FASHION NOTES.
Silver-Tipped Finger Nails.
Parisiennes have started a new decoration Kar their delicate finger-tips. It is a new craze, and rather a dangerous ane. Already blood-red nails are a little out of fashion, while a coral-pink, which is rather charming when it exactly matches the colour of the lips, as it should, has been worn for some time. But now women are begin- ning to paint their nails silver, and even gold.
In order to make this new silver- tint adhere, however, a base of chemical must be used, which, if proper care is not taken, may ruin, the nails, which it gradually cats away. So, you see, there's no silver lining to this cloud! A week is the limit in which it is safe to keep the nails covered with either a silver or gold coating.

The New Hats. Buying a hat ta-day is an adren- There are so many new shapes, although they always keep within certain lines, which lay down that the crown must fit the head, the brows must be shown in some way, and the whole effect must be flattering to the face.
The uninitiated think they are simple; they are, but so cunning- ly simple, that it needs an artist to get the right angle,
A black velvet hat, for instance, has a crown and a brim, twisted and folded, and lo, it is a thing of beauty!
Watch a modiste moulding a shape on a client's head, and you will realise just how much the material owes to elever fingers: A fold here stresses one good point, a twist there, another, a bend in another place, throws a soit shade over a too strongly- marked feature, and, the whale effect is one of youthfulness.
A woman to-day owes more to her milliner than she ever realisés. Velvet, by the way, is going to be the material for hats this autumn.
