with small face must be as careful
as she who has large one, and those
with long, round or oval faces all
must study their one particular style

Stiff shapes as well as soft shapes
vie with each other for supremacy in
popular favor The stiff shades are

to the older or very young faces, but
to the tailor made, trim, business look

crowns-round, medium high and the
crown is trimmed with fold of satin

satin for the sake of softening effect
If the hat is made of two or three
folds of velvet soften it materially,

whatever else is required. The edge
of many of the velvet hats is finished
with band of mirror velvet or satin.
The satin shapes of last winter are
still worn but are not considered so
very smart, and the tulle lett-ins on
velvet hats are also still worn. While
there never were so many hats trim

New York, Jan. 19.-Is there ever
a time when a woman does rot need
just one new hat? What, with the
summer fogs and bleaching SIN, and
the curel winds and rain storms OF
intef, millinery, which is usually OF
the most perishable goods, has a hard
time of it, and my lady is always in
need of something more for her good
appearance. AT the present moment
there are absolutely different styles,
each and all of which seems to be
the very latest and most admired.
There are large hats and small hats,
severe hats and elaborate hats. hats
with wings and hats with roses, hats
with flowers and hats with feathers
black, white, red, green, blue. as well
as the pastel shades. and those duller
tints that are so popular this winter

without saying, but the ideas of what

many women adopt Now every
woman wishes to be smart and pic

one woman in hundred and that
young one, who can be picturesque
