straw foundation. A pretty model had 8 foundation of brown straw and a trimming of brown velvet ribbon. There was draped band and an ample bow Os the velvet encircling the low crown. Another was a pale blue linen over white. This hat was eyelet en- broidered in a small pattern, and had g trimming of wide, soft ribbon. with a large bow directly in front.
 The small turban has created the fashion of elaborate hair built to suit the hat. but now comes in another vagary of millinery. The bandeau is left plain or covered with maline, as nearly as possible matching in color the hair of the wearer. The coiffure is built up over this bandeau, the puffs ard curls being pinned to the gauge. The Millinery Trade Review com ments as follows. Whether this style will take on to any extent is a ques- tion. To pin ones hair to ones hat renders putting on and taking off the latter laborious process. True, the difficulty may be turned by the use of false curls. but no milliners have yet had the courage to exhibit a model with such an appendage, reserving to them selves the tasks of explaining the mat ter verbally to their customers" It used to be a common thing to sew a false fringe to a hat brin, when a fringe was demanded for becoming ness, It appears that fashions have been modified by intelligence of late years, since no milliner dares ven ture to openly advise such an idiotic course.
 The small hat continues a favorite The old-fashioned Leghorn is having a great vogue, and certainly no other straw has quite the grace and standing quality of this braid. It combines well with velvet and roses. and is sub Stantial enough to be an excellent foundation of ostrich plumes. With a black and white shepherds check street gown was worn a Leghorn hat, turned up in the back, the cachepeigne being covered with cluster of nodding cher ries. A scarf of yellow lace and black velvet ribbon trimmed the front of the hat
 A striking little Leghorn llaa had the cachepeigne in the back, covered with pale yellow roses and loops of bluish nlauve velvet ribbon. There was a band of the velvet around the crown of the hat, and this was made to catch the brim directly in front, bending in back a trifie A small bow marked the place. Three exquisite ostrich tips were ar ranged Prince of Wales fashion on one. One of the feathers was plain yell low, another old pink. or crushed rasp- berry, and the third was of the bluish mauve tint. t'
 A striking little Leghorn hat had the had the crown encircled with several rows of lovely yellow roses without foli- age. On one side, mingled with the flowers, were thrse sharply pointed white wings, artistically arranged. A bandeau and bow of tan-colored tulle completed the hat. 4
 Aigrettes are much used on summer hats. They point in all directions, as we'll as being placed upright. Very of ten a large aigrette will be placed un- derneath lifted brim, and will actually droop against the hair of the wearer. A very good model was sesn in a horse hair braid of pastel green. A garland of Dresden roses trimmed the hat, while a large, white aigrstte was arranged un- der the brim as described. E..-.
 Another pale green tulle folded on in- formally. The brim was rolled sharply in the back with a black feather curling over the forehead and was quite fiat on top. A little line of black velvet ribbon was tied in a bow in front close to the edgeiof the brim, while the hat at the top, near the turned-up back brinn, was a mass of pale violets.
 Violets trimmed a white chip, a sort of platter-s saaped affair, with the rolled brim linad with black tulle. There were three punches of violets placed a little to the left of the front. From each of them two pastel blue ribbons were stretched across the top of the hat, tied in a knot, and carried over the brim, where they met large bow of the same ribbon. .& ,....
 A new shoe is an oxford tie with a projecting sole and high Cuban heel. Instead of being jbuttoned or laced, the shoe is closed with three straps and buckles. This comes in tan or black Russian calf and in canvas. Tan and black are the only permissible shoes for ordinary wear, with white canvas and linen taken for granted, but for evening wear it is proper to have the shoes match the gown exactly Almost all shades of pink, blue, n1auvs and yellow are to be had, but the shoes are often made to order of especially dyed satin. To wear with a brocade coat in the Di- rectoire style shoes of the brocade with paste buckles have been made at a certain shop. They were exact re- productions, as far as style is con- eerned, of the shoes of the period. The absurdly narrow high heel was not copied. Neither was the extremely pointed toe. We respect the human foot in these days.-New York Evening Post.
