linery questions:
VIII some one kindly tell me. will some
one answer why women make "frightss

ions DEGREES, when becoming headdress.
motto9
Why do big. fat women Invariably wear
tiny little bonnets that look like a pea
nut on a pumpkin?
Why does the woman with face the
size of dime always wear hat as big
as an umbrella?
Why does it take a woman week to
buy a hat when a man can buy one in
sc seconds?
Why will woman refuse to give 80
cents to charity and turn right around
and pay $50 for a hat?
Why does the woman with a long nose
buy a hat like dinner plate, which only
the snub-nosed variety should ever dare
to wear?
Why does a tiny little woman wear
huge all black hat which makes her
look like a black-headed pin?
Why does the grandmother of 60 want to
wear "Beebe' hat and the maiden OF
bashful 16' one million years old?
Why will the woman who is out at the
heels eXpend a small sized fortune on
the other end of her anatomy
Why does the woman who is high and
scarce, with figure like a string bean,
always wear a little ''weeny' toaue?
And why. Oh why. is it that the only
hat woman is nearly dying for al
ways costs $50, when her purse only re-
spends to the call of 30 cents?

The juvenile department, too, is full
of pretty things. Everything that one
could wish, of junior suits, cunning hats

In the tailored gowns and street froclks
the new colors may be found in every

navy and golden brown which, it seems,
will always be good.

Bynum Millinery Co.

At Bynum's yesterday some exquisite
hats were shown to the throng of Wis
iting women of fashion. This store is
spacious and every part, both down stairs
and on the second floor, is filled with
pretty things. The windows show a num-
Der of hats of the generous proportions
dictated by fashion, the large dropping
brims adapting themselves admirably to
the styles of almost any wearer. Many
of these are in black and as elsewhere in
the store others show a charming touch
of black, either in facings, beneath the
brim or in trimmings. The small hat is
not ignored either-some of the most
chic to be found are medium, with roll
brims and high trimming.
One Of the most stunning hats exhib-
tied yesterday is fashioned of peacock
blue ribbed silk. The brim Is extremely
broad and the entire effect of the hat
absolutely charms There are five willow
p1umes placed effectively against the
large low crown near the back

model Is made of navy blue velvet,

Burgers.


A bewildering array of feminine head
gear and wearing apparel greeted the
thousands of visitors to the Burger store
yesterday, the occasion being the fall
opening. From the show windows at the
entrance to the furtherest corner on the
top floor this popular shop had the APP
pearance of dainty fairyland, while the
throng of pleased and smiling femininity
which crowded it all day made it very
delightful place.
In all openings the millinery department
is the principal thing, and nothing was
left undone in Burgers millinery display
There were hats of every description to
suit any pocketbook There was the

Tanguay shape, an extreme sailor ERECT,
made of taupe colored satin and trimmed
with handsome, genuine bird of para
disc and flowing peacock blue satin rib
bon draped around crown, elaborate
buckle on side and finished with scarf,
for $65. Next to this was the Elmer
shape for $42 80, several white and black
plumes being used in the trimming.
There was also a great display of silk
beavers trimmed with passementerie and
plumes while tailored hats were also in
abundance. One style which bids fair to
be very popular is the Pocohontas effect
in taupe and moose green shades, and
ranging in price from s. to SIS.
In the ready-to-wear department the
princess and directoire effects trimmed in
handsome style were shown. Braids, but
tons and passementeries appear in abund-
ance on these suits. The skirts flare and
the fashions in general are those of 100
years ago. Most of the bodices and
waists are tulle and net effects ana many
with gold and Persian lace effect and
passementertes.
New fabrics Of every description are
displayed in the dress goods department,
an extremely wide range meeting the
most exacting demand. Especial pains
were also taken in the showing of rugs
and draperies, many new styles being
shown.

compliments during the day, though the
close of the day found many Of the fig-
