TIE SUMMER HATS.
They May he Huge In sise. Hut they
Are Light in weight as Well
ms Color. ~


One very appreciablc feature of the
SIMMER hat is its lightness in weight
all well as color. While it may be huge
"a size, it can be n featherweight all
the same, says the New York Sun.
The Lamballe hat, very round and
fiat, is one of the popular shapes, and
is trimmed with flowers and shep-
herdess bow of black velvet ribbon
falling onto the hair behind Many of
the latest shapes are wide brimlned.
Sending down little in front and at
the back, where the bow of black rib
bon is finished with long ends One
pretty way of trimming these hats is
q sort of fringe of flowers around the
edge of the brim.
The flower hat, which extends well
over the forehead in sort of peaked
shape, is very fashionable, finished
with the bow and ends of black velvet
ribbon. A bow of black velvet of some
sort seems to be an Indispensable fac
tor in the latest millinery, as it makes
pretty contrast with flowers and all
the gauzy effects employed. There is

scuttle brim, dropping in the back, of
course, and there is three-coruered
directoire hat with no trimming ex-
cept a rosette directlyin front and one
ostrich plume falling at one side.
All these dropping tendencies in hats
emphasize the fact of the new coiffure,
which has arrived with all the neces-
,t e ,,1.,
pufls. 1t is this mode of dressing the
hair low at the nape of the neck WHICH
has brought about the chokerless bod
ice, and already the hats are affected
by it. Besides the velvet ends used al
the back, as mentioned before, there
are lace ends like those of the hats we
see in old pictures.
Very pretty toques are made by
stitching rows of straw in a net foun-
dation and joining them over the net
with a cross stitch of gold thread
This sort of hat requires very little
trimming except Il roselte or ii bunch
of flowers at one side.

broad, fiat hat in ecru lace straw,
alternating with tucks of white chif-
fon, is trimmed with Il band of black
velvet ribbon, a handsome buckle and
two medium long ostrich feathers at
one side. Gold-dotted chiffon is used
for scarf around the crown of some
of the dressy hats, while among the
shirt-waist hats more severe in style
you see dotted foulards and fancy
quills as the only trimming.
One unusual style of hat in black
crinolinc turns sharply off from the
face in front in a sort of Napoleon
shape, and directly in the center, fas-
tening the brim to the crown, is a
bunch of pink roses. On each side un-
der the brim there are two rosettes of
black velvet ribbon, with loops on one
side falling over the hair. There is an
other bunch of roses at the back.
