For some wears henceforth Mrs

On August 18, fulfilling a plan of

currently spend the hay fever sea-

had found this affliction much more
bearable than in this country.

styling brings skirt fullness to the
front in latest approved manner. Its
form-fitting midriff accents a slen-
der waistline as is required of fash

cant styling details.
No matter how enhancing her
gown, a bride fails at looking her
prettiest if her headdress and veil
do not fatter. Here again is fash
ion indulgent to the spring bride, in
that the new fantasies of tulle and
flowers and lace include every pos
sible type, suited to every individu-
atty. Best of all, in the modern way
of doing things there is no fuss or
furry at the last moment to get the
veil pinned into shape by nervous
unskilled fingers, for that has been
taken care of in advance by spe-
cialists. All that is required of the
bride-to-be is to take her milliner
into confidence long before the hap
py day or the consulting adviser in
the wedding bureau where you are
supposed to come and ask questions,
as established nowadays in all high
class establishments. If it is a pc
Rod type, or a youthful ingenue
headdress, or a stately coronet, if it
be a simple inexpensive piece or
most elaborate one let your needs
be known and by some magic, it's
there before your very eyes.
The various types of headdress
shown in the little inset pictures
are typical new trends such as are
available in shops and specially de-
partments that cater to seekers of
bridal array.

BEVERAGES Classified

The quantity of water needed by
each person varies with the di-
etary and with the season of the
year, much larger amounts being
required when the temperature is
high. But it is generally agreed
that everyone should consume sew
eral glasses of water daily, in ad-
dition to the water obtained from
foods, chiefly fruits and vegeta-
bles. Part of the need is met by
milk, and by coffee, tea, cocoa,
fruit juices and various other
fruit-favored drinks which add
pleasure to mealtime, serve as
wholesome, between-meal pick
me-ups, and provide a gracious
method of extending hospitality to
guests.
Aside from milk, which belongs
in a classification by itself, and
fruit juices which are consumed
chiefly for their minerals and vita.
minis, beverages fall into two
groups which overlap somewhat:
those that are refreshing and those
that are stimulating.
