plays a conspicuous part should be mem
toned certain small draped turbans
achieved by Carrier n fashioned almost
entirely from the wide soft Pompadour
ribbons. The little hat OF this character
pictured on this page was OF very attractive
lines and delicious coloring and was trimmed
in a big, full cocare Of che ~PompadOur
ribbon and a cluster Of pastel blue ostrich
plumes. The border OF the hat was a
narrow land Of pastel blue velvet.
More extreme. but very quaint and
charming, was the hat of brocaded velvet

While ribbon forms many OF the cache
peignes and flowers or feathers often iIl
in the space between brim and hair at the
backs OF the hats, the Use OF tulle to bring
the lines of hair and hat into harmony has
not been set aside, and the brown tulle so
inevitable pom the summer hats is still
in evidence.
Even when there ia no hint of brown
elsewhere In the hat the brown tulle may
appear under the back brim, the idea being
to fill in the awkward lines without any
conspicuous addition to the trimming.
The scheme succeeds very well when the
wparer's hair is Of shade that tones in with
the tulle. but the brown is not always ad-
visable or becoming.
Brown. especially in the very light bright
golden shades, has considerable impor-
lance in the millinery scheme and brown
fur hats are legion. These last are often
trimmed in clusters Of velvet roses in vivid

feathers in a yellow or orange HARMONIC
ing with the roses.
Roses in the dull blush red pinks and
deeper tones-these shades bear many diff
ferent names, but nay be best described,
perhaps. by calling them mulberry pinks
and reds-are also very effective upon the
brown fur; and curling ostrich plumes in
vivid green, shaded brown or shaded null
berry are popular trimming for this same
fur.

chic.
The feather trimmings among the novel;
ties are bewilderingly numerous and beauti-
full, but description OF them il difficult
and many Of them must be seen to be ap-
preciated. One Of the new things which
has taken well in Paris, though go far we
have seem only two hats trimmed with such
feathers here, Ia an ostrich feather fecked
with minute particles OF swansdown or
marabou. giving q fluffy effect 20 the
feather and a ~powdering as OF snow.
Many OF the ostrich plumes are, by the
way, Of most exaggerated length. passing
around the hat and falling low down over
the shoulder. In fact. il seems quite pos
sible that this idea will be carried to the
point Of caricature by some Of those who
can AFFORD the expensive plumes; but the
best OF the long feather models are very
picturesque and graceful.
