NEW TRIMMING IDEAS
FOR cHILDREN'S HATS

Among the smartest models for chill
dren's. headwear are those trimmed
with flowers. ribbon or taffeta in pompa-
dour designs. These patterns are among
the latest ideas in Paris and are particu-
larly adapted for children. In many in
stances the crown is of taffeta and the
brim of straw or vice versa. Entire tat
feta hats, or taffeta hats combined with
straw. in plain or changeable effects to
match the coats. are well liked.
Another clever trimming idea Is the
Introduction of band made Of small box
pleats or accordion pleats, which is
placed around the brim and finished or
with a rosette or a smart tailored bow.
Clusters Of small flowers are used effec-
lively on many of the models, roses, for
get-me-nots and daisies being the ia
vorite flowers. Natural colored straw,
blue, black and golden brown are the col
0rs most in evidence. While red is very
popular it is used as q trimming rather
than for the entire hat. The same Is true
of Copenhagen blue, rose and green. The
delicate pastel colors in pink and blue
are also favorites.
In tailored effects there are simple sail.
ors with band Of satin, taffeta, or gros-
grain ribbon. Bonnets for very young
children are Of straw, silk, null, Swiss,
etc, with trimmings of ribbon or flow
ers.

hair is drawn back lightly and up from
back to a sort Of Psyche effect. The
strings Of pearl beads formed into ban
deau that takes in the front undulations
and is twisted into good sized loops that
fall over the ears, is most effective.
In the last sketch the couture has larger
strands of hair taken up for each wave.
and all arranged quite Systematically In
top Of the head and another at the back.
while a few locks struggle from under
the silver band.
There is no excuse whatever for wear
ing ones hair unbecomingly dressed ex-
cept sheer ignorance OF what suits one
because there is such a variety OF styles.
Neither is it necessary to resort to the
Marcel, for there are any number OF
styles in in which straight locks are per-
Missile, or absolutely demanded.
For example. there is the Berlin" in
which the hair Is parted through the
center down to the nape Of the neck and
each side combed smoothly. the ends roll
ed up and under in a loose coil that ter
around to meet the one from the other
side. This method results rather severely,
1t is true, but it is regarded as one OF the
most artistic Of the many types Of Golf
fures.
Then there is the helmet couture,
much affected by women who are in
clned to large, clear-cut features and
are. at the same time. blessed with an
abundance of hair, although it is one OF
the few styles in which foreign hair can
be used without appearing so absolutely
false that there is no advantage In as
Stunning it. The hair Is first drawn UP all
around in a hollow pompadour that
frames the face, and this is surrounded
by q loose but rather full braid, above
which Is piled the remainder Of ones own
| hair left over from the pompadour, as
Stunning that the braid is foreign.

THE BEAUTY SECRETS
OF DAME NATURE

It is one Of the incongruities of the
beauty search that women will spend the
greater part of an hour before their glass,
attempting to aid nature in her good In
tentions and conceal her little malices,
only to destroy the whole carefully built
structure by frowns and grimaces.
This futile attempt at facial art is like
yelling an exquisite picture with an air
Of heaviness and foreboding. painting 1t
in wonderful colors and then drawing
across the fair surface harsh black lines.
Streak the greatest masterpiece with dark
pencil marks. dim ats luster with dull
gray atmosphere, and it becomes thing
Of ugliness, without value and without
charm.
The face is natures canvas Of beauty
upon which she spreads the colors Of her
palette, according to the wisdom OF the
owner. She does her best, and II we
choose to mar the result with wrinxled
brow, deep burrows and fine lines the
blame should be placed where it right
fully belongs.

USES AND ABUSES OF
MASSAGE TREATMENT

Reverting moment to the eyes. women
should be very careful how they attempt
any massage Of this kind. The skin is
somewhat loose there. and unless very
carefully treated Is only too easily form
ed into lines When It is necessary to
apply cream ones self 1t should always be
done with the third finger, because this
is the one with naturally the siightest

near the nose on the upper lid and con-
tinuing right around till the nose again

such cases to use plenty of cream and

there Is no fear OF crumpling and press
Ing the skin.
Another use OF massage which can be
safely used at home Is to encourage the
formation of flesh on badly nourished
tissues, which result in holl0ws and hag-
gardness.

BY CORA MOORE.

The present mode OF hair dressing is
perhaps, the most successful Of all times
so far as can be judged from ancient and
modern history. Occasionally one sees an
absurd exaggeration. but that is the ex-
ception. Women who are looked upon
as arbiters Of fashion have adopted the
simple couture that calls for neither the
masses of extraneous hair SO recently
demanded, nor for thee garfsh orna-
ments that were such blot on the fash
ion escutcheon last year.
In the sketch are illustrated three OF
the prevailing colts. The first requires
cluster of curls, but each of the others
may be accomplished with ones own
tresses, however scanty.
The "Arabesque." as the original Golf
fure is called, has the locks waved all
over, then drawn loosely down to form
a not-too-plain parting that occurs just
at the side instead of directly through
the center. At the back cluster of curls
a trifie larger than the corkscrew variety

Talking With the Eyebrows.

Long lines across the brow, the result
Of eievating the eyebrows to assist in con-
versation, is q common mistake against
which too much cannot be said. These
seams continue to- grow deeper with each
year until they become fixed and dark,
carrying with them the appearance Of age
and anxiety. BY all means massage them
with good cold cream, using rotary
movement, and then practice talking MI
nus the eyebrow accompaniment before
your mirror, say half hour at q time.
Persistence in this treatment will bring
about it's abandonment. Be careful not
to draw the eyes into unnatural lines
when laughing.
All peculiar grimaces. the Hitting Of one
eyebrow. the peculiar witch Of any mus
Gle Of the face are menace to beauty.
Cultivate placidity. Think good thoughts.
Refuse to dwell upon the faults. sins or
shortcomings Of your neighbors. Don't
take yourself too seriously. and wherever
you 60 in the days journey take with you
hope, trust. love and happiness. In the
beauty cult smile Is the most necessary

Frowns Versus Smiles.

Notice that nine business women out OF
every ten force two deep frown lines be-
tween the eyebrows. This is done in a
mistaken effort to appear serious. per-
haps to give an impression Of deep
thought and mental gymnastics. AS a
matter of fact. it succeeds only in Great
ing an air of extreme unrest. No col-
yersation, business or social, is impress
sive unless accompanied by perfect har-
mony and poise. Frowns are not indica-
tive of great mentality. as all the world is
aware, brains are not dependable upon IA
cial contortions.
These frown lines often come from a
constant state of worry. They are the
outward and visible signs Of the trouble
borrowers, the people who carry an UNI
brella no matter how sunny the skies.
One girl of extraordinary beauty spoiled
the whole effect of her perfect contour
and coforing by frowning a deep. ugly
line just above the bridge of her nose. Nc
amount Of massage or electrical treatment
availed in the eradication Of this disfg-
urement. for no sooner would the line be.
gin to grow dim than she would return
to the old habit.

Modest Trimmings.

It seems hardly necessary to say that
the essential note to this years millinery
is the lightness OF its trimming. One
rich feather or a garland Of flowers suf-
fees for the most exigeante, and large
bow OF ribbon is enough for the hat that
belongs to the tailormade gown.
These are changed days. indeed, and it
is little wonder that the nilliners are up
In arms. for while the paucity OF orna-
ment does not seem to make for cheap
ness in the hat shops the ease with which
smart hat may be knocked into shape
at home certainly makes for economy.
BY the way, many Of the hats are trim
med at the back, which drags the hair in
most uncomfortable fashion that Is
tolerated only because It is new.
