IK- ' : - M3ss : Frivols, aacii. V The Terraced Coiffure Nof AH Her Own. By Any Means, But One Would Not Know It. WHEN you take your hair down to night measure lta length from acalp to the tip of the ends. If it is not fully three feet long In other . words, if It is not long enough to alt on. only the hairdresser and an expensive one at that can pro. - vide you with the wherewithal for the new turban coif '. fure. For now the tress- . es must be wrapped meekly round and round the head, ex- . actly . as a South Carolina mammy ad- . Just her bandanna, or an East Indian gentlerr.an girds up .his cranium for a troll abroad. It takes a deal of hair, however, to make a turban almost a yard of hair, and if one has not been born with the requisite health and en duing wealth of tresses, and since they cannot be achieved in sufficient profu sion, they must be thrust upon one's head with hairpins. For while money may make the mare go, alas! it will not , wake the hair grow, and great thereof Is the profit of the hairdressers. Tons and tons of hair are coming In now from France, Germany, Russia and Italy, where the peasant women are willing to exchange their crowns of : glory for golden American dollars. Whether the quaint starched head dresses with which these women have been wont to cover their denuded polls are going out of fashion, or whether a greater sophistication has made them less anxious to sacrifice their natural beauty for trinkets and clothes, the young peasant girls are not now as eager as they were to sell their pretty hair, and in consequence the prices for false hair have gone up consider ably within the last two years. Five things are necessary for the new turban head-dress besides what natural hair one has on one's head to tart with. These are: Two switches In the required three-quarter yard length, costing at least ten dollars each; a fluffy fringe to soften the front view at two dollars; a bunch of bob bing curls to pin on top two dollars mora for these; and lastly, the impor ant foundation of the whole structure, the beehive frame of light wire over 'which tae turban is wrapped. This brings the total cost of the turban up to thirty-five dollars a tidy sum tu be ure for one's coiffure. This is only the Initial cost, however, for a turban halrdressing, like an auto mobile, is not half oo expensive to buy as it is to maintain. The long switches and fluffy curls, as well as the natural hair, must have unremitting attention to keep the hair from becoming sleek, stiff and heavy for, while the wrapped turban seems as flat as a hair effect could pos sibly be. It muft in reality be full of tlufl and soft sprii.y to look right. Oily, mat ted hair wraprnd In turban fashion would make a woman look as though she had lost her bathing cap ui.dtr a ait and come up with dauk locks sticking fast tu her scalp.

A hat of course la fatal to the turbaa halrdressing. The arrangement of curia at the back Is too high for the modern quashed-down chapeau, and, besides, the beehive cage would never lit into even the crown of even the ' huge hats In vogue The Charming Rolled Coiffure .With Its Fillet this Fall. The turbaa coiffure is intended for evening wear, and to speak the truth only the charitable glamor of artificial light and the utmost assistance of ravish, ingly becoming cos tumes can make the bizarre lines of this new halrdressing be coming. Sometimes the turban wrapping, In stead of being done with hair switches, is made of oft, twisted ribbon, which are wound around the head along with the natural hair, a bunch of the likely little curia tumbling about on' top. One of these ribbon turbans is shown, and tho effect. While a bit suggestive of "such a headache," Is really rather Interesting and chio over a lovely face. It will be noted that the waves of hair are drawn down very low over the forehead almost covering eyebrows and ears. This In deed Is the secret of becomlngness In the turban style. Chaplets of leaves, laurel wreaths and the like are being wound across the head In this turban fashion, and a glowing dark beauty made a sensation at an out-of-town dinner-dance the other night, with a Bacchante-like wreath of grapes bound about her black locks in chaplet effect. The terraced halrdressing Is made In the same manner as the turban style, ex cept that the switches are braided softly and loosely and are wound closely to gether so that one rises above the other, : the whole structure blending into the in evitable bunch of curls at the back. The whole secret of this terraced halrdressing is to have the braids thick and soft, so that the mass of hair will maintain its position on the head. This high halrdressing Is said by the coiffeurs to be the forerunner of the tow ering Marie Antoinette coiffure. This lady wore at her coronation a massive structure of powdered puffs and curia, reaching two feet above . her heal and expressing three sentiments. Grief for her deceased father-in-law, the .King, was touchlngly told by a black crepe bow at one side. On the other the em blem of her husbands house offered a delicate tribute to France, whjle on too rose her own white plumes of Austria. All Safe. (FoutVs Companion. Irving was playing "Macbeth," and ha had reached the place where Macbeth orders Banquo's ghost to leave the ban quet board. "Hence, horrible shadow unreal mockery, hence!" said Irving, in his most tragic tones, and with a convulsive shud der he sank to the ground, drawing hit robe about his face. On Banquo withdrawing, a voice came from high up in the gallery: "It's all right now, Enery; gone." The Best Part. (Kanta City Star.) , Toung James had never heard his aapa speak In public, and It was thought time to take him to hear his father deliver a lecture. During the evening a stray dog which ventured upon the platform was disposed of as grsfefully as possible.
