Decorative Pins.
The prophecy of white winter has
| proved yeracious. Hats of such fluffy
| filmy whiteness that they suggest the
| sunny days of midsummer are con-
stantly seen disportlng themselves at
| theatre, concert and even church. They
may be of felt or velvet or tulle, or
all three, with equal proprlety. and are
adorned with feathers, lace, fur or
flowers. White velvet flowers are par
| ticularly In demand and are mingled
with foliage Of so faint green as just
to escape being white. Branches of
white holly, with the merest touch of
green. and with white berries, are
| among the novelties In this direction.
A particularly beautiful hat seen re-
Gently was made of imitation Irish
crochet lace. The crown was square.
The brim was fiat in front, lifted at
the left side and allowed to droop
In the back. \ multitude of tiny folds
of chiffon faced the front. Around
the crown was n garland of large roses,
| In palest shell pink and cream white,
their surfaces glittering with simu-
lated dewdrops. Dusty miller leaves
were mingled with the roses. Two
roses and a cluster of the leaves were
arranged under the brim at the left
side.
Fur appears in combination this year
with velvet, tulle, chiffon, lace and
flowers, and is less often seen alone
than in previous winters.
A large toque, particularly dainty,
has wide crown of Canada mink fur
and a brim draped with folds Of
creamy white chiffon under draped
yelling of applique lace fiouncing. a
garland of pink crushed roses encircles
the crown and long cluster of pink
crushed roses lifts the brim at the left
of the back.
The most popular flower hats are
the toques covered with violets. a
new model is of pale English double
violets, and has a facing of pale violet
chiffon. natty black toque has its
broad, fiat crown covered with black
silk embroidered lace over draping
of black tulle. The brim curls up
gently all around and is smothered
| under a multitude of closely set, double
tulle rufiles, each of which is edged
with row of tiny gold spangles A
bow of black velvet clasps the brim
at the back.
Many are the designs in milliners'
jewelry. In addition to the ornaments
for finishing the ends of feathers, to
be had both for one and two feathers.
there are all sorts of devices for fin
ishing the great variety of velvet bows
which are so much used. The palm
shaped arrangements, of black bows
are mounted in curved bars made for
the purpose. Pins are in dull silver
and gilt. Those set with turquoise are
among the prettiest. Jet pins continue
in vogue. Brooches in filigree, gold
and white pearls are among the nov
elites. These are generally set in
fiat rosette of lace against the upturned
side of brim. Buckles are for the
| time less used than other ornaments.
Among the new shapes in hats is one
between the toque and capote. 1t has
coronet brim of Marie Stuart form,
and TIE crown is low and broad. The
material with which the crown is COW
cred is laid on in flutes, all of which
converge into point at the back. The
Marie Stuart brlm dips in front and
tapers off in points behind the ears
