The Art Of Selecting a Veil

The inconspicuous veil is alwas safe.
and one of the best styles has a white
foundation of filmy sort Of net, with
the shadow design outlined with fine
black threads.
Wells with borders are worn, but
they are only becoming when the bor-
der is worn at the top of the hat
with the palmer part, having but lit
tie OF the scroll upon it, brought over
the face. The Inquired part usually adds
attractivcncss TO a hat, while the
remainder of the veil covers the face
and ends under the chin.
All over designs are the safest in
restment when purcha sing a made veil,
for then the veil can be adjusted upor

there will be no danger of any dis.

veil with tho border.

pected to last forever, neither should
IL sag or lose its shape after the

what Is wrong with them when ut

there is something lacking ard pre-

not know where the trouble lies but

When becoming hcaddrcss is de-
sired, the contour OF the face, the
color scheme OF the gown and the
period to which it Belongs are to be
considered. Harmony is the kcyword
to all successful effects; when minor
details accord, the entity is forced to
appear absolutely correct. One of the
important notes ia the sash on the

Cleaning Silk Gowns.
Now that black and dark colorcd
silks are again in fashion it is wise
to use our grandmothcrs' remedies for

SILK gown was a real possession.
Among the infalliblc remedies for
cleaning black satin or silk which
they knew of there was the gin and

mixture of this was used to remove
the shine and clean It thoroughly, tho
silk being afterwards ironcd while

An oid-fashioned method of clean
