had two hats a season not exceeding in
price $50, today they may expend no
greater sum and be as well equipped
and in the mode.
To balance accounts the millinery
fraternity have evolved the finished hat
which needs but a bow, a quill or a
buckle to complete it. The amateur can
supply these small requisites in a jiffy,
and the hat is for wear. During the
winter months they are made of velvet
and fur in as many shapes as fashion
schedules, and by the addition of a
bunch of roses, ribbon rosettes or some
similar small ornamentation a hand

pected, and generally the decorative ar

These difficulties are overcome by the
handmade hat, which really follows the
outline of some especial model, being
perked high on one side or curving to
frame the face or suiting the style of
couture by its yielding, graceful lines,
and one can test its possibility, whereas
the straight, severe blocked shapes of
the past conveyed no such idea. Hats
of this character range from $3.50 to SO.
They are of the very best materials and
differ in price according to size and
style of braid used. Fancy braids of
the two or three toned variety come
across the water and are increased in
price by import duty, while the plain
straws of our own make are inexpen-
sive. The handmade hat outwears all
other kinds, and, if careful to select an
evenly woven straw, our own is little
less beautiful than that the foreign

to the straw hat for rehabilitation and
a Lenten tenure of office, to be re-en-
forced as weather permits by the cotton
shirt waist.
Tuscan braids and satin straws are
extensively used for toques, while the
all over braid leads in fashioning the
toreador turban, which is as prOnounc-
ed in shape as in the turbulent days Of
the Spanish American war. Yellow,
blue and scarlet in every variation Of
each tint seem of paramount impor-

THE NEW INDUSTRY.

Nothing new has developed within the
week with reference to the new industry
which is almost within the grasp of
Manitowoc. Preliminary to a final de-
termination an effort is being made to
secure options on real estate with view
of determining the cost. The parties in
terested are rather discouraged at the
outlook as options cannot be secured in
some instances they say. In other cases
the price asked they claim is prohibitory.
The contemplated location of the fac
tory here was because of the near prox-
unity to the Boiler Works. They could
be practically connected if the sites were
contiguous and mutual benefit would
thus result. Other sites in the city are
now under consideration, but it is feared
that the prices asked will delay if it does
not defeat the enterprise. If satisfactory
arrangements can be made for an elig-
IDLE site the location of the factory here
is quite certain. 1t is expected that the
Wisconsin Central will interest itself in
