New Hair Ornaments.

Elaborateness has for some time
been the note In hair arrangement.
The winter showing OF hair orna-
ments insists upon this note. Only
an elaborate colffure could support
them or display them to advantage.
Paris introduces a novelty in the
way of barrettes. It is a huge affair
compared to the barrettes that have
been and still continue to be popu-
lar. 1t comes as long as five inches
and as wide as three.
At first glance 1t astounds, at sec
ond 1t recommends itself as an ap-
propriate and desirable support for
the Grecian knots in vogue or for
any other of the many forms of bulg-
ing coiffure that now have popularity
The big barrette curves so as to
fit well about the base Of the Grecian
knot. 1t comes in amber, tortoise
shell, metal and jet For everyday
use the amber and tortoise shell vari-
cites are the favorites.
Fortunately for the woman Of mod
crate purse they come in imitation
shell. In the real thing barrettes in
such sizes are naturally costly things.
The simplest of the big barrettes
Is a plain oblong shield of the she'll

show irregular edgeH and carved, in
laid or Jewel encrusted surfaces. One
of the most sought after models has
the shield cut in an intricate allover
openwork design.
Shields inlaid with silver gilt or
silver or encrusted with a design in
brilliants are among the more ex-
pensive order.
Many of the large barrettes do not
follow the severe oblong model but

College Girls as Innkcepers.

Two young women, graduates of
Wellesley, have earned comfortable
incomes in the last ten years from a
tearoom in the village near the col
lege. The idea sprang from the need
they themselves experienced for a
resting place and a stimulating cup
when shopping in the village. Before
their graduation they rented quar-
ters, and after leaving college, gave
all their attention to the little place.
The success of the venture was great.
Now the tearoom has been incorpor-
ated under the name Wellesley Inn.
The inn is exclusively for women, es-
pecially for the Wellesley students.

Two "HOme Hints"

Here are two home hints that I
have told to many Of my friends, and
they think they are fine. They may
interest other housekeepers. II you
wish to keep any kind of green salads
over night to use next day wet cloth
well with fresh water and roll 1t up.
Next day you will find 1t as fresh as
the day you bought It. Here is anoth-
er: II at any time your oven does not
brown your bread, cake or pies on the
top, turn out your burners from the
oven and put your pies, ETC., under
the burners where your broiler is,
and they will turn brown.--Mrs. e.
Cartier, in the New York World.

One of Our Worst Enilurcs.

l am quite clear that one of our
worst failures is at the point where,
having resolved like angels, we drop
back into the old matter-of-fact life,
and do Just what we did before, be-
cause everybody does it; and because
our fathers and mothers did 1t: all OF
which may be the very reason why
We should not do It. There is no
station of life and no place of ones
home, where. IL he wants to enlarge
his life In caring for people outside
himself, he may not starr on a career
of enlargement which shall extend in
definitely. And yet the man who en-
ters upon infinite purposes lives the
infinite llfe.-Phillips Brooks.

Besides receptions, there were
many formal dinners given by the
President and his wife and other en-

Gold and Brown.

One of the combinations coming
into first style for indoor gowns is
bronze satin. 1t is used for an En-
pire skirt that reaches to the bust,
and above this is bodice of bronze
sequins mixed with gold thread, run
on brown net.
The bodice is made in the usual
way out Of bands going around the
figure and over the arms. The only
touch of any other color is a bit of
white tulle at the neck and sleeves.
This combination is adopted for
elaborate low necked frocks worn for
special occasions. AS a rule brown is
not considered among the evening
colors, but this coppery bronze tone
shows off the heavy bullion trimming
in an effective manner and lights up
we'll under the electrics.-New York

DIR. Frank Cranes Epigrams.

Samson's strength lay in his hair;
Jesus power came from God. This
striking picture shows the growth of

1t is enough for us to know that
Samson's secret of power was, for
him, tied up in the seven locks of his
mead. And if he thought so, it was
SOTO him. 1t is a psychological
problem, not physiological.

Sewing a Cure For Nervousness.

Sewing Cure For Nervousness.
Now that an eminent specialist
has asserted sewing is conducive TO
quiet and well-ordered nerves, 1t is
probable many women will renew
their interest in the art of the needle.
But ii is not likely a majority of
women active in society will follow
the specialists advice, for they have
time only for the quest of pleasure.
However, society women are only
small factor in the feminine world,
and to many others the words of the
ing. Sewing has been neglected since
the time of our mothers. There are
comparatively few women who now
pride themselves upon their skill
with the needle. On the contrary,
interest has been given to trashy nov
els, trashy plays, bridge and other
distractions. This specialist says II
