gloves, which come in every possible
shade, are not affected by the best

From present indications 1t would
seem that fewer trimmed suits Will be
seen. Trimming there will be, OF
course. but not the elaborate, almost
fussy forms that have had so long a
reign. For trimming, other than tall

severe tailor suits.

Not the least important thing about
the autumn hat Is it's veil. Never mas
there been a season when this fiippant
little object claimed greater promi-
nence. Curtain wells dropping from
he brims Of hats; wells flung back
over the tops of hats, softening the
trimmings and falling In scarf drap-
cries: voluminous wells completely
covering hats-all these are everyday
objects. Many Of the new wells are
extravagantly costly. Some are OF ex-
ouisite lace, a novelty being the lace
veil of two colors, the contrasting tone
serving either as border or as part
of the design.
ALL shades Of purple, but preferably
a pinkish mauve. are extremely fash-
ionable this season. and young and old
alike wear the same color. 1t Is USED
in all materials and for both elabor-
ate and simple gowns. A charmingiy
artistic gown in silk null or Chiffon
with bands of satin or velvet OF two or
three shades deeper, will be a favor-
lite model for a simple evening gown
next winter, while by the draping OF

In the other case the ends of the fichu

There Is quite fad for the en-
bellishment Of long evening gloves, as
well as those elbow ones that are worn
with short sleeves. Ribbon embroid-
cries are much used In this connec-
ton, and bracelet designs appear al

The autumn hat Is of medium size
tending to become large. 1t Is possible
that before winter Is over the enor-
nous picture hat Of a few seasons past
may again dominate the fashions
The tendency toward high crowns Is
marked both in elaborate headgear and
in the smart, simple hats always
brought out at the end Of August for
wear with tailor made dresses. fol
travelling use. etc. Many Of the new
hats are meant to be worn over the
forehead, though with a more moder-
ate inclination than was usual last
spring. The bandeau, or cache-pelgne
lifting the hat at the back Is no longer
bigger and more extravagantly trimmed
than the hat itself, but still demands
and receives attention. In many hats
1t is movable, enabling a woman te
choose the poise that to her Is mos'
becoming. Eccentric bends, twists and
tilts Of the side brim are an occasiona
vice of the new hat, as of Its pre-
decessors, though In this respect there
has been an obvious attempt at re-
formation.
Blue, which has been the summers
favorite color, will continue TO reign
in autumn. Throughout its entire
range of shades 1t Is represented In
the new hats, SAKE blue being espe-
cially conspicuous. The craze for

So far the number Of black hats Is al
most overwhelmingly large, but later
fancies may modify this tendency
White hats and hats in black and
white are also numerous. Many mil

of one color, while others mix tints

- Small scrolls of half inch wide
silk gathered over a small cord at
each edge Is a favorite trimming, es-
pecially on coats, and for these there
is an attachment which can be had
for most machines which hens the
edges and inserts the cord at the same
time. Another favorite way Of using
both ribbons and material is to either
gather 1t or plait ii into wide puffings

inserted, or 1t Is finished with the cord
of the heavier kind which is best made
separately. One Of the newest fancies
In ribbon trimmings Is to lay three inch
wide grosgrain in narrow side plaits
and to stitch it In place on the ma
chine. At the other edge the plaits are
reversed. each plait being folded back
to just its own depth, and this edge
being also stitched. 1t makes an eff
fective trimming which can be easily
turned so as to apply in Roman key
squares, and II is not nearly so diff
cult to make as ii sounds, as the plaits
can easily be basted into the reverse
position by handling them only along
the edge. This trimming Is especial
