VALUE OF ACQUAINTAN

If | knew you and you knew me
If both of us could clearly see,
And with an inner sight divine
The meaning of your heart and mine,
I'm sure that we would differ less
And clasp our hands in friendliness;
Our thoughts would pleasantly agree
If knew you and you knew me.

models copied after them-are being

America before long. The famous
Baskt hats are graceful and pictur-
esque rather than chic-in fact there
is more than a little of the theatrical
about them-though usually the pret-
ty woman can wear such effects sue
cessfully. The shapes themselves are
small, the feature being some sort of
flowing trimming that trails down
over the side and back of the brim
and lies on the shoulder. Sometimes
this trimming Is a feather; sometimes
a tasselled end of silk, sometimes

The Coqucttish Chin-Strap.
One thing that the plain woman
can wear as successfully as the pretty
woman, is the chin-strap--or bride

to be called In years gone by. There
are certain fashion features which
lend individuality and chic to a plain
face. One of them is the earring;
another is the chin-strap. Either of

and the chin-strap are never worn
at one and the same time. Their
styles do not agree at all; for one Is
dashing while the other Is quaint.
Earrings should never be donned with
a streamered hat, the intention of
which is youthful charm. The chin
strap suggests coquetry rather than
youth and unsophistication, but a pair
of dangling earrings can altogether
spoil it's graceful effect.
The shape of the hat decorated with
a chin-strap is notably beautiful. Only
a very exclusive model has this subtle
and graceful movement of brim and
exquisite poise on the head. This hat

If the girl loves best, sweet peas,
daisies, even the violets, symbolic of
sorrow, her favorite posies will proba-

mean youth and joy and love and the
fullness of life just at its opening.
Two charming commencement bas-

II commencement evening was
massed with the floral tributes
sent by admiring relatives and
friends of the youthful graduate. Bas-
kets, wreaths and huge bouquets, some
of them ranging up into the three

in the day, and there was more than
a gentle rivalry between the fair as

should prove greatest popularity by
reason Of expensive blossoms showered
upon her.
Gifts of. intrinsic value have taken
the place Of these lavish flower gifts of
late years-especially from relatives of
the girl graduate. Jewelry. carved
fans, sets of coveted books, the gold
watch, the much desired picture, or
perhaps a certain mahogany writing

and uncles-one pretty little graduate

the only sort possible within the
canons of good taste. 1t would be
pitiable fate indeed to graduate with

and usually in spite Of the gorgeous
array of lasting gifts at home, there
is also a goodly proportion Of more
or less costly flower offerings for the
sweet girl graduate, each offering tag

swain.

heads of pretty women in the restau-
rants. When the hat of tulle, net or
lace springs into fashion, it carries
all before it while its prestige endures;
but these hats are not apt to endure
for long-they are too easy to make.
and too inexpensive to get up. As
soon as their vogue among the fashion
ables is established and they begin to
appear in easily-copied models in the
milliners' windows, every woman with
an enterprising soul buys several
yards of tulle and twenty-five cent
wire frame and hies her home to pro-
duce a really creditable creation with
the easily manipulated materials.
So the malines hat may not last
long, but just now 1t is at the pinnacle
of favor Most of these hats--all the
more exclusive models in fact-show
quantities of malines pleated or
draped over shapes of hemp or milan
straw, hemp being the favorite for this
purpose. Usually the net or tulle frills
or puf1ings project an inch or two be-
yond the straw brim and give a very
soft becoming effect. Indeed most of
these straw shapes yelled with tulle,
are rather small, the projecting frills
adding the required size. There is no
smarter model on today's page than
the poke hat yelled with white malines
and trimmed with imitation wheat
which is enormously fashionable just
now. This dainty little hat-for one
cannot call the shape large-is of
white hemp, the white malines being
drawn softly down over the crown
and brim in loose pleats and turned
under the brim at the edge. Closely
shirred malines in a series of Tiny
tucks faces the brim in soft and be-
coming effect and a wide band of white
faille ribbon, with the spears of wheat,
adds n charming trimming around the
crown. This all-white hat is intended
for debutante. and only very young
woman with the fairest and freshest
skin could stand the test of such hat
successfully.
Shirred black malines hats are par
ticularly effective with white frocks
or with frocks of the new fowered
materials, and such hat is far more
becoming to the average woman than
the babyish white tulle model. Small
black hemp shapes are used for the
foundations of these airy black hats.
