of fancy feathers. The crown, composed
wholly of viii q rose petals. is in strik-
ing contrast to the deep. rolling brim,
which is faced with closely shirred black
maline and forms soft, dusky frame for
the features. This type Of hat seems des-
tined to be one of the most popular of
this seasons shapes. as it is not quite as
severe as the regulation tricorne, and yet
has something of the three-cornered out

they always commend themselves to the
woman who has to make one dressy hat
serve for several seasons, as they are
equally well adapted for summer or win
ter use. Because toque of this charac-
ter is designed to be worn with a va
riety of costumes, it is best to have the
crown of foliage, which, while it may
appear to be weighty, In reality is ex-
ceedingly light. The new foliage shades
from light to dark, and is used In tints
of green and brown. The Gage model
here shown has a crown of shaded green
foliage, a brim wreathed with white lilac
sprays and knot and bands of pale
green velvet ribbon defining the crown.

The Tea Cozy.
The tea cozy is also an English insti-
tuition and is considered as essential to
the perfectly drawn cup Of tea as the
kettle or pot. The English mistress al
ways makes tea with her own hands,
and after she has added the boiling wa
ter she covers the pot and envelopes 1t
with its voluminous coy for exactly five
minutes for the first drawing.
As in all social functions. the individ-
uality Of the hostess can be discerned
in her afternoon teas, and. however
modest may be the outlay on the vi
ands. her social success is assured If
she has the reputation of providing a
really hot and well made beverage. The
drawing room tea kettle Is brought in
with the water merrily boiling and the
tea made before the eyes Of ALL Fresh
breWinps sent for from the kitchen for
late Corners mean extra service for the
maids, so these demands are avoided by

Russian Tea.
The Russians. who stand even ahead OF
the English in the attention and care
given to their tea making. make their
tea by the aid Of samovar. and sip it
instead of drinking 1t. Their preference
is for Chinese tea, which is carried over

red is only for winter use, cerise, cherry
red and other vivid tones are lending
brightness to many Of the black shapes
designed for all summer wear.
In some Of the early French millinery
is noted also the soft blues and odd
green's which, while not practical for
street dress shades. make an ideal relief
for a costume of neutral tint. Notw tn
standing the vogue Of the color-trimmed
black hat, the all-black CONNECTION has
lost none of its prestige. There are num-
bers of women all over the country who
regard such a chapeau as the piece de re-
sstance of their millinery outfit, and be-
lieve that none other will do to wear with
the ceremonious costume. Milan, hemp
and hair shapes of the w.de-brimmed pic
ture variety are garnished with clusters
of rather short ostrich tips, with huge
maline choux and with great bows OF
plated lace wired to form butterfly wings
and intermingled with black velvet rib
bon. This latter treatment of the all
black hat is most. suitable for quite
young girl and an ideal accessory for a
white serge or mohair costume.
Women who appreciate the softening
effect to the face of a velvet-lined hat
brim are hailing with delight the return
of that fashion of a former decade. 1t
applies. OF course. to the shapes which
have an upward fare. and especially to
the Napoleon, which Is at its jauntiesi

chip with q yelvet-faced brim. Then
there are the perennially popular leg
horns, which never show to better advan-
tage than when faced with black velvet
although If. really summary effect is
desired. as in the case of many Of the
hats designed for the Palm Beach season
an inch-wide band Of velvet may outline
the upper edge of the brim.
Rose garlands are a prominent feature
among the spring hat trimmings, AND
while these exotics are rather too fragile
for continuous wear. there surely Is moth

wreath the crown, lying closely against

sacrificed. Or the wreath is wound par
TALLY over the upturned brim. and IN
some instances literally outlines it--a
treatment which is eminently successful
when small roses are used to trim one Of
the spring turbans.

velvet or ribbon. twisted in and out Of
the foliage. For toques, many of the
small. finely petaled flowers are used,
and always with happy effect, as q Line
of velvet at the edge of the brim lends a
softening expression to the face. Truth
to tell. flowers coming directly against
the brow are trying to the most youthful
countenance, and the milliner who thor

the Russian turbans, which may be
classed as among the -brim order, and
species of inverted basket shape Of the
high and wide crown oroer. The greatest
license is accorded in the matter of trim
ming such shapes. For ordinary service
there is nothing more practical than a
scarf OF soft silk wound loosely about the
crown and clingfng closely to the edge of
the brim, the ends tied in a fat soft
bow run through with a fancy buckle
Flowers frequently garnish the dip-brin
hat, often put on crosswise from the left
to the right side of the brim. and almost
entirely concealing the top Of the crown.

a youthful face-a term which, in this era
of beauty parlors, not infrequently de-
scribes the countenance OF many women
who are approaching the half-century
mark. Now that the hair Is worn SO low,
or rather. so close, the Napoleon neces-
sarily sets we'll over the brow. but the
position of the points of the tricorne de-
pend wholly upon the shape of the face
beneath it. In the case of an oval con-
tour, the points may project directly over
each ear and the brsm flares straight UP
from the brow, whereas we'll rounded

brim flares slightly toward the left side
with one point dipping just forward OF

son for utterly discarding the shape
which may possibly be made becoming
by the outstanding arrangement Of big
