the different shades which
makes the skin look as though it were
suffering from a smouldering fire
Those awful purplish compilations that
one sees so frequently are caused by
using too much powder, and powder of
q shade too white 70 rthe skin.
The woman who uses a powder that
IS too dark simply makes her face look
dirty. She gives herself an appearance
that is far from neat. Her skin always
looks as though L would be the better
for dash of soap and water. These
things are mentioned merely that the
woman who is about to begin the use of
face powder will appreciate the neces-
sity Of getting a powder that har-
monies with her artistic requirements.
There are many women who fail to
remember that the ears are related to
the face. They are visible and are
viewed in the same glance which takes
in the rest Of the general Yisage. To
neglect the ears is to neglect very inn
portant part of the makeup.
There should be bit of rouge ap-
piled to the lobs of the ears. Pow
der should then be rubbed in back of
the ears and all along the hair line. A
very little powder can be applied with
q bit Of silky rag so that the hair line
is made to harmonic with the rest of
the face. Everybody has seen the wo-
man who does not powder except right
in the middle Of her face. Every one
knows the woman who neglects her
forehead and the line of her temples.
Don't when you are pOwedring, let
the powder gather in patches here and
there. 1t gives the face an uncanny
look, and it speaks of poor grooming.
The best groomed woman is the one
who is so perfectly groomed that you
do not suspect her of being groomed at
all. If she uses powder she does it in
such a thoroughly artistic manner that
there is not one grain Of powder Wis
ible upon her countenance. The badly
powdered woman always has a dash or
two Of powder along her cheekc, and
too much on her nose. And not one
woman in ten but has powdered her
eyebrows in her zeal to get on enough.

The Home Girl,

This is a day of fads and fancies,
when every girl must have some pro-
fession or special occupation, often for
getting that her first and highest work
lies in the home. All honor TO the army
Of working women whom necessity
forces to earn a livelihood for them
selves and others. There are many
brave, noble souls among them, and as
a rule, they are kin6-hearted and hn1
selfish. 1t is not Of them that I speak,
but of the daughters in comfortable
homes who are 1iscontented and who
wish to go out in the world and join the
the ranks of wage earners. 1t is well
for every woman to nave some spe-
cialty by which she can support her
self if necessary; but the girl who can
spend the years between graduation
and marriage in her fathers home is
fortunate. and she should appreciate
the privilege. Then, too, she is often
sorely needed; the poor mother has
borne the burden so long and begins to
fail under it, and there are, perhaps,
younger children. The influence of an
older sister is second only to that of a
mother; and if she have patience tact
and unselfshness, she can even some
times come closer to her brothers and
sisters because she is young, and in
sympathy with them. And should the
girl herself marry, The IS certainly bet
ter fitted to take charge VI home than
if she had been in a store or office.

Children Have "Americanitis."

Quiet is the great need of the
American child" said DR.. Earl Barnes
recently in a lecture before school sup
erintendents, principals and teachers
of Chicago and neighboring districts
gathered at the Association Auditorium
building. His subject was Greatest
Need of American Children"
DR.. Barnes said that the focus of
EDUCATIONAL life was gradually shifting
from the curriculum to social questions
intimately connected with the life of
the child. He said that Europeans had
coined a word, "Americanitis," to de-
scribe the restless activity that holds
the natives of this country.
I'VE were not always so restless"
said DR.. Barnes. THE period began
about 1910. when we began climbing the
Allegheny mountains. think the con-
dition has partially resulted from
'cross-life,' that is, the admixture of all
races and their blending into one. To-
day men and women no longer grow
older: there is no retiring age. If the
nervous and digestive systems of the
individual are broken down by this
rush, then there comes lack of clear
thinking, and consequently our art lit
erature and music must deteriorate.

Take Care of Your Face.

If you want to keep wrinkles from
coming wash your face with cold water
and then wipe it over with diluted lem
on juice. This hardens the skin. Soft,
fiabby skins may be greatly improved
by the steady use of cold water and
lemon juice, and the lemon pulp on the
skin makes an excellent soap, removing
liver spots as well as CRIME of daily
travel.
Hot water should be employed for
delicate skins with great care, as it will
destroy the elasticity of the muscles
An occasional liberal use Of hot water
for cleansing, followed with very cold,
until the face glows with the reaction,
may be beneficial. but should never be
given oftener than once a fortnight.
The best dermatoligists say much
harm is done to the face by indiscriIn-
mate ang ignorant massage. Massage
wrongly given may stretch the muscles
and make them f1abby. It is a good
thing when done as it should be, but
how and when it should be given one
should learn from aspeeialist. Very
seldom two skins require the same
treatment, and what benefits one may
harm another.
Sea salt makes most skins firm. A
lady in her forties who has not a wrin-
kle, says it is because she has never
gone to bed without first washing her
face in cold water and then wiping ii
with rose water and glycerin.

The sanctItx Of Home lies.

Few persons realize and very few re-
feet to what an extent the radicals Of
the day are pushing their schemes Of
social revolution Where so much is
bad il is hard to say what is the
worst, but perhaps the worst is the
plan to abolish marriage and break up
the home. It is in the mind Of the IA
naucs that marriage should cease, that
men and women should mate and part
at pleasure and that the children re-
sulting from these temporary unions
should belong not to the animals which
produced them, but to the state, which
must have citizens and own them like
other kinds of property and use them
for it's purpose. This is the ultimate
end Of the divorce evil if persisted in
many future years.
This odious scheme is seriously pre-
sented in books in wide circulation, and
its advocates in trying to make per-
verts in places frequented by the sedi-
tious communist and the murderous an
srchists are not interfered with by the
authorities. While such mischief is in
the air it may not be deemed out of
place to refer to childhood from the
Christian viewpoint. Childhood is the
Introduction of an individual into Gods
family. the first stage of the ascent
toward everlasting life. There is a
place for the training of such person
newborn to such a prospect and hope,
and that place is the home. 1t is sacred
above all others next to the Church;
rather it is a part, an outer portal, of
the Church. To love the children is the
instinct of humanity, to sacrifice for
them one of the first duties. Mon
strous is the mwillingness to bring
them into being lest they should prove
a trouble or interfere with the selfish
enjoyment of life.

Beautiful Eyebrows.

(By Eleanor Morris)
IL you wish to be up to the moment,
Dame Fashion DEGREES that the brows
must be formed into perfect arches,
ana narrow at that; not saying "how
% you do?" in the middle of the fore
bead or playing a game of Tag over it.
10 make these delicate arches is in
ueed a work of art, but the electrician,
with her carefully trained eye and
needle, will destroy the super1uous
halrs and teach you to train the re-
naming ones into these desired arches
That lend positive enchantment to the
face.
Since the expert cannot be reached
by every one, for those that are de-
prlVed of her services this bea dtifying
must be done at home A pair of tweez-
ers is substituted for the electric nee
die. Each offending hair is removed,
ana with fine camers hair brush form
the arches, keeping iC mind that they
must be narrow. The hairs that are
subjected to the tweezcr process, I'M
ike those that are destroyed by the
electric needle, in time will return, and
must be continually treated.
For those that have no brows to
speak Of and there are many, in the
morning and at night dip the brush
into melted cosmoline or cocoanut oil,

will coax them to grow and also give
them ulster. Should the brows have
been lost by illness or other causes
this tonic will be found most excellent
in restoring them: Olive oil, half ounce;
oil Of nutmeg, twelve drops; oil of
rosemary, twelve drops; tincture of
cantharides. one drachm.
When the brows and hair form
strong contrast they give the face a
most peculiar expression and take
from it much of it's charm. In such
cases it is advisable to darken them.
and if carefully done 1t is impossible
to detect the makeup, and no one
should be criticised for using the
same.
Whilst the b1ows may be beautified

to the lasnes it is a rather delicate
process, and should be done for you,
particularly the clipping, which is pre-
scribed for many TO increase their
length. This certainly is most danger
Gus to do for ones self, for If by any
chance should one hair get into the
eye it would cause irritation and per-
haps injury to the eye. Also the dark
ening lotions are to be avoided, as
many contain poisonous substances
and the eyes are far too valuable to
trife with. Science has done much for
us, but it has not yet discovered a
process by which eyes are made with
which we can see. The most simple |
and harmless application to increase |

In tones of sorrow or Of mirth,
The sweetest sound TO me on earth.
Never again thy step to hear.
Which falls like music on mine ear,
All! cen before thy face / see
Thy step brings happiness to me.
Never again in eyes Of blue,
To watch the love lights varying nue.;
To meet thy earnest gaze and feel
Sweet trust in thee thro' woe or veal.
Never to feel that mystic thrill
At touch of hands; but ever still,
Go where we may, whate'er our lot,
Each loved ones face is ne'er forgot.

Two baby hands,
Without a scar,

Like faded flowers
But fairer still
