Utility Hats of Mourning

Bccauso mourning hats havo a
lasting place in the- Rchomo of things,
special fabrics aro manufactured for
making them. BcsldcB crapo, nun's
veiling and grenadine there aro heav
ier silks that aro used for tho utility
hats of mourning. Crape is often
used in tho decoration of these hats
of heavier silk, and since tho process
of waterproofing it has been discov
ered its durability rivals that of any
other silk.
Three mourning hats for street
wear aro Bhown hero. Dignified and
conservative shapes are chosen for
them, and thoy aro made with ex
qulslto neatness and accuracy. Tucks
and folds and ornaments mmlo of tho
material aro as characteristic of these
hats as of those mado entirely of
crape,
At tho left of the picture a sailor hat
of chiffon taffeta has a brim of even
width all around, covered with tho silk
put on plain, and a soft top crown.
Overlapping bias folds cover tho side
crown, and a novel rosette of the silk
forms tho trimming. It Is posed
squarely in front.
At tho right a hat with a wider
brim Is covered with faillo silk put on
smoothly. There is a ribbon band
about the crown, and whero the brim
lifts at tho back a bow and ends of
tho same ribbon. Tho ornament at
tho front simulates a bird and Is mado
of overlapping folds of silk on a
foundation.
At tho top a hat suited to tho ma
tron is mado of a corded silk. It is
r. tricorue shape and tho silk covers
tho shapo smoothly. Ornaments ro
sembllng quills aro mado by winding
foundations of wired buckram with
Making Ready the
Now Is tho time to think of new
blouses and to make them ready for
spring and summer. Already tho ad
vance models for tho coming soaBon
aro shown In variety so great that it
bewilders the thrifty buyor who as
pires to making an early selection.
To go about this in tho right way it is
necessary to classify each blouse ac
cording to its character, and that Is
iotermined by tho use to which It Is
to bo put. Tho now offerings show
tho shirt waist, tho sport shirt, tho
Jcmldress, and tho dressy blouse, and
all of them developed in any ono, or
two, of a dozen materials.
Whatever the design, It may ho do
ponded upon that tho materlul Is sheer
or light in weight If not transparent,
nearly always washable, whether cot
ton, linen, or silk, and that a combi
nation of two fabrics is plentifully
shown In blouses as lu dresses, among
the scmldrcss arid dressy modols.
High necks and low necks aro almost
equully In evidence, so that there Is
a cholco of styles, and many dressy
blouses and a few shirt waists fasten
in the back.
Two beautiful models for dressy
wear aro shown in tho picture, and
thoy are representative styles. Tho
hlouso at tho left Is mado of georg
ette crepo In white and maize color,
and has a V-shaped neck with high
turnover collar and long sleeves. Tho
upper part of tho blouso 13 of tho
white cropo sot on to tho lowor part,
In malzo color, by a tuck with hem-
bias folds of the silk. They aro mount
ed nt tho front, following tho lino of
the brim at tho right, and run through
rings mado in the same way as they
are.
Theso hats aro correct for street
wear, In shapo and material, and In
tho methods used in making them.
They aro shown In tho correct poso
on tho head. Jaunty shapes and rakish
poses aro obviously entirely out of
placo In mourning millinery.
Rose Petal Cushions.
Sofa pillows wore never more
charming! Where Is tho woman who
can resist the appeal of tho newest
rose-petal one? it Is shaped exactly
like a rose, with tho petals nearest
tho heart of tho deepest shade. Each
petal is cut separately, gathered where
It Is attached, and by this means is
shaped so that tho perfect llower is
simulated petal by " petal. Among
theso satiny potals tho head sinks
to rest in downy ease.
Care of Complexion.
Some complexions will not accept
soap and water, others cannot enduro
oil cosmetics. There Is as much dif
ference between complexions as there
is between digestions what Is food
for ono Is poison for another. As a
general rule, for tho averago skin
tho soap and water bath at night is
of great benefit. To retire with the
dust and grime of the day remaining
on one's countenanco is to treat one's
face nogligently.
Always Justice Triumphs.
Man is unjust but God is Just, am
finally Justice triumphs. Selected.
Spring Blouses
stitching at the top. There is a bor
der an inch wide, of tho maizo color,
set about tho edge of tho turnover
collar, and a wide hand of it sot In
tho cuff. Tho waist fastens down tho
front with black buttons having whitu
rims.
A flower design In whlto (loss out
lined with black Is embroidered on tho
maize-colored crepe, and all the
seams in this elegant blouso aro hem
stitched. It is machino made and
can bo bought, therefore, for about
llvo dollars.
Next to It Is a much more expensive
affair mado of marquisette, with every
stitch in it put in by hand. French
knots nnd pin tucks covor consider
able of its surface An applique and
embroidery design of grapes and
leaves makes an exquisite banding
set into tho material with n narrow
cluny Insertion. Tho standing collar
is finished with a cluny edging.
This waist requiros very llttlo more
outlay of money for material than the
other, but tho beautiful uccdlowork In
it makes it bring a stiff price. And
tho initiated who are nblo to gratify
their cultivated and expensive tasto
pay something like forty dollars for it.
