It appears that the pursuit of happiness and the pursuit of luxury are very much one and the same thing. Judging from the belongings of women who are able to indulge a taste for the beautiful. A study of those things that are made more for the purpose of being decorative than for being useful reveals an enticing play of fancy In their make up: witness the fans, the Jewelry and the hair ornaments of the hour. The matter of first importance with them is to be beautiful and. next to that, to be original and clever in design. Any number of fascinating decorations for the coiffure allure those who have occasion to wear them. Near ly all of them consist of a band supporting a standing ornament of some kind, and all sorts of sparkling and glowing and oobirful mau rials are used to make them Spangles, tinsels, rhinestones and pearls—the spangles In nil colon, as well as silver and gold—provide the glitter Tu’le and ribbon and flowen play their happy parts, and a faw soft and graceful feathers are given places of distinction on the coiffure ornaments of the day. or. rather, of the night. Jet in bands of spangles, in beads and tas-

everywhere. Two typical hair ornaments, de signed to meet the requirements of opera goers, are shown In the picture above. At the left a band of Jet a«qulns is combined with rhinestones, it la lined with satin, and the foundation band is wired along Its edges, to keep it smooth. Tho attond of rhinestones la sot above two row* of small Jet heads along the center These terminate In n small ornament and tassel -that serve to mount a spray of black feathers at the left side Black or white marabou is used instead of paradise feathers, on many bauds, and a ma-

jority of these ornaments do not ploy feathers at alL This is ly true of those designed tor younger women. At the right a little cap Is shown, made of small pearl beads strung on flue wire. Little Jet balls dangle about Us edge and n large Jet starshaped ornament serves to mount a crest of feathers at the front Pretty caps of white or black msline* ar<* mounted on bands covered with rows of rblnestonds or pearls and sometime* a latticework of these mock Jewels crosses tholr surface. Narrow black velvet ribbon is used to finish them, with long hanging loops at one side and a loose bridle under the chin. Narrow silver or g>ld game ribbons are wound over bands covered with silk for making many of the less expensive ornaments. Clusturs of small flowers, tinsel butterflies or ornaments. and tassels of beads finish them. Nothing Is prettier or better liked than spangled bands finished with butterflies to match. These come In silver and gold and In many colors. There are also wreaths of beautifully made flowers of chiffon or Salta, and with them malines In light colors la used for wired bows and airy ornaments.

She reached out and •*- traded a solitary Pink rose that bad lent lu beauty to his writing table. “1 think I need this in my hair." she said and tucked the flower among the riot of golden curls. After his smil* of approval she skipped off. It was quite time for the first guest to arrive fur her coming out party. Kennard watched her go and sjghai s trifle wearily. He was old be rood his thirty-five years in that he had. at the age of twenty-one. grate through * frightful train wreck which left htta mentally aged and physically lame. At twenty-five, his closed friend, older by many years than Kennard. had died, leaving a slim, delicate giri orphaned and oddly alone In the world. Kennard had adopted Nancy Vale bneause Vale bad left her to him. The doorbell rang many tlm«w and men and women flocked Into the grant Kennard drawing-room where Nancy, looking not more than fifteen to bar simple gray frock, welcomed htr guests. Often her big eyes glanced swiftly at the sUlrt leading from the library, but each time they returned to smiles and laughter with a hint of . wlstfulncss growing In their dear depth*. Nunky " was so absorbed in his story as to forge*, that he had promised to come In and Join her party. It was not antll silence rolgfied again in the great house and s stLall pink rose drooped wearily In Nancy’s curls that she tiptoed softly to the AF brary door. The quiet of that room told her that the story war- finished and that “Nunky" was smoking ths restful cigarette that always followed the completion of s good day's work. May I come In?" ah* quostloaed. already over the threshhold Kennard opened wide his eyes. "1 Just wanted to say good ntxnt.' she said softly, and stroked hack the lock of snow white hair that Ur across Hennird's broad forehead. “You grow more like your father every day.' he said in quick appreciation of her instinctive understanding. “Hr was the most unselfish and consider ate man that ever walked the earth.
