The tones OF gray can be intensified or
modified and often entirely transformed

ONE OF the most fashionable acces-
~ sories to bridesmaids costumes at
present are the Alsatian bows for the
hair. These are especially suitable for
young girls, either fer the occasions of
weddings or for evening functions.
They are exceedingly dashing in ap-
pearance and yet very simple and are
much more becoming to young girls
than feather or aigrette ornaments.
while they are also newer though not
more becoming ehAn the leaf or flower
wreaths.
The bow goes directly in front, a
twisted piece OF the material going
around the high coiffdre as snood.
The bows may be made either OF gauze
sprinkled with crystals, gold spangles,
ETC.. Of liberty satin or velvet to match
or contrast with the costume, or OF
cloth OF gold or silver. The bow is
quite large and very jaunty.

Net and Lace Gowns

These styles have been so conspicu-
ously popular for so long a time that
there arc well-founded rumors from
the HEADQUARTERS of fashion to the ef-
feet that they viii no longer rank as
prime favorites. In spite OF all the
runors however, the influence OF the
empire style is most distinctly notice
able, and princess gowns are most pop
ular. There is not the same eNagger-
sted rendering OF the fashion in either
case, buy the lines have been tried and
found so generally becoming that the
fashions are bound to remain with US
q while longer. Most interesting is ii
10 notice how the lines have been
adapted 10 the individual, to accentuate
sIenderness, to disguise stoutness, and
by the hang Of the skirt to give style
and grace.
Net lace or chiffon gowns for theater
wear are extremely smart and also
most practical, although that advan-
Iage does not as a rule enter into the
calculations OF the average woman, 20
whom clothes represent the end and
aim Of existence AS has already been
said. the figured chiffons and gauZes
are most attractive. but then other
materials. trimmed with bands or silk
or velvet. are extremely smart. The
clever way in which the bands OF rib
bon or silk are, used to trim the skirts
does not. as might be supposed, cut
the lines of the figure and make a
woman look short and stout, but for
some inexplicable reason, known only

MOST fetching are the new lingerie
hats which are now being shown
for children, but which may also
be worn by Southern resort summer
girls. They are not made OF such heavy
linen as those in vogue last year, and
there will not be the same opportunity
for utilizing centeTpieces as there was
then The new hats are moderate In
width OF brirn and length of crown.
They are made of fine linen or batiste
and trimmed with narrow Valenciennes
or guipure and with a little fine en-
broidery. The brims are faced with
pIeated or gathered net and the favOrits
trimming is soft pink satin ribbon and
huge pink roses. There are also hats
in coIored linen, especially IN Odd
shades Of blue with white embroidery.
that are most effective. Now Is the
time for young women who are clever
with their needles to busy themselves
in making a sufficient assortment OF
this beauteeus headgear to last them
through the summer, for there Is little
doubt that IL will have all the popular
ity of former seasons. besides which it
is quite as expensive as II Is dainty
when bought ready mads.
THE flower shops this winter have
had a new feature OF interest to
housewives. This is the new way OF
keeping certain sorts OF green things
without water or air. The plant usually
used in this way IS the wintergreen, a
charmingly beautiful little plant either
for table centerpiece or to give q.
touch OF the woods to a drawing
Its dark green leaves and bright scarlet
berries have never before received
proper appreciation. According TO the
new method the wintergreen is now put
in the bottom of a glass globe. being
planted in moss. II may be placed on
a glass plate and covered with a glass
globe. AS no air can get TO the plans
it is preserved without watering. It Is
remarkable how bright the plant keeps
under the glass. 1t IL said that violet
plants can also be kept Ia this way.
