Hoped, also the upper edge of the tiny
pocket. And please remember that
the pocket of a frivolous little apron
like this must be frivolous pocket
quite too tiny to put anything in ex-
cept ones fingertips. Buttonholed
slashes across the top of the apron
are threaded with ribbon, and the rib
bon is made into a rosette at either
side Of the apron. the ribbon belt fas-
tening under a rosette with a snapper.
This apron is white with pink and pale
green embroidery in forget-me-not
pattern. A similar apron is of pale
pink handkerchief linen with en-
broidery in white.
Some of these dainty little tea
aprons, or fudge aprons or chafing-
dish aprons-as you choose to desig-
nate them-are of dotted swiss with
trimming of Val. lace insertion and
frills; or Of flet lace in a fiat edging.
Dearly does man love a little apron
of this kind. 1t is almost utterly use
less-as far as keeping it's wearer
from splashing her frock is concerned
but to man it is the sign and symbol
of housewifeliness and dom esticity. A
very charming little school teacher,
known to the writer, was once highly
insulted because-while she was con-
cocting a rarebit-a man in the party
ventured to suggest: Where's your
apron?" To the schoolma'am neat
little apron was the emblem Of teach
erhood and spinsterhood. She wore
aprons in business hours but never at
any other time. She flushed up and
glared at the poor chap who was quite
puzzled by her resentment of his re-
mark To him. an apron was'a de-
lightful housewifely touch that would
have made perfect the domestic look
ing little woman at the chafing-dish.
He had really admired the little teach
er very much, but always after that
he was bit wary of her as blue
stocking who held domestic things in
contempt.
Real work aprons are not made of
swiss and lace. with satin ribbon
rossttes. They are more sturdy af-

of this hat is due to Its grace, its dig

Another very graceful model is the
roll-brim hat of tete de negre velvet
with gorgeous orange ostrich under
and over the brim. The feathers are
we'll placed, in this hat, to balance the
lines, and the ostrich effect grows
heavier and thicker as the line droops
over from the upper left to the lower

NJ EAR me, whoever thought aprons
H would come forward as a feature
81 of costume? The apron has been
~ for so long workaday thing
That it does seem odd to see it incor-
porated in Paris frocks for formal oc-
casions. Yet such is the case. and
aprons are now the piece de resistance
or afternoon and evening toilettes
The apron entered the field slyly, as
a sort of semi called an
apron tunic. It hung before or behind
the skirt in pleats of draped folds
last winter; but with this autumn sea-
son It comes boldly forward as a bona
noe apron, futtering from a belt rib
Don. .Cheruit's most popular frock at
the Paris races few weeks ago was
or dark blue serge In quite simple
lines and with short. dainty little
apron of hemstitched and pleated
handkerchief linen hanging from a
belt. The bodice was cut out in a
deep square at the neck and in this
square was a vestee Of tucked and
hemstitched handkerchief linen At
little distance the dark blue frock
seemed to be tidily adorned with a
cunning bih-apron.
ana, or course, since aprons have
stepped into the limelight as mod!sh
accessories Of the formal costume,
they are quite the rage as accessories
OF the indoor. or house costume. The
chahng-dish girl wears a frivolous
apron of lace and lawn with ribbon
strings that tie in a pert bow, and
coquettish ribbon bows on diminutiye
pockets. The hostess has a fascinat-
ing little tea apron which is supposed
to protect her pretty frock-though
she got along tidily enough without
the apron for good many years. And.
of course. there are innumerable
aprons for other household uses-for
knitting, for darning. for embroider-
ing, for making fudge. for toasting
mullins before the crate fire at Sun
day night tea, for busting, for wash
ing teacups and so on.
This infinite quantity of aprons
means much variety in the style of
aprons and on the counters of the
Woman's Exchange. where in almost
every city and town the latest things

Tremendously chic from the Paris
standpoint!
The Louison hat is a cap-like tur-
ban Of black velvet from which a
| thick. irregular fringe Of yellow
| ostrich tumbles all around over face,
hair and meek. Much smarter and
more desirable this weird hat than
any sedate model created for an Eng
fish lady-with conventional plume
winding around conventional pic
ture shape. But the English beauty
In her plume-adorned picture hat has
been proverbial. from the days when
Romney and Gainsborough painted
these beauties. No hat is quite so
| becoming as a graceful, conventionally
shaped velvet hat trimmed with very
rich (and rather conventionally
placed) ostrich plumes. No other
style Of millinery can hope to equal
this style.
