The bonnets and hats for spring and summer

for the decree Of fashion is for ornamentation-
either of a more complex OF simpler character.
There are TO be more bonnets seen than for some
years past. OF these there is revival OF the ever
becoming Marie Stuart shape, which. with its sharp
point over the centre OF the forehead. is adaptable
to several styles OF couture 1t is equally pretty
also as a shape for mourning bonnets. the plain

with without veil
The cornette or the Sister Of Charity shape with
happing sides secured at the base Of the crown. Is
also much seen. 1t comes in fancy braids. and Is
especially seen in French models.
Still another shape is one having round crown
of cloth of gold spangled with Jet or Jewels. and

One STYLE OF bonnet is the counterpart OF the
Dutch peasant cap For the bonnet proper
there is the crown i'll 'Ac SHoPN Va =" 'N''
cap. and this has oval plaques pressing
against the ears and is adapted to the present-day
style of hardressng. In Tuscan straw braid IN
this shape the plaques are made or rings OF the

In hats there will be seen once more the shep-

in great numbers. These may be or the most

Again is the sailor hat seen trimmed variety
of Ideas Is carried out In the trimming used. 1t

Another fashion is that of winding a broad scarf
in several folds around the crown. fastening It on
the left side with a buckle. The most elaborate
sailors have twists and loops OF soft material with
two Mercury wings set toward the BACK the ups
The simplest Of all the sailors has high crown
sloping somewhat TO narrower top. which is nat
tened and dented In. The only trimming on this
hat is a wide band put with two double loops
held with a buckle directly in front: The brim Is
rather wide and bends up just trife. The whole
appearance Of this hat IS military. and It RECALLS
at once to the beholder the Rough Rider shape
seen 80 much las summer and fall in the felt hats.
