In Its Best Form It Gives u Picturesque
Touch TO Tie Toilet.


The favortsm shown for the So
called outing hat is conspicuous
sign of the manifold requirements of
n woman's summer outfit at the pres
ent day. A few years ago such an
article was almost wholly unnecessary
with many women. but now that golf
tennis. yachting and bicycle riding
are INDUCED in so freely not only one
but several Of these hats prove ex-
tremely useful and stylish.
Never before was the outing hat so
truly bcwltching as II Is now. With
this, as with the gowns of the season,
white is the preferred color both in
hat and trimming, although it is fire.

tint AS for shapes the sailor again
holds prominent place, many of the
more fanciful hats being hardly more

now hats made of different varieties
of grass in natural tints are much in
request. as are also the English split
straw and Panama braids. An eX-

heavy plume of white COZ feathers
fiecked with black. is confined on the
left side of the brim by n rhinestone
buckle, and sweeps around the brim

The only trimming is an irch ard n
half band of blacl. velvet ribbon tied
in n bow directly in the back. The
bow has long loops falling below the
brim Of the hat. while the ends hang
down slightly below the loops to the
wearer's shoulders. This trimming
may be modified by making the
loops short and the long ends alone to

The shirt waist hat, with its fiat,
