WHAT WE WEAR

Light emerald green is a gen.
eral favorite for hat trimmings.
For heavy coats and wraps
smoked pearl, rubber, bone, silk
passementerie, or crochet with a
frog to match is the proper
fastening.
Fine Maine lace is a favorite
for handsome evening and after

In jewelry beryle Is much in
favor at present, and the fashion
some women affect by wearing q
single uncut ruby, emerald, OF
sapphire is much admired.
Dresses show slips of pale blue,
yellow, pink or lavender, with
embroideries and ribbon touches
to match in the trimming.
For spring wear with tailored
suits of whipcords, mohair and
serge, the one button pique or
cape glove in tan or gray shades
obtains.
Feathers are favored beyond
all other trimmings for the dress
hat.
All the old favorites, such as
empire green, kings blue, corona
tionred, geranium and sulphur,
appear in the trimmings of the
accessories of the new garments.
Cotton .ratine is having a great
vogue for misses suits, with
crystal or ball ivory buttons for
trimming, and is one of the new
tub materials now in demand for
shirtwaists.
The great rage for shot taffetas
finds its most satisfactory devel-
opment for misses hats, because
1t requires bright, youthful COM
plexions to offset it.
