SELECT COLORS WITH CARE

Hlghly Important Accessory to the Costume Demands a Great Deal of Thought. Color counts for a great deal at present. It is, however, color used with discretion., The latest method of introducing a right note of color is tp be found in the handkerchief of the moment. A little square of lawn, with a border in some bright tint, is tucked into the fastening of the tailor-made. The little accessory must match some part of the toilette. A new feather trimming, which does credit to the TertUfi is one which is made of ostrich plumes of various tints and shades. Any old ostrich mounts may be used, a bunch of uncurled feathers being collected together, and the stems wound with wire. The tips are then cut off perfectly square, so as to form an ornament in shape resembling a cockade. The fronds are not curled, and the ornament is laid against the upturned brim of a fur toque.
