Notes and Novelties
IF YOU CAN'T WEAR LONG EAR
 RINGS, WEAR HOOPS.
THERE Is a suggestion of smart

THERE is q suggestion of smart
 ness and knowingness about
 dangling earrings that often adds interest to a face not at all pretty. Many n plain woman is piquant and fascinating because she knows how to dress, and the piquant earring is a boon to the plain faced woman. When the complexion and eyes are very dark, or the features arc very irregu- lar pendant earrings are not always becoming; but such faces are well suited by the hoop earrings which somehow always add sauciness and coquetry the face. Take care that the hoops are not large enough to sug- gest gypsy rings, nor small enough to look like the rings little German mad chens wear in newly pierced ears. The hoops should measure quarters of an inch across and should not be made of flashing gold. They may be set with jet, corral pearls or rhine stones.

They button rows of buttons with buttonhooks. lace up ribbons through rows of eye lets, fasten small buttonholes over snugly fitting buttons and tie broad and narrow ribbons into smart bows. Very shortly the difficulties presented by boot buttons, petticoat buttons, laced midday blouses and hair bows are no difficulties at all and the little girl or boy has mastered the art of self-attlring which so vastly helps busy mother.

This style of hairdressing is youthful and becoming, while the psyche knot at the crown of the head often makes the face sophisticated and even se- we're. Quantities of soft. fluffy hair are required to make the new high coiffure; but the hair is wound in big, soft coils or thick. soft braids, and puffs are absolutely nil from fash ionable standpoint. The soft coils or braids are pinned securely in place for all their charming effect of loose ness and big shell pins, thrust into the hair, give the effect of holding the loose coffure in place. The sugges- ton to the observer is, that if the big shell pins were drawn out the lovely coils of waving hair would tumble down over the shoulders; but of course the structure is far too care
