Straws Lead Materials For Spring Hats

Husbands and grandmothers may
snort at the idea of wearing a new
spring hat in January straw in the
middle of winter? ridiculousw But if
they were up on their modern femin-
inc psychology they would approach
ate what a new hat does to that des-
perate feeling that winter will never
end Somehow a spring hat in the
midst of January SHOWS makes April
suns and May flowers seem less re-
mote-and anyhow ones winter hat,
purchased in October, seems pretty
bedraggled by now
Among the many contestants for
first place in the millinery fashion
race, there is little doubt that the
straws will win. Certainly they are
the heavy favorites now.
Pliability First Requirement
In Smart 1881 Ssrsws
Pliability and suppleness are the
first requirements of smart straws
for 1881, for even the brimmed hats
and there will be many of them
must haTe brims that dip nonchalant-
~ in Tft outlines. Little close-fit-
ting hats are made of straws that
are so "drapable" that they seem al
most fabric.
As a matter of fact many Of the
smartest straws are almost like a
fabric. Linen panama" is as fine
as woven crepe and all the Italian
straws, like ''neora," are plant YER
sions Of the rather rough surfaced
straws which are so fashionable.

Aids To Beauty
PERFUMES.

How do you use perfume? Like
the proverbial four out of five? Get
yourself a bottle, pretty bottle,
and set it up on the dressing table
to add nice design to the articles
already there? And then use it al
most exclusively to scent the chif-
fon party hankie, or to wet bit of
hair or epidermis behind the ear?
Or, to make a spot and later a ring
on the UNDERLYING nearest the dress
layer?
You can get scent attached to
you in any of the above ways, but
not in an art-y way. Not in the
cleverest way. You do not exhale
perfume, as an art-ishly per-
fumed lady should. A subtle and
suave result is what you should be
after so that you will exhale per-
fine, not smell of one.
You should have an atomizer.
Any authority on the use of per-
fume will asure you that without
an atomizer the Exquisite finishing
touch" is hampered. Secondly, you
should turn the tables on the usual
performance of applying scent as a
last surface rite and give it first
place in the dressing performance.
Directly after the bath the atomizer
is sprayed on the body evenly,
lightly and without waste. The at
omizer may be turned loose again on
the lingerie, not forgetting a light
rain on the hem of the chiffon
stockings. The atomizer leaves no
stain and there is a certain yelled
discretion about perfume so applied.
An Old Greek Custom.
Did you ever try bit of perfume
on your eyebrows? An old Greek
and Roman custom, by the way.
You do it with a finger anointed
directly from the bottle, and as a
last touch. The dab behind the
ears we know is commonly prac-
ticed and had its inception, we un-
derstand, from girls and wives
hopeful of kiss being implanted
on the back of the neck. Old fash
Toned planting, nowadays, we un-
derstand. The eyebrow touch might
be more consistent with our oscuIa-
tory frankness.
Girls of other days use to put per-

that was in another osculatory era
when hands, not lips, We're extended
in greeting. A dab on the wrist
however, will impart an intriguing
aroma with each gesture of the hand.
Now, about choosing perfume, do
YOU say "All right, I'll try it." when
the clerk advises that it is having
popular run? Like it, and like it
better than any other perfume be-
fore you choose. By your own
strong preference for scent you can
often get the one that belongs by
right to your particular personality.
If you have an outstanding per-
sonality, you can wear an outstand-
ing perfume, just as you can wear
dress that is different. In fact, the
taste in dress when it conforms TO
the personality of its wearer is q
good guide in perfume choice.
The main thing in perfume use is
not to overdo, thing all are more on
less prone to do because of the unre-
liability of the nasal organ. The
nose easily becomes accustomed to
an odor and requires more and more
to satisfy it. When in doubt, ask the
nearest nose to decide whether OF
not you have enough on.

II may have been mistake to
leave your husband, who is so lack

ever believe or trust him after the
way he has betrayed the trust of
everyone. even his own mother and

grieving. You will be far better off

came to pull America down to tn:

IF ever a group of nations deliber-
ately set out to wreck the economic

of Europe set out on such an expedition
when they sailed to attend this con-
yention. Instead of seeking to
rectify its own ills Europe here sought
to pull herself up by pulling America
down"
