FALL AND WINTER MILLINERY.

Repeated warnings That Hats Arc Going
Up fin Price.
High crowned hats are predicted for this
winter. Among these will be notifications
Of the eloohe. or bell. shape with the brim
slightly inclined downward.
The general opinion. says ths Paris cor
respondent OF the Millinery Trade RegieNs.
seems to be that this style 10 dying out.
but We have had so MANI surprises Of late
that general opinion may again be at
fault.
Undoubtedly it is the picture style OF
hat THAI American buyers will lind most in
evidence in Paris. but it is only 90 a much
trimmed hat that it will be found next sea
son. There ia no intention Of exhibiting
wide uncovered spaces Of brim, and the
row is often 90 concealed by the volume
Of trimming that its actual shape becomes
a matter Of secondary importance.
One hears OF fantastic prices paid for
hats nowadays, not merely by a millionaire's
wife here and there. but by all kinds of
people. "A your buyers will ind to their
cost. prices are going up for hats and BON
nets. This Ia Of course In a great measure
attributable 70 The immense quantity of
trimming heaped upon them n TO the in
creasing scarcity Of many sorts Of valuable
plumage.
Not entirely. however: millinere tell
you that everything h dearsr than It was
when they charge an sxtra IS or 90 for a hat
that no valuable plumage adorns. : This
may be true in a way, though not to the
extent they would make us believe, but
some exaggeratiOn is to be expected.
at appears that a great deal Of plumage
is now imported from China, and IL might be
supposed that the opening up Of this new
market would help to keep prices at this
normal rate. but such does not seem to be
the case. So great is the demand that
sven fancy feathers. for which the farmer
and the trapper provide the raw material,
are fetching fancy prices.
Flowers are more used in the trimming
Of winter models than usual. u might
be- assumed that this 10 a way out of the
difficulty. Not go. h flowers patronized
by the leading millinsrs are Of tho most
expensive sort. Not only are the blooms
themselves made up Of specially woven
materials. velvet, satin. thin silks and
xauzes, but also the leaves, and the varied
coloring applied 10 them 10 obtained by
hand dipping or painting with dyes.

coming are among the best colOrings for
street wear. Certain bronze and dark
foliage greens also ara at their best in velvet,
and many OF the loveliest OF the velvet COS
tunes are In the softer and less aggressive
shades Of purple.
Plain browns and blues are perhaps lees
favored by the fastidiOus. but among the
fancy velvCts these two colors are much in
evidence, and there il one shade OF plain
blue. a rather deep electric tone. which in
combination with chinchilla makes a raw
ishinR costume. though u is less new than
tho more trying and conspicuous royal and
peacock blues.
Monotone shadow effects, are among the

material chosen for the striped model in
