from the tiniest buds and little babv

Is often worth a hundred dollars or
more, and when a hat is trimmed with
several it is not difficult to understand
why the father of the fair purchaser
may object to footing the milliner's

A great many Partisan feather nov
elites are used this season. Some are
pleasing and pretty; others are very
gorgeous in appearance and startling
in their originality. Plumes in the
natural dull coloring are decidedly In
favor, and so are the long slender argus
quills. Rosettes and pompons of os-

evening shades and also In the deeper

The popularity of metal effects has
assumed the dimensions of craze this
year and has manifested itself In the

THE hats which Will be seen In

picturesque and very esthetic. Al

They harmonic perfectly with the
rest OF the costuming this season. It
would be strange II they did not, since
gowns and hats alike have taken their
inspiration from the empire and direc-
toire periods,

The hats are fully as responsible for
these fine effects as are the other
portions OF the costumes, and quite as
much study and thought have been ex-
erctsed In their behalf as in the case
OF the gowns.
A marked tendency toward sirnplihed
contours Is noticeable in the millinery
this year. The outlines are direct and
sweeping, not broken up and fussy. as
they have often been IN seasons past.
The materials used are remarkable for
their richness and for their beauty OF
color. Monotone effects are much IN
evidence. Several tones Of one color
are employed in the making of the
hats as well as their trimmings. and

ing OF the name because Il was not
easy of achievement.
During the winter 1T was predicted
that the large hat would have to go,
and that the spring and summer
shapes would be small, or at least
much smaller than they had been.
But the large hats are very becom-
ing and effective and It was found
that the women were not willing to
part with them. There is often a
bold sweep IN the brim OF the new
large hat, yet on the whole 1t shows
an inclination to droop. and the
crowns have Increased to such di-
mensions that some OF them are fairly
enormous. However, IN the good
models care has been taken to bal
ance the proportions so that a gro

to select from woman sometimes has
difficulty in finding a shape that Is

be hard TO please indeed If she can
not find a hat that suits her. If she
looks best in a large hat she can
have 1t and be in style. If medium
or a small shape becomes her better
she can wear either and still feel
that she has the latest thing in mil
linery.

The quaint and pretty poke effects

or tied loosely in front, give a pictur-
