When tied the face of the wearer of
the veil looks as if it were in butter

The small, thickly scattered che
mile dot is going to be worn again,
but probably will not be so much in
favor as the larger dots. Large dots
are supposed to have peculiarly CO
quettish and becoming tendency, and,
despite the fact that t4ey are injuri-
GUS TO the eyes, women will wear
them.
| Wells for second mourning are made
of Tosca and Brussels nets, and in
many cases of regular yelling nets.
They are a yard and quarter long
and from sixteen to eighteen inches
wide, bordered at the ends from one
to four rows The wells fall over the
face and are gracefully draped at the
back of the hat.
Ruche and "Ruff" Neckwear.
Neckwear this year runs to the
ruche and the ruff Anything which
will stand out will be popular. Nets
and molines are extremely popular,
as are batiste and ribbons edged with
net.
The latest things in jabots are built
on the order of the fam They are mar
row at the neck and flare out gradual
ly in accordion plaits or tiny tucks
or dainty rulings. To be strictly
truthful, however, it may be said that
anything lacy or fluffy is correct in
the fancy neckwear-provided that 1t
is clean.
Tailored neckpieces maintain their
customary severity. Now and then
you come across one that has added
touch of frivolity but the general
tendency is for the tailored collar
to remain a tailored collar ana
eschew anything which pertains to
the frivolous.
There will be some linen and en-
broidered collars, but not many.
Dutch collars will be worn by young
girls. but women will not find much
use for them. In fact, for the really
up to date woman there will be little
chance for separate collars, as her
dresses will be made all in one piece
and her blouses will be few and also
have collars attached. Many women,
however, will cling in spite OF every
thing to the convenient shirt waist
and for these women a knowledge Oh
the latest neckwear is a necessity.

"Sir," said the young man respect
fully. II am poor man and you are
millionaire. It seems prescriptions
in me, no doubt, to aspire to the hand
of your daughter. But my love for her
is so great that cannot be stopped
conventions and conveniences. Az
sir, will you give her to me?"
The old magnate seemed interested.
'But which of my four daughters DO
you want?' he asked, not unkindly.
Eagerly, the sutton made answer:
ooh, I'll leave that to you, sir!"-

mothers other name was. Is not that
extraordinary?

says that it was founded on what he
read in an old author, and that author,
Paracelsus, is one papa believes in.
So. / suppose, there is some truth in

quite like that of Undine. One night
my father heard a cry on the moor,
and he went to the place, and found
