of the new style fall hat, which IS built
on large dropping scale. The crown
of the new style hat, and there is only
one style to be worn, averages about
seven inches high with wide rolling

are of black satin with dash of color

important factor, and they require

in order that she could properly wear

money for the privilege. Custom duties
