exploited, and where wo try to fall in
with Its exaggerated jaco wo not only

Thero Is a demnnd for economy In nor

Dutleu of First Bridesmaid
To ths Sditor of U'omoit's Pom;
Dear Madam I am a.gtrl eighteen years old,
light eoniplexlonsd and have dark hair. I will
be first bridesmaid nsxt month for a frlsnd
of mine and would Ilk to know what color drese
to wear. It Is. gotntr ,to be a church wedding
and I would like to know. If It, la proper to
wear a hat or Just a band on the head Also
what I the duly ot the first brldesmsld.
M. S,
Pink, blue or canary yellow would prob
ably be the best colors to choose from,
but If thero are other bridesmaids, consult
with them aa to what color they will wear,
as It Is very Important to have colors
harmonize at a Wedding. Deep colors are
never very pretty, and It la better not to
use combined colors. Yea, wear a hat at
a church wadding- by all means. The first
bridesmaid or maid ot honor Is always
ready to assist tha bride by holding her
bouquet during the ceremony, arranging
her train when she turns to walk down the
aisle and, If she has a, veil over her face
gstng up the aisle, the maid of honor takes
It oft or throws It back after the ceremony,
before the procession goes down the aisle.

to disguise his Interest In this woman, to

DO YOU WAVE
THE MOST BECOMING WAV?;
Kit T.tIP.PR7.tA Tinnr X4. ,
By LUCREZIA BORI
frtma Donna of th
HAIttDnnssiNO Is very Important nt
all times, but particularly nt present
yehen most of the modish lints expose the
hair. If the WntteaU hat, tip-tltted over tho
ncie and raited high at tho back. Is to
ha becoming, the hnir
must be well groomed.
If the plctur hot Is to
enhance our charms
there must bo soft
ringlets about tho fore
head nnd over tho
ears. Kew of the new
est hats will stand the
closo arrnngement of
straight hair that has
been In voguo the Inst
winter.
The hnlr must bo
waved, not crimped.
They nro two entirely
different things. Waved
i,uc it nz I A UOltl
hair that rs soft and fluffy makes n most
becoming framo for the nvcrngo face With
older persons this walng of tho hnlr lifts
yenrs from their faces. The nrrnngement
of the hair means so much; If by taking
the trouble to wave It you can Improve
your appearance, surely this Is compensa
tion enough.
In answer to the question, "Docs It Injuro
tho hair to curl It7" I sny "yes" If It Is done
with a heated Iron, but "no" If It Is waved
In tho proper manner.
I never recommend tho use of a heated
Iron. Many hends of beautiful hair have
been ruined by tho tienrlng curler. Tha
Intense heat robs tha hair of Its life and
sheen, nnd It finally breaks off Into In
numerable short lengths, or falls out at
the roots,
There aro any number of patent curlers
In the shops from which you can mnko
a Detection that will not do tho' hair the
slightest Injury. Avoid tho curler which
has hinges or sections In which tho hair
enn bn caught nnd broken Choose a
curler made of one pi ceo of material npd
of a thickness to produce tho typo ot wno
you desire. Soma hnlr appears host with
a broad wave, while another colfturo will
be mora becoming If tho wavo Is closer.
If your hair Is Inclined to vac naturally,
I consider It no less than n small crime
to curl tho hair artificially and spoil tho
natural wave.
When 'you havo provided yourself with
the right kind ot curlers, brush tho hnlr
thoroughly, for It Vihould not be brushed
moro than Is necessary to nrrnngo It after
being unrolled from tho curlers.
