1t is looking little more promising
for the cause of the birds of paradise, for
here on, the large and small hats there
is the effect without the thought of the
cruelty that stands back OF every
aigrette. Grasses and punches Of wheat
are clustered on hats, with just as eff
fective results. There is a decided pen
chant for the wheat stalks, some wom-

which are one mass of this flower.
Many fiat hats with bands of plated
straw and a cabochon at the side are
worn for the morning walks.
Checked silks in huge patterns. are in
evidence for little round-length dresses.
They are rather deliberately trimmed with
lace. and are yelled with tunics of chif-
fon, blue over biue-and-white check,
black over black-and- white check and so
on the darker shade being chosen.
More firmly has the colored sash taken
hold and over here the stockings must
match the sash. In fact, there is a de-
cided vogue for colored hosiery, even
with tailored suits.
Shoes are brought into a color scheme
with the cloth suit by means of cloth
tops, either of plain, striped or checked
material.
Manteaux are generally built on the

that resemble capeS are used on the mod

Millinery Notes.

y n ILLINERS are not waiting fer the
MI acceptance of new coiffures, but
Iva are going gayly on their way, pro-
ducing hats OF interesting variety. Some
of them are charming, quaint; others are
extraordinary in size and line, and tue
rest are wonderfully beautiful in line and
color.
There are some hats that reach down
to the eyebrows, with trimming slopins
abruptly toward the back, giving an I'M
becoming, top-heavy appearance thal
few women can successfully stand. ON
the very tall and slim they are gro
tesque, which is putting ii mildly.
So many becoming shapes are at nalo
that il is a pity to encourage the freak
ish. There are soft straw toques for trav-
cling, including the draped raj2h tuf-
bans, the folded capotes and the closely
fitted shapes with high rolling nrlns d.
the side. Many of these are of psald
straw, or of fortunate comDihalloh VI

of flowers for trimming are we'll adapted
for afternoon wear. If a simpler tyre Is

there is a decided acceptance of the

II would seem trite and unnecessary
to suggest that hat strings belong to
the afternoon hat; but if the fact be
recognized that there are many crimes
against good taste committed in the name
OF fashion, il will be realized that some
facts must be reiterated.

upon which the hat strings can be placed
with impunity. The dropping mushroom

The DTaWn-ln Ge.vn.

wv OMEN are still insistent in the
~ matter of the retention OF the
slender Silhouette, and although
skirts have taken unto themselves "a
more .voluminous outline, there is
straight effect secured on most of the
evening or afternoon gowns by a drawn
in effect near the lower edge of the skirt
This is secured in many ways There
is a clever manipulation of the fullness
of the tunic by gathering the edge into
deep silk or satin hem. This varies
in width. and is a straight band or
disappointed fold.
The fulness of the outer skirt is also
held in by deep hem of contrasting
color and material.
Another scheme is the use of cordings
run through wide tucks. Here is the
opportunity to give the hidden color
display on the skirt. Slot ribbons en-
circling the skirt wind in and out, now
hidden beneath the folds of chiffon,
wolfe or muslin and now bursting into
bars of color.
You see that the full skirts are made
subservient to the demands OF the time,
an evidence that at last the lines OF
fashion are not too compelling. and that
the artistic eye is in control in the de-
Gliding of costume.
