The new hats are marching into
town, Some in velvets and some in
two-toned felts, and all looking more
chic and jaunty than ever before.
Jetted quills and Prince of Wales
plumes vie with one another in their
decoration, while graceful loops of
mirror velvet lend their delicate chang
ing tints to soften the effect Wings
are also in favor, not only on round
hats but bonnets as we'll.
One of the new hats for everyday
wear is medium size, cut in front OF
the brim with the points slightly rolled
back. The trimming is arranged be-
tween the points, so that it rests upon
the forehead This hat makes Short
wavy bang a necessity.
A novelty this season is hat which
may be bent into shape while you
wait. Think of the joy such creation
affords to the woman who was born
with vacillating mind! 1t may be
bent and unbent until it has assumed
as many as ten different shapes, all at
one sitting.
This hat bears striking resemblance
to the common or kitchen variety of
pancake. 1t is trimmed with satin
rosettes and ietted quilts and is FREE
quently made of contrasting shades of
felt.
The black and white hat is apparent
ly here to stay. A new shape is little
white felt hat with the brim turned up
all the way around. This brim is COW
cred with fine tracery in jet, At the
side is much-curled black feather
pompon in the center of which stands
jetted aigrette.
Another one of the latest black and
white creations is new shaped toque
of black velvet, encased, as it were, in
white velvet, which is embroidered in
Jet. The white velvet is arranged with
full effect toward the front, and as a
background to it there are two snowy
white wings. To make the contrast
more striking their outline is wrought
with Jets.
Many of the large hats have the brim
faced with shirred silk, which is most
becoming fancy.
As to the crowns of this seasons

Sometimes they are of satin, fat and

ions rules and regulations you must
buy little fancy muff with your best
bonnet novelty in the way of a
little bonnet, which is bought at an
unmentionable price, with a muff to
match, is of black velvet.
This sounds demure enough, but this
is only the beginning. The entire
front of the bonnet is glistening gold
butterfly with outspread wings. 1t is
made of passementerie, filled in with
woven gold threads. Crawling over
the body of the butterfly is little
black astralShan animal with its tail
waving high in the air. The tie strings
are of narrow black velvet.
The muff is bunched-up little af
fair of black velvet, with the same
kind of golden butterfly covering it
entirely in front, and black astrak-
han animal crawls over the butterfly
which is enough like the one on the
| bonnet to be its twin.
For more drcssy occasions there is a
little pale blue velvet bonnet framed
in band of sable. In front two sable
tails stand erect amid a delicate blue
feathery aigrette. The muff is very
small, made of sable and set in full
rufile of pale blue velvet. 1t is lined
with blue satin and suspended from
blue ribbons studded with turquoise.
For everyday wear bonnets are quite
out of date. Toques and round En-
ylish turbans have come to take their
place.
Other hats may possess more beauty,
but for convenience and jaunty style
nothing can equal the toque. Just
now those to match the gown are in
great demand.
X, An extremely stylish toque recently
seen was made of heliotrope cloth en-
broidered in gilt threads. Around the
edges of the toque, resting upon the
hair, tiny clusters of long-stemmed vio-
lets were caught.
The imported French hats, which cost
between twenty and thirty dollars,
have scorned the ordinary cardboard
bandbox. They are delivered in a
bandbox of delicately tinted celluloid,
with the bottom covered by tufted silk
