these old-fashioned rallies created

their fortunes in Wall street never
were roisterers in the sense that the

native sense enough not to let the
possession of q few millions, more or
less, turn their heads.
Some of them, too, were brought
up in a strict school Of discipline
conducted by the Old Man, himself.
in which the Old Man. generally
pretty strong minded, made 1T pretty
tough on any offspring of his who

Two other factors have entered into
the lives of these young fellows to
initiate against cases of swelled
head and coltishness in general. One
of them was the war, in which Vir-
tually every rich mans son, as well
as nearly every poors mans son, was
more OF less engaged. War, the great
leveller. gave most Of them new
viewpoint and probably a real at
lection for the man in the street
The other factor is that most of
the rich mems sons in Wall street
have married and settled down. and
not few Of them have passed the

ADMIRE THE DUVETYN HAT
Headgear Of This Kind Easily Enough Made, But Price of Material
 Discouragina.

Most every girl, if she hasn't duve- tyn hat, wishes she had one. Of course, they are easily enough made, but glimpse at the price of duvetyn in the shops is enough to discourage even the. most hopeful soul. If, how ever, you have one of those French tams so popular few seasons ago, 1t will help you. They are made of 8 material very much like duvetyn and work up beautifully into toques or small hats. The first thing to do is to visit the nearest and 10 cent store and treAt yourself to a 10-cent hat frame of buckram. Fit your tam over this Ca slit or so may be needed to make it fit). Once fitted on the frame, it is for you to use your ingenuity in draping the crown into soft folds. Here is where a bit of chenille in contrast ing color can be used effectively. A flower motif or conventional design is just the thing to hold the folds il place. Any further trimming can be left to your own Judgment. once the rudiments have been completed.

DETACHABLE LINING IS NEW
Regarded as Style, But First Aid to Sanitation.

You may wear a detached air this spring, but to be really smart you must wear a detached lining to your frock as well, notes a fashion correspond ent. Not smart in the chic sense of the word, of course, but downright clever, for though one of these new detachable Things won't add much in a stylish way to your gown, as first aid to sanitation, hygiene and time conservation they have no equal.
 Just Imagine the delight and relief when the lining of your perfectly good new frock has become bit soiled to detach it deftly and airi1y from it's moorings and nonchalant1y toss it to the handmaiden who presides over your weekly wash board and fndustricusly rubs her way through your entire ward robe. Then, when she has had her way with it and it returns to you a bit worn but pure, you fasten it quick ly in place inside your gown again and prestol all is as good as new.
 Surely everyone but the dry cleaners are due to hail these detachable Things with joy and rapture and attach them selves with great dispatch to lining that will thus detach.
 Made of heavy washable silk they can be obtained cut to any measure and can be adapted to any type of dress Just for good measure they even come provided with an extra pair of sleeves. They certainly seem to be a mighty good thing to get next to or at least to get next to you.
 Yet another detachable note prom ises to enter into our spring fashion able scheme of things and that is%the return of the Alexandria curl. dis they call it in London, or the old Janice Meredith curl, as we knew it in days of yore. It is that one corkscrewed tress that is allowed to dangle intri- guingly over one shoulder from loosely pompadoured coiffure Ten to one it is as detachable as the afore- mentioned Things, but to be firmly at tached to the scalp does not bar it from the mode.

 carved shell of the purest blond quail ity. This comb differs, however, from the ordinary shell comb in that only the frame is of the pale yellow tor toise shell, inside of which is stretched an exquisite panel of real Chantilly lace, thus making the comb almost transparent.
 An interesting model developed by Lanvin is a striking Illustration of how beautifully the new soft taffetas may be used to make straight-line dresses. In this instance dark blue taffeta is chosen. The sleeves are in bishop or peasant style, striking con- trast to the very short cap sleeves. The round high collar in choker form is in direct opposition to the low neck, collarless frock.
 Both Lanvin and Jenny are strongly advocating the full length sleeve and the high collar in their simple silk dresses designed for afternoon wear. Jenny charmingly combines printed chiffon with foulard in simple chemise frock. The upper part of the dress and narrow foundation skirt are both of the printed chiffon, the pat tern of which is graduated spot de- 9--1 in black on a white background.

LIGHTHOUSE POINT
H. F. Owens, Proprietor.

UeauIITuI one mas bright note Of color introduced through an apron effect of bright peacock blue tulle, which is laid in full plafts, the apron being draped at the sides to give the effect of a tulle pannier.
 Low DecoIIetage Not Featured. Many of the smartest tuIle dresses do not feature the extremely low dec olletage. Some of them have little more than the shallow round neckline that extends out on the shoulders after the manner of a street frock. The transparency of the material, however, gives the effect of a low decolletage.
 If you have any old laces put away, now is the time to use them. Entire dresses are being made of bands of lace joined together. Where the strips of lace are sewn together, metal en- broideries are of silver, little silver ribbon in the form of girdle or shoul- der straps is a delightful addition to the dress, especially. if the lace is black.
 So great IS the demand for lace that the lacemaking industry of England and France has been given great inn petus In fact, it is almost impossible for the supply to meet the demand at the present time. .Laces and nets not only make entire frocks, but are used as trimmings in a most lavish way High wired lace collars some what like the Medici collars are in- troduced on many afternoon frocks, and even cloth dresses have entire fronts formed of friIls of net.

EARLY HAT MODES
Crowns Both High and Low;
 Brims Are of All Widths.
Premature Display of Headgear cosss stitutes Trying Out Process for
 the Different Styles.

Millinery shops are putting forth hats of summery aspect-and numbers are being bought by southward bound folk and stay-at-homes as well. This premature display for the spring and summer constitutes a trying out proc ess for the different styles which the milliners see fit to launch at this time of year.
 The unusual shapes which are be- coming to the few take their proper place, and the shapes which are pre- destined to extinction on account of their absolute hopelessness on any woman are cast into the discard.
 AS the procession passes the pru- dent woman who gets the last minute of wear out of her winter hat and does not put on her new hat until spring has really arrived can, if she has good judgment, make her choice of spring millinery before purchas- ing. She can do a sort of mental trying on which will save her from making mistakes in the hurry and con- fusion of the actual buying.
 There is an unusual variety of mod elS TOT the early showing. mere are turbans high and low, f1aring and mar row; tall crowned, broad-brimmed hats; shapes f1aring up at the front, at the back, or at the sides; pokes and tricornes. Somewhat newer and smarter than the hat with it's brim turned up at the front is the model turned up sharply at both front and back. ...
 One model of this type showed the crown covered witH heavy flowers and straw brim in matching henna shade. Another model on these same lines had crown of satin of the new brown tint. The straw brim was of a shade to match. The brim was fold ed back at the sides and trimmed with a large yello4-toned rose.
 Henna, by the way, is one of the favored shades in spring millinery. One lovely large broad-brimmed mushroom shape showed a crown and upper part of brim in henna red straw with facing in oyster white or border ing on light tan-just off white. The smart medium-sized crown was encir- cled by a henna-colored fancy feather or aigrette.

WILL WEED OUT
 EXTREME MODES
Exaggerated Fashions Must En- counter Elimination Test as ;
 Season Advances.
PRETTY MODELS FOR GIRLS
Designers Seize Upon sateens for Little Misses-LoW DecoIIetaqe Not Featured-OId Laces
 In Demand.

Many extreme fashions are intro duced at the beginning of each new season. This has always been notice able throughout the history of clothes. It is seldom, however, observes fash ion correspondent, that the exaggerated models take root, although they four lsh until the wedding out process is over-for there is always a wedding out of fashions as the season ad- vances; then we find their best fea- lures embodied in wearable models.
 At this stage of the metamorphosis of fashion the we'll dressed woman, who is always careful to avoid ex- tremes, selects her wardrobe. It is important, however, from the stand point of fashion news as we'll as a guide in making future selections to note the new things as they are brought out and to follow them through their various incarnations, for many of them are put forth for the new ideas that they embody. Dress makers and manufacturers vary these ideas to suit their own clientele.
 Will Straight-Line Triumph
 AfteN> the first furry occasioned by striking models passed, the chemise frock proved to be more of favorite than ever, because the best dressed women absolutely refused to accept anything else. It is too early to pre- dict whether this season will see a similar triumph for the straight-line dress.
 The use of the old-time light weight materials is brought about partly through these new designs and partly through the scarcity of wool fabrics. The present high price of silk, too, has had a great deal to do with making cotton fabrics popular, but even these are not inexpensive, for this summers cotton frock will cost almost as much as last years silken dress.
 A frock Illustrating a revival of three old-fashioned features has the three-tier ruffied skirt cut in petal points, the old-fashioned bertha draped about the shoulders and the very old time rococo applique ribbon and chenille relief embroidery which came into prominence in the days of Marie Antoinette. This is a design which might be attractively developed as a lingerie frock for a young girl, with simple embroidery substituted for the more ornate relief work.
 Voiles and Dimities.
 Among the cotton things which we will wear are fine, sheer, lowered voiles that are almost like chiffons, as we'll as old-fashioned cross-barred dim ities, very fine in weave and of silky finish. These have the bars marking off tiny squares. One seldom sees white dimity in the coming summers frocks, the preference being for pale shades of pink, blues and lavenders.
 Then there are the beautiful dotted muslins from Switzerland. These are in deeper colorings than the vOiles and dimities, some even being in bright reds and purDles dotted with a con-
