Take the pieces of felt that are left
over, and make some pretty loops and
ends to trim the front Buy Il few fancy
quills-thcrc are some pretty ones to be
had that add wonderful piquancy to Il
plain hut-anG combine with your felt
trimming. If you want to introduce
little astrakhan, all right. 1t may add
to the good effect; but if you use only
the quilts and the felt, and combine
them tastcfully, you will need nothing
more. Such Il hat costs almost nothing,
and will stand almost any weather or
treatment.
Evening hats are particularly delicate
and beautiful this winter The big
ones of light colored fclts and beavers
are all one mass of pale colorings-in
'vclvcts, in prince OF Wales tips, in lace
and fine braids The small hats have
no crowns. They have only three or
four fine wires for Il brim, covered with
pale shade of velvet. II few loops of
velvet in front, IL couple of aigrettcs or
a bunch of fine flowers, and strings.
The crown is omitted altogether, so
hindcred to any height desired

evening. Two small twists of pink vel
vet rested on the lndy's head. At the
front were II few gathers Of some soft,
creamy lace, and resting between lay
tiny fur head of beautiful f;wn brown.
Then little tiara of brillants crossed
the folds of lace.
Another had ruche OF black lace all
around in place of the velvet band, and
bunch of the pale blue tips in front,
with one black aigrcttc and two big
gold pins. The lady's pale blue bodice
was almost hidden by lovely Marie
Antoinettc fichu in mousscline dc sole,
edged with lace, that was caught on
the shoulders with standing bows.
Have you seen the new miniature
pelerinc? They call it pelcrinc in Paris,
but it's morcNilic big collar with
boa hanging from it. 1t is made of q
little bit of a shoulder cape, cape
that just reaches the shoulders, bat
doesn't cover them. This cape, usually
made of black velvet, is trimmed with

Why Passing Book Shop Made the Ris-
Ing Author Turn Pale.
The Rising Author was strollinr
along the avenue with friend. When
they came to Il certain much-frcuucnt-
ed book store the friend said: This is
the day the Weekly Thundcrer gets out
Let me go and buy my copy. Besides
we may look around little"
But Tie other shnddcred and shook
his head. No" he replied, II won't
go in with yon. I'll wait here"
1t was SO strange thing and fingered
so iii the friends mind that he men
toned it at'the club that evening. And
they all shook their heads and said it
was queer, very queer. Moreover, each
and every one of them made opportuni-
ties to lure the Rising Author towards
book stores and hear and see, separate
ly and individually, his shifty excuses
At least friend more cruel than the
rest said to him: "Old man, what's the
matter? Why do YOU shun the shops
where your kind of wares are sold?
What's up?"
The Rising Author groancd. 20,
you're all SO blind. Why, man alive,
my new books just out. It's on the
counters now. Bir! Why, those places
are positively CHASTITY. To go in and
ask, with n sicllly, feeble smile. How
is the-thc book sclling?' Then the
polite, dcprccatory attempt at hiding
the miserable truth. The customer who
comes in and picks up the new creation
Chances ut title page and lays it down
again to pass on to other things
stood those things for awhile. Bat q
man must stop somewhere could
stand it no longer. No. no, anything
but that Don't ask me"
The air of the club now bears for the
Rising Author sort of com,niscration.

I'LL over our gowns, on our boas and
mutfs, and never feel at all remorscful
at the amount of additional pain our
latest fad has brought into the world.
Where's the society that started the
crusade against the wholesale slaughter
of the birds? 1t ought to add a new
branch to its work embracing such re-
form. The use of birds has become less
popular since so many fashionable
women pledged themselves to wear no
more; SO that the society has been able
TO rest somewhat from it's labors But
here is an opportunity for it to strike
out in Il new direction.
Would the world of women stand by
them? Or will those poor little fur
heads be hunted down until they arc
utterly cut off, until they vanish for all
time from the face of this world of
ours? EVA A. SCHUBERT
