WrtnTKN FOR THTJ EfNTAT TtEPUKT-IC. Spring toques suggest nothing so much as Turkish turbans. ThU comparison does cot Imply any great beauty on the part of tho new hats. but. as a matter of fact, they are decidedly lovely. But one must buy one's Epring toque carefully that Is, It Is an easy matter to appear top-heavy, it tao toque Is too large. A tall woman may wear quite a large toque, while the short, plump woman looks sadly overloaded with ono or the larger rolled-up hats. Ilut a word to the wise Is sufficient, and the American woman has 1 tamed to bo very wise In the matter of selecting her millinery. She has learned that It !a well to consider her own btyle quite as well as to consider tho up-to-date air of her hats, and to bult the Utter to the former. It Is an oddity, certainly, to run strips of rough 6traw braid together with strips cf tulle or other gauzes, and build entiro toques, or the brims of them, of this pllabli stuff. Folds of tulle or chiffon are coiled around tho crown, and curve gracefully back from the fronts of the toques, that turn away from tho face. Lre. soft rosettes cr (loners are put In close clus ters at the sides of the toques. The hats for later season, or warm weather wear, are airily trimmed with big. loose, full-blown flowers und gauzes appllqued with lace designs. One beautiful white lace straw, that is as pliable as It Is possible for straw to bo, has a wide brim that droops gracefully back and front. The hat Is a. perfect mass of pale blue popplex A scarf of white silk gauze Is caught up on the crown among the popples, and one end comes down over the brim. Tho scarf has a. dainty pattern, dona tn lace Ap pliques. There are still some practical, little every day hats In rough btraws, both In the familiar walking-hat shape and with fulled crowns, or with 'rolling brims following the outline of more dressy hats. The holero and ccrstlet belt go prettily together. It Is a picturesque combination. in the tailor suits and separate Jackets it Is a relief to the eye tired of vivid colors In linings to And the underside of a gar ment matching In shade the oulslie. The soft, pretty shades of brown that are now o fsshlonablt. have their taffeta linings Just to match. A touch of white Is shown In many of the prettiest brown dresses. A lovely model j that has lust been brought over from Im- ' don Is of cedar brown. The -Mrt is stitched down In tucks at the front. The open hoiero lackct has a rounded collar and revers of heavy black satin, nhowlns a hem of white panne peeping out between the black satin and the brown edge. With this there Is worn a vest of white panne, tucked to look like corda, and the high collar, polntlns up behind the ears, match. thin. A nr.ttw Jabot of fine lace comes down to the waist, i SPRING HAT TnTH SPANGLED TAPFETA, RIBBON HOSES. GOWN TRIMMED WITH STITCHED STRAPPINGS. This gown Is duplicated in rtjla by a blue cloth with pray panne. The heavy laces are used everywhere. Deep yokes of heavy lace on crepe de Chine gowns are seen in the handsomest of dinner costumts. In the Etons for present-season wear many of the fronts have short stole end. Double revere turn back, sloptns off to be low tho waistline. Revere and collar are In one. waving a pretty rounded curve. Under very modish little Etons surplice vests formcl of rott folds of dotted peau I de sole are worn. A folded cirdle of tho t-llk in plain color goes about tho waist with narrow fringed ends at the back. A suit of this style Is In sible-brocn Mil ton. Tho double revers and cuff are of the brown cloth and cream cloth. The vest Is dotted In white. Among the new spring matorial. there are Khaki fabrics. These are a dull gray ish cream tint that Is enlivened by a com bination of white or colored silks. A very fetching Khaki gown is trimmed with stitched band? of white satin. A Now York fashion letter says: "In keeninc with the revived fashion of nlalt- lng dresi materials, the Norfolk Juckot will reappear en suite, with killed cos tumes or iweea. cnevioi, ineze, zioenn, camel's hair, serge and ether utility fa brics.

The pompadour docs not coincide with the Lans try knot, and women-.- hats, gowns, all are nuule with the chief Idea that of slcnder ne&s nnd blight. The hlch batrJrctumjr contributes not a little to this Impression. The pompadour frunl now is parted usually at one tddo und the hair arranged loosely to fall over one temple more than tho other. "Uanss" have not come back prccUely; but juu would not have a wom an's short hair hanging Btrallit around licr face, would ou? Indeed, you would pretvr It the least bit curled on an occasional iron. And that is iuA what women themsclv-s have chosen to do, compromising with the mode, which would Introduce short forehead curls again, and one's disinclination to bother once more with untld) "nam;." A noted coiffeur Is quoted as saying that all women with their hair dressed high are wearing fuiso hair. One wonders If ho dIJ not ay nearly alL it seems improbable that there b none anion: us whose natural cms are equal to the present task put upun them by the fashions. Yet. to Juuse from the endless nun-bcr of cunningly contrive!

It Is charac teristic of all theso emnlccements that they are made most cunningly to serve their In tended purpose. No switch stems are permltteJ to appear anywhere, listenings are done securely to combo, to long hairpins or to ornament.-!, t-o that in no human probability accident should result from their use. Pompadoura nearly all uro parted at the side now. And this requires usually an under piece of naturally waved hair as cushion. It. too. Is parted at one side, and replaces tho wretched rat. which may be brought now for 19 cents on tho notion counter. l'ruin tho sorts of thing offered. It !

What is cream of tartar ? Cream of tartar, which enters so largely into the manufacture of Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder, is a pure fruit acid, the product of the grape. In the process of wine making, when the juice of the grape ferments, the crude tartar, which is called argol, is deposited on the sides of the wine cask. After the wine is drawn off, this crystal deposit is removed, dried and exported to America, where refined, it produces the snow-white crystals of Cream of Tartar. Fruit acids are accounted by hygienists the most important of the elements of the food of man, and of these the acid of the grape is most prominent. Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder is not only the most efficient and perfect of leavening agents, but owing to its con stituents is likewise promotive of health.

Often It Is a memento of foreign travel, or n heirloom put to a novel use. For example. a Philadelphia woman has preserved her gre-vt-grandmother's knlttlcg case is this fashion. The knitting case, being of Ivory, carved with exquisite Chinese workxaa- . ship, makes a very artistic handle. Another handsotno parasol stick shows the head of a. bulldog:, carved out of ebony. with a. white lvorj" muzzle. The knobs are carved with monogram and crest. A fourth Is made of gold and mother-of-pearl to represent the bamboo, with a. gold knob of x mas-iivo proportions. A very curious parasol handle Is of JP" anese origin. It is of sandalwood, carvd throughout lt3 length with Japanese fis urcs.
