sART0RIAL HINTS.
By Elizabeth Lee.

Aren't the spring coats made up from
taneta for small girls wear perfectly
charming? In my opinion every mother
OF = young daughter should provide one
Of these smart looking little wraps, not
only on account Of their beauty. but also
for their general utility.
A taffeta coat will provide all the
necessary warmth for a child from seven
years upward. for at this age children do
not feel the cold as do those younger and
often times the wrap Of serge or other
WOODEN goods 10 found to be too warm
the thing. not only for spring wear, but
also oil through the summer.
The changeable silks are, Of course, the
more attractive. A dark. but not navy
blue. shot with black 10 very pretty, and
80 IL the combination Of black and golden
brown. The result IL q beautiful
bronze. It goes without saying dark col
lars will be more practical than the light
er ones. az we'll as in better taste.
The box coat seems to be favored, al
though there are quite sprinkling of
fussy styles The palmer model is, how
ever. the smarter. depending upon hand
some buttons as trimming. Crystal
buttons are used upon the chfldren's
coats az well as upon their mothers, but
when q box style is chosen I like the
large ebony and ivory buttons as finish.
With q good pattern coat may be
safely attempted by the home dressmak-
er. with a saving Of money. Three yards
OF taffeta will be ample, as 1t Is thirty
six inches wide.
A natty looking, but less severe style, Is
semi-fltting. the neck finished with a
shawl collar edged with ruching OF
picked-out taffeta.
This collar closes at the waist line with
q pretty frog. Turn-back cuffs trimmed
with ruching finish the coat sleeves.
This Is q pretty model for the slender
child.
Then there is another shape which Will
appeal to mothers VINO like something a
little uncommon for their daughters.
The silk is built into a kind of blouse
effect above the waist line. This is join
ed to a skirt under a smart belt OF
suede or patent leather. The coat closes
down the left side and is finished with
rolling collar and cuffs Of striped silk,
white and q color which harmonizes with
the shade Of the silk chosen for the
wrap Little bows drawn through buckles
matching the belt decorate the closing
above the waist line only.

Lace in Evening Dress.

The increasing fashion Of having the
two sides Of the bodice unlike has en-
couraged more than ever the use OF lace
On one such In mignonette green char
meuse there is q lace tunic arranged In
peplum points and carried UP from the
right to the left shoulder. forming the
whole Of that side Of the bodice. as wei
as the long close-fitting sleeve. The Other
side Is in the mignonette charmeuse
made with long sleeve.
The front fastens down with diamond
buttons on the lace, thus forming
shape. The whole Of the outline OF the
lace IL bordered with emerald green vel
vet arranged in q very narrow line. The
belt also is emerald green velvet. The
great art In arranging the differentiated
bodice Is to give continuity to the lace
composing one side, otherwise 1t has what
has been called by a graphic writer

LITTLE JOURNEYS INTO
THE FASHION LAND

A certain Quatutness charActerizes many
Of tho revived styles OF present-day
gowns, and II these are worn by the
right people they are picturesque and
pretty. We would not hear 50 much
about the grotesque fashions IL they were
properly applied. A very slim woman
generally IL inclined to such severity OF
outline as accentuatss thinness, whereas
the plump and round person leans to an
overabundance Of frills and hounces.
But this season there is 30 much variety
that it Ii possible we may ind that women
select suitable styles. It must be remem-
bered that stripes give height, while frills
gowns, which need q great deal Of trim
slight figures.
ma violets and OF tiny pink rosebuds are
tho newest form Of headgear seen IN
Paris with tailor suits. These are very
small and close fitting. with wings IN
shades to tone with them. and they have
q new and jaunty appearance. One can
not tell whether fuchsias will meet with
success as hat trimmings: the natural
flower is delightful. but there Ii some
thing about the droop and grace OF this
old fashioned floral emblem which rem
ders 1t almost inimitable. although the
colorings are lovely and will reproduce
to blend with purple straw hats.
The fuchsia Is the newest crown decora-
ton used this season for wall papers. ana
here 1t il most effective.
Another novel and striking hat adorn-
ment is q wreath Of water lilies made OF
white satin with yellow silk centers- A
rather large picture hat carries this TRIM
ming best.
Al Fascinating little RUNE Of taffetas and
feathers has Just appeared at q season
able time. Two rows of feathers edge
the silk, which Is gathered up close
round the neck and fastened In careless
bow on one side. This Ia quito useful
little accessory to the taffeta gown OF
the moment.

oLD-TIME REMEDY
DARkENS THE HAIR
Gives Color, Luster to Faded
and Gray Hair-Dandruff
Quickly Removed.

For generations Sage and
Sulphur have been used for hair
and scalp troubles. Almost
every one knows the value of
such a combination for keeping
the hair a good even color, for
curing dandruff, itching scalp
and falling hair, and for pro-
noting the growth of the hair.
Years ago the only way to get
a Hair Tonic of this kind was
to make it in the home, which
was troublesome and not always
satisfactory. Nowadays, almost
any up-to-date druggist can sup
ply his patrons with a ready-to-
use product, skillfully prepared
in perfectly equipped labora-
tories.
An ideal preparation of this
sort is Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Hair Remedy, in which
Sage and Sulphur are combined
with other valuable remedies
for scalp troubles and thin,
weak hair that is losing its color
or coming out. After using this
remedy for a few days, you will
notice the color gradually COM
ing back, your scalp will feel
better, the dandruff will soon be
gone, and in less than a months
time there will be . wonderful
difference in, your hair.
Don't neglect your hair it it 10
full of dandruf, losing its color
or coming out. Get fifty-eent
bottle of Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur from your druggist, and
see what few days treatment
will do for you. All druggists
sell it, under guarantee that the
money will be refunded If the
remedy Is not exactly as repre-
sented. Agent, James O'Don-
nell.
