Although you have a stunning hat
A swagger suit and things like that,
If you're without veil, you see,
Without avail your style will be.
NEW YORK, Oct. S.-What matter
If this be vale Of tears II you are all
done up in veil OF lace? Who's go
ing TO know whether your face is
LEAKING or wearing a smile that won't
come OFF.
Salome was awfully careless about
discarding every one of her seven
wells at once, but the maid today is
much more circumspect and never
appears without at least one. This
headstrong dancer of old was sup
posed to have quite a collection Of
these flmy articles of apparel, in fact
quite a corner on the veil market.
but any fashionable damsel of 1915
turns up her nose behind one CT her
fifty-seven varieties and shifts dis
dainfully at poor old Sails paltry
seven.
When you take the veil, however.
wide black mesned ones with a deep
and intricate black lace border are
simply stunning and are worn gath
cred in closely 10 a tiny black turhan
like skull cap and then hare out
like a lamp shade or the full skirt of
a premier danseuse.
The question cf length is a vital
proposition with these new bouffapt
veils. The more elaborate lace ones
fall well down around the wearers'
shoulders and bust, while others with
but a narrow border fare out
piquantly just level with your chin.
Many of the smartest hats are made
with the veil already attache. II is
as vital an adjunct as a flower OF a
,eather.
Beside the lovely black lace ones
here are smart taupe. brown and
blue ones in a medium mesh with en-
)rOidered edges in conventional de-
signs like the Greek key or the Wall
Of Troy.
The borders for wells OF course Of
Ter wonderful opportunities for the
display of versatility and originality
among designers and already we have
fringe and fur playing the role Of
veil edging while metallic borders of
galoon or tlnsel are used on wells
through the meshes of which threads
of silver and gold CLEAN fitfully.
You are to be kidded a lot about
your top coat this Fall, for the top
piest top coats of them all are made
OF white kid. if you please. Amazing
ly startling they are, too, with Innings

orange. Others OF white oilcloth vie
with the kid effects and Innings are
more often in serge in these coats
than Of silk. Grey kid and tan are
also shown but naturally the White
creations are the newest and most
striking Of garments. Oh you kid
coat, you're bound to get milady's
goat if doting hubby doesn't come
through for one.
Leather and kid trimmings are very
good for frocks and blouses as well
as coats and buttons, and buttons and
bindings of brigh colored feathers
add up-to-date touches to many a Fall
and Winter toilette.
You simply can't get away from
fur, however, no matter II you &c
further and strip the animal of his
inner skin. Beaver landings on seal
brown satin or chiffon velvet is one
Of the loyeiest combinations Of the
season and you can't go far wrong
II you acquire a gown of either Of
these two materials beaver banded.
Skunk banding on ameythist satir
is charming. although skunk Is
mighty expensive this year. They are
offering as a substitute flying squirre
fur. but the effect is hardly a happ,
one. as the flying squirrel is soft ant
matted looking and undoubtedly
would show to advantage only on I
galloping horse orwell, say a fyinr
squirrel.
As matter Of fact and good tast,
an imitation fur banding is wors,
than none, but if you have the pric,
there's really nothing to beat the
band this season-provided it's a rea
fur band.
