bettered for general use. It is the new
Amazon shape, and trimmed simply and
gracefully with velvet band, a buckle,
and one dropping plume. This style
does not need. as do so many of the ultra
hats, q special couture, looks well With
either high or low dressing of the hair.
Small hats, in spite of much talk to
the contrary, continue In the favor
shown them this summer. Also we have
the more picturesque quite large chap

for what woman is there that doesn't
like to be- told she looks like picture,
and must she not win the compliment by
possession of picture hat? The all
black hat vies with the all white, both
returning after considerable absence.
A little gilt is added to the white hat,
the black may be unrel1eved. Not alone
In gowns are we to see the lavish use OF
lace, but also in hats. And surely the
lace hat IS very pretty.
Brown, which was threatened with re-
tirement, IS still in good style. A red
plume is great favorite, green f liked,

much the same as last year. Fur hats
are not to be recommended, though
numbers of them are on display; they
are much too heating for comfort and for
the good of ones tresses. Goats of chin
chilla are very fashionable; one may say
only short models appearing: this year
furs are SO expensive garments have to
be curtailed. i. Il 49,. -
Cloth for afternoon wear as well az
morning duty is preferred to other ma
terials; for evening satin perhaps is
In the lead, although crepe de chine is al
ways in good style, and light cashemeres
are we'll liked. It is the fancy to unite
thin stuffs and heavy, but one cannot
say how long It will last. Long wraps
and short are equally good but the long,
tight fitting coat is little old. Princess
gowns are very much the thing, If pos
sibly my lady should have one OF two in
her wardrobe;' but if her figure is not
well proportional she must take great
care that trimmings are disposed to
conceal defects; she may be too long
WASTED and slender. then let her have
bolero to shorten the waist and give
curve where the line is desired. Short
wasted effects will be popular, gen.
orally; not alone in house gowns, but In
wraps and dresses for variaus occasions
Wide belts are employed to give the
Empire short waist, and some of the
girdles have little sash ends and bows
at top to further the effect Many waists
are made with girdle attached, and sep.
arate ones worn should match the
gown.

blue tailor-made cloth suits. and some
afternoon costumes Of thinner material.
It is 4 shade that is very becoming when
becoming 1t all. ss4 H..
The neckwear for mornings is either
the tailored stock like the waist or .
black tailored stock with snowy turn
over collar and cuffs. Turned down
white collars, both plain and embroid-
cred, will be in good style, and very
pretty fancy ribbons are offered to wear
with these, either as four-in-hands or
string ties. We trust the neat way Of
dressing the neck with washable collars
will long continue. For dressy wear we
shall have quite q lot of white fufhness
about the throat, the old-fashioned jahot
again in favor.
One Of the new shirt waists, a very
smart one. indeed, is green silk with
a glimpse of gray plaid peeping from I'M
der front straps and with the narrow
est of plaid pipings further trims the
front. The stock matches the waist,
green trimmed, with just touch of
plaid. It is especially attractive in these
mid-autumn days. r~s, : .2-.:. =

One goes to the milliners' openings,
and comes away wondering why men,
bers of this calling make most of their
hats SO ugly and impossible. When
new gowns are on display one can al
ways find a number of very beautiful
ones; but hats often seem utterly I'M
possible, the whole assortment an as
sortment Of monstrosities. This year,
as we wandered YEARLY about, it ap-
peared to US things were worse than usu-
al, that the headgear was only made to
show how much stuff could be put on a
single frame, never in the world intend
ed to wear. There were tip-tilted Chin
ney pots with cabbage roses on the back
by the dozen; heavy fur chapeaus that
looked like bears heads; there were
all sorts of eccentric shapes in the
'tready-to-wears." But, thank fortune,
we finally came upon some that really
could be worn and not call down general
notice on the wearer.
The one here illustrated is q model
that, it seems to us, could not well b

astonishing.
The great obstacle of the league har
been the inability to procure grounds
for the use Of thousands of boys who
are eager to avail themselves of an op-
portunity to develop themselves ply
sically. 1t has secured several private
| fields, the use of some of which has
been donated. others of which have
| been hired. The colonies Of the ma
tional guard regiments have been gen
erous in allowing the use of thei1
armories. The league has also utilized
some of the play grounds of the schools
after school hours.
The first of the athletic fields doaat-
ed by the school board and controlled
by the league, and which has beer spe-
cially< equipped for the work of the
league, has just been opened up. and
is located in New Brighton, S:aten
Island. Others will be located in other
sections of the city as rapidly as pos
/; sible. At first it was intended to con
fine the use of the athletic fields to the
members of the high schools, bu. this

Of the city, taking in the parochial and
other schools which are outside the
public school system.

the teaching of the boys Of the high
schools how to shoot, and Krag gins
! have lien installed in four of the
| high scaools. Mr.. S. r.. Guggenhe:ner
has given $1,000 towards this feature
Of the work. A bronze has reiiea

Harry Payne Whitney, is the trophy
for which the high school teams com.

each boy on the victorious team, which
is his to keep. This feature Of the
leagues work wins the special com.

To show the splendid success OF this
branch OF the work we have but to cite
the record Of the Dewitt Clinton high
school boys, whose shooting score is
the highest ever made at Creedmo.e OIL
