SELECTING THE VEIL.

A ili-chosen veil. a soiled one,
"A veil that is fastened askew, or is
too tight or too loose, can destroy all
the beauties OF the hat and neatly ar
ranged hair that 1t covers while a really
pretty veil which is carefully put on will
give the final touch OF dainty smartness
to the wearer's appearance.
The most satisfactory veil for both wear
and good looks is fine silk one. Don't
buy the cheap limitations in stiffened cot
ton. The sticky dressing that is put on
soon comes off and the veil easily
crumples and tears. The silk wells can
be bought for about twice as much, but
will outwear three or four OF the cheaper
wells.
Besides the quality of a veil the pattern
and color must be chosen with care.
Large women with pronounced features
may wear wells with striking patterns
and look well. while the delicate features
of a smaller woman would be almost hid
den by veil Of the same design.
40 matter how pretty your veil may be
It will only mar your appearance if 1t Is
not put on properly. 1t is hard to tell
which is more unattractive. veil that is
too loose or one that is too tight. To
wear with the fashionable small hat buy
just enough yelling to go around the hat
and meet in the middle of the back brim.
allowing enough for drawing the ends
and do not buy any more. To ease the
veil over the face, pin a plait at each side
OF the crown. taking in the fullness above
the brim edge. On q large hat there will
be more fullness than on a narrow brim
hat
A veil needs frequent washing or chang
| ing. Any color silk veil Is easily washed
in alcohol.

Dressing Your Daughters

principal color will be blue. and when
YOU buy anything for her you will
bear that color scheme in mind, and
she will always have something with

Another economy for the mother of
growing girls is to buy some things out
of season. 1t Is well to visit the large
are selling out their winter and summer
stock. Good bargains in remnants and
broken lots can then be purchased very
much cheaper than in the first of the
season.
Muslin underwear for girls can be made
at home for much less than the cost of
readymade garments. The girl herself
could be easily taught to make them. I'm
less one pays a good price for these
things they are of inferior material and

gineham and light-colored dresses in the
shade unless you are testing the mate
rial. Lavender and green fade more
than other colors; dark blue holds its
color well. but light blue and pink need
careful handling.
It is we'll for a mother with several
little girls to dress to buy remnants of
dainty wash materials at the end Of the
summer to be made up the following
spring. Later in the season, when the
color has become faded, she can boil the
dresses in baking soda and water, and
they will come forth in snowy whiteness-

~LOTHES lie much nearer to char
acter than many of us suspect
and no mother does her full duty
by her children unless she makes their
clothing a matter of careful study and
scrupulous attention. To get the most
from the time and money expended
when buying clothes for her young
daughters mother should have
thorough knowledge Of the texture and
color Of materials.
Besides buying a color that is be-
coming to the girl a mother should
know how the action of sun and water
affects the different colors, as some
fade much more quickly than others.
1t is also well to study the combination
of colors. Never buy black for a little
girl 1t Is economy to have a principal
color scheme and stick to it no matter
how alluring a bargain may seem.
1t Is q great trial to buy a wardrobe
piecemeal. and besides the garments
do not always harmonic. This difficult
ty will be overcome II you will decide
on a color scheme. II navy blue is most
becoming to your daughter. settle on
that Buy gloves, feathers. velvets, etc,
to harmonic with that shade, and you
may have a blue handbag which will
look well with her new suit, the vel
vet on last seasons hat will work up
nicely on this seasons hat, and there
will be some dress accessories on hand
upon which you may depend. This does
not mean that she shall wear blue on
every occasion. but 1t means that the

THE NEW MUFFS.

n RIJFFS have several uses this season.
lv1 Not only will they be required to
complete a fur set. but fancy styles will
be extensively used with fur coats as
we'll as with cloth suits and with fur
trimmed wraps. When a mum Is made
wholly OF one kind OF fur the shape Is
either draped or cut In the new forms.
such as the kidney. the elongated. the
pillow or the ob!ong shapes. The smart
est muffs are made of two kinds of fur:
for instance. Hudson seal may be COM
bined with fisher. skunk. fox. leopard.
ermine. civet cat or mole. Other combi-
nations are ermine and mole. civet cat
and caracul. civet cat and skunk, and
various combinations of fox with other
furs.
Pile fabrics. such as caracul cloth.
pushes and fancy velours. are combined
with many kinds OF fur In the making OF
muffs to carry with suits, coats and even-
Ing wraps.
Attractive neckpieces and muffs are
made of colored furs. such as yellow. pink
in deep tone, blue in a grayish tone and
cZarina green. all of which harmonic
well with the new garments. Mole and
caracul in yellow. green and plum color
are very practical. Not only are colored
furs used. for sets, but they are also used
for trimmings on dressy gowns
Neckpieces are both In animal and In
stole effects. Mun Innings may match the
fur. or may be in a contrasting dark tone
or in soft pastel shades. Muffs may be
bought covered with satin, so that one
may buy broad strips OF fur or animal
scarfs and make the mum at home, or
may utilize small pieces OF fur on hand
in this way. There may be single s.rip
OF fur down the center with attractive
satin shirrings at the sides. Now is thu
time to use all stray pieces OF fur not
only on muffs and neckpieces, but on
sashes, gowns, waists. hats, scarfs, etc.

edged with ruff1es, and a sort of inverted
tunic to serve as girdle and the lower
part Of the bodice. To this Is fastened
in the middle of the back. a huge bow
and sash ends of bright green ribbon
| five or six inches wide.
Even when brigh- combinations OF
vivid colors are In fashion. as they are
For they will look hopelessly out OF
fashion next season, If there Is then
a rage for soft dull hues. There was
once young bride. who was married In
another era when bright color combina-
tons were the rule, who filled her trous-
seau with gowns made of wildly con-
trasting colors. But the next season
ushered in an era Of soft, harmonizing
tones. Gray was much worn. Dull
mauve and violet in subdued tones We're
worn. The little bride, who had started
out with a wardrobe much too large for
her simple social life. found her hands
filled with gay raiment that looked
gaudy and questionable She was forced
to go about in vivid blue suit with q
waist of cerise and blue or else one OF
yellow and green. And all her clothes
looked wrong. So be careful OF the vivid
contrasts Of colors. or you may find
yourself in the poor brides predicament
Amber beads are used to good purpose
on many Of the new gowns. For some
reasons some Of the manufacturers and
some of the dressmakers do not seem
to lave q keen eye for color; that Is to
say, they let color con- binat!ons enter into
gowns offered for sale which distress the
eye Of the beholder. One gown, for In
stance-unusually interesting in DESIGN
shows an olive green chiffon overbod'ce.
and a tunic of bright green plaided SILK.
The two green's literally swear at each
other.
Red is a color with which the design
ers seem to have much difficulty. Sew
eral gowns or waists of red In various
shades have been spoiled because beads
of some other shade OF red have been
used as trimming Some one has had
the good sense to use amber beads
clear amber. not the opaque sort-on
some of the new reds. A gown Of du-
vetyn in an interesting new shade has
amber buttons on 1t. The combination
of amber and red NAV seem impossible.
but 1t is good. The amber reflects deep.
fre-like lights and coiors, and brings out
the richness and warmth OF the red.
Red beads or buttons are very likely to
be just OH tint, and so spoil the best
thought-out color combination.

how much the prediction may be proved
to be correct. SO far as the colors OF
the principal materials of which gowns
and suits and coats are made are con-
|cerned, a touch of black will always be
used to give character to white. Many
of the white tulle ruchings have himy
blach silk thread worked over the hem
med edge of the tulle. A single length of
black velvet ribbon, very narrow. hangs
pendent, with some ornament on Its end
from the neck of some of the daintiest
white net blouses. Blackheaded hatpins
are used with all white hats. A touch or
two of black embroidery Is worked
into white satin slippers.

= Pet is increasingly used as tie sea-
nj son advances. Black leather bags
1 are now trimmed with small jet
heads embroidered in intricate designs IN
the leather. The band Of embroidery Is
often finished with dangling bead fringe.
Bags are made of jet beads strung to-
gether and mounted over colored silk. The
beads used in these bags are round ana
smooth and somewhat dull.
Net and chiffon are much used In COM
bination with fur for collars and nuns.
Huge muffs Of black or colored fox nave
ruffles about the lands or wide pleaungs
of cream or pure white net mounted over
chiffon. Sometimes the collars to wear
with these muffs are finished at the ends
with wide, fichu-like frills of tulle ana
chiffon.
Buckles are a somewhat neglected ar
ticle of trimming at present. But on some
of the newly imported frocks, which snow

Of the frill about the hand snugly In
place. One gown, made of deep blue
duvetyn, had sleeves that reached almost
to the neck at the shoulder. and ballooned
out at the elbows. They were shirred
In about the wrists. and ended IN little
frills over the hand, under which were
deep frills of fine white tulle. Silver
buckles were clamped through the duve-
tyn at each wrist.
Net-edged handkerchiefs are a novelty.
They are made. some of them. with ruf-
fed net about an inch wide about the
edge, and some of them with plain net
hem. The net is of a good quality, ana
therefore washes and wears well. Net
ruffies are not the only sort OF rumes
that are shown on handkerchief. Hand
lorch1ofe made of crepe de chine have
tiny, knife-pleated rufiles about the edges.
The crepe de inc used Is cream white,
of a heavy quality. and the pleated ruf-
fies are full. The handkerch1efs cost ABOUT
30 cents each.
On a white satin evening gown there Is
a tunic of white beads. strung in long
strings that reach from the waist almost
to the Rips, where they are iooped under
and held firmly to the skirt OF the gown.
that only when the wearer of the gown
walks do they separate to show the skirt
beneath.
One big velvet flower is the thing at
present. A huge purple veivet rose. Win
flower with four squared petals-either
one is striking and in good form. With
the increased use OF veivet movers tnelr
beauty has increased. Perhaps their price
worth every cent that is asked for them.
For they are carefully made, and they
are In good style and color.
Tulle sashes are made with bead-edged
ends. One, OF black and white tulle used
together. has q deep bead ornament on
the end. made Of beads of gray, green and
silver. The ornament ends In long bead
fringe. Sometimes pink and white, blue
and white. black and green and other

color combinations Of tulle are used, and
harmonizing bead ornaments are used
with them.
Black suede shoes. with French heels
and pointed toes, are embroidered with
silver beads across the toes and the lower
over tie upper instep and ankle, and are
laced neatly to the top with inch-Wide

in a smart little bow. These shoes make

Chenille fringe, formed of lengths of
white chenille cord about four inches long,
is used to border the ends of a wide White
ermine stole. Each string Of chenille is
tied at the dangling end with little black
silk, and the stole is riped with black
satin, SO in spite of the fact that no tails
are used with the ermine, the stole Is
black and white in color scheme.
A touch Of black is always In place TO
give point to a white garment. And no
matter how many predictions there may

of these girdles are six inches wide
