DY way of departing from the close
- to-the-head hairdress some of our
modern goddesses have dared to com
bine the old classic Psyche knot with
a strictly twentieth century arrange
ment of the front hair. An example
is pictured here, and the effect is
rather pretty. It is better from the
front than from the sides, because in
the modern hair dress the brow is
more or less covered. The line is not
so good, therefore. as in the classic
model.
The Greeks covered the ears Cor
most of them), but did not bring the
hair out over the cheek as in the pres
emit mode. A prominent actress, who
gives much thought to dress, is respon-
sible for this mixture of styles. Many
centuries apart, the ideas are not too
incongruous, and the resulting couture
has found a number of devotees.
The arrangement is simple enough

fringe across the forehead. and Stop

er another in single row. This ar
rangement brings the veil into the
nape of the neck.
Some families possess wedding wells
of beautiful lace, and such veil must
grow dearer with added associations
as time goes on. The wedding veil
of lace should be kept and, whether
the fashion be for long or short wells,
worn by the brides in the family.
Wedding dresses and wells are always
to be conservative in design, abiding
the whims of fashion. That is, the
regulation gown has long sleeves, the
neck is covered, and the gown is cut
in the Princess style. Round necks
are admissible, but not low necks.
Lace sleeves, and long gloves also. 1t
is the business of the designer or
dressmaker to bear in mind the estab-
lished order of things in making wed
ding apparel and to add little present.

the regulation gown.
The cap drapery of the veil is most
popular just now, because caps of all
sorts are greatly favored. 1t is best
to arrange it on a circlet of wire be-
cause it will stay in place on the head
and not become easily disarranged

All the back hair is combed bach
and tied at the back below the crown.
1t is pulled out to lie loosely at the
top of the head and nape of the neck.
The hair is then rolled loosely, coiled
in small coil and pinned with a
few wire pins. The center of the coil
is pulled out into the projecting knot,
as shown in the picture, and add
tional pins placed to hold it firmly.
The new coiffures are still in the ex-
perimental stage. The high hairdress
and the colonial styles are bidding for
popular favor. We know that changes
are coming because new millinery
makes them necessary. We may be
fairly certain that high styles will be
worn, and perfectly certain that colt
fuEes are not to be as plain as they
have been. But no one mode has
seized the popular fancy as yet. There
fore actresses and others are free to
experiment and mix up the styles Of
Egypt with those Of the Moqui Indians
If they wish, at their own sweet will.
No centuries or peoples are too remote
to be without the pale of our interest
when it comes to getting ideas for new
styles.

BRIDAL Wells
IN FAVOR TODAY

bridal wells of tulle are never out
- of fashion, but sometimes they
share honors with wells of lace or net
bordered with lace. The liking for a
cap drapery on the head has rather
favored the lace-bordered veil, al
though the tulle veil is draped cap
fashion also.
Lace wells are not always long;
those of a yard and half, falling
above the knees at the side are liked,
especially when the gown is lace
trimmed.
The cap drapery admits of consid.
cradle variety in arrangement The
fri1l, formed by lace edge, may be OF
even fullness all around and fall over
the forehead, or it may be placed at
each side and the frill turned back
from the forehead, or it may be ar.

said we would be married before the
year was out. But to make more sure,
I boiled an egg hard, took out the
yoIk and filed the egg up with salt,
and when 1 went to bed ate it, shell
and all, without speaking or drinking
after it, and this was also to have eff
feet with the bay leaves. We also
wrote our love names upon bits of pa
per and rolled them up in clay and put
them into water. and the first that
rose was to be our valentine Would

Children Chanted Songs.
This quaint letter shows how the
idea Of the powers of st. Vanentine
were appreciated by the maidens of
that time. 1t was customary in the
olden times for maidens to hang their
shoes outside the window on the eve
of st. Vanentine's day in order that
their love affairs should prosper, al
though the explanation of this belief
is not given. Children also went about
chanting songs about Valentine and
collecting coins as their valentines.
The valentine gifts of those days
were sometimes very costly, including
jewels, rings, brooches, sllken sashes,
or belts with begemmed buckles, silk
gloves with rich embroidery, and other
expensive presents which man might
make to his valentine"
st. Valentines day was alluded to
by Shakespeare and Chaucer, and one
of the earliest known writer's of valen.
tines was Charles, duke of Orleans.
Drayton, a poet of Shakespeare's time.
also wrote charming verses along this
theme.
What connection the martyred Bishop
Valentine has to do with these Gus
toms, whose ruler seems to be Cupid,
would puzzle the saint himself. The
death of the good bishop, which &C.
CURED in the third century, was a
most cruel one. He was first beaten
with clubs and then beheaded. Thus
it seems paradoxical that the com
memoration of him should be observed
in the gayest of fashions, and always
in conjunction with the pranks of the
little god of love.
Many learned historians have given
considerable time and investigation to
the origin of the romantic observance
of st. Valentines day, but the secret
is still a secret-the real mystery is
still unsolved.

Canoes in Favor,

Though the idea of using canoes as
brooches and buckles for modern at
tire came to the fore some little while
ago, the fashion is still very much in
evidence, all sorts of canoes being in
request for hat trimmings and blouse
buckles. Many people, having hunted
up their old ones, relics of past gen
Grafton, are having them reset in fine
gold or silver mountings of a much
lighter pattern than the rather clumsy
originals. Even earrings are made OF
very small canoes, mounted on thin
gold chains, and very pretty they are,

looking exceedingly well for day wear.
