much in evidence this spring, but the
exaggerated modes will not long be

ever inappropriate a large hat may
be to the average short woman, its
becomingness to her face Offsets its
defect. Conversely, however becoming
the small hat may be to the short
woman, 1t is most trying to the many
faces who need shadows to conceal
defects. Then, too, while a faultless
couture should appear beneath the
large hat, 1t is absolutely essential to
the least degree of smartness with
the small hat. The only person who
can stand flying locks and rumpled
| tresses is she with curly hair and the
girls have nothing like the unkempt
appearance of their elders when their
hair is tousled.
The lingerie blouse is to rule SUI

them copied in all our most accessible
establishments.
A little tucked collar-band fitting
tightly, and shaped to very slight
degree higher at the back than the
front, looks well with an infinitesimal
frill at the top, the band itself being
outlined twice by a narrow black

The finest of linen lawns makes the
blouse, either hand-embroidered or

while most of the center pleats show

The feature of the blouse sketched
in our large illustration is the form
of the braces and pointed cape falling
over the shoulders and arms, which
are fashioned in filet lace, hemmed
with fold of satin which should
match the color of the skirt with
which the blouse Is to be worn. In

waist, passing beneath the belt, and
finishing in mitred points; at the back
the cape finishes at the waist. OF
course. the braces could end at the
waist In front also, but the lines con.
tinued on to the skirt give greater
length TO the figure, and are more be-
coming than when the belt cuts the
two portions of the dress in half The
underneath blouse, which Is quite sep.
arate from the cape and braces and
can be worn apart, is of lace inser-
tons and tucked net. Tiny revers of
lace meet at the bust, and below these
the lace and tucks are carried down.

sleeves are formed OF puffs on the

are SO much the rage now for wearing
over an evening dress or tea-gown.
