Neckwear Novelty
and It's Raison D'Etre

Queens once enjoyed the distinction of
getting the styles in women's neckwear
and judging from some Of the specimens
preserved by the process of art, 1t would
seem they sought to defeat the guillotlne
or the ak.
Now that each woman ls a queen by
divine right of charm, tradition fails to
bind US to the rufts and uncomfortable
neckfixngs that framed the royal visage.
Mrs. Vernon Castle, whose Kingdom
covers Terpslchorean territory, intro
duced-revived rather-the trig little col
lar and Windsor tie and the renais-
sance is worthy the attention of those
who can wear it with equally pleasing
effect.
1t is chic It is launderable. but have
care, my lady, as every female OF the
species" is not Mrs Castle and cannot
wear this simple but trying little neck
rigging.
Be not dlsmayed because there are col
lars, collars and still more collars of all
sorts and conditions; your style Is OBJ
tainable no matter whether nature or
art fits you for its requirements
The Exposition collar is new, dlgnified
and promises to become popular for its
own names sake.
Dainty bits of organdie in monotones,
Immaculate white or combined with deli
and styles. Organdies are very sheer,
still there's a severity that marks them
as belonging to the outfit of the most
conservative as well as the more ornate
Quitting of womankind.
Time-honored laces made into neck ac-
cessories, are, like Gods poor always
with us, and may they remain until the
end OF time, for what is there about the
eternal feminine that stamps the qulntes-
sence of refinement more surely than
laces handed down from generation to
generation like the sins of the fathers?
Brides revel in the thought of bit of
lace from William the Conqueror Cor the
conquered for that matter), and a mere
touch at the throat serves as n credential,
just as surely as the coat of arms-real
or spurious.
Military neckwear owes It's popularity
to present-day belligerency, not so much
that lovely woman approves the cause,
but her vanity admires the effect.
"Vanita vantatas" is all very we'll as
an excuse for most of women's move
ments. but when 1t comes to reasons for
this seasons neckwear, reasons are
plentiful as blackberries" and every sea-
son is met with a becoming bit of neck
wear, each vying with another in beauty,
charm and distinctive feature.

Parasols, Spring 1915

The spring of 1915 bids fair to excel its
predecessors in the showing of strikingly
attractive and novel parasol shapes and
designs.
An Increasing popular shape known as
the Nippon has incurved rib ends in con-
trast to vogue of last year on which
the rib ends curved outward
The Nippon is also a very attractive
parasol when closed. Shirring is still In
big demand as is shown in La Plelse,
shirred over all-La Vivian shirred half
and La Tontour shirred top and bottom
and plain centre.
There are also shown the Ripple and
the Flapper. which harmonize with mi
lady's tucks and rufhes. And the Nor
ningstar for the tailored lady.
The Toxic is an extreme Japanese
shape and La Petite is a modified
Japanese shape that bids fair to remain
a favortte. Sand color. Belgium blue, bat
tleship gray and old rose are the colors In
demand. while black and white combina-
tons and the popular greens have a
strong following. JOHN NJ. KING.

Fashion Hints

Side plaits are seen on most of the
dresses adapted from mid-Victorian mod
els. Borders, with contrasting effects in
braiding or made in varying widths, are
worn.
Hip yokes, fashions favorites of sew
eral years ago, are being resurrected as
long lost friends They are very attrac-
tive when properly renovated.
A cloth skirt, with a striped faille or
taffeta blouse, was used as the founda-
tion of very striking gown seen re-
Gently An underbouse of sheer white
muslin was used to make the lining for
the little jacket and the white sleeves
gave a pleaslngly fresh touch. The skirt
was perfectly plain. just about four yards
around the bottom and gored at the top.

Fashion Novelties

The first warm day of spring brought
out all that wGs new In gowns and hats
in Chestnut street. One military waist
seen recently was made entirely of white
volle. Red buttons were used to close it
down the front. A taffeta girdle OF dull
costume.
This blouse was worn with navy blue
tailored suit. and natty hat OF white
kid finished the costume. Its severity
of line and the fineness of the material
in the suit-a gabardine of the best quail
ity-attracted much attention.
Eton styles are seen In both suits and
gowns. They are even shown to some
extent in the newer blouses although
these are not common by any means
Tassels. epaulettes and braldings are
used on a good many OF the new blouses

Smart Hairdressing

Hairdressing this spring has undergone
quite distinctive change. showing three
different styles-high, three-quarter and
low effects, and each style has its own
individual attractiveness. Puffs, curls or
small braids may be worn with the most
becoming effect in any of these beautiful
designs. The masculine style of decided
parts so popular for a time is now being
replaced by softer and more becoming
arrangement than that of the trans
formation effect with a slight expression
OF a part on the side.
These transformations, so becoming to
all faces, are decidedly natural in ap-
pearance. and are achieving great popu-
larity, for they defy detection. No
woman who is interested in the appear
ance of her hair, especially during the
warm months-whether at home or at
the shore-should be without one. They
are naturally curly. easy to arrange and
are being shown In all the up-to-date
shops. The marcel wave still continues
in favor as a boon to those who are not
favored with curly locks.

a 50-cent bottle of "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound" which darkens
the hair so naturally, so evenly, that

You just dampen sponge or soft

gives it an appearance of abundance
