Audubon himself would be nightly puzzled to
classify most of the pieces sold today either as
to color, size breed or habitation. So the tender
hearted woman may order chapeaux trimmed with
feathers and feathered effects galore without in
the least imagining that any creature has been
robbed that she may make herself smart to the
eye.
1t is the prosaic hen and chicken of the barn
yard-and afterwards the dining table-that has
shed feathers enough to make up those extreme
ly smart and becoming pieces that the milliner
uses SO effectively.

Some time ago this torpedo boat turban was
introduced by that great designer of hats Caro-
line Reboux, under the name of the "Glengarry"
turban. This season it is very tastefully done
in soft cloth, velvet and handsome silk and wool
braids. It is cleverly wired and holds its own
though it requires a master milliner to produce
it's clever characteristics.
Two models of this description are shown on
this page, fashioned of soft cloth and oddly
treated with ribbon garniture and feathers.
These cloth "hoods," as many are called, are
SO pliable that they may be manipulated in most
any fashion to suit the facial requirements of
the wearer. This style is shown among the most
Exclusive models.
g Another style of turban is shown turned up
we'll on The left side, where plume or large
wing ribbon bow or wheel rosette is the usual
finish. Many turbans are tilted and some en-
tirely supported on barettes,; which must be well
fitted to the head.

For example, there is wee hat about the size
of small inverted bowl, fashioned of blue cloth
that seems too ridiculousy small for any prac-

snonstrous headpiece suggestive Of overturn-

In lieu of the small hat it is interesting to OBJ

summer.

a favorite model. Softest silks, chiffons, laces

buckles and jet ornaments.
