Ostrich Feathers Popular.
nm the Millinery Trade Review.

From the Millinery Trade REVIEW.
A sort of Prince of Wales plume is the
decoration chosen for the high-crowned
hats that have lately put in an appearance.
The three feathers are, fastened together in
front of the crown, the center one erect
the others bending right and left, undersde
foremost, and all the tips curling even to
the front.
One hat trimmed in this way, with three
long ostrich tips shaded from champagne
to white, is made of white mousseIine de
sole applique, with handsome scrolls of
ecru guipure lace. 1t has a moderately
high crown somewhat broader at the top,
and a broad brim pressed down against
the hair at the back and slightly waved in
front.
1 have also noticed in some other hats
trimmed with ostrich a tendency to adopt
arrangements which show off the feather
to much better effect than those that have
lately been resorted to. A feather lying fiat
loses much of it's beauty; it appears to
much better advantage when gracefully
curved On some of the hats with the
brim rolled at the side the feathers are
fastened in front and then sweep back fol-
lowing the curve of the brim. A sort of
Amazon hat in fine sewn Tuscan is trim
med thus, with two white amazons, be-
tween which. in front, is much-curved
yellow tip.
An important impetus is given to the os-
trich feather trade by revival of taste for
shorter feathers and tips. While the Anna
zon reigned alone ostrich had necessarily
to be confined to the trimming of broad
brimmed hats. but the former are suitable
to smaller hats. toQues and toQuets.

THE PLATEAU HAT.
Trimmed So as to Give No Additional
Height.
From the Millinery Trade Review.

From the Millinery Trade Review.
Only quite young face looks well under
a fiat plateau the new sailor with very
low crown and rather wide brim, but 1t is
only necessary to raise them on a cache
pegne, or to roll or fold back the brim on
one or both sides, to obtain hat more
generally becoming. These shapes are
trimmed as fiat as possible, whether the
decorations be flowers, fruits, birds, ostrich.
or soft-textured ribbons. Indeed, In no
case are floral decorations, leaves, etc, ar
ranged so as to give additional height to
the shape, whatever may be the form
chosen.
Among the plateau hats / have noted Is
one in delightful combination of pastel
shades. The fancy braids of which it Is
made are pale lavender. Wide ribbon,
showing stripes of two shades of gray and
pink line-striped with white, is drawn
through loop of the straw In front; the
ends, after passing through the sides, are
arranged in fiat bows underneath the brim.
Outside the trimming further consists OF a
small chaplet of heliotrope on the left and
fiat garland of tiny blush roses and green
buds running from the right side around
the back.
Another, made of fancy black braids, has
several large whitsh-green daisies on the
left side, balanced on the right by spray
of black velvet daisies with yellow hearts
ana a small knot OF Sky-Dlue flDDOH velvet.
The whole of this trimming lies quite fiat,
but the hat is raised in front on velvet
coronet, and, moreover. the front portion
of the brim is curiously trimmed UNDER
Meath with big, pendant jet of spangles
sewn very closely together.
The best specimens of low-crowned hats
include one made of cream-colored braids.
This has the edge of the brim slightly roll
ed and worked over with half-inch wide
black velvet first one way, then the other.
so that the velvet forms series of crosses.
A wreath of miniature white roses and a
fringe of beads rests on the sides and back
of the brim, finished with tufts of green
leaves on each side.
Another in burnt yellow straw is almost
entirely wreathed around with full-blown
double peoples, shaded from violet to pal
est lilac: the interval being filled up with a
large fiat rosette of black ribbon velvet.
Two bands of ribbon. starting from this
rosette, cross the crown, pass through the
straw, and are fastened underneath the
brim on the left by a second fat rosette.
Another fiat hat is in high favor just
now. Here the crown is SO low to be
almost nonresident, and it is covered with
cherries laid closely side by side like the
fruit in an open cherry tart, surrounded
by border of leaves or band of green
velvet The brim of one of these is in
burnt straw worked over in magnified
cross stitch with green velvet ribbon.

FOR THE PICNIC CORNER
A NOVEL FAD FOR PREVENTING
WORRY.
The Good Things That Picnic
Basket Should Con-
tain.

Written for The Evening Star.
In the family that is fond Of picnicking
picnic drawer will be found to save much
, time and vexation of spirit
Preferably, the drawer should be a deep
one in the pantry or kitchen closet, easy Of
access and sworn to picnic purposes alone.
In it there should be a package of Jap
anese napkins, ball of cord, several
sheets of paraffine paper, a box of corks
of various sizes, ditto bottles suited for
mayonnaise, vinegar, milk, lemonade,
olives, pickles, coffee and a pile Of good,
smooth wrapping paper and paper bags.
Here, also, should be picnic salt and
pepper shaker, a box Of wooden tooth
picks for skewering deviled eggs in shape,
two or three jelly glasses with tight covers
that screw on, pile of paper or wooden
plates of varying sizes, and picnic cups of
the light German ware, selecting those with
handles.
One or two tin baking powder cans, with
covers, will prove convenient, and there
must be corkscrew, a can opener and all
the nice, clean bOnbon shoe boxes that
can be obtained. couple of small table
cloths, retired from active service, will
often come in handy, well as an old
crash towel, If the picnic is to be an all
day, affair.
A half dozen steel knives and forks and
as many plated spoons complete the neceS-
sary outfit for this drawer, but an annex
should be provided in one corner of the
pantry or storeroom closet close by. Here
few emergency rations that won't spoil
should be kept on hand-a tin box of bis
cult jar or two of ported meats, one Of
anchovy, a can of SardneS, a pot of
cheese, with little ale brandy added
to give it ripeness and smoothness; glass
of jelly, bottle of pickles and one of
olives. Here, too, may be tablets of choc-
olate and bottle of grape or lime juice.
If this plan is followed. when the boys
elect to go swimming right after school
and take their supper or the young peo-
pie propose a row on the lake with "A pic
mic supper to follow, there will always be
something ready to fall back on, even
though both the kitchen fire and cook are
out and the corner grocery is closed.
AS for the picnic basket which must
hang near enough to hCbnob with the
drawer, that depends. Although there are
delightful little English hampers, with
places for the dishes, the knives and forks
their price initiates against general use
For the folk who frequently picnic en- fam
lille the stout German baskets with two
covers opening back from the middle will
be found admirable; while luncheon for
two or three is most easily packed in one
of the Japanese wicker satches built on
the same lines as the old fashioned carpet
bag, bullying at the bottom and narrowing
at the top. In small sizes these come as
low 30 cents, running from that up to
30. according to size.
With a waiting basket an emergency
shelf and picnic drawer always ready to
draw upon, putting up lunch ceases to
be the bugaboo commonly dreaded and
bewailed.

magnificent.
The new foulards bear little refation to
the old. and their soft, satiny finish rem

disfigured the previous hard sorts The
patterning. too. is more harmonious and,
instead Of the pretentious figuring once
seen, there are now tiny pois, pin dots
and skeleton dscS''-ringS the size of
25-cent piece.
They are often made with tucks and
seam fagoting for trimming, and since
such costumes are entirely unlined they
as light as a feather. Sometimes lace is
used instead of fagoting between the
seams. and if black and white foulard Is
of an elaborate nature it may be literally
festooned with delicate chantilly.
Black and White.
A radiant costume in black and white
satin foulard is trimmed with shaped
flounces of black chantilly. These come
only far as the front gore on the skirt,
and at the top the pattern of each flounce
is cut out and appliqued to silk one. so
that the deep lace borders seem part of 1t.
Many lace and embroidery trimmed
dresses display cape collars of the garni-
ture, falling in a round line as far as the
elbows These button in the back, with
sometimes only a narrow ribbon bias for
the neck finish. Again such collars will
have high transparent stocks, but the ones
which expose the throat are more admired
by the up-to-date girl
Silk-finiShed linen is a new and gracefully
falling texture favored by the French,
whose models in such materials show a
sublime simplicity. Linon de sole is the
shop name for this material. which COM
bines well with the antique laces of the
season.
For Bar Harbor.
This combination realized dress import

dvinely tall and as divinely fair. The
model was a full-gathered skirt and a
blouse bodice, with a single deep band Of
the lace some seven inches from the bot
tom of the skirt and a unique bodice yoke
on 1t. With the bodice fastening at the
back this outlined yoke of the linen run
ming over the sleeve tops and down the

Nothing could be more maidenly simple
than these charming and expensive French
frocks But their very occurrences is
coquetry, and she who gazes upon the feat
is inclined to deplore the heavy and too
lavish finger of the American maker.

never hard and is always changing.
For all the occasions of summer foulards
have taken a new lease Of life, and they
