, postscript
A modern Plata
has given voice to
the opinion that tha
) most eternally
1 feminine feature of
femininity is not its
curiosity, but its
love of noveltv.
Curiosity, to say the least, is a. quality
of ill repute, but the search for novelty
betokens an alertness and an interest
in the world at large which is bound
to make for improvement. So it be
hooves us, as feminine beings, to bow
our grateful acknowledgment , to tha
Plato in question for his contribution
to our moral status.
Novelty in every direction forces it
self upon one's attention in the Lipman
Wolfe store these days. On every sida
one's eyes are greeted with a blaze of
color in which the new and bizarre are
mingled with the older favorites which
fashion cannot cast aside.
At the ribbon
counter, for instance,
they are showing the
new fuchsia tints
(which verge nearer
to cerise than to any
other color whose ac
quaintance 1 have
made), and yet they
are not cerise, but
something newer a late cry.
The new hats have it, too. It is a
long time since I have seen a millinery
display so full of novelty as the col
lection of French and American hats
at this shop.
There is a new turn here, and
new twist there, and a bit of trimming,
new and rare in itself, so unexpectedly
placed that you are filled with delight
and wonder how the thing was accom
plished with such apparent ease and
grace. .
One little walking hat, which, by tha
way, was of English origin, was nota
ble for its very regularity of outline.
It was o deep, violet felt with a satin
facing'"on '"the closely fitting brim. Two
beautiful wings, purple in color, yet
gleaming like those of a blackbird,
were; fastened one at each side.
Mercury wise. 1 London chic is here
a-plenty in the tailored street hats.
In the Art Nee
dlework Depart
ment, also on tha
second floor, I
found a perfectly
inspiring amount of
novelty.
A collection of
quaint tapestry and
chintz things were
novel in spite o f
their quaintness. " i :
Little trays and boxes to adorn
one's dressing table were covered with
lovely flowered tapestry and finished
with dull gold braid. Some charming
old prints, faintly colored, were cov
ered with glass and framed, as it were,
with an upstanding chintz-covered rim,
to form a tray for milady's dresser.
Whole sets of chintz, covered things in
pink and white or blue and white com-'
binations suggested dream-like rooms in.
pink or blue.
A most delightfully novel idea is the
"old ivory," which is used as a foun
dation for the litde basket pin cushions
and jewel cases which are so beautiful
as to be absolutely necessary to our.
happiness. This material is nothing
less than heavy, silver plate, thickly
coated with a warm, ivory white and
with its raised garlands of roses and
violets faintly tinted in pinks and
blues, after the most approved French
fashion. One of these lovely little
baskets or boxes with its puffy satin,
cushion' or lining to match madam's
favorite color scheme, is quite the daint
iest addition that could be made to her.
