REACTION is SURE
FALL MILLINERY STYLES ARE
TOO EXTREME.
Good Designers Realize That Revision
and Modification viii Be De-
manded by American Women
Who Dress Well.

No siren ever called men to danger
and destruction more effectually than
do millinery openings lure women into
bankruptcy Of dress allowances. The
enticements of the fall openings are
many and deceptive.
At first glance, the average shopper
will decide that all styles are extreme
and she must be resigned. If she Sc
lects her hat on this supposition she
is making a grave mistake, because
after the eXaggerations of the fall
openings will come a reaction in favor
of more sane styles
This much in warning DO not buy
your fall hat, which may have to last
you well into the winter, until you
have studied the millinery field thor
oughly. DO not pin your faith to the
milliners statement that only the ex-
treme styles will be worn. Good de-

Mahara's Minstrels

Mahara's Minstrels. which will
be seen at McAninoh's Opera
House tomorrow night, come
heralded and recommended, The
show numbers 30 people. A new
innovation with the Mahara Min
strels is ladies'. They carry a
dozen pretty women and put on
big chorus. Musical numbers,
marches and singing ensemble
are the strong features. The
show opens with grand scenic
first part, displaying all the mem.
bers in their entertaining sing
ing, dancing, and vaudeville
stunts. Six funny end men help
out in the opening programme of
mirth and jollity The second
part-an olio- consists of pleas =
ing musical numbers, up to date
singing. comedy, vaudeville spe.
cialties and minstrelsy, and if
there could be any complaint it
would be that there was "too
much" show for the money, but
as this is an affair which con-
Germs only the owners of the
show, it is not likely that any
complaint will be made. The
Maharas carry fine band and
will give free street parade at
noon on the day of the show.

signers already admit that the ex-
treme styles of the moment will be
revised and modified within a months
time. The American woman simply
will not be made to look like trump,
and selecting an extreme style for mil
linery for general wear, not occasions,
stamps the woman as the trump, the
person of hopelessly bad taste.
Naturally the first question raised at
fall opening was this:
What will replace the merry widow
sailor?"
And the answer Isl "The English
walking hat, crossed with a mans silk
tile"
Not q promising outlook, is II, espe-
cially for the middle-aged woman Of
conservative tastes? And the oldest
thing about the situation is that the
woma1 who wore the merry widow
sailor is quite sure that she can swing
to the other extreme and look smart
in the severe English hat which the
millinery world is trying to popular
ize.
scribed above, there are many large
and bizarre shapes. The merry widow
shape, probably a trine larger in di-
ameter has a higher crown, and is
bent in the back Another large hat
suggesting the summer picture hat,
but trimmed with wintry fabrics, Is
as broad as the merry widow, but
droops on the sides, suggesting the big
sunbcnnet or scoop-shaped hat
In fact, the extreme hats along
these lines seem almost to touch the
shoulder Fluted brims appear, and
while there is no bandeau, the brim is
sharply tilted on the left side. Crowns
are generally high, some running up
absolutely straight and others gradu-
ated smaller az the top than where
they join the brlm, like a peach bas
ket What few toques are shown at all

Used
Of belt where no belt was originally
intended. And yet if care and taste
be used 1t is perfectly possible to fix
an old gown by the addition of one of
these broad belts in cases where no
other kind of alteration would be
feasible
The costume shown is one of those
useful frocks in which the blouse
may be changed. The bodice part,
which matches the skirt, may be
either in the bolero shape or in that
of bretelles, the only marked differ
ence being that in the case of the
Jacket the lower part is loose from the
belt, while the bodice is made as
bretelles or iumper-fearful menac-
ing, but all useful word--the lower
part is fastened in below the belt In
either case the blouse Is separate.
and the owner of such costume may
vary the effects by having blouse to
match the gown and others of white
ecru, etc. Having a jacket effect, If
not a jacket i'm fact, this gown is a
most useful one for It may be worn
In the street without an extra wrap.
and the change Of blouses makes it
extremely practicable for fairly hard
wear. The gown has a long plain
skirt of most graceful style, such
as looks particularly well in the soft
cashmere of which II is fashioned.
The gown shown Is of pale gray
cashmere, with a belt of black satin
and bands of black satin around the
armholes and lapels. The buttons
used to trim the bodice are also COW
cred with black satin. A hlet blouse
in slightly lighter tone of gray is
worn with this costume. The EN-.
broidery on the lapels is of two shades
of green on pale green pongee
background. One of the notable fea-
lures of this years trimmings is
shown in this costume in the trim
ming, the same being used on the
cuffs of the blouse and on the lapels
of the bodice. As different fabrics
are used for the blouse and the bod
ice Of the Jacket It would formerly
have been considc "a correct to have
different trimmings.

Cotton Slippers.

Bedroom slippers for summer wear
are sometimes knitted in mercerized
crochet cotton, which may be bought
in all colors.
They are, Of course, not nearly so
warm as slippers of wool yarn and,
when knitted on steel kneedles. they
are firm and durable.
Mercerized cotton is very inexpen-
sive and very pretty. In fact, the fin.
,shed slippers are so much like silk
that il seems impossible that they are
not made of that expensive material
The work, too. is nice. for there are
no loose threads about cotton TO get
aught on the sharp needles-as yarn
