Wells LOOSE AND FLOWING
Both Circular and Draped Shapes Pop.
uar-Pretty Idea Is to Match the
Hat in Tint.

Loose, flowing wells are being worn.
Some are made circular, while others
are draped. The circular veil with
round opening in the center which fits
over the crown of the hat, is well
liked. The lacy designs with woven
scroll patterns are especially attrac-
tive. Some of these wells are gath
cred onto an elastic band, allowing
it to be adjusted over the crown OF
the hat Some hang in straight lines
to the shoulders, while others are fin
ished with ruche or band, which
may be caught around the throat.
There is a marked tendency toward
the use of colored wells. The extern
sive use of color in millinery affords
the welldressed woman an oppor-
tunity to wear a veil to match the
color of her hat Brown, navy blue,
taupe and plum or wistaria are all
seen in colors which match perfectly
those shown in straws and silks. All
black and black-and-white wells are
smart.

1t has been figured out by junkman

900 a year in cotton wastage alone,
after the last shred of the fiber has
been saved that can be. And this is
how:
Wrapped in jute bagging and strapped

of these bales went to American mills
Actually there was spun into cloth and
yarn the equivalent of 4801, $50 bales,
because of Is per cent loss. This is di.
vided into two classes, raw material
waste and manufacturing waste. The
first counts the bagging and iron
straps, included in the weight, the
shrinkage and three pounds torn off
in transit for samples. The second in.
cludes flying cotton lint, cotton dam
aged in processing and the quantity
that remains that is not spinnable,
The latter is one of the new savings
now. Suppose a two-inch length is
required; some is not that long. This
goes for a coarser yarn to another
mill, and the residue there goes to
still another for even coarser products,
and in the step-down from mill to mill
the final re5iduum lands in a factory
making wicking, mop yarns, etc,
Actually, though there is Is per
cent theoretical waste in bale of cot
ton, the total loss is reduced to a mini
mum and only per cent goes to the
Junk dealer to sort out and sell In all
the processes through which a bale

The thrush of silk net in a new pat
tern has caused an immense amount of
satin to be ordered by the dressmak-
ers to be used as a foundation and
probably as bodice. The majority
has not realized that net gowns ought
to be ultrafashionable for the late
spring and summer. The new net is
coarser than what we have been wear
ing, and it has a broken surface. It
has a square or round mesh, a polka
dot large or small, thin, trailing
vine design or a stripe. Possibly, all
these new nets could be classed un.
der the head of point d'esprit.
One of the best known designs is
called a RebouK net, and other weaves
are so coarse that at first glance they
would not appear suitable for eve
ming frocks. Yet, If one does not like
them for formal gowns, they are ad-
mirable for afternoon frocks, over the
thinnest silk lining.
A quarter of century ago, these
nets in black and white were the
choice for afternoon frocks with slight
ly low necks and elbow sleeves; and
as far as one can see, the wheel will
turn back 25 years and these gowns
will again be in fashion.
One of the latest of the afternoon
frocks, in blue and white striped silk,
shown in the illustration, has won
many friends among eastern women of
fashion.
