HAIR ORNAMENTS THE FAD

May Be as Elaborate as One Wishes, Always Within the Bounds of Good Taste. Elaborate hair ornaments are worn by young girls this season. There are shell pins with hinged tops with gems that may be turned In different direc■tlons to suit the coiffure, and simulated cape of strings of pearls with tiny chin straps of pearls to match to wear in the evenings. , Narrow bandeaux of rhinestones that widen Out in a barrette in the back and which are matched by the high spans In combs set with rhinestones are very pretty. There are also caps formed of strings of jewels set wide apart, with two straight feathers up the front, their quills outlined with gems. Square-topped pins, inlaid with gold, matching gold-topped side combs and a high open-work back comb with a filigree design in the gold, are all shown, as are also hairpins with filigree gold tops, shaped like a ball, the center filled with compressed sachet balls and thin bands of gold ending in gold taMels to wear across the front of the hair, the tassels hanging back of the ears like simulated earrings. Glass as a material for coiffure ornaments is steadily making its way into favor. Under a strong light spun glass aigrettes are most effective, especially when of white combined with emerald green, sapphire, blue, ruby, red or gplden yellow. Some glass tiaras show a design in flowers and leaves attached to a skeleton latticing in silver or gold. Rosebuds with their foliage are favorites.

but so are white wild daisies and any of the smaller field blooms. Clusters of oak or mistletoe leaves are used with good effect in glass tiaras, and, in facL any sort of foliage that is not overlarge may correctly be used, excepting, of course, the strawberry leaves sacred to the English duchess.

Coiffure ornaments and tiaras in amber or in amber colored glass are stunning lookingon a brunette beauty, and for blondes there are fetching effects in all-jet or in jet combined with paste, pearls or opals.
