New Ways of Dressing the Hair

bang cutting than has been done for
years.
Just at present curled puffs are a.
ranged at the crown of the head. They
are grouped In a soft mass and are many
times conical in shape. A twisted braid
arrangement is sometimes worn around
the head in addition to the curls. The
basket-weave braid is used to quite an ex-
tent in the low forms OF hair dressing.
and is finished on the sides with punches
Of curtis, or with the cooled braid In bis
cult effect over the ears This latter
style is particularly liked by young girls.
There are also large twin knots dressed
low on the neck.
With the hair dressed low number or
styles in false fronts are employed Some
Of these are so arranged that the natural
hair passes over them, while others are
pinned on in front. completely covering
the top of the head. The fringed bang is
artificial in nine cases out OF ten, because
women do not like to cut off the hair in
front as fashions change so quickly.
Much use is still made Of puffs and small
curls The great vogue is for the parted
hair drawn down over the ears. Ions
braids are not so much used as they were
formerly, the present styles tending to-
ward arrangements which show the nat
ural shape of the head.

About Dress Shields.

cH1ELDS for sleeves Of thin summer
- gowns should be edged with mar
row valenciennes lace, or. still better,
covered with white lawn edged with
lace. or you may use shields with the
outside faced with silk. AS the shields
will show plainly through thin gown,
it Is well to give attention to the selec-
ton, choosing those of good quality and
light weight
Instead of sewing or pinning shields in
a waist. sew a narrow piece Of tape or
baby ribbon at each end Of the shield,
and sew similar pieces at the proper dis
lance apart in the armholes of all your
waists. The shields are quickly tied in
place. they are easily changed in wash
waists and there are no pins to rust or
prick.
To wash shields, first place them in
cold water to soak. Precipitation cannot
be removed II they are first washed in
warm water. Scrub them lightly with
tepid suds, rinse. dry and press under
a cloth.
A dress shield may be cut in half and
each half used as the lining for the
baby's bib. Make a removable cover OF
linen or lawn edged with lace or en-
brOidered.

Renewing Straw Hats.

TO restore the natural straw color
of a hat, clean with a paste of
lemon juice and sulphur or equal parts
of sulphur and cream of tartar. First
brush the hat thoroughly with this
mixture and then rinse off with clear
water and press. Sailor hats are
beautifully cleaned in this way. Wash
white straw with oXalic acid which
has been diluted with water. A leg
horn hat can be cleaned with water
or acid dampened cornmeal. Brush 1t
lightly and place it over burning sui
phur to bleach the straw. The sui
phur may be burned in a can in the
bottom of a barrel and the hat may be
suspended at the top, where 1t will
not scorch. One can freshen q colored
straw hat with dyes or water color
paints diluted in gasoline or water.
II properly applied to a hat, these dyes
hat cannot be given it's original color
1t can be dyed black, and black is always
practical.
II your black hat is a little worse
for wear and Othe crown has become
somewhat loppy through acquaintance
with the spring rains, renovate 1t by
dampen!ng the crown with cloth
moistened with water. and then press
1t dry with q warm iron. Cover the
crown with li1acs. with q pink rose
peeping out every now and then. The
effect IL very artistic. and this method
Of trimming is fashionable as we'll as

"1OMEN are using individual ideas in
w the dressing Of their hair. They
study their coiffures from point
Of becomingness. and when 1t is found
that the arrangement is more becoming
trifle higher or a trine lower there Is no
hesitancy on their part to dev1ate from
the actual style which is being copied In
order to make the couture becoming TO
the face and to the contour Of the head.
In the hair dressings of the moment the
soft fluffy effects prevail. The style tend
encies are decidedly toward the pictur-
esuue and more toward the Grecian ef-
fects than toward any other mode Of Golf
fures. Pads are, from a modish point OF
view, things Of the past This does not
mean that the hair is strained or pulled
back from the top or sides Of the head,
but, on the contrary. tho hair IN soft
waves or curls is allowed to fall loosely
about the face much as nature intended
that it should do.
There is q tendency to part the hair
either upon the side or in the middle OF
the head, although fiat pompadour effects
are to be worn. but naturally require a
soft waving of the hair, which generally
proves becoming. With this arrangement
and also with the parted hair a soft fuzzy
fringe is to be worn. being about an inch
to an inch and a half long. It is pre-
dicted that for fall there will be more

Some linen and galatea play aprons
are illustrated also. The Kate Green

The edges of the apron are bound with
