ones, that isturn up along the great
er part OF their brims. Some Of these
roll all around, others on two sides,
boat shape; still others with one side
greatly turned up, the other less so.
The word side is used to mean sim.
ply section Of the brim, since the
rolleG-up side" Is almost invariably
placed in front.
Crowns are of all sizes and shapes
It Is impossible just now to hit upon
one which shall be popular more than
another.
Turbans will be worn, OF one sort or
another, for the next six weeks, but
after that--notte, we are still quoing
the Hat Prophet--their vogue will
lessen greatly.
There Is one interesting point to be
observed Nearly all the hats tip
slightly, being worn lower on one side
Of the head than the other. Now, the
angle of this slope is, or should be,
exactly the angle from the bridge of
the nose to the tip OF the ear-that
is, an imaginary line drawn across
from the top OF the nose to the top
of the ear will show the same amount
OF slope from the horizontal as should
appear in the hat, properly placed on
the head.
A Paris correspondent writes:
All the fashionable hats are posed
half on the front of the head, half on
the side. They really sit astride of
the head. The best are suggestive of
the Napoleons, but are larger and the
brims are more outstanding. In mes
saline or in black velvet, tied with a
pretty veil, the hats are stunning. But
one must see to appreciate them.
They are simple, both as to decoration
and shape, for the shape is nothing
but a medium high crown, round,
with a brim that stands straight up
all round.
Some of the new hats OF this shape
are of seal or seal imitation, and are
very elegant. They require little, If
any trimming. Nothing Is necessary
but a rich short plume, "a thick aigrette
or some OF the pretty butterfly effects
given in gold or silver braid. Cock
