The past week the ladies OF the plac

: been able to crafty their curiosity, newi,
reused each season, and their liking 10
pretty headgear as well, by attending tn,
openings at the three millinery stores
where ample preparations had been made

stylish creations on exhibition must sup.
plant the hat that might have been salts
factorily made over from last season had
they not yielded to the temptation to
'Iust look around little"
This season the modists are ready for
all corners, the variety OF styles and
shapes being unusually large, although
perhaps the turban effects, and the hats
which are "off the face" because OF the
pompadour roll, predominant.
Mrs. Clark's opening came first and she
began the season with an excellent array
OF tastefully trimmed hats. Miss Hutch.
inson IS in charge OF the trimming de-
partment. Special attention has been
given to bonnets here, with pleasing re-
suits. One exceptionally pretty one was
made OF black f1uted chenille trimmed
with grey velvet and spangled aigrettes.
II had Jet crown and was finished with
black ties.
The gilt trimmings which are so stylish
this season were used on several pretty
hats, and the new Panne velvets were
seen on others.
One OF the handsomest hats was an all
black one OF velvet, with a tamosbauter
crown rolled high on the left side. Ii was
adorned with three ostrich plumes droop-
Ing toward the front, long steel buckle
and Jet band. An Amazon plume was
effectively used under the brim.
An elaborate bonnet, which was partic.
ularly admired, was of Panne velvet and
had steel crown. Black and purple vio-
lets and foliage and black and white cross
aigrettes formed the trimmings.
The feather pompons, some edged with
fur, handsome plumes, buckles, stitched
hats and seasonable novelties were shown
in abundance.
At Miss Bells the display was larger
than elsewhere and was quite up to her |
high standard. Miss Kenerson Of Barre |
Is again her assistant. The hats are not /
high, but many have that effect /
as they are worn "off the face"
The misses hats seem to have been Civ 4
en- particular attention. Ribbons are /
used somewhat, fringed ribbon making a
pretty trimming on one or two OF the hats
shown. Fewer felt hats than usual will 1
be worn, pretty made hats OF soft velvet,
silks, etc, being more popular. Several
hats seen were entirely OF felt, which is
used considerably in trimming. The
supply OF felts was a generous one. i
Mink is a stylish decoration this sea-
son. One neat turban was composed of
two shades of brown mirror velvet, with
PINK velvet, mink head and rhinestone
buckle at the side for height.
An elegant black hat had a crown OF
lhirred and wired Panne velvet with a
'front.' trimming OF handsome pheasants
breasts joined with a gold buckle adorned
With rhinestones. This hat was designed

locker" because of two brims, edged with
cru lace. one over the other, 1t was OF
'ale blue Panne velvet trimmed with black
rystal velour, black silk roses, ostrich
fps and a handsome buckle.
Chenille and chiffon were among the
fewer decorations seen to advantage.
