Winter.

Although much protest was made
last winter about the temperance
of the bang" across the forehead, it
seems to be rather firmly intrenched
now.
The majority of women will wear
it this winter. In large measure 1t
will be becoming. 1t will compel
women to lift from their foreheads
that low-hanging mass of hair, now
the fashion, and substitute it with
q tiny, wavy fringe.
1t is absurd to cut the hair to make
this bang. One can buy it by tae
piece In any hair shop and attach it
under ones own hair by an invisible
hairpin.
One should be extra careful not to
get it thick or straight
The poodle bang, once so falhion-
able in the eighties of the nineteenth
century, also promises to return. It
has already done so in Paris, but
there it, like the wavy fringe, only
accompanies the flattened pompadour
Both of these have been introduced
to give softness to a forehead from
which the hair has been lifted, and
also to give a showing Of hair under
the hat.
They should never be worn with
the hair severely parted in front.

Paris loves the pulled-in waist line.
While she has held bravely and long
to the high-waisted skirt on many of
her gowns, and, indeed, with an ardor
not known in America, she has
grasped the opportunity with the very
first gown that admitted of it, to put
on a leather belt, and close one at
that.
She has worn this belt during the
summer with some of the foulard and
lingerie gowns and with the best of
her linen morning frocks. She has
strained a point to wear it with
dresses that were scarcely built for it.
In this particular fashion period
through which we are passing, the
belt is frequently impossible with the
half-ftted princess of the moyen age,
except it be the loose leather belt of
the silken girdle run through slots
opened beside the princess panels.
The pulling in of closely fitted
princess is about as awkward as any
thing that could we'll be imagined,
but the Partisan woman, who always
finds her opportunity, has worn a
shaped leather belt successfully with
model like the white pique shown in
