A@A of the Easter hat, and the
WSNN milliners are showing many
@5E pretty modes for the occa-
SW sion. Flowers, gold and a
~ tendency toward ribbon are
the leading characteristics of trimmings
for hats. In flowers, crushed roses and
the smaller varieties of pompadour roses
will be much used. Wreaths promise
well.
The style idea regarding flowers will
be the combination of two colors and
two kinds of blossoms. This new idea
will be a serious rival to that of the
shaded effects in flowers. The new
French wreaths show this shaded ef-
feet. Red roses shade from bright
cherry to dark cardinal, pink roses
from white TO pale pink, and so through
the gamut of shades and colors.
The prospects for ribbons as mil
linery trimming are more encouraging
than they have been for some seasons.
So far, it is always fiat-ribbon trim
ming, which is generally used in con-
junction with flowers. Soft ribbons and
delicate soft colors are the chief ideas.
Shaded ribbons are used to some extent,
but it remains to be seen how the buyers
take them up.
The lace drapery veil, or piece lace
put on a hat so as to simulate this idea,
is promin- m and novel in the French
millinery. 1t is this graceful drapery
idea which will be much seen at Nice
and Monte Carlo during the next few
weeks, and it is at those watering places
that the typical new fashions for spring
are first worn.
One material laid on another by way
of trimming is a marked feature of the
fashion Of the day. Cloth bands or ap-
plique designs of cloth on velvet gowns,
or the precise reverse, velvet cut out III
points or patterns laid upon cloth, or
silk used for edging cloth, or bands OF

themselves, but individually up to date,

of strength and no mean skill; guiding
the heavily-loaded sleds down the
humpy road, now holding back their
horses. now encouraging them, after
a needed rest, to the first mighty effort
to move the load.
At the skidway we observed the
working of the logloader, and did not
envy the men that toiled about the
queer machine; neither the man in
side. who must keep nine levers at
work; nor the man who grabs the
great hook and fastens it to a huge
log, which then sways threateningly

itself towards the man on the log train.
