AMONG NEW Wells AND HATS
Close Face Covering Is Invariably
Worn by Majority OF Well
Dressed American Womens

Volumes could be written about the
veil of the well-dressed American wom-
an Of today. Without the invariable
close veil she never ventures abroad
in the daylight hours. One sees scarce
ly three smart flowing veils-if, of
course, one excerpts the motor veil
during the entire season. All the pos
sibilities of veil are only realized by
one who has experimental with vari-
GUS kinds and colors. It was to the
veil that accompanied it that might be
ascribed much of the effectiveness Of
the little hat of henna-brown satin
recently seen, says Vogue. A wisp Of
darker brown feathers shot almost d.
rectly back from the left side Of the
brlm, and dark-brown tracery veil
gave wonderful tints to the wearer's
delicately bronzed skin. A sable cape
thrown over the shoulders completed
this harmony Of warm brown, -
There is a distinct predominance of
small hats in the smart autumn MILL
merry. Satin, velvet and beaver are
among the most popular materials, and
these assume soft dark tones, such as
dull blue, gray, taupe and brown. The
new henna brown, which is shade bor-
derlng on terra Gotta, while consider
ably in evidence in autumn costumes,
has not to any important degree in
vaded the field Of millinery.

WHEN ONE SITS UP IN BED
Knitted Nightingale Most Useful Gar
ment When III or Reading
in Bed.

The knitted nightingale Is one of
the most useful garments sick per-
son can possess, and it is certainly &C
ceptable to anyone who likes to read in
bed. Moreover, it is very easy to make
and goes quickly. ANY light-colored
wool Is nice for it, especially the silk
and wool mixtures that can be pur-
chased in pink, blue and lavender, or.
better yet, the fluffed cotton that looks
like wool.
THE scarf itself it straight, with a
puzzled cuff of 40 stitches done on very
thin needles for two inches, and then
increased to about 60 stitches on very
large needles, and continued until the
whole measures somewhere between
30 and 60 inches, depending on the
length-of the arms of the person for
whom 1t is intended. 1t usually takes
about four balls of wool for one. When
1t Is finished the cuffs are sewed up
and part Of one edge is turned back
with ribbon through to make collar,
and give something to fasten it to-
gether. The whole is something like
a big shawl, with place at each end
for the arms, and 1t surely Is joy to
the person in bed who doesn't want to
catch cold and who hates to keep the
urms under the cover.

much draped and the other not at all.
A charming frock is of rose geor-
gette and is sashed with brown velvet.
Rows of military braid form a high
