busy. fashioning these new and
strange and beautiful feather decora-
tions.
Smart. to the last degree, is the
pompon military style) of Spanish
coque, such as the Italian army Off
GERS wear on their hats. Miladi has
borrowed this crisp, dignified decora-
tion for her turban of fur or velvet.
The coque feather is an expensive lux
ury. but 1t is elegant and never out OF
style. ..-..
There are innumerable made wings
in which each separate feather Is
-~-~ed TO foundation They are
single and In pairs, and many mem
bers Of the world of birds who are
natural enemies, are represented in
these creations. They lie down in
piece" together. as the facetious ex-
press 1t.
Among the airiest are the new
mountings of ostrich into sprays or
aigrettes. They will form a substitute
for the aigrette which Is forbidden in
some states and which one may not
wear with a perfectly easy conscience.
The made fancy feathers are nearly
all the result Of intelligent designing,
with feathers of domestic or other edi-
Bile fowls, and their manufacture gives
work to thousands OF families No
one need have scruples against wear
Ing them, or against the ostrich plume
or fancy ostrich feathers.
The pieces pictured, and others like
them. make the work of the home
milliner easy. Given a good, graceful
shape and one Of these feathers, the
trimming problem solves itself.

cretonne headrests in fiowered and
Dutch patterns, which need merely to
be braid outlined, or the French linen
block print table and pillow covers,
which come in cretonne patterns and
require only to be braid and fringe
finished.
To keep these "unspotted" from the
world while in the course OF their put

making for themselves white and blue
crash aprons furnished with four deep
pockets formed by simply turning up
the lower edge to the required depth
and edging 1t with wide braid
Into such pockets may be placed the
materials for teacloths to be bordered
