WEAR BAND UNDER THE CHIN
New French Mourning Millinery
Shows This, and 1t Has Beer
Copied in Colors.

Some milliners who cooperate with
the dressmakers are trying to launch
the close-ftting bonnet with it's strings
beneath the chin.
Further impetus has been given to
this shape through the new fashions
in French mourning millinery which
have been brought to this country and
which have been found to be unusually
becoming. Women have had these
copied, not even emitting the strings
under the chin. To call this single
band Of folded material by the name
Of strings, however, is both incorrect
and misleading. 1t is not as old
fashioned in it's effect. as were the
strings that tied in a wide bow ex-
actly beneath the chin, but it is prob
ably lead toward them.
The mourning bonnets are really
square turbans, that are not high,
and are worn squarely on the head.
The veil. which is of silk net, is also
square and is placed completely over
the hat, falling in points as a hand.
kerchief, it's edges picoted. Beneath
the chin pass three folds of soft white
crepe, made into a straight band. end
ing in small fiat bow at the far
side.
Without the veil this hat is copied
in maroon velvet with a chin band
of chiffon to match There is fancy,
also, to have the veil, as well, in a
matching color, the edges finished in
picot. Lace is substituted when it is
dyed in the color of the hat, for there

deyising the ways and means whereby
he shall have company. Little Bobby
and the go-cart solve the problem.
The average man, if requested, is only
too pleased to wheel his young son out
for an airing. One crafty little mother
devised a cart which held three. While
the father took them out for an airing
the mother was relieved from the care
of them. He could not wheel the kid
dies so far, or so swiftly. 1t wasn't
so much of hardship for her to ac-
company the quartet. It's all in the
way in which a wife breaks husband
in. There are men who become rest
less sitting in the house all day she
is wise who puts on her things and
goes with him, when it's so that she
can. She who loves her ease too
much will find it a trial to be welded
to restless man, who is always on the
go. Men and women should make
study of each others likes and disl1kes
their natures and habits-durlne
courtship. The man who acquires the
habit of going out by himself may
be gradually weaned from home life.
Make an effort to be a good sport
whether you are so or no-to please
him.

ARE YOU A GOOD SPORT?

There is no good life but love-but love!
What else looks good, is some shade flung
from love;
Love gilds it, gives it worth. Be warned
by me
Never you cheat yourself one instant.
Love,
Give love, ask only love-and leave the
rest.
Many a girl has lover who she
knows would be utterly unsuited to her
as her husband. If he is of lively
turn of mind, fond of athletics, think
ing nothing of a five-mile walk, doting
on a baseball game, and regatta, en-
joying a rollicking good anecdote, he
has no business to take for a wife a
girl who complains bitterly if she has
to walk three blocks. If she does not
enjoy sports she has no sympathy for
those who can. Above all, man and
a wife she uld be companionable. If he
starts out for walk, it's pleasure for
him to have his wife along. If she's
physically unable to do the jaunt that's
another story. If she can stand it, it's
a good thing to provide herself with a
good pair of shoes, and to take the
tramp with him. She will get to know
him very much better than if she al
lows him to go his ways alone, picking
up whatever company he can find.
Men are sociable. They like someone
whom they can unbosom their thoughts
to. Wives often wonder how it is that
men whom they do not like at all get
such hold upon their husbands. The
solution of the problem is easy. Those
men are good sports. They can take
their hikes together, go fishing and
cunning. see the races, take a look in
at the boxing bouts. The man whose
wife is always ready to accompany
him. without demurring wherever he
decides he'd like to go. has no need to
choose a male friend, who is as good
a sport as himself. OF course. circum.
stances alter cases. After the babies
come to the home, she cannot be ex-
pected to indulge in the sports he
loves But she can do quite as well in

DOES KISSING MEAN LOVE?

One kiss from all others exalts me,
And sets all my pulses astir.
And burns on my lips and tormentS me-
IT'S the kiss | fain would give her.
One kiss for all others requites me
Although 1t is never to be,
And sWeetens my dreams and invites me:
IT'S the kiss that she dare not give me-
There are foolish maidens and there
are wise ones. The foolish maid be-
lieves all the fairy stories concerning
love which the jolly, handsome young
man who calls upon her tells her.
There is a class of young men VINO
make love without intentions. They
are not sincere, nor do they spend
much thought of how the girl may con-
slider their so-called devotion.
Such young men have not brains
enough to win the average girl by
earnest, manly conversational powers.
They resort to pleading for kisses, to
awaken her tenderness and win her
heart. Whatever liking they have for
the girl is sure to die out if the maiden
does not repulse their effrontery. The
girls whom such men kiss without be-
ing betrothed to they make up their
minds they will never lead to the al
tar.
Love is a curious problem. Even
while a free lance is most ardently
pleading for kisses he is hoping down
in his heart that the girl will have
modesty and self-will enough to refuse.
Men know that kisses do not awaken
love. They are more apt to disillusion-
ize the man at least. Men sigh for
the lips far beyond their reach. The
girl who. grants such caresses is no
longer a queen on d pedestal for him
to try to plead for.
After kisses have been exchanged,
when there is no proposal Of marriage,
like bee that has slipped the sweets
to new scenes and prettier girls. She
has no hold upon him; he has not
asked papa or mamma if he may pay
court to her or for her heart and
hand. She therefore cannot say him
may" if he breaks off without ado.
He can even fiirt with others and she
has not the right to call him to &C
count for it.
The kisses they have exchanged
have not given her a hold upon him.
On the contrary, she has lost the adj
miration he first entertained for her.
The roue and the free lance use all
sorts of arguments to Offset this rea-
soning of mine in my warning to girls.
| They know if there were no kissing
fewer girls would be lured along the
downward path.
The kiss should always mean mar
riage to follow. For it should be given
only as a sacred, solemn, sanction of
betrothal. 1t means much to the right
kind of lovers. The man loves and
respects her. He is too fearful Of los
| ing her to ask repetition of the kiss
until it is given at the altar. No mat
| ter how plain a girl may be, if her lips
are chaste from kissing she can have
her pick of the most desirable of low
ers She need never fear that she
will not be a wife. Allowing kissing
is the best way in the world for girl
to lose a good lover; after they have
lost in this way they will be sadder,

Or, take another very general New Years
resolution, that of getting up at a certain time
in the morning When the day dawns any rea-
son whatever is grasped at to evade this. The
weather is too cold, the alarm not loud enough
he is sure his watch is fast, he doesn't really
feel well enough to risk getting up earlier than
usual and, after ALL he asks himself, is there
any real reason why he should? A thousand-and-
one excuses the average individual will make to
himself rather than perform what he has designed
to do The world is full of wobblers of this kind
and the they wobble the weaker they be-
come
Another reason perhaps why the average reso
Iutionmakers so seldom achieve their purpose is
that they attempt too much. They make two
three, sometimes six resolutions at once, whereas
to carry through resolution successfully is

of perplexity among those who have
put their money in the high-crowned
hat. They were inaugurated by two
young brides. who appeared simulta-
neously with them as an evidence that
they were quite the correct thing.
They were fiat, simply trimmed and
were not tilted over one eye. They
showed a good deal of the ripping
hair. One was so small it looked like
a skull cap.
Now, what will you? No sooner
have the milliners, with the aid and
money of the majority of women,
flooded the continent with high
crowned position hats than those
who should launch a new fashion do
it in the form of tiny turbans. The
shops which exploit this new kind of
hat are good enough to place a rakish
arrangement of velvet across the back,
which looks like two long bean pods
blowing in the wind, and now and
then they are secured by an ornament
of cut steel, for cut steel, you know,
happens to be undergoing an unusual
degree of popularity.
Fortunately for the woman who has
an average face and who cannot in
dulge in extraordinary fashions. there
are turbans which are equally fashion
able with the small ones, but having
enough height and irregularity to be
becoming. The French are featuring
these turbans as substitutes for the
high-crowned coachman's hat to which
they gave all their attention in Sep
tember
The fashion for vivid colors on the
head has launched a mass of varie-
gated velvet hats to be worn with SOM
Der tailored suits on the street, and in
more subdued form with afternoon
gowns. The velvet in these turbans
is very supple and silky and is pulled
up and out into irregular folds. Right
in this manipulation rests the skill of
the milliner and the resultant beauty
of the hat.
characterization is allowed, but it
must be gently done. A spray of cut
steel fashioned in some fragile form
can be used on the crown to hold flow
ers and butterflies that have appeared
on the fiat, black velvet sailors, are
not used on the turbans. There are
aigrettes, but they do not cause sor-
row or annoyance from the onlooher
