PRETTY HAIR ORNAMENTS.

Evidently the p~erishable flowers of
winter will not be SO much favored
this season for hair ornaments, since
something very handsome has made its
appearance in artificial effect. There
are countless pretty pretty wreaths of
gold, silver and chiffon, or bats wings
Of green chiffon. tipped or e~ncrusted
with fairylike linsel and huge jeweled
bodies. which rest right against the
couture. There are white chiffon lilies,
tipped with silver and dainty pink
roses and natural-looking leaves Of
velvet and spangles. Perhaps the pref
test affairs are the delicate half
wreaths of transparent flowers and
leaves in delicate myrtle tints. with
emerald at both sides to at
tach the crescent to the hair. Many
pendant affairs are seen, and some
very handsome designs in jet: The
aigrette ornament is also shown,
though the style is not so dainty as
many Of the more ornamental ones.

SHOP TALK.

It is noticeable that the prices of cos
times and hats are much lower. Hats
which a few weeks ago were selling for
SIS may be purchased for half, and there
is a noticeable decrease in Jacket suit
prices and some of the best dress ma
terials. One reason for this Is because
OF the large stock Of material most large
stores carry and the great competition In
trade. Then. with Christmas so near at
hand. a great many are making purchases
in other important things and dress is
really a secondary consideration for which
reason prices are wonderfully reduced. OF
course. there is little or no change among
the finest materials which will be used the
entire winter. but the difference is pleas
ing enough for the average buyer.

/ heard a woman say the other day
that your good looks depended upon the
beauty inside of your head-meaning
that il YOU thoughts were good and
pure and generous your face could not
help but express the same things. and
you would attain a beauty thai would
endure.
A quaint, but pretty idea, isn't 1t.
We all desire beauty, and here 1t is,
placed within our reach. All we have
to do to attain 1t is to make the best
of everything: to be sincere in little
things as well as big; to be able to
forget and forgive the shortcomings of
others, and to recognize their worth.
So many of us are all too apt to mar
row our thoughts until they concern
only ourselves. after which s~elfishness
is the handspring of our movements,
and there is nothing strange in our
judging the motives of others by u
own This state of mind is far from
a happy one. Over-selhshness begets a
sort Of defiance toward the world in
general, but it is a false at~titude-worn
in order to hide our knowledge of our
w meanness.
Somehow or other at the beginning of
a new year we think of these things.
Our minds are bound to fly back over
the years that have flown, n as we
recall the events that shaped our lives
we cannot help but see the times when
consideration for self spoiled great op-
portunities for doing good.
Such musings are humiliating, to q
certain extent, for they bring u faults
vividly before us, but we can cheer UP
in the thought that 1t is never too late
to start anew. And once we do. we find
that in giving of the best in u natures
t others we are the gamers.
So you see we a all start this very
moment on the road to beauty.

But then. he may be used to, that

still than to spend his days in fruitless
arguing.
Such women as his wife are never,
never contented. The more they have
the more they want, and there is no
gainsaying them, once their mind is
made up.
They are all too apt to live beyond
their means, in a vain-glorious effort
to outdo those who, like as not, are not
even aware of the competition.
A contented woman Is a veritable
sunbeam, in the home and out of it,
but a selfish one is always chasing dark
clouds across the happiness of others.
