FLOWER 0RNkMENTATIoN.
some ef the VERY Newest and Pret-
ticst Effects VIII Appear in
summer Millinery.


One of the latest novelties IN fow-
ers Is a pansy with its petals curicd up
st the edges, rs when the blossom be-
gins 10 wlther away. 1t Is made IN
different combinations Of eelors. a..
for instance. various shades Of brown
ish red and pale yellow. A round
wreath Of such pansies broadening
out in front forms the border Of
large toque shelving over the fore
head and sloping down into .he neck
behind The crown Is completely com
cealcd by "a large. fiat how with six
long loops the eStremitlcs of which
rest on the wreath: each loop Is made
Of breadth OF duh green tulle. fold
ed four times, in the center OF which
Is laid two-ineh-syidc braid conn
posed of narrow bands of etinkied
bronze straw woven loosely together
By tarnished gold cord. In the mid
die of the bow is semieircnlar orna-
ment Of pierced duh gold,
In contrast to this for freshness Of
color Is a medium-sized. round toque.
the border of which consists Of folds
of white tulle striped lcagthwise with
bright yellow Tuscan braid The low,
wide crown is covered with yellow
cowslip bells. standing erect and elua-
tered very closely together. Cowsiins
also make pretty border for toques
lraped with cream lace Cmny, Lux
euil or brussels application, says the
Millinery Trade Review.
The floral crown arrangement In
also carried out in pale nnere hya-
rinth bells. But this model Is lnrge

two pale blue and two pink. forming
horizontal folds almost entirely COW
cred with n length Of cream yelling
brussels spriggcd nei-also folded
along the front aud arranged at the
back so as to form three fiat she'll
shaped ends fastened by an ornament
In simili ia form, ike n high comb.
Toques of this shape approach very
nearly TO the amazon-ahaped hat
which some milliners are advocating
again. A hat Of this form Is also in
teresting from the novel way IN which
IL ia trimmed. II Is In pale lavender
chip OF naere tone, and has low
domed crown; the brim bending down
back and front is entirely concealed
by two large palms sweeping round
from the front-~where they are fas-
tened by dull silver ornament Of
loop form, clasping the edge of the
brim--to the back. These palms are
made Of poppy petals of a pale lilac
tone glaee with two shades OF gray.
The palm form of decoration is par.
tictilarly applicable To the present
style of trimming low. but the more
usual way is TO use the palm for the
ornamentation of one side of tho
shape only, and this the left. II may
be placed on or against the hrim ac.
eordingly. as this is or not turned up.
Palms made OF petals are novelty
only shown by one house at present:
but palms made of leaves were noted
here as being worn last autumn.
Feather palms have quite superseded
breasts. They are made of a quanti-
~ OF small couteaux, not lying fiat one
over the other, but the point Of each
raised above those underneath. They
nre particularly asked for IN neutral
tints, combinations of different shades
of dull brown, and OF light brown and
mouse gray. They are also made OF
three or four medium-sized conteaux.

A pretty toqne, one of medium
size. Ia pale blue chip, with the brim
rolled on both sides. has q palm of
black couteaux, bordered with line
Of gold, placed against the left side
of the briIn, above which is o ball ro-
sette made OF loops Of blue meryeil-
lellx ribbon. A palm composed OF
small mouse gray and beige conteaux
deeorafes the left side Of a large
toque, made out of plateau of brown
chip. The straw is arranged In a
double fold around the border, and
between this and the low crown, in

crown. Underneath, on the left side,

roses, and on the right side Of the
brim, rather far back, is another clus-
ter of the same flowers.
