Fur Hat Modes.

The fur hats this season are little fur toques, made preferably of chin chilla, though they are very hand some made of ermine They can be made of any dressy fur, and the only trimming they require is bunch of feathers at the side. These feathers need not be long nor expensive. Three or four little tips with an aigrette in the middle are quite enough. As for the bandeau-for what hat can he worn without bandeau these days it is trimmed with a few choux of chiffon, maline or tulle. This finishes a handsome fur hat.
 There are hats that can never by any stretch of style be worn all the year. and woman must expect to replenish them at the close of the season. One Is the summer sailor hat, another is the Alpine mountain hat and a third Is the fur toque. And to these may be added the garden hat. All others are for all the year.
