Hats Accompany Formal Costumes
with almost every costume except
the house frock for mornings and the
dance frock for evenings, the hat is
an indispensable feature. Hats are
worn at luncheons and at afternoon
bridge affairs even when the coat Is
left in a dressing room. Hats accom-
pany restaurant dinner costumes ex-

In onepiece, asplendid wreath of ostrich
that curls all around the hat covering
the brim and dropping over its edge,
while one end of the ostrich garland
drops to the shoulder behind the right
ear. 1t takes pretty face to carry off
a hat like that; though most women
probably think they would be pretty
enough II they could wear such a won
derful chapeau.
Feathers Posed In Odd Ways
Another hat shown today has twin
ostrich plumes, one dropping over
each side of the hat a roll brlm sailor
shape of black hatter's plush. The
feathers are In a soft fawn shade and
one curls toward the front while the
other has a backward slant making
soft background for the head at
the left side. There are numberless
ways OF arranging feathers and the
more daring the arrangement the
smarter the line Of the hat. A Lewis
model OF black velvet. rather high
crowned and with a brim turning
sharply upward at one side has two
full, rich ostrich tips in jade green;
one sprawling across the top of the
crown and the other tumblng over
the turned-up brim to touch the hair.
An Odette model, small and dainty

Il X Around the City II Il

TT was fOggy dusk outside, but
the little cafe was cheerful with
holly tables and red-cap-
ped lights. 1t may have been the
shining cheerfulness that encouraged
a man to enter and whisper to a
pretty young waitress who was stand
ing near the door. He was an old
man. and there was something in his
manner to create the impression that
he was asking a favor. The girl d.
rected him to the proprietor in the
next room, and as the man passed
through the arch a woman at one Of
the tables beckoned her over.
Il didn't hear word he said, but
wasn't he asking for help?"
She had guessed right the very first
time. The man had said he was with
out money and wanted to know IL he
could have cup Of coffee.
Poor fellow! Will you please tell
the proprietor that 1 will be glad to
pay for his dinner"
The girl smiled, with a cheerful
ness that matched the Christmassy

Then. as you help so many. won't
you let me pay for this poor soul?"
The girl refused and that ended the
incident. AS the old man passed
through the arch, on his way to the
door. carrying with him a bag, that
bulged promise of a breakfast in the
morning, another woman at another
table extended her hand toward him
with a quiet kindness that was
really beautiful, and he took the coin
with bow that would have done
credit to the diplomatic corps.
All Of which is very small thing
to tell about, except that it helps in a
way to answer the question that sta
