Pretty and Fashionable
Semi-PreCi0uS Stones

Women should rejoice in the fact that
the seni-precious stones are considered
the most fashionable just now. not only
on account of the cost, but also for the
reason that this kind of jeweIry is in
nine cases out of ten much more be-
coming to the wearer than the precious
stones.
Among the less expensive jewels found
becoming to the average brunette are am
Der and coral. The former has the eff
feet of whitening the skin. is suited
to those inclined to sallowness. A deep
coral will do the same service. while
a string of pale pink coral beads around
the neck of fair brunette will often
suit her better than the most costly orna-

Less False Hair Is Worn.

Wherever 1t was the faSnlon TO nave d
bulge in the couture. and it seems that
all fashion is merely question of bulges
here and there, false hair was used to
obtain it, Puff upon braid rat upon roll,
bangs on comb. curls on haipin, coro-
nets on the crown, any and all of these
devices were used to adorn the head.
Now false hair is a good thing in itself.
A little of 1t is an immense help TO a
woman's charm. 1t can be used to cover
a defect and to emphasize a virtue. but
1t should be as costly as the purse can
buy. and cared for daily with brush. ben
zine and brlliantine-tO say nothing OF

So at last fashion has done what all the
preachers on hygiene and cleanliness
failed to do. 1t has banished from the
heads of women these grotesque mounds

is bought and not self-groWn, but spar

Colnures are fuctuating. They are
high today and low tomorrow. First
the French influence is felt. then the
English, and the American woman
jumps from one to the other with
startling rapidity.
In mass the American woman never
has accepted the so-called French style
with it's utter absence of bulge any
where. with it's simple surface ripping
in large waves from brow to nape of
neck and from ear to ear. 1t has been
difficult to tell how she wore her hair
in the streets. or if she wore any for
the turban of today is Arabic in its
power of concealment. 1t is probable
that she discarded artificial hair two
years ago. for it would be difficult to
squeeze it into the small enveloping
crowns OF today's hats.
1t is to her credit that she did not
take to the side parting with ardent
enthusiasm: the American face is not
chiseled for such a line. 1t needs a
softness. fluffiness and an irregular line
above the brow. There are few eX
ampleS over here among American Wom
en- where the flattened front and the
side part have been becoming that 1T
should serve as a warning to all those
who have not yet tried 1T. This style
mas one supreme advantage. 1T allows
the discard Of the false roll and pom
padOur. If 1T succeeds in banishing both
of these in their odiouS and extreme
fashion it will have done good service.
In America we love to eXaggerate.
and this was the cause of the unhy

six years. They were positively dis
gushing. consisting as they did in many
cases of the cheapest brand Of false
hair, piled in unkempt masses, until

"Thc windows of the one room
were kept constantly down from the

ordinary desks were removed and
replaced with chair desks which could
easily be moved by the pupils them
selves to clear the floor space for
