induced femininity to go out of doors
today, and they were out early. too.
AS early as s o'clock thi morning
one of the three millinery shops where
openings were held, had made a sale
of hat, and high priced hat at
that. The chilliness of autumn wealth
er made sales good today, and at all
of the millinery parlors many hats
were sold. A day like this makes a
woman want to discard her summer
straw or lingerie hat, and wear some
thing in felt or velvet. At any rate
the summer hat has seen its day.
The millinery stores of Miss Har-
disty and Mrs. j. NJ. Strange on
Main street and Miss Woollev on
West street, inaugurated the au-
tumn millinery season this morning
with an opening display which rep
resents every hat style decreed by the
fashion arbiters of Europe and New
York. Challenging these in beauty
of design and coloring are produc-
tions from the stores own workroom.
England contributes her coronation
purple for a leading color and the
far east has been called upon for ori-
entail laces and fringe in gold and sill
yer thread and Persian-like minglings
of rich tones in tinsel, beads and rough
jewels. The new and captivating
bonnet shape is developed in very
lovely material.
One model shows the demure poke
effect, while another suggests the peak
worn exclusively by Mother Goose.
In the latter example the peaked
crown is of white silk plush with a
line of white silk fringe defining it
black velvet brim. Side plumes
of white goura rise from pompons
of white marabou.
Another bonnet model is of gold
brown velvet, its soft crown rising in
hornlike drapery toward the back.
There is wide band of gold lace and
contrasting touches of bead embroid-
erv in pink and blue. THE popular tri-
corn retains its prestige; one model
notable for its striking simplicity be-
ing of richest black velvet with a
single large ostrich plume of lettuce
green.
The tam-o'shanter is back with
all the favor that Paris can give.
One pretty and becoming shape is of
black velvet mounted over a draped
velvet brim caught, at the side with a
feather cockade in black and dark
blue.
The new season recognizes the de-
mand for small hats not only of the
bonnet shape, which only young faces
may hope to find becoming, but bv
conservative toques in unique and
distinguished frames and colors. A
Paris model is of amethyst velvet with
four stately French plumes in corona
tion purple and copper bronze.
Another small toque is of night
blue velvet with an old silver brim
draped with folds of velvet and with
side trimmings of goura feathers ris-
ing from an ornament of silver. In
addition to the English purple, in its
varying shades, the Palais Royal ex-
hibit shows every other new style-
tone; Cobalt, limoges and Holland
blue; all the gorgeous gold and yellow
intermingling in metallic laces and
plumes of such splendor as to be
works of art as well as mere ac-
cessories of fashionable dress.
