ROSES ON ALL WINTER HATS.
OF Every Color and Hue, and the
Larger the Better.

Roses Of every color and hue. big as

Is the color that takes. OF course a
luxuriant big rose, though of satin and
silk and in the shades of pink never to
be seen on real flower, helps to en-
liven the feelings. rose hat makes
one feel positively young. and young
faces more than ever like flowers
themselves.
The ribbon roses which adorn a
dressy hat just from Paris are made
of many shades of pink satin ribbon in
one instance, and In another of curious
shades of dead white and greeny white
to look like bride rose.
1t may seem folly to pay four dollars
for a single artificial rose, yet that is
what fashion is doing, and the ribbon
roses cost as much If not more.

FlaTant offences against school rules
