A Fifth Avenue MTIIiner Discourses on the
Derby for WOmen.


YES. IL is true that derby hats are fash
ionable for young women" said a Fifth
avenue milliner to a reporter for The EVEN
ING WORLD, and she added. but I don't
expect they will be sold to any very great
extent.
There are people who always admire the
derby and enjoy wearing it, and it may be
said that the derby is never out Of style but
at times 1t is in greater demand than at pres
ent.
The women who wear derbys are gener.
ally independent and strong-minded and
they don't care if some of their friends do
say that they have a masculine appearance.
Derbys will be worn more in the fall than at
present, / am inclined to think.
AN. that have been ordered here have
been trimmed with yelling or feathers, which
made them look more suitable for ladies'
wear.
- never wore q derby and I never will.
Furthermore, I prefer to sell other styles to
my customers. I don't think the derby is
becom ng to o woman. and it is not probable,
in my opinion, that the derby will ever lead
the style for American women"

seemed imminent, a young man spraug
forward. seized tho little fodder without any
apparent thought of his own risk and bore it
safely to its mother.
The woman , gratefully receiving her little
one and recovering from the paralysis of ter
ror, tearfnlly begged for the name of the

And with that he passed on his way.
But a telltale whisper came to The EVENING
