Shaping Silk Hat Brims.

The nail of his right fore6nger was
long, yellow, horny and the fingertip had
so thickened and hardened that it seemed
t. ne covered with pale leather.
lie was silk hat maker, and it was
from curling hat brlms that his finger
had changed so strangely. Describing
the processes of silk hats manufac-
ture, he said:
The belief that cardboard forms a
silk hats foundation is an error. The
hat is first built up of various thick
nesses of linen-layers of linen soaked
in shellac that, by means of wooden
mOlds and hot irons weighing twenty
pounds apiece Were welded one on the
other till n perfect shape, brim and all
complete, is obtained
THE silk is next put on. This silk
costs from $40 to SO a yard 1t looks
like plush i'll the piece The hatmaSer
cuts it on the bias and molds it round
the stiff linen foundation. The strips
must be very accurately cut. and great
care is needed in their ironing and
ccmenting so as to give a perfect di-
agonal joint. Look at your silk hats
seam the next time You wear it. The
joints perfection will perhaps amaze
you.
The brim, up to this point, is flat.
Now its curling commences. That is
where my queer foreGnger comes in. The
shaping of a hat brim is purely Il matter
| of hand and eye and taste. The brim.
while being shaped, is highly heated so
| as to give it pliablity.
And, of course, working on this hot
material, patting and prodding it, the
! torehnger thickens and the nail gets
! horny.
/ Nevertheless hat curling is pleasant,
/ artistic work, Hat curriers' have reputa-
| tions, the same as artists. Their work
/ Is distinctive. An expert can tell it at n
! alNmcn. "-PhAdelnhia RuIletin.
