Why the veil? Merely masculine
minds will never figure out the answer
although they will have the rest of
time to ponder the question. Wells
were and are and will continue to be.
They are a strictly feminine institution
and whether they are worn to add
charm to the face or to call attention
to charms already there, or for some
other reason, these are mysteries only
the yelled lady can solve for us. But
they make opportunity for capricious
ornamentation and for variety-two
very good reasons for the loyalty with
which women favor them.
New face wells this summer are near
ly all woven with a large mesh the
heXagon-shaped mesh appears to be
best liked. Two examples of this par
icular weave are shown at the left of
the picture. They are circular and
float about the face. The veil at the
top INDUCES in the caprice of little and
big chenille dots and little pasted-on
velvet leaves, all of them dancing in
all the Maynard wandering breezes
they chance to meet. A few dots splat-
tered over a lovely chin, make us think
twice of its delicious curves. A silk
scroll wanders in the most aimless and
happy-go-lucky way over the veil be-
low, but it just misses the eyes and
just hits a very alluring pair of lips,
which goes to prove that a veil should
be taken seriously and adjusted with
care.
At the left appears the war bride"

The Isabella Color.

Once a Spanish princess vowed not
to change her lingerie till a certain
war was won, and as that took many
months, the result was that fashion
able Spanish ladies of the time, who
looked to this princess for leadership
In the matter of dress, soon came to
adopt a yellowish-brown sort Of linen
for their 'kerchiefs, fuckers, wimples
and other similar apparel. The prin-
cess name was Isabella, and this
fashionable shade was known as Isa-
bella color, and one occasionally hears
this name applied in Paris even to
this day to a sort of yellOwish- brown
that really does look like linen that
had been dedicated to a laundryless
existence. Although we have had
every shade of lingerie, we have not
yet had this color. The next thing to
1t, and something that surely wouldn't
appeal to all ~womankind, is the new
lingerie of nickel-gray that has been
put on the shelves of one or two OF
the exclusive women's shops. There

There are middies, smocks, sweaters
and coats for o~utdOorrg, that is, for all
sorts of sport and recreation wear.
And their comrades are skirts, bloom
ers or breeches, according to the sort
of service to be required Of them, For
tennis and golf, skirts that will wash
again and again and come out as fresh
and unfaded as when they were new,
have not been rivaled as yet by bloom
erS or breeches-fOr some other sports,
skirts are a thing of the past. With
these washable skirts plain blouses are
worn and swagger little coats made of
summer flannel, serge or other ma
terials-and, of course, sweater or
sweater coats.

has almost absorbed the attention of
those who specialize in designing sport
clothes. And it has been presented in
a variety Of new styles so that
when 1t is slipped on over a
skirt and blouse it tones up the cos
tune, lending it n~eatness. Sleeveless
coats of satin and velvet were among
these new ideas and have proved them
selves successful. Among new arrivals

the simple but swagger little coat
shown in the picture, need not fear
comparison with coats of more costly
goods-it has some points of advantage
yer them. 1t is made of summer fan
mel in any of the gay bright colors and
touched up with white in pearl buttons,
pique collar and arrowhead finish OF
pockets.
Just the skirt for this coat is shown
with it,. 1t is of heavy white pique
and fastens at the middle of the front
where a row of white pearl buttons fin
ishes the overlapped seam There
are any number of sport hats that viii
top off this practical and pretty out
fit. But its youthful wearer has chosen
a tam of white corduroy, one Of
the blue devil models that embodies
much dash. Its long tassel matches
the coat In color. Where something
more dignified is needed, for an older
woman, one of the cOconut braids in
white embroidered with yarn or silk
flowers against the crown, would make
a good choice, and there is the perennial
Panama with handsome band or scarf
that belongs to all summers.

them are simply hemmed. They are
probably destined to a short-llved pop
ularity-but they r very charming.
Wells should be tried on and selected
carefully as hats are, for some faces
look best under a plain, close mesh
without figures. Scrolls or dots or 9th
er figures in front of the y are
never pleasing; they look and are un-
comfortable.
