Chenille in Winter Headwear.
have yet to tell you that chenille finds
considerable favor, and that shapes made
entirely or partially Of chenille are on show
at the special warehouses In very great

are chequered with broad, simple design

Arrangement of CoIors.
Some rather curious manifestations or
coiors will be much favored this season. as
well as shaded effects. One, Iarge-sized

leather red velvet. Is trimmed with shades

larger rosettes, one placed the edge al

are made of deep brownish pink velvet, and

Ribbons in Millinery
1t is needless to insist more strongly on
the immense use which is made of ribbons
They suffice as a trimming for many quite
smart hats. One in pale, gray-blue felt OF
medium tone has large soft sort of re-

pink and blue ribbons. Ends of the same
ribbons, folded into band, start from
under this rosette. pass front and back OF
the crown and over the brim on the right,
where this is rolled up over a second large
rosette resting on the hair.
hat of plum-coiored taupe felt, with n
brim of medium width, and one of the high
beret crowns. that must be reckoned among
the very fashionable styles, is likewise
merely trimmed with ribbons, the velvet
such.
The ribbon used in this instance is of
the same color as the rest. with MORE
face and a satin back. 1t is folded round
the crown and then tied in a large double
bow. some of the loops having the MORE
side uppermost, and others the satin.
similar bow with the loops drawn out
longer. is placed under the brim on the
left side.
Flowers and Feathers in Millinery.
1t is more usual. however. for the ribbons
to be accompanied by feathers. flowers, &c.
A rough tan-colored felt, something of the
Brittany shape. namely. with a brim of
medium width and domed crown, has the
brim caught up by straps of cfgar-broWl
velvet. Two large ball rosettes of old sold
and tan ribbon. shipped in vandykes, suffice
for the outside trimming, but on the up
turned portion of the brim at the back, are
some pink and red single dahliaS and
brownish-green leaves.
Much the same sort of hat in felt of a
dark purple-blue tint is trimmed with wide
ribbons of q wfstaria mauve shade and
paradise plume to match.
Two-Toned Rough Felts Are Popular.
I have seen some rough felt hats tue
plumes of which are black. while the wide
punched-in or creased crown is of some
other color; for instance, grass-graen, deep
crimson or creamy white. These are ger
orally trimmed with black ribbon gathered
around the crown. bows of the same, and
cocks tall plumage or couteaux to match
the crown.
Another sort of crown. of which do not
remember to have given you an example,
is very wide and perfectly fiat at the top,
from which the sides slant into 2 narrow
base One of the models with crown OF
this kind. set onto very wide brim. is
covered fiat with cigar-brown velvet. A
piece of very wide taffeta ribbon dull! yell
low shot with brownish pink-tw.s.ed into
a thick rope. surrounds the base of the
crown and is fastened at the side by an
hour-gfass bow of the same. On the OPP
posite side is fastened golden paradise
