or dress to match The materials
used for such mantles Is once more
chiefly taffeta, black shot with vio-
let or blue being tho most popular
and very practical-color scheme
while reversible satins will continue
their original and well-descrved
vogue.
In millinery the two extremes are
represented, and there are no
medium shapes and sizcs-elther
happy or otherwise. Either the
brims are enormous or else they
curve quite closely to the head,
many of the hats having brims of
the most exaggerated width to
semi-low crowns, while tho drap-
cry of these soft straws is
feature of the toques. The straws
which are going to be used may he
noted in the following and correct
order Of precedence and popularity:
Picot pedal. Mantle, Italie, Tagal,
crinoline and Bois de Japon. There
is much talk of floral trimmings,
but at the moment only talk Para
disc, ospreys, "cross' aigrettes,
ostrich quills. wings and most
quantity conceived plumage mounts,
bci'< tied together with ribbons,
practically the sole-and certainly
the smart -adornment for all the
newest models.
AS to coloTs, make a note of
natter. geranium, amaranthe, cy-
clamcn, biscuit, beige, cerise, vieu1
blcu and apricot as those which
will be most used, both for cos.
tunes and headgear, and then hav-
ing obtained patterns Of one and
all and studied critically and
closely their effects upon your ilair
and skin, be in readiness TO make
a definite and successful choice q
little later.
New beltsf Yes, + have to men
tlon the attempt to decorate the stiff
patent leather girdles with tassels Of
MI shapes and lengths. Militarism
shows plainly in the little fads Of
tins spring. Tassels decorate every
thing except lingerie and handker-
chiefs. As you will notice in the
pictures even the new earrings show
the military trend. Earrings made
of gold tassels are particularly chic
inst now, and morning hat with
one or q. dozen hanging tassels is
part Of every smart Partisan g ward
robe.
And just one word about laces.
The new blouses are decorated but
slightly with lace, and only with
Irish or Venise, Valenciennes would
seem to be entirely out of fashion
this spring
And apropos of hat brim Innings,
black velvet Zone of the most be-
coming of ALL is still being fre-
duently and fashlonably used, though
it has rival now in the shot tat
fetas which pursues us in our every
article Of attire, while sometime es
too china silk will be used as a
foundation for yelling of chiffon
which softens its patterning and
colors into mere suggestion. Still
again crepe de chine has its own
particular and obvious advantages,
and 30, You see, there is plenty OF
variety, and consequently Of choice
in even this one detail.
Who. I wonder, will be SO lucky,
and so daring, as to be the first
wearer of the auaintest little capote
which takes something of 'cos
scuttle' curves about the wcarer Is
face. and by reason of the"n curves
brings q lining Of sake blue crepe
de chine into pretty contrast with
the hair. Outwardlv it is fashioncc
Of tho most supple burnt straw anc
of printed tussore, whose striking
device of flowers and Vandykec
stripes blends feige and blue, pini
and green, black and white color
jngs. SO elaborate, indeed. is th'
device and daring the color scheme
that no trimming is added or want
ed, but there is provided, as a com
panion for the hat Cor cap or what
ever you like to call it), an equal
ly curious bag which is for all th'
world like a diminutive bolster, o.
on the other hand gigantic copy
of one OF the old-fashioned knitted
purses.
For it is divided in the center b,
double handles formed Of gathere,
and corded shantung, this being tn
material chiefly used for its making
while blue crepe de chine lining jus
gives a hint Of the presence of tn
slit openings at either side, Will

duced at one end to keep the bal
from sagging together, and therefor
