COIN OF zap VERY DURABLE

If any payment should be neces-
Sary in the reimbursement az zap be-

the currency used would not be that

The short, slender woman with a

than three 10 three and half inches
In width.
The long-faced woman, especially
if she is tall, should avoid the tall
crowned or tall trimmed hat. She
may, however. wear a wider brimmed
hat than the short, slender woman.
The tall stout woman is often stun

her height makes 1t possible for her
to wear a hat which would make the

For the person who wears glasses,
hard lines and edges in hats should
be studiously avoided. An edge may
be softened by bias fold. ribbon
slightly fulled, or a band of fur.
A hat with stiff monotonous edge
is not likely TO be becoming TO many
persons. especially to those who are
no longer young.
