pearance In the spring, the one resembling
an inverted saucer-n0t large enough to be
dignified by the name of soup plate-is just
as fashionable as 1t was. This has a wreath
of roses on the top of the crown, and at the
back where the brim turns up from the
head sharply leaving often the top of the
head exposed. there are two or three
wreaths of these same roses nesting in
bed of tulle.
AS has been said, with many hats the cor
rect angle makes a great difference in eff
feet and with these shapes especially does
it make all the difference in the world.
Seen in the show case or held In the band
such hats are ludicrous caricatures and al
together impossibilities. Perched on the
head at just the right angie they are eff
fective and becoming-that is, If they are
becoming at all. There are some faces TO
which this style of hat is absolutely impos-
sible and makes the wearer thereof look
twenty years older than she should-one
reason, perhaps. why that style of hat Is
not chosen so rashly as many of the others
In midsummer it Is generally supposed
that the hats which are to be found are
great bargains. Undoubtedly there are
great bargains to be found by careful in
spection of the show cases at the MILL
ners' but there is also at this time or year

A violet-colored straw, trimmed with
masses of violets of different shadings, has
also a spray of large crimson roses under
the brim at the side and one rose of the
same on the top of the hat. The shading
and colOring of this hat are most attrac-
tive, and although in the description 1t
sounds conspicuous, in reality it is not So
but is very smart and becoming.
The hne straws are exceedingly fine and
light IN weight The fancy straws are
rather coarse and are supposed to be rather
heavy. The erin in all shades is really the
best material of all for midsummer, the
only trouble being that SO many milliners
Wire their shapes too much, thus making
them heavy and stiff. In pale yellow and
white are some charming shapes in the
erin. trimmed with pink roses or tea roses
which look extremely sunmerlike and eff
fective with the dainty muslin, chiffon or
silk gowns.
The shapes are without end in variety
and effect and the curious curved angles
that are obtained by the bending of the
brim give a marked individuality to each
hat. Indeed, there never was a year when
there much individuality in mil
linery. Given the same shape to start with
the same color and every detail precisely
alike, and yet no two hats appear the same
Whether the hat is becoming to the profile
is now, fortunately, just as much studied
as whether the full face or the back is be-
coming. This Is one reason for the indi-
viduality for the hats then appear suited
TO each and every wearer, rather than like
one of a whole lot turned out on the same
mold.
Feathers always fashionable, and
while for the moment the stiff wings and
the flowers are used in perhaps greater
quantity, some of the most beautiful hats
of the season are often trimmed with both
long and short ostrich plumes, arranged in
the fashion that has been popular FOR SO
long time-one long feather around the
crown, a pompon at the side, and under the
brim at the left or back cluster of tips
arranged TO fall down on the hair.
Such a hat as this Is either OF white or

~ ASHlONS In millinery grow eccen-
trio as the season advances, and
though In many Instances they have
been modified from the first styles
that were introduced, none the less
do they appear remarkable as regards size.
shape and coloring. If possible, the shapes
are smaller than ever. perched on the head
AT a most extraordinary angle. and often
showing half the crown of the head and, of
course. the entire head at the back
The posing Of the hat at the correct angle
Is one Of the tricks Of the trade and is
most difficult to accomplish satisfactorily
by the ordinary individual. The hat made
20 turn up directly at one side Is. by the un-
knowing, so placed on the head that it
turns up directly at the back or in front,
making a singular line from the point of
the brim TO the chin Of the wearer. AS hats
have been named eccentric this absurd mis-
take is often made and carried out with
quiet unconcern under the guise of being
the very height of fashion.
Flowers in great quantity are used al
though even now in midsummer there are
more stiff wings to be seen on smart hats
than has been the fashion for many a long
year. Flowers are put on the top OF the
hat. massed under the brim on the side and
at the back. and the COlOrtng is exquisite
in most instances, differing shades being
combined most artistically. and different
Colors also.
The massing OF the roses or any flowers
under the brim requires rather careful
treatment to make the hat becoming. but
none the less the fashion IS an attractive

II Is just far enough from the face to en-
nance the beauty OF the complexion and
give more color. II color be needed. and al
together is one OF the reasons why this
years millinery seems TO be so unusually
popular.

The Empire. Continental. Incroyable and
the always popular picture hat are all IA
vorite models. while the old-tlme sailor. the
conservative little turban and the never

What are known as pastel shades are ex-
tremely smart for hats at this time of year
The very pale grays and tans to be worn
with muslins or chiffon gowns OF the same
coloring are very dainty and gossamerlike
in appearance. These hats are generally
made of the erin and trimmed with ostrich
plumes and tips of the same shade Often
there Is no relief of color whatever and yet
occasionally touch of color is introduced
in some flowers that are put in at the back
under the brim or on top of the hat at tho
side with the feathers.
When it is possible to wear gown and
hat all of one shade of this very light tint
Il is rather smarter not to have the con-
trast in color, but it Is not always becom-
ing and then a better effect is obtained by
some white in the trimming of the dress
around the throat or in little touch OF
color in the hat.
A combination that is always fashionable
and always unusual is yellow with gray-a
pale yellow and pale shade OF gray This
brings out cOloring effectively and makes
1t at once unusual. The color can be OBJ
tanned in a hat of this description either by
the feathers used or by the flowers. A yell
low rose or two nestled in with pale gray
tips on a hat that is trimmed with tulle Is
charming In coloring and very becoming
1t would seem though this attention to
detail in coloring and material were car
ried almost to too great point, and yet so
much now depends upon 1t that II has to be
thought over very carefully. II Is claimed
that one reason why the fashions of the
moment seem so much more finished than
they ever have before is because everything
is so much in accord. and because the ques-
ton of what Is becoming is much more
thought of than was formerly the case.

gether too eccentric. that the general public

low prices. but. although eccentricity In
millinery is one OF the fads of the times.
there is the impossible eccentric which
should be avoided like the plague and not
bought simply because st has been marked
down to some absurdly low figure.
On the other hand. the demand for new
hats is constantly heard on al sides. as
there are II great many women who want
to put their millinery in order a third or
fourth aime for some projected visit or trip
In midsummer and who require the best OF
everything These women are the ones who
keep all fashions up to date and who de-
mand something new and attractive every
month In the year. The best milliners
realize this and can always furnish some
charming CONNECTION.
Just for the moment the light and airy
effects are the ones most in demand, and
these hats are not so exorbitant in price as
they would have been earlier I'm the sum
mer, for by midsummer begins the time
when autumn fashions are much more to
be thought Of. The white and llght-colored
erin hats. the light straws in fancy effects
and the lingerie hats are consequently the

lace used, but there is no end of smart hats
OF this kind made up in chiffon and maine,
which are eXquistely dainty. not especially
perishable, and looking though they were
expressly designed for this time OF year,
which undoubtedly they are. The self-same

trimming is used for grown people and
children. and aggressively simple hats are
quite the fad in this style-aggresslvely
simple when viewed from Il childs point OF

A touch of pale color is by far the best
with hats of this description. Dark coloTs
do not look well, the contrast is too
strong to be effective, and consequently
pale pinks. yellow, etc, are used instead OF
dark shades or deep puppies, such We're
seen on hats intended for earlier in the sea-
son and as will be seen later again In the
autumn.
