HATS RARE
AND LOVEY Y.

HTTAHE hats Of the season. says Marie
Jonreau. are the loveliest things
imaginable and of enchanting va
rfety. The newest wonders in mill
linery are the delicious pure white velvet
hats which have suddenly burst into bloom
with the chrysanthemums, and are so deli
cate and lovely that they can be worn but
few times only, as their purity soon gets
dimmed.
OF two pretty hats one Is OF the popular
turban shape, but Of turhan that Is
meant to be set back from the face rather
than tipped forward over the forehead
1t Is OF cloth and velvet; the cloth Is a
pale lavender and forms the soft crown,
velvet embroidered in lace-like pattern
with gold thread. It Is bit higher at one
side than the other and Is finished on the
high side by wired bow OF black velvet
ribbon. drawn through a jeweled gold
buckle and having high aigrette of black
towering above X. The other hat Is one
Of those lovely hairy cloth affairs made
as only a skilled milliner can make them.
1t Is of gray cloth, embroidered over in a
struggling design of black and gold and
bent into the most graceful shapes At one
side droop two large black ostrich plumes.
and there Is no other trimming. The Jet
ted turbans. which were such feature
last year, are still the rage this. and look
smart on women with plenty of color. but
the pale woman had best beware OF the
Jet turhan. These turbans are almost In
variably trimmed with black tips.
