The de- sign Is such as one might get from any book illustration-an illustrated edition of Andersen's fairy tales. for instance-and since it Is done in out line and satin stitch, 1t Is quick and simple work.
 Another hint for the girl who has to travel a long way to make both ends meet lies in a sulshade of the softest cream linen, painted with soft bluish- purple hydrangeas.
 Any girl with an iota of artistic taste or talent can make one Of these for herself. given a plain and mex pensive parasol. Each petal of the flower is simply a single splotch or paint, and the linen takes the color beautifully, blending 1t into all sorts of soft shades

 A feather must first be held in the desired position and the ends fastened NOW catch one long double stitch around the point toward the quill. making it loose enough to give the desired grace, and hold it taut with the ringers until a second stitch Is taAen directly over it. The method can be seen from the diagram.

A small straw hat may be enlarged by rim of black or col ored straw, which may be quite easily added. The simple four-looped bow of very wide soft ribbon should match the straw binding.

 number of this seasons hats show facings of satin. A contrasting color is the rule. It Is considered quite the thing to have the facing the color of the hair. as 1t gives 1t an appearance of greater thickness. Many black hats are faced with dark brown for brown haired woman, while the use of brown with all shades of blue, green and even gray is widespread. blue-eyed blonde will find a facing of sapphire blue specially becoming.
 An important thing in refurbishing hat or trimming a new one is to have distinct idea of how you want to do it. Of course. the old materials may be put on in the old way. but usually one prefers a different effect
 Any of the smart imported models shown today are eminently copyable even by q novice.

 She loses not only every variety of tewelry and ornaments, bat her money, parts of her costume, the packages she carries. the dog she takes walking and the book she is reading She swclls the columns of the Lost and Found" de- partment with news of anything from a gold-mounted comb to d handbook.

 In trimming be provided with coarse cotton, No. 20. 0 large milliner's needle, hat and ribbon wire. and some good sized pins. A hat is something in which d woman may indulge her pinning pro- pensities without fear of criticism. as looser and more artistic effects are often produced by a securely placed pin than by the tight sewing that Is too often done by the amateur.
 If the shape of hat is to be changed 1t must be well wired either by brass or by q narrow wire on the edge. This should be fastened by locked stitches an inch or more apart. The proper way to sew a wire may be seen from the diagram, which shows how each stitch is locked.

as the sole trimming on big dropping hats. Sometimes a little velvet ribbon is used at the back or under the bows. In sewing flowers, while they must. of course. be made secure. they should not be 50 tight as to look stiff.
 Almost any woman can make herself . lingerie hat like the model shown. though they are more suitable for the comparatively young. It is merely a crown and circular ruff1e of fine sheer lawn or linen scalloped on the edges in white mercerized cotton and embroid- cred in detached punches of violets and forget-me-nots in the natural tints. The frame is first covered with double fold of chiffon. and Is faced with two lace edged pleatings of white net. White ribbon is tied around the crown in a many-looped bow directly in front.
 In making lingerie hat 1t is well to have the ribbon hook on and the crown and frill adjusted by drawstrings 50 1t can be kept absolutely fresh.
 LARGE HATS REDUCED
 A large hat may easily be made smaller in this day, when bias bands on the edge are fashionable. When the rim has been cut it should be first bound with tarleton so the rough straw will not cut through the ribbon. The strips should form a true bias. and be wide enough to turn in about quarter of an inch on each side after the binding is on. An inch on each side of the brim is the approved width. though this Is more or less a matter of taste. Be care full in cutting especially if velvet Is used, to match the pieces carefully so that the nap and material run the same way. Measure the amount that just fits the hat. sew 1t together at the end and fit over the rim. stretching 1t in the middle and being careful not to stretch the sides. or 1t will quicker. When meas ured, sew the ends together and snap over the brim. Turn in the edges on both sides and blind-stitch on. Be sure the seams come at each side. A binding may also be put on by sewing one side rather tightly to the top of the brim and then turning over and blind stitch ing on the under side. but the first way is more satisfactory.
 The dainty model shown is bound in white satin and has floral crown of mixed ferns and flowers. In this way several different kinds of flowers one happens to have on hand may be util- iZed
