The younger set are wearing ank-

was observed wearing q number Of
East Indian silver armlets, and ank.
lets on the left ankle to match.
The prim little old-fashioned
cross-stitch designs over which
our grandmotthers labored arc
seen, today on swagger bathing
suits. Against background, for
example, of deep blue satin, o dado
of little girls dancing in u circle
among the buttercups gives a
highly demure effect.
The interesting rosette and Sc
quin design observed on many OF
Tutankhamen royal robes has
been taken over in bead embroid-
cry. Rosettes and sequins, alter
mating, today ornament many OF the
afternoon frocks in Paris.
More and more Parisian women
are wearing their hair in the Ori-
entail manner. This is, of course,
much like the Spanish, except that
for evening veil or scarf is used
instead Of a high comb, the whole
effect being sleek and low instead
of sleek, and high.
