Gold Bowknots for Hal,

Among the novelties In hair orna-
ments is a crinkled bowknot OF gold
ribbon attached to hairpin. This is
worn at the side of the Psyche OF
above the ear in the new couture that
Is nat IN mont and wide at the side.
These are also made OF silver rib
bon, and again of gold lace studded
with rhinestones or With silver
sequins.
They are rather expensive in the
shops, but can be made at home at
small cost. One OF them would make
an excellent Christmas gift for a young
girl who goes out in the evening.
Hair ornaments this winter are as
important as pocket books. evening
bags, di-ectoire scarfs and necklaces.

Women Who Wear Well.

1t is astonishing how great a change a
lew years Of married life often make in
the appearance and disposition Of many
women. Tho freshness, the charm, the
brilliance vanish like the bloom from a
| peach which is rudely handled. The
| natron is only dim shadow. faint echo
| OF the charming maiden. There are two
reasons for this change. ignorance and
neglect. Few Young women appreciate
the shock to the system through the
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect TO deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
nesses which too often come with mar
riage and motherhood not understanding
that this secret drain is rObbing the cheei
of its freshness and the form of it
