ABOUT OUR Wells
Face Coverings Abandoned by
the Women Of Paris.
Curious Arrangement, Imitation Of the
"Ftu" Mask. Is Being Worn by
American Women.

The story comes from Paris that
women have abandoned the veil. They
are tired Of it. They have taken to
cartwheel hats and do not wish to de
stroy n outline Of the brim by the
folds of a face covering.
There are women over here, howev-
or. writes a fashion correspondent.
recently returned from Paris. who are
wearing the most curious veil America
has seen. 1t is attached to a turban;
t is as thick as the heaviest coarse
let a be woven, and it is drawn
light around the eyes and the top Of
he nose, leaving the neck and lower
part of the face bare. It is the best
imitation Of a masque that we have
had SO far, and it is intimated that il
was taken from the influenza mask
which was worn over the lower part
IF the face. One Of our " design
,rs of eccentricities has produced a
genuine influenza mask Of dyed lace
which is drawn upward over the chin
md nose to the back of the head. The
French one is more seductive and CO.
luettish.
In America we are addicted to wells.
We wear them at all seasons. whether
,r not we know how to adjust them.
The reason for their diminished fash
ION during the last year is due to the
var activities of the great mass of
women. First. Il veil takes q long
line to adjust ; 1t should be done well,
,r not at all; and. secondly, 1t Is not a
good addition to uniform caps. So the
;eil dropped out, except among a GER
ain segment of fashionables who
would feel ashamed Of their naked
less, as they say, if they went with
nut it. The hurry and furry or life
has not allowed much time for leisure
v dressing, and although the veil was
insisted Upon by the shops during the
influenza epidemic. the doctors thought
it was extremely harmful and injuri-
,us. They knew what the shops evil
lently did not know. that an influenza
mask must be washed every three
hours in a disinfectant. The ex-
IRENE danger in the veil rested in the
fact that it was not washed for days
ut a time, If ever
For those who wear the veil, the mil

Producing a trifle which has gained
much prestige. 1t is an arrow. an
aviator's wings, a dagger or the fieur-
ie-lis done in jewels. This catches
the veil at the extreme upper tilt of
the hat ia front.
It has been the jewel Of the war.
Women have turned their brooches into
these veil pins; they have had other
jewelry reset to possess the luxury OF
the moment. and they have bought
them in real or imitation stones. In

and In various color combinations,
these jaunty little sets.
One set consists of turban. with
just the top Of the crown of kolinsky.
while the lower part of the turban Is
swathed with velvet In q charming old
blue tone, the velvet terminating in a
large loop at the left side toward the
back. A large crushed band Of the
velvet edged at the top with a narrow
band Of the kolinsky forms the col
larette, which also terminates In a
large bow at the left side towards the
back. The muf is made of the blue
velvet and kOlinsky. A wide band Of
the fur forms the center. while the
fabric forms the sides one end of
which is drawn through q band of
the fur.
Another set consists Of a wrap
which after being snugly drnped about
the shoulders crosses In front and Is
tied In the back with a velvet ribbon.
The mum would be simple and round,
were 1t not for the velvet bow that
runs through it. with loops Of coquet-
fish twist. The hat Is oddly shaped
and fits the head closely; ut the top
are loops OF the velvet ribbon.
