MILLINERY FOR THE SPRING
All sorts and Conditions Of Women
May BE Fitted ont at the
shops.

The correct thing in millinery for the
spring Of 1907 is indefinite to the extent Of
being bewildering. All sorts, styles and
kinds Of hats are being displayed at the
openings IN such variety as should insure
becoming hcadgear to every woman \
leading Omaha designer Is, however au-
thOuty for the statement that the arti-
fetal woman will be the best subject for
the smartcst Of this seasons creations, for,
indefinite as they are, there are sim a few
prevailing characteristics. There is an ele-
mcut Of quantness in evidence that is un-
deuabiy attractive, but equally difficult to
reconcile with the modern woman, for 1t Is
patterned from that period when the EN-
pire costume, with its long, trailing skirt
and other appendages more conducive to
graceful appearance Of the figure was
right than to comfort for practical wear.
The little pokes with loops of velvet or
ribbon or plumes dropping Off behind and
a conglcmeratlon Of flowers and other
things adjoining the 'front.' Is an example of
one Of the smartest patterns, but most Of
the dressy things partake somewhat of its
points and sit well back on the head, with
the dropping adornment at the back and
the narIng front. Some of the plumes droop
10 the shoulders.
be equally popular. Comparatively few of
the Outlandish-and the term is used ad-
visedly--extremes shown In the fashion
plates are being exhibited in the Omaha
shops and most Of the patterns, while con-
forming to all the best tine season has to
offer, are still within the limits of posi-
bility for the average woman. The hat
for the midsummer season Is still rather
indefinite, but some beautiful leghorns
trimmed with careless profusion of roses
or flowers or dropping ostrich plumes are
being shown.
There is absolutely no question regarding
the popularity OF the lingerie hat. 1t has
reappeared with possibilities hitherto un-
dreamed Of and will be one Of the most
effective and dressy bonnets of the mid
summer. Round thread and handkerchief
! linen will both be employed in its construc-
| ton combined with quantities Of val lace
and flowers and ribbons. The tam shape
will be much in vogue, and will be deco
rated with the English eyelet and the
| French embroidery. White and colored
linens will be employed.

% So. An attempt at plainess IN all OF
these sunshades is noticeable The funny
chinons and perishable materials formerly
80 IN vogue are banished 20 the back
ground for The embroidered linens and
the plain silk. The la Belle Toxic, a
model having sixteen ribs and shown fin all
colors, Is considered very good. The 25-inch
parasol is considered the correct size. how
ever. beautiful novelty Is being shown
that has its entire top built on a white
china silk foundation made Of narrow lace
rufiies. The parasol Is finished with a
border Of fancy silk ribbon about six inches
IN width
The hand-embroidered sunshade in white
and colors promises to be one Of the most
popular things and many Of the better
dressed women will have a lrasJl to match
several Of her summer frocks.
In the combination umbrella and sun
shade, the steel rod and natural wood
handle continue In first favor. but for the
parasol the wooden stick and natural wood
handle is the correct thing.

TELESCOPE HATS POPULAR
Pearls and Light Grays to Have
Large Run with Good
nreRaera.

The telescope styles will hold the center
of the stage in hat lines, as nearly every
soft hat shown is made in this peculiarly
effective fashion. The new hat is modelled
after the pattern which was so popular last
year, but the crown will be slightly
higher and the brim slightly narrower in
contrast to the broad brims of last season.
Pearls and light grays will have a large
run this year and the increased popularity
of the pearl is assured, but the season of
gaudy bands has passed after what dealers
term a temporary fit of mental alteration
last season and a safe and sane" season
is now predicted. The bands on the new
hats are usually of material Of the same
shade as that of the hat, although black
bands on gray hats will be worn to great
extent and will be strictly proper.
The extremely light gray and very light
pearl shades in soft hats will be worn more
than ever, and few, If any, blacks will be
seen on properly dressed persons during the
coming year.
While the lighter colors are more likely
to be adopted by extreme youths and young
men, it is predicted that they will be more
popular with the hitherto conservative
dresser Of more mature age.
The hat makers are trying to bring light
brown shades into popular favor, for the
reason that the owner of a brown hat will
necessarily have to buy hat Of another
color as we'll and thus increase sales con-
siderably, but the brown shades are
deemed passe and, it Is believed, will not
be worn to any extent by careful dressers.
Stir hats Of the present season present
more style and a more chic effect than
ever before, the tendency being toward
smaller dimensions I'm both crown and
brim. The brim has more Of a decided
roll and fits closer to the body Of the
hat, which Is somewhat fiattened In ap-
pearance as compared with former STYLES,
but not to an extreme.
Novelties are shown in a high-orowned
hat with a fattened crown, but novelties
and brown shades will not prove popular

The bronze shoe was low. with a very high
heel 1t was fastened In front with a
dashing bow Of very dark bronze gros-
grain ribbon, and the stockings. Of plain.
heavy silk. were in the same shade The
stockings had clocks in the same color.
Next IN popularity TO the brown shoes
for street wear. but a long way behind
when 20 comes TO a question OF general
use, are the gray shoes. These are shown
IN pumps and ties. A very handsome shoe,
but one too elaborate for anything but
house wear or evening wear, was OF gray
undrcssed kid. made very high for a low
shoe that is, quite to the ankle joint. The
shoe had a very hhgh French heel. 1t
opened down the front so as to show the
stocking Above this opening were two
straps Of the kid which crossed each other
and encircled the top Of the shoe half way
toward the back before buttonlng down.
The shoe was heavily embroidered with
steel beads. These shoes were worn with
gray stockings. embroidered in gray.
In spite Of the craze for Brown shoes
there must always be plenty Of black foot
wear in every wardrobe. There are any
number Of new black shoes, pumps, slip
pers and boots in a great variety Of styles

The black stockings are Of three kinds

and those embroidered in bril- liant colored
flowers. In spite Of the very great popu-
larity Of black openwork stockings during
two years past they are stlll sufficiently

the fashions for the spring. The designs
are neat and delicate, and certainly with
a fine black slipper nothing can be- more
charming for dress wear than the more
elaborate openwork designs in black stock

The black stockings embroidered in white
are newer and are considered most desr-
able The white embroidery sometimes

1t is put on in most striking fashion, not
in dots, squares or flowers, but in a SER
pentine design which starts at the insteps
and zgzags up the stocking in front or
from the side to the front 1t is a de-
cidedly novel and striking effect but hardly
in such good taste as the plain black stock
ing.
The black stockings which have colored
embroidery are meant for wear with black
satin slippers. The embroidery is of floral
design, done in clear, vivid pinks and blues.
The embroidery is solid, the flowers being
small morning glories, rosebuds, corn flow
ers, etc.

TRIMMINGS ARE PROMINENT
Garments Decorated with Braids Are
Among the Latest Things to
BE shown,

The spring styles show a tendency to
load suits, dresses, separate coats, waists
and other garments with trimmings. The
cause for this is attributed to the fact
that there is no distlnctlvely new shape
in the garments and so to gain distinc-
ton in style the more exclusive dress
makers have resorted to the use of ex-
qulsite and costly trimmings. The beauty
of these trimmings is especially noticeable
on the new spring suits. A variety Of
braids are conspicuously IN evidence. The
newest perhaps, are the colored braids, in
one color effects well as In several
judiciously mingled colors The mode and
the bronze-the latter being an artistic
blending of the green and the brown-are
the shades which the exclusive tailors and
dressmakers are emphasizing. All Of the
coored braids are designed in the diamond
or curved patterns and often show the
combination of two or more kinds The
fat silk braid in curved pattern and
ornamented with buttons of wound silk
are an example of this sort of trimming.
The soutache and radum braids are among
the most generally used, as nothing has
been found that can quite take their place
in the ornamentation Of jackets, that is,
for the trimming of the collar and the
collarless neck and often the side fronts
and vests. They also make a charming
combination with the wide fiat braids. A
good example of this is shown in a hand
some suit now on display in one of the
windows which is made of light gray, toned
with an invisible check of navy blue. On
the skirt is a large conventional design
some ten inches wide Of the silk braid
in navy blue cleverly outlined with the
soutache braid. The jacket has the fronts
and back, the cuffs and the upper por
ton OF the sleeves almost covered with a
smaller pattern Of the same design. The
result is very effective. Fashion also de-
crees that buttons must also be added to
give a really chic appearance TO a gar
ment And what a variety there is to Sc
lect from. Handsome jeweled and metal
buttons, crochet buttons in black and
dark colors, silk or cloth covered buttons.
The silk buttons must correspond in color
with the predominating color in the cloth
and very harmonious and artistic effects
have been the result.

RUCHINe HAS COME TO STAY
Latest Neckwear Designs show TuHe
to a Greater or Less
Decree.

Women should give special attention to
the new and dainty styles in neclIwear, as
these little fads so in prominence in the
early spring displays distinguishes a gar
mont and gives II chic and stylish APP
pearance. Many pretty styles are in vogue,
the tulle ruche, embroidered linen collar
and cum sets, and many handsome lace
sets The tule ruche has evidently come
TO stay. II is true IL is made Of material
more or less perishable but 1t is inn
mensely becoming, and that is enough to
put It in favor as an indispensable aces
sorry to either the street or evening toilet.
Tulle Is also shirred into all sorts Of COM
plicated forms, which gives a very pretty
and airy finish to a collar. The embroid-
cred collar and cum set continue to be very
popular; indeed, they have become a staple
article, and for the good reason that a
touch Of white at the throat and wrists
is extremely neat dressy and becoming
Embroidered turnover collars Of piquor
linen, with the soft finish, are retailing at
80 to s. cents. These are worn with both
lingerie and silk waists, the fronts being
completed by the dainty little cravat bow
made OF lawn or swiss. which can be easily
Numbered. White stocks trimmGd with
narr0w four-in-hand or Windsor ties and
cravat bows In plaid or plain colored SILK
have been very popular. The lace sets are
not nearly as much IN favor as the en-
broidered ones, as not only are they very
much more exTavagant but they do not
wash so well or keep their shape. There
Is some discussion as 20 the correct height

Fascinating Footwear for Spring.

The traditional spring bonnet, in spite of
its gorgeousness, is positively not to be
compared, in point of bewildering charm
this season, at least, with the spring
output in shoes and stockings. one feels
after an inspection of the exclusive shops
that nothing but a millionaire bank ac-
count will suffice to procure all the rich
ness and variety In this direction that tho
feminine heart longs for Last seasons
shoes and stockings were well enough, but
this seasons stockings and shoes surpasg
them a hundredfold in every point Of at
traction.
The charm IS not I'm the brilliance Of their
coloring. on the contrary, a demure re-
turn to mild Quaker grays and browns is
a very noticeable feature of the new
styles.
But demure, though they be, the shades
OF these quiet colors which are employed in
this springs footgear are Infinitely charm
ing distinctive and coquettish.
In the stockings are quality and design
shown 70 greater advantages in these quiet
shades than I'm the brighter tones. The
silk Is OF the hondsomest quality and the
design both new ana beautiful. There is
great variety OF design and both the open

able footwear for the spring. There Is also
the brown tie and the pump both fashion
able. and no doubt as soon as the season
gets at an warm these wiA-be more pOpu-
lar although not more stylish.
The brown footgear IS shown in an Inv
finite number OF shades. There are brown
ooze boots, with yellow vamps and dark
brown uppers. These are shown to be
worn with plain silk stockings Of the dark
shade Of brown. one OF the nicedes Of
dress Is shown here. The boot, being IN
two colors, gives sufficient variety 20 the
ensemble, and so q plain stocking Is worn.
With a perfectly plain one-c0lOr tie or boot

With a low tie Of yellowish brown kid

ties had steel buckles Of medium size. A
plain gray stocking would also look well
with the combination.
An exceedingly attractive new shoe was
made OF very dark bronze kid. So very
dark was the bronze that at a little dis
lance only the slightest suggestion Of color
distinguished Il from black. And yet Il
was Infinitely richer than black and would

SHIRT WAISTS STILL WORN
Garment Which Has Proved It's Service Is
in Active Demand.
DESIGNERS HAVE SOME NOVEL IDEAS
sleeves VIII Continue TO He short,
but Much of the FuIlness
Has Been Taken
out.

II seems as II the designers have put
forth unusual efforts this spring to please
the shirtwaist enthusiast Never has there
been a larger variety. dainuer or more
effective designs to select from, and better
still. there is a stamp Of newness on every
garment For very early spring wear the
light weight silks are the correct thing
and are displayed IN foulard silks with
coin spots and small dotted designs some
having the background covered with narrow
white stripes. Fancy louisines I'm plaid or
striped designs will be worn not only for
shirtwaists, but for the shirtwaist dresses
Other popular silks are the messalines, In
dia silks, raiahs and chiffon tafetas. Many
novelty silks are also displayed. The lin
gerie waist still continues to hold its
prominent place in woman's affections and
the great possibilities Of making them plain
or drcssy to suit every occasion makes them
more in vogue than ever If their popularity
had not already reached the superlative.
Lawn, hatlste, handkerchief linen, sheer
madras in cross-bar designs and small col
ored dots on a white background, are the
materials which are given prominence in
the spring line. In the construction OF
these waists nothing strilSlngly new is in
troduced, with the exception of the fact
that the shoulders are broader than they
have been for several seasons.
Sleeves Are short.
In fact. the long lines in trimming are
returning to favor. The predicted absence
Of short sleeves did not materialize, as
with few exceptions this is the established
style for this season. The sleeves how
ever, show less fulness, and what there is
has dropped toward the elbow The trim
ming Of the waists is their most attractive
feature. Handsome embroidery valenci-
ennes lace, tiny pin tucked shadow, eyelet
or French embroidery are the trimmings
preferably used, and from these most
charming and striking lingerie waists are
invented. One handsome model seen has
the embroidered insertion set in surplice
style from shoulder to waist line, while the
valenciennes lace insertion is set in series
of vs. the lower one reaching to the center
of the bust. A very chic and dressy APP
pearance can be given 60 these waists by
the addition Of a pretty girdle and sus-
pender design, often called ribbon jumpers.
In selecting the ribbons for these the
models suggest some very artistic ideas,
when the color in the waist decides the
predominant color in the ribbon to be used.
After a general survey Of the spring waists
displayed It will be observed that fashion
accents the continued vogue of very sheer
material deliberately designed with the
daintiest Of patterns and the finest Of en-
| broideres and laces.
