OUR NEW YORK LETTER.
New York, May $3.50 large has
the number become of bob-haired
maidens-and matrons, too-that a
whole special lot of millinery has had
to be created for them. New York
shops are devoting special sections to
Igrown-ups' hats in childrens sizes In
order to fit those uncoiffured heads.
They look sort of amusing in the win
dows until one gets accustomed to
them. as tho they were intended for
big French dolls; but it does seem
good to see the devotees of bobbed
hair in some things that do not roll
all over their smooth round heads.
The baby buggy garage is the latest
simplifier of life's daily troubles. They
are a Brooklyn innovation and SO far
haven't crossed the river to Manhat-
tan, but they'll soon arrive. undoubt-
eddy. There are lot more babies in
Brooklyn, which probably speeded
their day And the getting of the
baby-carriages upNand down in apart
ment elevators-or worse, the stairs
was one of the things that gave par
ents that worn and worried look so
often noted. An enterprising Brook
Ignite solved the problem by opening
a parking store" in one district of
particularly large apartment houses.
For a small amount each week, he
stores the perambulators when they
are not in use. All that hubby has to
do is to call for the car in the morn
ing. trundle it around to the house
and leave the rest to his wife.
How IS a woman to escape being
beautiful much longer? Clever men
and women who knew the Importance
of the matter started in giving US new
compilations, lustered hair, more
pounds or less pounds which ever we
needed. Pretty nearly everything in
the world had been done to improve
us. But there was one girl who still
had an advantage bestowed by nature
which the beauty doctors couldn't
rival. Who has not envied her of the
lovely eyelashes! And now they've
made us all her peers! Artificial eye
lashes, delicate things which fit per-
fectly in place in an instant and can
be swept upward with all the fascina-
beautifier of New York women. c.
Nestle, originator of permanent wav-
ing, invented" them and has been
giving regular matinees demonstrate
ing them to eager but slightly-lashed
ladies at his parlors on East 49th
hi Ia nf
only unattractive but physicians say
they cause eye-strain from dust and
sun and too bright electric lights. So
there's more than vanity in their VIC
TINS interest Aside from the women
whose lashes never would grow, they
have made a tremendous hit with
stage people. There is special kind
for them, all beaded and "blued" so
that their own lashes and eyelids can
be kept nice and clean of all grease
paint and makeup. Talk about the
days of romance being oyeri When
you can get a curling pair of eye
lashes for a dollar, how CAN romance
die?
The flat-foot has come into a place
of distinction in one place. anyhow,
however much it has been the butt of
scorn and jokes. That's on the dance
floor. In new step just being in
troduced On Broadway, the 'flatboat
foot comes away with all honorS
There's a pushing, gliding gait to 1t
that is almost impossible for the
arched instep of one-time envy.
