Let us consider the first new millin-
cry of 1922. How beautiful are the
bonnetsr How lovely are the hats !!
Not alone are they so to feminine eyes,
but the most critical and cynical of men
must see that the shapes are admirable
in an artistic sense. Take for examples
the two bonnets in the picture here.
They are of unexaggerated and very
becoming shapes. The one at the right
is covered with myrtle-green velvet,
shot with ruby. A fold of ruby velvet
rests upon the hair upon the left side
only, while in the center of the front
there are some pretty upright bows of
MORE ribbon, shot with green and red
to correspond with the colors of the
velvet. Among these is lovely feather
aigrette made in close imitation of a
purple heartsease. The strings are of
81 BIT MORE, and the back of the bonnet
is(eut up deeply to reveal the hair of
the wearer. Nothing is prettier in q
comedy woman than the back of her
head neatly adorned with her own hair,
and no bosnet ought ever to cover it.
But all women are not satisfied with
inconspicuous millinery. The writer
While there gentleman from this city
said to her: IL wish to take to my wife
at bone nice, fashionable bonnet. /
guess I'll look about me at the theater
and see what's worn" His mind must
have been seething maelstrom of i'm
pressions the next morning, for never
was there a season when such variety
of headgear was worn by those who are
bound to be picturesque. About the
best of the snowy hats that he saw were
the two pictures in the second illustra-
ton. One there displayed is quite a
novel hat, with a crown of cream plush,
ornamented with appliques of Jet, and
made with brim of black velvet. This
is trimmed at the side with full bows
OF MORE ribbon. The other is most
artistic shape, with soft crown, COW
cred with drawn brown velvet, and a
gathered brim, which can be easily bent
about to suit the face of the wearer.
with dropping plumes of shaded ostrich
feathers. I he crown is also trimmed
with fan-shaped embroidery of gold
upon silk ground.
In that audience sat Mrs. Berry
Wall, the new-made bride of the King
of the udes, the proud wearer of in
sane trousers and non compos ments
coats. The lady is graceful and pretty.
Her hat matched her dress, which was
a combination of sage green and prim-
rose yellow, not very effect We, but
probably expensive. There was a sort
of family resemblance in her hat and
face to lot of mats and faces in the
4eighborhood.
Some of the girls in that assemblage
wore the most remarkable head dresses
ever let loose on an astonished world.
One had black We vet Tam O'Shanter
of enormous proportions, with few
stiff feathers stuck in the brim. For
ali the world it looked like gigantic
ink-stand, with the quilts in ready for
work. Her sister was girl with lots
of hair, which she wore in two huge
rolls at the side, and it looked like one
of the little princes climbing the stair
in the Tower of London to the butt OF
Malmsey in which the poor dear was
put to eternal soak and sack. On top
of this hair was a ate reenaway poke
of beaver, calculated to make any man
shy his castor into the ring aud pro-
