It is prob- able that a weakness of the will is a more important cause than weakness of the muscles. Round shoulders are not likely to be outgrown, as the victims usually become permanently and structurally set in the faulty position, with flat- tened chest walls and distorted fig- ures.

There are things purely ornamental and there are things useful and ornamental. The latter two qualities combined are always successful, and experience shows that we cherish a love for the things which are ornamental, whether they are useful or not. A lot of things have been designed for the little infant. These include armlets, that is, little garters for the sleeves, small rosettes, to be fastened with the tiniest of safety pins to baby's dress, and splendid blanket. bows with which the robe or blanket is decked out. Beside these furbish- {ngs for the little infant there are any number of dainty turbelows made fog. the tiny girl. = Ay TReEHS I A blanket-bow is shown in the ple ture, made of pink satin ribbon four and one-half to five inches wide. It consists of nine loops, each one knotted at the top. Each loop is about seven inches deep, after the knot is tied. They are tacked together at the center, where the ends are tied with & single knot. One of the ends is cut half the length of the other and both are trimmed in a diagonal line. The little armlets are made of & Darrow satin ribbon in either light pink or blue. They make a very accept- able present for the mother of the newly-arrived baby. The sleeves, in the clothes for little infants, are cut longer than the child’s arm in order to accommodate its rapid growth. These little armlets hold the sleeves up and add a charming little decora- tion to the baby's dress at the same time. They are made by.shirring rib- bon over flat elastic bands and are finished with full rosettes made of knotted loops of the ribbon. The loops are each an inch and a balt deep. When the baby girl has grown old enough to need something to hold her hair in place, a hair band like that shown in the picture marks the be- ginning of her use of hair ribbons. This is made, like the armlet, of narrow satin ribbon. Ribbons an inch or a little less in width answer the purpose better than vothers. For the hair band one must meas. ure the little one’s head and make a circlet of flat elastic, just long enough to hold the hair in place. Half of this band, that is, that portion which is ta 80 over the top of the head, 18 cov- ered with ribbon shirred on. The re- mainder is left uncovered, as it goes under the back hair. At each side, Just above the ears, full rosettes are made of the ribbon in the same way as described for the armlets, except that the loops are about two and a half inches deep. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. LATEST TIPS AS TO STYLE New Things That Have Been Ob served Recently and That Are of Real Importance. The cartwheel hat is the very lat est thing in millinery and offers an ag le varlety from thq gternal Shal Zut of i%ez sumgefi ‘Tfipa ne;l cartwheel has a wide brim extending straight out from a rather low, cont. cal crown, and both brim and crown are covered with velvet or silk. These bats, in black velvet, have huge white begonias posed against the crown in front. Creased skirts are an odd whimsey of fashion this summer. The wide circular tunics of linen, worn over nan row, straight skirts, are ironed in creases from belt to hem, which gives the tunic a ribbed effect suggestive of plaiting. Pussy willow silk tunics al- 80 take to this creased idea admira- bly. Tunics of serge or mohair— which {s very fashionable this season —are harder to crease satisfactorily. Sheer blouses of white organdie are made novel and interesting by buttons of silver or gilt. Naturally such but tons do not launder successively, and they must be rubbed up now and then to keep them bright and sparkling. They do not require so secure sewing on, however, as the button that is real- ly used for a fastening, for the mod- ern blouse or bodice 18 provided with concealed snap-fasteners, which are more easily and quickly manipulated than either buttons or hooks and eyes. With the white tailleur worn for yachting, white buttoned boots of buckskin are considered more correct than pumps. On board the yacht the high-heeled buttoned shoes may be ex- changed for rubber-soled deck shoes, but these are not correct for shore wear. Harrisville, W. Va., s offering a cash bonus for every baby born there. Designed for the Older Women OING on a theory that “a woman is as old as she looks, and as young as she feels,” women past middle age, in these days, choose hats to suit their appearance. A careful choice of mil- linery subtracts some years from the wearer. But it is a mistake to ex- pect too much of hats in the matter of lending youth to the face. Spe- cialists in designing tax their ability to the utmost to achieve millinery which shall be rich and brilliant, as it should be for the woman of ma- ture years. When the mistake is made of choos- ing a hat which has been designed for a young face, the older woman de- feats her purpose and looks ridicu- lous. By giving time and careful con- sideration to her selection she will be able to find something peculiarly adapted to herself. The three hats illustrated here, al- though photographed on a youthful model, are intended for elderly wom- en. They are moderately large and fit comfortably on the head. The ex- amples shown are in black velvet, but will be equally attractive made up in the soft, rich colors of which the season provides a wonderful display. While on the subject of colors it is worth tvhfl. noting that black is far from being the best choice for the woman of middle life. The pos- sessor of a fresh complexion and gray or white hair looks particularly well in black. For dark-skinned persons strong blues prove to be most success- ful. The only safe way to choose is to experiment with shades and tones of the different colors and select that which harmonizes best with the eyes, hair and complexion. The face veil, which is better de- scribed as a complexion veil, is the best friend of the elderly woman, as a finishing touch to her millinery. The great liking for gold and silver cloth, jet and metallic effects in flow- ers which this season has developed make it easy for the milliner to pro- duce brilliant hats. The richest of brocades and the handsomest of plum- age belong to the oldest women. In the hands of the expert specialist they have been worked up into hats that are the envy of youth. Among other shapes than those shown here are some having flat! This gives an opportunity for brims. colored facings. Colored facings are a point of vantage that the older wom- an must not lose sight of when she elects to choose a black hat.
