ers with all the coquetry practiced
by their grandmothers. who first
owned the same shawls. They usu-
ally have the Chantilly mounted on

not only protects the old threads OF
the lace. but it adds to the warmth
Of the shawls.

Will Women
WeqrShaWls?

Will women wear shawls again?
Nobody knows, because nobody
knows anything about what women
will wear. 1t is hard enough to
know what they are wearing.
But perhaps they will take up the
shawl again.
There was time. not long ago,
when we should have said, il any
body asked us, that women would
not go back to the cape. Capes
seemed just plain old-fashioned.
The idea that they could ever seem
anything else didn't strike us as
reasonable. They would remain old
fashioned to the end of the chapter.
il anybody wanted to know what
our opinion on the subject was.
But capes! Look at them! Capes
are almos. in the class of sweat
ers as perennial contestants for the
title of the most popular form OF
outer covering for the feminine
form.
sHAWLs ARE GRACEFUL.
And so why shouldn't shawls come
in style again. AS far as the ar
tistic worth of shawls is concerend,
they are really more graceful poten-
TALLY than capes are. We think of
the swinging dash of an Italian
cavalryman. perhaps, when we
think OF capes, or Of the rather
stiff gallantry of an Elizabethan
courtier. We may, of course, think
of the graceful women of the en-
pire who wore them, and we may
be reminded OF the lovely women
Of Rome whose outer garments
were capelike.
But do we ever think OF a man
when we think of a shawl? Never.
To be sure, some OF the men In
Dickens's novels wore shawls-
something like steamer rugs, we
suppose-when they went travel
ing. But on the whole the shawl
is essentially feminine. And the
thoughts it brings UP are thoughts
of charming women.
CARMEN WORE SHAWL.
There is Carmen. who worked
havoc with the hearts OF men-and
partly with the aid OF her lovely
fringed and embroidered shawls.
There is no doubt of that
Then there is the Spanish man
tilla, which is really a shawl in fact.
1t is sotr OF glorifled royal sister
of the humble square of checked
wool that humble women of many
countries have used for years in
place of hat.
And there Is the enveloplng shawl
OF the women of the middle OF the
last century--auite as Characteristic
as the crinoline or the parted hain
And those women were essentially
feminine. Does any thought OF the
courteous holding OF a modern top
coat by q gallant compare In sent-
mentality with tho wrapping In her
warm shawl which was performed
by the gallant OF seventy years ago7
CBANTULY LACE USED.
Tho shawl may not come back
again, but thero is no particular
reason why II shouldn't.
And as far as that goes, there are
shawls today worn by women who
make or unmake fashions. One
woman who In noted ns n starter OF
fads appeared not long ago in tho
evening with bright red wool
shawl of Chinese make around her
shapely shoulders. II was fringed
with red silk, but Il was free from
embroidery. Its soft fabho and
clear color--that lovely red that
only the Chinese seem TO get, and
that is best IN combination only
with whlte--lent themselves well to
the foIds that the shawl took on as
" clung about her figure.
And other women have taken
forth their old Chantilly lace shawls
snd are wearing them Just as
shawis. They are not having hem
