Wear clothes that are becoming, no matter what your neighbor neigh-bor is wearing. When you start out to do this, you will find that your milliner, your dressmaker, the salesperson who sells you your shoes, hats, gloves and other costume accessories, even the beauty parlor expert ex-pert who waves your hair and plucks your eyebrows and. recommends the tint of face powder best suited to your complexion are all working along the play-up-your-individual-self idea. This "be pretty" spirit is particularly particu-larly encouraged In the millinery shops and departments. Not for years have fashions In headwear been so flattering and so versatile. This season's sea-son's displays invite you to select any type from a tight fitting toque to a huge brim or a sailor, or a poke bonnet bon-net or a picturesque profile hat, or a cunning little Watteau perked up on a bandeaux, or a tricorne, or a bl-corne bl-corne if these best suit your style. By way of diversity in modish millinery mil-linery we are illustrating herewith three distinctive types. Comes from Paris this interesting trio. The arresting ar-resting poke bonnet is of yellow straw. The feathers which trim the sides and back are brown. Never a spring in our memory has brown been so outstanding as it is this season. The present modes call not only for brown hats and other accessory touches in brown, but the use of brown with white a white jacket and hat with a brown frock or vice versa, or in anyway any-way that the combination may be achieved. Has your milliner told you of the vogue for Milan straw? The emphasis placed on this fine and refined straw THREE OF THE NEW SPRING HATS such a fascinating chapter to the story of evening wraps and wraps to wear over the charming lingerie afternoon aft-ernoon gowns which are In promise for later on. They are audacious, they are pert, they are happily frivolous are these little hip-length jackets and caped novelties made of sheer dainty velvet either in black or bright colors. Some have touches of white fur, and some haven't. The latter make up for their lack of fur by being shirred and puffed, maybe ruffled or styled with a piquant scarf. Some are wrap-around types. Most of them are, that is if they do not take a notion to adopt flaring peplums. There's no end of novelty expressed in their sleeves. Now that summer is coming on the little cape sleeve is especially popular as it slips on so easily over the crisp organdies and frilly cbilTons with which it is worn. The models in (he picture are two selected from among a multitude of intriguing types. The simple hip length wrap to the left is of sheerest sheer-est black velvet lined with pale blue georgette, the sleeves are elbow length and the long tics of self-velvet are also lined with the georgette which is the same blue as is the silk net of which the dress Is fashioned.

The forecast of transparent velvet for spring and summer Is being realized in the cunning little j't-yuet j't-yuet ..s and coatees which are adding ersc the skirt and which elaborate the bodice as well. Tuck treatments similar to this are made quite a feature fea-ture of the mode The cape sleeves which grace the ermine-trimmed wrap are typical of the trend In the newest models.
