orange yellow velvet which is also used for
folds about the base of the crown. A jet pin
sparkles at the right side, and at the left are
punched three black tips and a shaded yellow
Paradise aigrette. Under the brm at the
back pair of diminUtivc tips hang upon the
hair.
For carriage and evening wear is shown a
fiat hat covered with American Beauty velvet

The back is turned up to support three
lunches of viOlcts, and a single black tip

A set of oval medallions in Russian lace
would improve a toilette Bodice Of black broad
cloth The collar, if it be in military or
choker style, the sleeves and the fronts may

Black dress goods are popular. Not only
arc the divers varieties of goods in colors
familiar to the shopper duplicated IN black
but besides there are numbcrlcss variations
upon the many pattern themes Thus, yolours
in all black, though q silk-and-wool-m mixed
material gives the impression of all silk sug-
gestive of cr6pon. In one such sample the
device is floral and in another geometrical.
The ground work is less lustrous than the
design and the latter is therefore, more con-
spicuously displayed.
In another black velours a chechered effect
is produced with large black silk blocks. y
very fine poplin is varied by silk stripes and
arabesques and is one of the dressiest Of black
goods.
Crowns of gold or silver cloth studded with
silver spangles and mock gems may be pur-
chased to be combined with Set-spangled
crowns in various jaunty shapes. Then there
are satin and kid bands of considerable depth
embroidered with spangles Tor banding
crowns.

not imperative. Gold is wrought into some of
the mousseline trimmings, with happy results.
Though flower-laden, a hat of fancy green
straw braid is simple and most seaSOnable.
The crown is high, but is almost hidden under
q tangle of bluets, the slender, blade-llke foil
age being copied from Nature as faithfully as
the flower. The brin, of medium size, Is bent
up at the left side and tall bunch of the lovely
blossoms is fixed upon it. Toward the back
and also at the left side duets are arranged
among loops of Nile-green ribbon, a Rhine
stone pin experimenting the trimming. The
color harmony is particularly charming
