ing generally. The traveller stopped in
Paris in the early spring purchasing a
Louise hatsof exquisite beauty and style.
Three months later the lady who was
then in Germany, came to Paris. She
also visited the Louise shop, and selected
a pattern hat of style and beauty. She
was told by the milliner that there was
only one other hat like it and that hat
had been bought by an American lady
several months before America is a
wide country" thought the intending pur-
chaser, land Tn never see that other
hat" So she bought hers, and here is
the sequel. Wearing It to a recent card

part worn by the Atlanta woman, who.

French milliaer.
