GREY HAIR FASHIONABLE.
Fashions in coiffure this year run to white hair, it is declared. There is nothing more piquant than a youthfnl face framed in grey, and the fashion has been set by Mile. Jeanne Roily, who in a recent play at tho Atheneo covered her auburn locks with a whito perrtiquo. But there is a practical reason behino. it all. The stock of false hair is getting exhausted in tho world. The supply, formerly so prolific from Brittany, from tie region round Aries, and from certain parts of tho Pyrenees, has run out. There might be hope from China wero it not for the fact that the. Celestials a.re sacrificing their pig-tails. Thus a virtue will bo mado of. necessity, and smart women of to-morrow will wear their hair, powdered, that is to say, unless Nature saves them the trouble.
