 Peace Jag

London, according to returned ia shion expert, is celebrating peace in gorgeous colors in clothes and every thing that pertains to personal adorn- ment Never were women more bril- 1iantly appareled. Gowns, hats, jew elry, fans, parasols, stockings show all the colors of the rainbow. The styles express the joyous reaction after war,

Small toques are copied from the Him doc turban and made of vartegated silks. Dresses are of every shade. Parasols are of gay silk and have elaIborately ornamented handles with trimmings of gold and silver.
 The jewels worn are as lively and as barbarically rich as the garments. Strings of beads, neck-chajns hung with pendants of serni- precious stones, finger rings with clusters of coIored gems, earrings and bracelets of gold and silver decorated with cloisonne enamel are among the popular styles. The beads are made from agate, quartz, turquoise. jade. jasper, smoked amber and lapislaZuH. The designs are copied from American Indian work and much of this sort of jewelry now 50 prevalent in London is imported from the United States"

Quite an attractive hat and one that was at the same time quite dressy was worn by a young girl the other day. The shape was a large droop of black Milan with a white glycerine ostrich feather curied about the crown. the under brim faced in two of the feathers that were laid perfectly flat against the straw, the flues so well caught that they did not droop down about the eyes.
