BARBARIC HAIR BTYLES POPULAR.

Since the huge pompadour rat hfts gone the way of all freak fads, women wear their hair any old way their fancy dictates, and are in style just so long as they add a lot of unsanitary hair switches in the form of braids and swirls. Each woman chooses her own becoming (?) style, »hen emphasizes it until one wonders how the roots of the real hair manage to stay where they belong. Some even confess to wearing $25 switches and a few extra curls besides. - Oriental decorations are in high favor. StHngs of semi-precious stones are wound round and round the head, tiara-like arrangements are word any time of day or evening, bands of ribbon with dangling ends, gold and silver galloon embroidered in barbaric designs and colors, and huge hairpins of Intricate device are all worn by faddy women. The prettiest of all —and it can’t be denied that many of these oriental fashions in hair ornaments are pretty—is the simple ribbon bandeau. Occasionally one sees a woman with a beautifully groomed bead of hair, softly coiled in a graceful, becoming way, fastened with a few pretty shell hairpins, and absolutely free from false hair, rats and the like. And how welcome a sight it is—and how rare!
