The Latest Fancy in Veils

THE latest fad which has seized upon the feminine fancy and is about to run its course is the wearing of a full, straight-hanging veil. It is usually of net bordered with narrow ribbon, but, beforq long, veils of chantilly and other laces may outnumber those of net. In spite of the popularity of figured lace in the smaller face veils the fact remains that they are less becoming than plain or dotted nets. The smartest of the new r veils are shaped to flare and ripple about the bottom, after the manner of the new skirts. Those in taupe color, twine color and black hold first place and look especially well w ith the jiew demi-

season hats which are early in the field as harbingers of the coming of spring. A new design in veils of figured net is shown in the picture, having pendant fern leaves as a pattern on a net ground. It is interesting as a novelty, but the more irregular floral designs are more attractive. An illustration of the two most popular nets is given also, showing one with a square and one with a hexagonal mesh. Veils of this kind are bordered with velvet dots, some of them square and others round, and in size varying frorii a sixteenth to a half inch in diameter.
