HAUTE MONDE. t W f EARING the hat slightly to one \\( aide is very becoming to some faces, those with a dash of fun and coquetry in their expression Gainsborough's famous Duchess of Devonshire is anMnstanoe, the width „ of the brim adding piquancy to the whole. But the present fashion of earing the hat so one-sided that part of tl e narrow brim points to the enith. while its antipodes portion ! *sts upon the shoulder, is apt to be grotesque rather than picturesque, '-specially when the wearer has an ir of so’emn gloom as her natural expression—many of us have. A clever weman once wrote: "Never cry In a rose-colored hat.” The greater includes the less, "Never look glum in a one-sided hat.” Though It is a fashion of the hour to wear them fo. no one need do it. The mlddle- **ed woman usually wears a look of noxious severity that sometimes i mounts to scowling. It means short fright or a fear of looking too ami- ► ble, that is all: but to unite this tearsom expression with a hat stand ing on its own brim, is to make a I sartorial mistake of the first order. Some of the hats bordered all round the up-turned brim with a ruched ribbon are very pretty. Satire j has attacked the silly plume without banishing it from the smart hat. The I I'nmlf papers show it thrusting itself j into the 1 uman oye, tickling intolera- 1 ly the human cheek and ear, and advertising the foolishness of the wearers Ir. many unmistakable ways * * * The very soft brocades and moires now used for dresses 'all In graceful folds about the figure, and such ma terials as chamuuse, silk voile and foulard ere in great favor. These are dyed to exquisite shades of amethyst, rose, green, blue, citron and mauve. The most effective gowns are made In one. though the three-piece dress Is still in favor. A tall girl In rose- colored brocade looked well of a re cent opera nigh*. Usually the hack of the gown has a wide, flat pleat that folds underneath at either side. By the tailor’s art these are pressed ab solutely flat so that there Is no ap pearance of unnecessary fullness, and yet whe-u the wearer walks, there Is sufficient width tor freedom of mo- *1 The Kimball Player brings added charm to home life 7 /i' 1 Christmas Gift for Each Member of the Family This month, of all months, is the most popular time for music in the home, on account of Christ mas and the attending holidays.

Tom Hood’s “Miss Kilmansegg and Jlcr Precious to display which ne- I cessjtated a very particular type of | skirt, shorter on one side than even [ Diana’s. Those who have seen the ! tango danced will realize what abun- l dant opportunity It affords for the display of stockings, even more at the tack than In front. This should Cause a good boom for fine silk stock ing makers. The transparent ones are becoming more and more reveal ing with every week. Tango stock ings are black or otherwise dark in tint unless worn with white or light gowns, when they accord with the tone of these or are in gold color. • * * r’olffures are not w’orn so close ly coiled round the head as they were a few weeks ago. Sometimes one sees a conical coiffure, rising very high, hut kept dose and narrow be hind the ears, which are always cov- I » red. Another style has the hair lift ed In a high billow on the top of the j head, supported by a "giraffe” comb, i Smaller combs retain the hair behind i the ears, leaving enough to cover the i latter. The forehead fringe is still seen and the chignon retains its vogue, partly owing to Its usefulness In showing the diamond combs so much in fashion. * * • Kid and leather shoes are despised by the fashionable, though they are giad enough to fall hack upon them in muddy weather and for wearing at race meetings. On other occasions the shoAs Tire made of very expen sive materials, often richly embroid ered. Even silk brocade is ornamen ted with stltchery for this purpose, and sometimes Jeweled as well. The fashionable heel is still extremely high and it, too, Is occasionally em broidered and jeweled, though the favorite is striped black and white, or gray and white, or black and red. As to stockings, they are so much in evidence at present owing to the re markable styles of dress that, as a natural consequence, they are of the most luxurious character. Striped or tartan silk and wool mixed are worn in the morning, but in the afternoon open-work lace, silk or thread are the only wear. * * • Feminine to a degree are the sim ple blouses of net and chiffon that are used on so many of the afternoon and evening frocks. Very often their sole adornment consists of a few tucks or plaits and a narrow' band of ribbon outlining the neck and, per haps. edging the sleeve. A few rhinestone or pearl buttons serve to close and to trim them at the same time. • • • Now’ that the art of dressing has j become a vital thing, and the fashion for vivid colors so dominant, wom en see what can be done by a judi cious adjustment of brilliant tones. I No longer need artists deplore the lack of coloring in women’s dress, for the feminine sex have advanced too far along the line of color educa tion to return now to drab tones. This fact is clearly demonstrated in the e'vening wraps. One beauty is a proof that a woman of limited Income can dress effective ly at reasonable outlay. This wrap is characterized by long graceful i lines and drapery, and Is developed In chiffon velours. It is a model that may be had in various pretty shades, this particular example being of rich petunia hue, and adorned with ring- I ed buttons of the fabric. The low- cut kimono sleeve is set into a seam, and at the extreme point of the long collar th > wrap fastens with a twist ed motif made of the material. The linings of these evening wraps are in many instances as beautiful I as the garments themselves, a fact which adds considerably to their in terest. For instance, a model of rose du Barrl corded crepe Is turned back at the hem, with the lining of Pais ley-patterned black and white chif fon. The fullness in the folds that gives the wrap its drapery in front is caught at the back with a motif of Greek design carried out In pipings I of the fabric. Collar and cuffs of I skunk add still another note of rich ness to the wrap. In a coat of Jap anese blue plush the tightened effect at the hem of the garment is effected at- the back by a broad band of hand- I some silk embroidery on gold plush. The consummation of this gorgeous color scheme lies in an entire skin of red fox worn carelessly across the arms and fastened on the left shoul- | der. Washington, Dec. 20.
