Hats in Favor in This Country at Vari-
Gus Seasons.

For general everyday use. with
lounge and business suit, the Derby or
stiff hat has the preference. 1t is now
the favorite: and the Alpine, or soft
felt has only a second place until the
spring and warm weather. The black
Derby is the most fashionable. The
reason is obvious. You can wear a
black Derby with almost any shade of
suit, and its only restriction applies to
all hats of IT'S shape, and that is that
it can never be worn with frock coat.
This does not apply, of course to the
frock overcoat, single breasted known
as the Chesterfield The Derby this
autumn and winter is, indeed, a verv
pretty hat. The crown is belled most
gracefully, and not as high as that of
last year. The brim is wide, with
much curl, and there is slight ten
dency to come to a point in the front
and the back The band is of narrow
ribbed silk.
The brown Derby comes next in
popularity to the black. There are
several shades of tan and fawn. The
only drawback to brown Derby lies
in the fact that 1t cannot be easily
worn except with a brown or gray
suit, and with even the latter 1t is apt
to prove too striking contrast in
color
