OF the word.
A famous Partisan milliner is making efee-
tive use of dull silver gallon and large silver
tassels headed by bands of colored beads.
These gallon ornaments are introduced OH
picture hats and also on fur-trimmed toques
and they are as practical as they attractive.
A PICTURE HAT FOR THE YOUNG GIRL
A lovely picture hat for young girl was
made of black mirror velvet and trimmed with
a handsome silver gallon which had dull blue
beads worked on the heads of the tassels.
These little beads were in several shades of
blue and they were worked into an intricate de-
sign.
The tassels were large and they fell over the
upturned brim of the hat. l have seen purple
and green beads used in similar way; and
brown and gold beads may be applied TO cop
per gallon with the best results. A Paris mil
liner-whose branch establishment at Biarritz
has had great success this .autumn--is using
quantities of brocaded silks in his new milli-
merry models. This artist is specially fond OF
black silk brocaded in dull gold, silver or cop
per.
With this material rarely lovely hats and
toques are made and the material is so beau
tiful and decorative that very little trimming

visits. etc. was made Of black silk brocaded in
dull gold.
The designs which appeared on the sombre
surface were large and conventional and the
brim of the toque was bordered with skunk.
As trimming this model had double-faced
cocarde which had fur border and centre
formed by an immense button covered with
the border of the toque.
FOR THE PRETTY GIRL.
For pretty girl l strongly recommend
hat which was worn last week by clever Pa
risian actress at concert given for the benefit
of the Belgian refugees.
The hat itself, which was sailor shape with
narrow brim, was made of pale blue felt and
broad band of dull silver gallon circled the
crown, the ends being tied near the front in a

It was a fascinating little hat and one which
attracted general admiration.
FOR GIRLS IN THEIR TEENS.
The sensible attributes of the coat and frock
suits made for girls in their teens this winter
impress one most favorably. Coats that but
ably full are we'll calculated to act as protectors
in bad weather, and as it is very wise 10 guard
against chlls it is good plan to provide chill
drcn with raiment that is likely to help them
keep well.
Wool OF Persian colors is used as we'll as
narrow soutache, and in few cases a spray Of
quaint flowers is embroidered at one side, or
seine other touch of originality is substituted,
such as simulated belt and buckle made of
braid and gold thread No repetition OF this
need appear elsewhere in the
design, though the principal color employed
may be emphasized by the buttons of the
blouse or bodice.
Girls are wearing the primly buttoned cor
sage made OF serge or some other soft and fine
material just as much as their mothers are, but
the blouse is not deposed and is as popular as
ever Soft silks and tussore and fine fannels
are liked TO make them and many pretty little
old-fashoned stitchery ornaments deck them.
Long ago the elastic inset bodice was used
for children. The elastic was hidden in slot
al the top OF the bodice, and when the bodice
was put on the elastic kept the whole thing
neat and taut on the childish shoulders. That
method is being found acceptable once more
rot only for children's blouses or bodices but
for the easeful negligees that women are find
ing supremacy useful now.
