SPRING HATS.

SPRING HATS.
A big poke for summer wear IL made
of Leghorn straw. The brim Is lined
with green velvet and a tangle Of wild
roses-thorny ones--is garlanded about
1t and hangs down behind.
Coiffures have been rearranged to
meet the requirements Of the low hats
and fiat bonnets. The bulk of hair is
massed at the back Of the head in heavy
loops and rouleaux, while in front short
bandeaux are combed out over the tenn
pies.
A poke bonnet in the reigning style
is covered with golden-b-own shaded
tulle, shirred loosely over wire frame.
Large pink chrysanthemums are mass
ed on the crown, a flower or two fall
ing down at the side TO mix with the
long tulle streamers.
A large iow-crowned Leghorn straw
has the brim behind turned up and
fastened upon the crown. Out from
beneath it start long sprays of Eng
lish ivy, which cover the hat almost
completely over. A big rosette of
very pale pink tulle is placed on one
side with dark feathered bird hid In
its folds.
A big portrait hat Of black velvet TO
be worn by a tall rosy blonde turns up
resolutely on one side, and its wide
brim comes well down over the face
in front. Broad silver lace edges it
about, and three OF four half plumes
of black ostrich feathers hang over the
crown mixed with white aigrettes.
There are bows of white satin ribbon
and long steamers Of white lisse.
Leghorn flats will be used for young
girls toilets, with wreaths OF flowers
and bows an streamers OF sash ribbon.
Fancy quilts of natural and artificial
tint are seen on hats thrust along
side, to be nautical, diagonal bows OF
MORE ribbon. Blue straws are trimed
with rose and chocolate ribbon; olive
Is put on maroon braids, and rose and
olive is delightful combination on a
black chip.
In hats the large Gainsboroughs OF
last year appear again, but under diff
ferent names. Turbans in soft straw

of the season is the fancy hat bent by
the milliner in any fashion her notion
suggests from the Leghorn fiat. To
generalize little, the hat has lower,
rounder crown than in three years past,
but its brim is wider, more defiant, and
more capable of all sorts OF bewilder-
ing effects.
FASHION NOTES.
New spring jerseys have sleeves full
at the top and wrist.
Bronze slippers ornamented with
gold or silver spangles will be in favor
of house wear.
Cheviots In wool goods made up
perfectly plain will be popular for
house and street costumes.
Nowadays the woman Of classic
features has her bodice shaped and
decorated as did the Greek girl.
Belts are becoming fashionable
again. They are used with a great
many evening dresses. made of broad,
heavy betting ribbon Of the same shade
as the gown. and held in place with an

So many things are pressing for
mention that a choice of subjects is
difficult; even a single line of gar
ments presents embarraSsments, as
the writer discovered while search
ing among the Fall 0vercoats for a
news item to interest chilly men.
There were a hundred different
sorts, each appealing for recognition
in its own peculiar fashion as spe-
cialIy adapted TO the want OF some
particular man. The prices ranged
all the way from $500 for plain,
serviceable Goats, to S35 for the most
elaborate siIk-Iined affairs. Being a
man of quiet taste, the chronicler was
first attracted 10 a black, soft, wool
diagonal al Si8. Hesitating between
that and a $40 siIk-faced Black Chew
lot, there Ioomed up pile of fancy
dark worsteds, various designs,
some silk-Iined, all reduced from
higher prices 10 $40.
Next he was almost inveigled into
selecting a broad-wale diagonal,
with nat-braided edges, a most
seductive coat and only S22. Better
judgment prevailed, however, and
the man of the quill was considering
whether TO choose a brown or blue
silk-Iined Crepe" (best value in the
store) al SIS, when he remembered
that he was only using his eyes for
the benefit Of others. Being poor
man and obliged TO wear his old
overcoat another season, he found il
indeed difficult TO roam through such
a stock without breaking the Tenth
Commandment.
