A simple example of the Little Cor
poral is seen IN this hat of rough straw
in dull shade of rose. A band of wide
black satin ribbon trims the high
crown, and on the sharply upturned
front of the wide brim is set black
satin ribbon double bow holding tall
aigret OF black horse hair.
The style of this hat depends largely
on the way in which 1t is posed. with
one point directly over the left ear. 1t
is intended for wear with plain tail
ored suit similar to the black and
white shepherds plaid. which has a
notched, mannish collar with white
pique side roll.
To nearly every woman this other
model of flexible brown Tagal straw
will be becoming, as well as eminently
practical for travelling, as 1T shades the
eyes, sets firmly upon the head and
lends itself TO veil draperies. The wide
brim, rolling at the left side, and
slanting gradually at front and back
into a depressed peak, is narrowly edged
with fine white braid, while a wreath
of large white roses and tapir foliage
partially encircles q wide, low crown
draped with maline OF the same shade
as the straw.
The brown and white checked wors-
ted tailored coat has a diagonally closed
front outlined with satin in two brown
shadcs
