with the summer chapeaux. Roses
seem to be the most favored for mil
linery garniture at present. They are
finely colored and beautifully shaded
and are made mostly of velvet, soft
satin and soft silk. Black roses are
also seen. Velvet roses come in all
ICES, from the very smallest to the
huge ones which form the entire crown
of a hat.
For evening wear there are the most
charming petal hats, that look like
nothing so much as overgroWn flowers.
These new rose hats are formed not of
masses of roses, but of large petals of
velvet. A lovely hat has a broad rim
and a low, round crown made of the
4,pink petals the sole trimming being a
dow, spreading bow of black velvet in
1.-the front. Another lovely example con
fsists of pale pink velvet rose leaves
which compose the entire crown, and
are lightly yelled with white tulle. The
rim of this hat is formed of swathings
of, tulle edged with line gold braid. A
beautiful white heron aigrette rises
from the u%pturned left side. A delight
Tful adornment for evening toques Of
lace, tulle or chiffon is found in huge
flowers of chiffon wonderfully tinted
and in many examples having jeweled
centers; velvet in exquisite tones is also
used for making these flowers. Ivy and
berried holly are appropriate trim
mingS for winter hats, and foliage in
richly glowing colors is also used. Nio-
lets apparently have a charmed exist
ence and again appear. C~hrysanthe-
NUNS and dahlas are SO popular. On
the black stitched velvet toque illus
trated today white dahlias uphold the
lace-lined crown. OF quite another
character n shape s the toque made
in mirror velvet in a beautiful shade of
deep violets. This toque has a soft
crown very gracefully draped, While the
brim is lined underneath with many
folds of velvet, cunningly arranged.
For sole trimming there is one giant
loose-leaved Japanese chrysanthemum
in a paler shade of mauye.
THE TOUCH OF GOLD.
Gold trimmings have assumed such
proportions as to become the dominat-
ing feature of the millinery of the mo-
ment. A ouch of tinsel-silver or gold
is introduced in almost every one of the
new models, whether it be intended
for dressy or ordinary wear, and when
Etastefully disposed is very effective. In
fsome hats shimmering cloth-of-gold is
tflsed for either the broad, low, Tam
fO'Shanter crown or the brim facing,
f4nd when black or deep cream lace APP
fpliques are disposed here and there the
general effect is charming. TIL craze for
gold has been reflected by millinery to
extent of all-gold hats. hi gold
lis really nothing more than gold braid,
lsthe strands being coarser, perhaps, and
Ejhe whole weave initiating a fine straw.
bibut the foundation principle is the same.
l4Such hats are trimmed simply with a
knot of black or white ostrich pIumes.

THE UBIQUITOUS BUCKLE.
| Buckles are a distinctive feature of
the modes in millinery. Many of the
most fashionable hats this season are
ornamented by the long. narrow En-
pire buckles. The buckles are usually
of gold, but cut steel that glitters like
FURNISHED silver, rhinestone and cut Jet
are also used. Occasionally
a large buckle, measuring sixteen inches.
