duck middles and Pan-

tor a long winter rest and In
laces appear good warm—and
smart—winter sport togs. The
who can look back twenty
yearn, marvels at ths modern sport
outfit an average girl considers es-
sential for'a winter season. The girl
of twenty years ago had no sport
wardrobe at all. In summer she
plsyed tennis 'and went boating In
gingham of* dotted muslin—and even
her tennis skirt was to sweep the
clay court when she stooped for a
downward stroke. In winter she put
on mittens if she was going skating—
but otherwise wore her ordinary out-
door costume. That was about all
thera wa& to It
| But look at the sport wardrobe a
modern young woman must have!

nothing of a'complete motoring outfit
which the maid of two decades ago
knew nothing about. What a lot of
pleasure those more formally dressed
maidens of the earlier generation
missed, to be sure! They tcrok all the
share In Jolly winter sports that Con-
ventionality and opportunity allowed
them—girls were girls nnd youth was
youth, even In those more sedate days
—but they missed the happiness of
donning real sport clothcs, a real Joy
as everybody who has worn these free-
and-easy and pictureequo habiliments
can attest.
Smart Sport Girls At The Football
Matches
In November, of course, the chief
outdoor interest Is football. Only the
boys can play—but the *lrls can look bnlivla with ni'itrla coller and c .flx j

)I1ERB is something fascinating
in the very word "tarn," which
conveys, the idea of headgear ln-
' formal and comfortable; pic-
turesque, dashing, unconventional. For
C.enturles ,tha tara o'shanter has typi-
fied in headgear all that was happy.
Irresponsible and picturesque as con-
trasted with what was .formal, stiff
and conventional. One draga on a
good old tami one "puts on" a hat.
Oet out your beloved tarn and you
are sure you are going to have a
good time. Put on your formal dress-

boys and girls could wear them, and
growing girls In their teens could take
a chance on tams If an occasion was
extremely informal; but grown-ups
never thought of donning tams.
Grown-ups In ordinary walks of life,
that Is. Of course, the tarn has been
popular with some kinds of people
from time Immemorial. The velvet
tarn of the French artist, for Instance,
a familiar sight In the artist's quarter
of Paris nnd at prtlst-frcquented
places In Normandy. The artist calls
It a "beret," but It Is n tarn, none the
less, dragged over sideways In the
good old tam fashion in that devil-
may-care way that makes a tain no
saucy and fascinating.
Then thero were the blue tams of
that valiant company calling them-
selves the "Blue I>ovlls." You all re-
member those rakish and picturesque
blue tams these splendid soldiers wore.
In Scotland the tam o'shanter la an
Institution. It Is worn by the laird of
tho castle In hla walks abroad through
moor and fen; and even old chaps in
their seventies wear the bonny tam
with grace and dignity. Fngllsh and
American golfers will not quite adopt
the tam, but they have their soft cloth
golf caps made as much like it as they
can—and wear them dragged over In
the delightful tammlsh way.
A season or two ago the sport girl
adopted the tam for her very own—
and now all the milliners are trying
to evolve dress hats that have tam
characteristics. These tam-lmitatlons
they call berets, a la the French artist,
but to paraphrase a familiar couplet;
They may hide, they may alter the
idea, if they will
The tam Inspiration will cling to It
; stui!
For Irtstinee, this autumn a popular
Paris milliner produed a big draped
"beret" of tete de negre velvet with a
spangled ornament holding two saucy
red quills across the front and In spite
of the goodly prlca asked for It, It
was no more nor less thafJ a velvet
tam o'shanter. i^ewis is especially
fond of the tam motif snd shows many
draped berets that repose on the head

Suede I,Ike Is The Fabric That Makes
Tills Good Looking Tam Which May
He Worn In Town Since It Is IjCss
Hough-Ami-Heady Than The Wor-
sted Sort,
In exactly the way n knitted worsted
tam does. 0%*e large beret Is of brown
velvet with a huge disc of Jet beads
embroidered-on the top of the soft
crown. Another brov u velvet model
from Lewis has tiny t l<"d quills stick-
h r Out all around the ttnir brim on
which the big tam crown rests.
All this is just to show how popular
the tam Is—of course, in sport wear, it
occupies Its proper place and reaches
its jauntieat and most becoming best.
Several pictures of now sport turns are
presented, but these are only picked
examples. Thero are hundreds and
hundreds more, not to speak of all the
fetching tains young women are knit-
ting and crocheting for themselves.
Tho white angora wool tam has a
new line. It rises higher on the head
before the crown begins to drape over;
in fact the big white tassel does most
of the dt iping. This higher tam will
bo more becoming to some women
than the flat, broad tam. and it has a
new style of Its own. With tho white
worsted sweater and whlto knitted
gloves It makes an Ideal combination
for the skating girl, and an angora
scarf In checked red and white adds a
telling touch of color. In a white tam
and white sweater a pretty girl ts
charming indeed, and white tams and
sweaters are particularly in favor this
season. Sometimes a white angora
«scarf with fringed ends accompanies
Vlio white cap and sweater outfit—
what could be lovelier for youth on a
day when snow is drifting?
A new tam of fluffy worsted has a
rolled brim and rather snug crown and
white wool pompons aro placed at in-
tervals around tho crown, against a
band of black velvet ribbon. But ono
likes best the tam that runs true to
type—with lines. .^It trimming, its
salient characteristic. Tams aro In nil
colors but the vivid colors are not
fancied as much as softer hues like
olive, heather, citron, sago green nnd
certain tans. Now and then a scarlet
or nn orange worsted tam ndds a point
of vivid interest In an outdoor fcather-
I ing of young women, but tho quieter
j colors are much better liked and are
N tler taste. Of course dainty tam*
tde from pure white ones—are im-
| poiislbla from a stylo standpoint. The
girl in a baby-blue tam, or a pale
lavender one. or worse still—a rose
pink one, would have a silly look. Her
too dainty tam would not correspond
with the ,sturdy, rough-nnd-rcady
sport togs flh wears. ™
Newest of tho new is the ostrich
wool tam. One of thes^ is pictured.
The looped ostrich wool is new this
season and Is used for caps of this
Sort, for bags to match and for trim-
ming on sweaters. The wool comes

The New Sandwich Sport Stilt

jacket to be worn with riding breechea

breeches, If occasion demands. * Tfca

cortume shows the neat lines of the

horse shows. The slashed skirt fal!.-

rough going. Tho breeches are lea'h-
er faced at the kneo and end under
leather puttees. This sport girl c;'n
sit in her saddle or swing from her
horse and tramp through thb woods,
gun in hand. She wears one of tho
high-collared soft linen outing shirts,
you see; and j^er headgear and foot-
gear are correct and proper acces-
sories of hor costume. Any woman
might be glad to possess such an out-
door costume as this; smart, service-
able. comfortable and sturdy.
Skating Dresses Of Pile Fabric
The most arresting model on today's
paga Is the picturesque skating cos-
tume Which with its odd collar and
wlng-lik? sleeves gives its pretty won-
er a fascinating, bird-semblance. Tho
short Circular skirt turns under at
the edge and attaches itself bloomer
fashion to the knees, and the jacket
or blouse, aa you may choose to call
it. Is in graceful surplice effect with
sashends at the back. Itlouse and
skirt aro of pile fabric, tho blouse of
kerami karaket jwhlch has a lustrous
surfaco rcscrnijlmg broadtail; and the
skirt of plaid panoply, a plush Hko
material which comes in rich, subdued
colorings. The little round cap Is of
the blouse material so that cap nml
peaked collar blend into a sort of bird
headdress, extremely fetcli'ng when a

peeps

Try a Gold Bath This Way.
K\V people really love cold baths
on winter mornings. They love
tho wonderful sensation of vital-
ity and visor that' follows a good
reaction from the cold plunge and
hrirk rubdown. but it is to bo doubted
if nnvbody really loves the plunge it-
self into frigid water on an ley winter
morn.
A very great doctor recommends a
way of taking a cold bath that gives

room and her bath room. It does not

pleasing enough in texture to satisfy

novelist in one of his latest books—a
best seller this year, one of those
thrilling mystery stories of nples and
secrot service agents—makes his spy-
villain remark: "There is nothing
stronger than wet linen." And forth-
with the villain dampens tho hand-

In tho tlrst place test tho cold bath
with a thermometer. Cold wafer from
the faucet In summer time would be
about CO degrees temperature, perhaps
higher If tho day were very warm.
Thero Is no reason why In winter ypn
should Jump Into any,colder bath, yet
the bath will be much colder if you lei

with tho outer air. Test your hath

warm water to make the temperature
about 10.
Don't get Into tho tub. Loan far
over It and with a great big sponge
souse the cold water on your faco
and neck. Then on each arm and
then on your chest. Breathe deeply
all the time. Next squeeze out tho
sponge and bathe abdomen and hips..
Put one leg Into the tub and splash It'
well with the cold water. Step out
with this leg and put the other leg in
the tub. I.nst of all squeeze ifc sponge-
ful of water down the length of your
spine. •
Give yourself a good rubbing all
