THE WORLD
OF WOMEN
By Joan Savoy
If you want to be demurely feminine, ret galty sophisticated, make sure that your hat knows how to flutter you. Nothing will do the trick more quickly than
a large, beguiling bow that ties itself in exactly the place where your hat needs a little excitement..
Dubounir tams and sailors that cock themselves sudaciously over one eye, or sit straight on the centre of your head are all right for street wear. But when you want to go glamorous, a bow ties the trick. You need ornamentation if your hats are going to be in'har- mony with the sophisticated trend of clothes this
geason.
Among the Biost intriguing of the new autumn hats, which have caught the Parls spirit, are the minule cap effacts that perch at treacherous angles, held secure by the way they conform to the features, and the huge bows that serve us anchors.
BEAUTY HINTS.
Lips That Touch

OUR BRITISH CROSSWORDS
Black Is Best for Blondes
There in one novelty velvet with an interesting cut at the side which reveals the hair. If your hair is black, by all means choose this type in white. But if you are a platinum blonde, wear black. Your own hair will make a most effective decoration. There is an attractive line over the right side of the forehend which ends in a great bow over the right car.
Another hat, not quito so demure, la fashioned from black velvet with tiny, tight-fitting crown. It is trimmed by a saucy black not veil which has an in- teresting horsehair design worked into it. The veil falls just over the middle of the nose, keeping in rhythm with the curve of the hat, and a black bow ties at the back, with the loops going down on the right side and up on the loft.
Big Bow for Decoration
A third hat is made from red silk grosgrain ribbon crossed with eponge.. A tremendous windmill bow across the back fa the only decoration.
If you have a new shingle, the point of it will show in the back.
Hats such as these are not just supposed to cover the top of your hend, They require Imagination, for they will give you a glamorous setting that helps along your general en- semble. If you are going in for decorative touches, do In fascinating, correct manuer, Then you may toss your hat in- to any style ring without fear.
