The arrangement was much like the old-fashioned chignon. r ' AGAIN THE CHIGNON, j Chignons were worn almost universally at about the time of the Civil War. Nobody ever has been known to assert that th'ey were beautiful. The real chignon is made by rolling LADIES AND M188I tho hair into a large unpleasant bunch, whioh then is surrounded by a net. This makes the entire mess look like tha braided rope fenders worn by tug bolts. An inducement offered by the chignon is that ono can wear somebody else's hair if one lacks enough of the real article.

The exquisite color of Parma- violets has been adopted by Parisian elegantes for party gowns and the artistic creations worn in the afternoons. One of these evening toilettes is of Parma satin, the skirt trimmed ; with a flounce of embroidered tulle, headed by a wealth of Parma violets. The blouse corsage of- Parma satin i3 ornamented with a scarf of -the embroidered tulle caught into a large bow by a bouquet of violets. Small joskeys of satin fall over the tulle draperies which form the short sleeves. The tulle is used as a cravat, and ties in a large bow at the back of the neck. Nothing could be more becoming to a tall, slender woman than this simple yet thoroughly artistic model. Winged and Creeping Things. Spiders, grasshoppers and all sorta of winged insects and groveling bags are the popular designs in jeweled pins. Overalls For Small Boy. Every mother knows the advantage of an apron.
