Show LA Word or Two About Caps nril'HOUT any claim to originality If to aid thorn theso two boudoir bou-doir caps unblushtngly call attention to themselves as noteworthy. Thoy nro examples of what tho new laces bring to morning caps In tho way of attractiveness and grace. If theso laces and nets wero less supple, thoy would not fall In such soft rudlcB, and If they wore too sheer thoy would not mako such successful plalttngB and hair coverings. Tho cap at the loft has a full soft crown of all-over laco nnd a frill of luco about tho face which widens tc ward tho back, whoro It covers tho neck. It Is adjusted to tho head by tho elastic cord that Is run In a casing on tho under sldo whero tho frill jotnB tho crown. A few little roses of chiffon, chif-fon, Joined by long stems of sllk-cov-orcd cord, waudor aimlessly over tho crown. h. The cap at tho right Is mado of flno net, hnvlng a broad panob.of laco along tho center of tho .crown running run-ning from front to back. Tho frill Is of plaited net and the cap Is adjusted with a small elastic cord. Narrow satin ribbon Is laid in a so rlos of short puffs across the front of t tho cap, ending at each side In a short, 1,'olntcd end. These aro tho simplest j of caps. Innocent of wires. Thero aro any number of others, In all sorts of shapes, all suggesting tho hour of golden gold-en leisure spout at home. Thoy are only a part of tho story of caps, which contlnuo to flourish In tho smllo of favor fa-vor which the dancing girl still bo-stows bo-stows upon them. But tho dancing cap la really another story. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. |
