Alsatian bow at the left front. and
fastening behind this was a high tuft
of loosely waved black ostrich feathers.
Another delightfully."- picturesque
freak, fashioned after this model, had
its small, steep, powder box crown
made of blush-apple velvet, which, with
its delicate streaks of yellow and Grim
son. closely initiates that fruit A
charming addition in the way of pair
of wide, black crepe de chine strings
has been added to this, and instead Of
the net, a full moon of jetted lace, cum
ningly wired, formed the brim. The
sole outside trimming, bunch OF black
feathers as large almost as small
bush, was fastened Immediately ll
front, with a square jet buckle.
MILLINERY BCCENTRICITIEs.
The first. flower bonnet went down
the streets of Paris, followed by the
boots of the multitude, and even stones.
Foreign fashions are stared at and
audibly commented on by the passers
by: and one of our own country wo-
men. Miss Viola Roseboro, the clever
magazine writer, tells somewhere, that
she was once so amazed in Paris by
remarks on her headgear-which hap
pened to be a dashing little Scotch
travelling cap that she put it under
her arm and walked home bareheaded
and respected.
And now, with the memory of all this
insolence, this hat!
THE LATEST FRENCH CoNFEC-
TON.
Picture a monster disc. straight and
fat as the ogre's plate in the fairy tale,
of deep, gold colored felt.
Put in front on this vast, untrimmed
exranse, a single low bow of black
velvet, whose wide, stiff ends touch the
edge Of the brim at each side. Under
this brim, as if growing out OF the
temples. fasten two large balls OF silver
and Rhine stones: next. from the two
crown sides underneath, hang two
black ostrich feathers that curl around
the couture and drop to the shoulders,
and 10. the latest French freak that
offends the American palate!
In this large hat, the temple orna-
ments were distinctly out Of place, but
for small hats and bonnets they form
an effective and becoming garniture.
Indeed, the very latest fad in millinery
is a broadening effect at the sides, and
TO emphasize this, not only balls and
1eweled horns of every description are
used, but also velvet chouX and seal
and sable heads
SMALL BONNETS.
A tiny saucer bonnet Of flame pink
crepe ruffied like a peony, has an en-
tire brim of baby seal heads, with two
larger ones accenting the sides. An
other. a minute triangle of scarlet felt
braid, suggesting the headdress of the
east. was bewilderingly beautiful. it
fitting close to the head like a skull
cap, and from the center Of the fat
crown rose two shadowy mercury
wings of black gauze starred with jet.
Looped through the brim around the
front and sides was long scarf of
thin white lace that fell in short head
dress ends behind the ears; and pro-
jeoting straight in front, and near to-
gether, like two large beetle horns, was
a pair of dull silver ornaments richly
set with red stones.
FOR THE THEATRE.
Another infinitessimal toque of tur-
quoise blue velvet wrapped over wires
had as its only trimming a cluster of
tiny cut Jet wings at each temple.
All of these bonnets the confidential
rnodiste informs us. can be worn at
pinch at the theatre, but since license
in bonnets points toward a sneaking in
of hats as well-and maybe big ones,
alasi-one can only hope the pinch may
never come. Besides, every thing else
considered, if all women only knew it,
there is no hat or bonnet on earth so
becoming as well groomed bare head
Nine Mode empties from her horn an
inconceivable variety Sn color and
shape. One narvels where she gets
t,em all, and if they were designed for
7princesses, they are such precious lux
uries; but any one OF them abounds In
valuable hints for the nimble fingers
of the home milliner.
NOVELTIES.
Brims, even OF felt hats, are not
necessarily of the same color as the
crown: thus a yellow grown may own
q black brim, or else the crown may
