N%S -
year ago, has gained a firm
$50 hold upon feminine favor, and
this fall the millinerB are making a fea-
ture Of quaint motor headwear.
Bonnets OF innumerAble kinds, each more
old-fashioned and delightful than the other,
are shown In the shops, and while the
demure lines are not becoming to every
woman a clever mllliner can alter a detail
here and a detail there, increase or dimin-
ish the brin, lift the bonnet a little more
off the forehead or let It cling more closely
round the face, soften the harder line by
little frills or make It more serene ana in
such fashion adjust the bonnet to almost
any face.
The poke bonnet while affordinR a little
grateful shade for the eyes Is rather more
trying than the closed rounder shapes and
comparatively few pronounced pokss are
to be seen, although a shape which might
be called a much modified poke is very
popular.
This shape, pictured here in fur with a
shirred motor veil forming the crown and
falling in long scarf ends at the sides, has
a crown round In sides and back but pro-
jecting very slightly in front. There Is
hardly a projection at all, rather a straight
line from crown center to edge instead OF
the curving line elasping the head closely
on sides and back. The bonnet leaves a
mere glimpse of low falling front hair
showing in some models, In others It sits
quite low over the forehead.
This model is much liked in the short
haired furs, such as seal, baby lamb, etc,
and lie good too in long nap beaver. One
model made up in seal, in baby lamb, 10
moleskin and In beavers Of various color
ings has for trimming a wide, soft ribbon
run through wide Sits in the bonnet Just
above the brim across the front, tied in
soft Knots at each side, just over the
ears, and then left in long strings to tie
under the chin.
One In seal with an exquisite shade Of
greenish blue ribbon. soft on one side and
MORE on the other, was much admired
at = recent opening and an impractical but
charming bonnet on the same lines was of
long nap white beaver with black satin
and MORE ribbon.
A bonnet OF baby lamb with a poke q
little more pronounced had its ribbon
trimming arranged differently. 1t appeared
through two closely set Sits on the from
OF the brim, was drawn softly up on eaci
side to pass through two Sits well up OF
the crown and a little to the side Of tn,
front and then brought down to the edg'
Of the brim just back Of the ears. wher,
IL was held by round buckles covered b,
the ribbon and heading the strings.
Closer shapes in fur are also shown. 4
plain round crown OF q crown very slight
fulled may be Of fine, supple fur and as
ISOLATED with a close. narrow little briu
fitting snugly around the head. In som
OF the models this brim as well as tn
crown OF fur and the trimming consists
a veil swGthed round the bonnet or Of
narrowly folded satin ribbon passs
round the crown and finished with chou
ana strings at the sides.
