to tell me which was their best hat for
a pretty girl, brown hair, dancing eyes,
20 inches around the waist; but Ravens

hats Though it is quite clear that he
thinks the bigger they are the dearerD
said that would not be safe. His adj
vice was that 7 should do a round of
milliners' windows on wet days so that
my umbrella might hide me. Wood
house, however, who has sisters and
hearkens to them, said this would be
foolish, as they only exhibited vari-
ETY. Of hats IN the Second-rate shops
He urged me to walk boldly into a shop
and insist or their giving me hat
Another friend, Hooper, said, THE hat
itself is of little consequence; the great
thing is that it should be dear. She
will forgive you for buying an unbe-
coming hat, but never for buying a
cheap one" Then Trotter, who thinks
himself clever, said, How can you buy
her hat when you don't know her
size?' This philosopher is 80 years old,
and has not discovered yet that ladies'
hats are worked with pins.
Several days passed, and I had all
but bought the hat many times. 1t was
strange and interesting to me to reflect
at, say, 5 o'clock that if 1 had entered
the shop at 4:30, the whole thing would
be over now. Once 1 did go into mil
liners shop in Regent street, but left
it without having bought the hat. This
was because my courage failed me-;
and instead Of asking for hat I re-
quested the boy who opened the door
to direct me to Piccadilly circus. If he

escape, and presently came to.
The place to buy ladies' hats, war
ranted dear, is Bond street; but in no
thoroughfare in London are there so
many inquisitive people. Bond street
can never expect to do a great trade
so long as the jewelers. and fish-sellers,
and even the sandWich-board men,
stare impertinently at Wayfarers. 1 was
simply driven from a milliner's door by
a fish-seller, who kept looking after me
as if he thought [ was afraid to face
him. Then there is a, dressmaker's win

all day looking for me. / soon diScov-

so incensed me that [ followed him to
his shop, and complained to his master.
There was a curious look in the latter's
eye, and L could not help feeling that
he knew wanted to buy a. lady's hat.
With another person dressed like a
gentleman, had quite a scene. I was
just going into a shop to buy the hat

confused me, and turned me from my
purpose; but half an hour afterwards 1

I-HELEN'S HAT.

Helen and ] had a bet of a, hat the
other day, and she won. AT that time
] thought. from looking at them, that
the price of ladies' hats could not run
to more than five shillings; but this is
a complete mistake. The cost of ladies'
hats varies according to what is not
on them; that is to say, half-a-sover-
eign extra is charged for taking ont the
feather, and guinea extra for taking
out what a man would call hat, and
leaving only the bow of ribbon. AS
almost nothing is the fashion just now,
hats are unusually dear this season.
To pay for a ladies' hat, however is,
after all, a small matter. The difficult
t. is to go into a shop in cold blood
and buy one. That is what L had to
do, according to the conditions Of the
