puhs of bias fraille laid in tiny side pleats sur
round some crowns and short streamers o.
ribbon hang behind others have two ruche:
of iaille, bias, an inch wide, gathered in 4
cord in the middle, and showing q lining o
contrasting color agalu, there are punches o
fan pleatings. or half rosetes of faille ribbon
standing against the crown. Alillner's folds
cords, and piping soften the hard outlines o
straw fronts, and clusters of ribbon loops or

tied under the chin, but lace strings are to-
becoming and pleasant for summer wear TO b
