Summer Bonnets.

White bonnets prevail for dress this
summer. OF seven new hats prepared
for q young lady's outfit for Newport,
five were white. the sixth was n blue
coaching hat trimmed with terra-cotta
roses, and the seventh was n large
brown straw hat for travelling. OF the
five white bonnets, two were very small
capotes. IN was an English poke. and
two we're large round hats. One Of the
capo,es is of pearl lace, pearl beads and
crushed pink roses, while the other is
Tuscan straw. with a chaudroH velvet
Alsacian bow and strings. and n cluster
of salmon-colored carnations on the
left side. The English poke of fine
Milan straw had ficelle lace and butter
cups for garniture. The largest round
hat, shelving downward on the forehead.
was of split straw. trimmed with many
white ostrich feathers and a scarf of en-
broidered white silk muslin. while the
other. Of Manila. had long thick cream
and yellow plumes.
The crinkled silk China Grape and
white silk muslin. with embroidered
dots. threfoils. diamonds and rings, are
the favorite scarfs for fine straw hats.
and are also used in small bonnets. The
muslin is CT bias, and is passed around
the crown in full vet soft and fat folds.
This may be accompanied by either
flowers or feathers, but flowers and
feathers seldom appear on the same hat
The ostrich plumcs now used are all
what are called ..made plumes;' that is.
they are doubled or tripled in order. to
have them very full. and this fullaess
does away with the necessity of having
them very much curled; hence they are
rs useful after being moisiened or at the
seaside as elsewhere. The demi-long
plumes and short thick tips are more
useful for the present STYLES of trimming
than very long Mercutio plumes. Breast
feathers with the head attached are very
stylish for trimming the straw and vel

but wings are no longer in favor. The
stripped coque plumcs mounted like
breasts are called seaside feathers be-
cause they are perfectly straight vet
quite full. and have M curl to be taken
out bydampness. Another made feath-
er useful in all temperatures has che
nile mixed with the tips Of ostrich
feathers. For fine flowers. carnations
are shown in a single bunch with long
stems, costing ten dollars the cluster.
These are OF the fashionable salmon
shades. and are used on black and on
white bonnetS There are also velvet
