WOMEN'S WORLD

FOR OUR LADY READERS.

PARIS MILLINERY.

Berets Still Fashionable.

The very latest millinery, revila- tion is the tricorne, and it would sen to offer the ideal answer to the question-Tà brim, at not to brim ?" It is less trying than the stark, briniless turban, more man- ageable than the large hat.

It is jaauty, and at the same time nerkily feminine.

Of course, the 1800 Tricarnes often only hear the faintest faniily resemblance to their rightemith century ancestors. The idea is tr have the tricorne brim rolled up and away. "Life" is their motto.. And they should never be quite symmetrical, nor violently asym metrien either.

Birarnes, brothers to tricornes, are also good. Their brims much draped and their point curves down towards the shoulders in a very becoming manner,

Women still like berete, and they will wear them. They are draped high here and there, at whatever point your facial architecture sug- gesta They may suggest the skirl of bagpipes, being pulled down to the back of the neck, and looking rather like the tam-o'-shanter.

Often they are mounted on con- grosgrain trasting bandeaux, of

The new crocheted hats for shorts wir are having a success. They are made just like old-fashioned stocking eaps, and you drape them to please yourself. A banch pansies, a single rose, a white or pink chanellia adied against your right cheek will dress them up for afternoon.

PAUSE AND THINK.

Stop Being "Sorry.”

So many people have a habit of saying "sorry" when they don't really moan it. They go through life apologising on all hands, with- out realising it in the least.

It is nothing but mannerism.. We have all seen two pedestrianà meet on the causeway and stop dead in front of each other. Both murmur "Sorry" and step out of the way. At least, that is the intention; as a matter of fact one steps to the right, and the other to the left soit thereas mother uses to say when learning her dancing steps-and so the popping from side to side goer n. Eventually one stays but long rough for the other to dash past and they go on their respective ways feeling quite unnecessarily foolish.
