SO
Very gay and conspicuous, says "Har-
per's Bazaar, are the first hats exhibited
this autumn. Those Intended for winter
also partake of the brilliant effect. There
are many strange combinations of color
ing, and on some of the new hats there
are strange mixtures in the different
shades of one color. Then there are the
all blue, all red, all brown. etc, without
even a note of difference to give any re-
lief. There are also a number of very
smart all-black hats, made in the new
rough beavers, the fancy chenille braids,
and the velvets. These are to be seen IN
a number of different shapes. The cock
ade hat has come in again, as well as the
cavalier, while the stiff English turban
and also the picture-hat must needs be
included among the new styles.
Bonnets with strings will be worn by
older women, and the bonnets themselves
will be larger in size han they were last
year. Younger women are to have smart
little toques in jet, felt or velvet. The
xoT+ xrnfraf 4,,rtopc and fo111pe will he
worn more during the autumn than any
other style of hat, and it is considered
very smart with an all-black gown to
have a hat of some bright color Black
hats with a touch of white or yellow are
worn with very smart reception gowns
The styles are decidedly marked as to
shape, and are not to be rashly bought.
To choose a becoming hat this year will
involve some expenditure of time.
The new dances, like almost everything
else, are to have a military tone this
winter, says Harper's Bazaar The
American Society of Professors of Dane
ing has so decreed. Carpet knights" will
be more than an empty phrase. Terpsich-
ore will not exactly carry a musket, nor
trip in time to HAY foot, straw foot, ;"
but She will indulge in mimic battles,
and most Notwithstanding names. Adj
miral Dewey, who has been sponsor for
everything from gowns to tops, gives his
name a new figure for the cotillon. In
the Dewey figure, after marching and
countermarching, the lines of opposing
dancers carry on a brisk battle with con-
fetti, whose colored paper ribbons fairly
enmesh the compan in a great rainbow
like web. There are still other military
fgures-the Charge of the Light Brigade.
the Stars and Stripes. n the Imperial
Guards. The Cadet Lancers, instead of
being danced, with resulting figures in the
shape of triangle and stars. 1t is claimed
that the five-step schottische will share
the extraordinary popularity of the two
step. The new schottische is a rather
difficult dance, but that will probably be
one thing in its favor.
The muffler belt. which is a large silk
handkerchief made into a girdle, is one of
the latest adaptions. of fashionable wo-
men. There are two designs, one being
narrow and the other broad, like a girdle.
The belt is made by folding a brilliant silk
square into a narrow band, measuring
about IS inches from corner to corner
around the waist, and knotted at the
side into flowing ends and fastened by a
bright buckle or clasp of gold or silver.
This makes a unique and pretty finish
for a waist. The handkerchief girdle is
shirred to a high point in front. and the
shirrings at each side have bones to hold
them in place. At, the back it is gathered
into a small shir and the corner ends
are allowed to fall in two points, which
show the border and make a finish. These
girdles are more graceful than ribbons
around the waist.
IF you wish to have a good cup of tea"
the man who knows teas says, buy a
little plain brown teapot, which looks
not unlike as to outward appearance the
common flower pot in which your
plants come from the florists. But this
red paste of which your teapot is made
is of much finer material; it has a Jap
anese stamp on the bottom. and it comes
from a small town in China not far from
one of the large cities. Then when you
have your tea pot take good care of it.
Don't wash it. Why should you? Rinse
it out Immediately after using. Be as
careful of it as a man would be OF a
meerschaum pipe, and it will become sea-
soned and increase in value at the rate
of 81 a year" If the connoisseur wishes
TO get some good Russia tea it can be
