FASHION NOTES.

Browns and greens seem the most
preferred shades.
The correct hat for the formal func.
ton is the small hat.
Plated chiffon makes youthful and
dressy evening bodices.
Never was caracul used as much as
1t is being used this season.
The long jacket or coat is quite as
stylish as the three-quarter one.
In automobile hats and hoods the
styles have never before been so varI-
Gus.
Cloth is shimmery and supple. while
velvet and velveteen were never more
lovely.
Fabrics are soft. and all rich enough
to show all these exquisite tones to
perfection.
Polka dotted silk and. velvet are
used with good effect for belts to ac-
company colored shirt waists.
Cleaning gold or silver tassels
weigh down the ends of the scarfs
that fall from the edgs of hats.
An all black hat is the last perfect
ing touch upon costume of green
cloth having black and green braid.
ings.
Dainty French hand-embroidered
medalllons in various sizes, to set in.
to waists or lIngeries, are among the
novelties.
Very shapely yokes are those that
have somewhat the appearance of
tiny boleros open slightly at the neck
and rounding to point little below
the arms eye.
Tunic skirts cut to point in the front
and back are supposed not to detract
from ones height, but unless they are
perfectly shaped, they are likely to
swing about the feet.
