Felt and Jersey Webbing.

Felt and silk webbing are the ma
terials OF the ready-made bonnets and
hats for plain wear during the autumn,
while fine jet and lead beads are strung
on wires in large trellis-work patterns
for the smarter bonnets to be worn on
dress occasions. The felt bonnets have
a smooth cloth-Ske finish, and ara
shown in all the dark cloth colors to be
trimmed with ribbons, wool lace and
the new fancy feather clusters. Chenille
borders in open patterns like lace edge
the brim and crown of felt and velvet
bonnets; there are also applique velvet
figures in dots, stripes and palm leaves
on the brim Of dark felt bonnets. A.
novelty this season is felt cut in narrow
strips like braid and woven in open
patterns with straw braids of the same,
color, making an excellent combina-
ton for demi-season bonnets. Silk jer-
sey webbing is also used for English
hats; it is drawn over a felt foundation.
and is woven in seamless shapes, fitting
as smoothly as the jersey bodices; tho
brim is covered like the crown, but
needs some velvet as a binding or
facing to relieve the extreme plainness.
The %well-known English walking hats.
with the brim turned up on each side,
are seen in these jersey stutfs, also the
Henri Deux, with the brim closely
rolled upward in front and on each
side. while the very narrow back OF tho
brim is turned down. Harper's Bazaar.

Do you ever play at making believe? X,

If you've only a simple cotton gown, -,
"A little the worse for wear, >.
Just make believe that in all the town G
There isn't u dress so fair.
Instead of faded and scanty folds
o may fancy it rustling silk,
A warp that luster of moonlight holds,
u Il wool that is white as milk.
You may "make believe" with a bit of bread
And a cup of water poured,
That you sit with ease at Il royal spread,
Nor lack at the festal board.
The people who "make believe" Alright
Shorten the longest day:
Brighten the gloomiest hours with light,
And laugh their troubles away.
It's always foolish to sigh and shirk;
II anything must be done,
With an earnest purpose turn the work
To u make believe of fun. .
And if only you try this "make believe,'
The cheeriest play 1 know.
You'll find that a magic spell twill weave .
