THE NEW OPERA HOOD

RUMIXDS O.XC OP PICTURES OP ESN Ql'IMMJ AVOMEX.

While Far from Decomlns to Many .IVenrem, Ttaer Will ne Welcomed by Theater-Coins: Men.

The question of evening wraps that will cover the modern party gown Is a troublepome one In the fashionable world. The flaring skirts. Immense sleeves, decollete corsage and pompadour hair, rs well as the" flat, require peculiar covering. The opera or party mantles are long, fur triznrr.ed and, like a circular. The opera wrap Is a creation not to be compared to anything known. It, as well as the dres3 under it, may have pauze, fur, silk. Jet, or rnore varieties of material if the taste and the pocketbook both hold out. One of the novelties la the Marie Antoinette hood seen oil1 many of the capes. It stands out so well from the hair and at the same time Is such a protection to the head that It would seem to have solved a difficulty for fashionable women. Truth would compel the statement that this headgear will not be becoming to all faces, and the smooth hair and severe lines will not show to as much advantage as will the coiffure arranged a la pompadour. This hood is wired to keep it in place and at the same time hold It Qff the hair. It can be made up by itself, separate or apart from .the opera cloak, or can be part of that garment. It has always been a vexed question as to what looks well on the head en route to ball, opera or dinner. The wearing of any Jewels, particularly tiaras and coronets, is shown to great effect under these hoods, and will make the opera foyer this winter a more striking tableau than ever It is a foregone conclusion that the belle of lSD."-0i? will have more colds than she ever had before, for all of her dresses are ss bouffant that her wraps will scarcely touch her. Free Kindergarten Tea, The members of the third section of the Free Kindergarten will give an entertainment to-morrow afternoon and evening at Brenneke s Academy on North Illinois street.
