Pointers to the Women on What to

Wear and How to Wear 1t.
Knitted novelties are the fancy OF
the hour. This is particularly true OF
knitted headgear. Naturally they are
not the homely wooden pieces that top
| ped the heads of a generation ago. The
clever brains of French and American
designers have rung many change
upon the hood of yester year. The
principal characteristics of this knit
ted millinery ale the picturesque shape
and it's simple trimming. These hats
are worn by young and old. But a
great deal of care should be used in its
selection. BY looking at the various
models, anyone can see that without a
little forethought in selection, some
will make their wearers look as if they
were bound for the masquerade. No
matter how extreme, this knit millin-
cry is charming on the face of young
girl; but supposing a woman with a
face as full as round moon takes
fancy to this knit headgear-it would
simply emphasize the roundness of her
face and make her look absurd.
The praises of these picturesque hats
have been sung from every corner of
the fashion world, but there has never
been a season when so large proper
ton of the hats were unbecoming to
the majority of middle aged women.

and the uncommonly chic, and the
young girl may venture upon even the
most audacious effects in millinery, but
even they this season have triumphed
not on account of the hats, but in spite
of them.
Among other novelties shown in knit
wear are the knit sets bordered with
Persian bands. These sets consist of
hat, scarf, sweater, muff and gloves.
There is also the entire knit skating
costume, consisting of skirt, jacket, cap
and scarf.
This season more and more vivid
colors are being shown for the ice,
Vivid emerald green's, cerise, blue, and
even shades of orange, yellow and
gold, are being used very much. In
these shades one may always get cap
mitten and scarf to match.
The knit novelties are especially
adapted to winter motoring. The wool
caps are unusually attractive and COM
Portable for winter days. The shapes
of these caps vary considerably. The
one most favored being merely cozy
round crown cap with a brim of con-
trasting color, turned up deeply against
it, with perhaps tuft of the brim COL
or in the center of the crown.
These are shown in all colors, but
there is a decided liking for the white
crown with a brim of color, and or
some models this brim is in chenille
which gives a soft, velvety effect next
to the face which is most becoming.
A cap of light brown wool, of a
leather shade with a brim of darker
| brown, and a sweater to match in two
shades of brown, is a splendid sporting

these crocheted caps are as practical
for morning shopping as they are fol
motoring and skating.
A number of hand knitted sweaters
are to be seen. The hand knitted sweat
er is, of course, first choice, but many
consider the difficulty of getting the
garment cleaned without spelling the
shape, and therefore would rather have
| the cheaper machine made sweater
and get a new one oftener. The hand
made stitches are now closely initiated
| by machine and the better class OF
models are excellent in line and de-
tail. White is the great favorite, but
there are the grays, the soft browns
the vidid reds, and the lovely forest
and hunter green's.
The newest skirt is called the aero
plane model.
Almost all dress hats are of eXag-
gerated size.
Slippers and hose must match the
gown exactly.

worn a good deal this spring.
Shaded feather trimmings, is the
latest Paris sensation in fashions.
The broad girdle is appearing again
on the latest frocks.
