Ring out the old, ring in the new, ex-

the last Of the summer season, certainly
the flower and fancy feather houses are,
although the tailored and ready-to-wear
hat people as we'll as the dealers In UNI
trimmed shapes have profited largely by
the vogue Of scantly trimmed hats. The
flower and fancy feather trade are pre-
pared to offer such attractive goods for
fall season that they are confident OF win
ming out.
The new high-crown hats argue we'll for
wings and all outstanding trimmings,
branch effects and cockades.

wings in the Coming Millinery.
There are many varieties of wings in
the market, and some of the smartest hats
seen to date have been trimmed with
wings The newest method OF using them
is to mount them point upward to en-
circle the crowd, no matter how high, or
If the crown has the toppled over back
wards look which is being favored, the
wings are mounted to conform to that out
line. White wings are considered import
ant and there are many that are brightly
coored on one side, and folded over to
give glimpses Of the under side. There is
preference shown for sharply pointed
effects over the stubbier variety. This is
true of all lines, for bows and draperies
are fashioned into projecting points which
shoot out or up at exaggerated angles, and
as all the world knows crowns terminate
in decided peaks and tower and toppe
at angles that make a fine point of bal
ance.
Ostrich Feathers for Fall.
In ostrich novelties there are many
clever ideas. Clusters of small feathers
or even tiny tips are a good arrangement
for the present mode. There are bands to
cover the entire crown, even It be Pier
rot or FOOLS cap, and on a colored hat the
feathers used usually match the hat Os-
trich is wired so that the ends turn up in
stead of down, and many of these effects
are uncurled The demand for colored
ostrich Is still strong and while black will
of course become stronger, as 1t always
does for winter II is expected that the
demand for colored feathers will continue
throughout the season. Black velvet hats
frightened with vivid ostrich plumes were
introduced last season and proved very
successful, so that IL seems reasonable to
suppose the coming season will follow in
this respect. Then, too, has been pre-
viously slated, feathers matching the
body of the hat or blending in with II are
very smart, particularly feathers. bands
and flat effects that may be applied flat
against the crown or brim OF hat.
Coming Fall Trimmings.
The aigrette agitation has, of course, re-
suited in the sale Of many imitation
aigrettes, Numidi promises to be popular
trimming; 1t is used as aigrette is used
and is, of course, most in keeping with the
lines OF the new hats Aigrettes are very
much in evidence in Paris and will con-
tinue to be worn despite the efforts of the
Audubonites.
Breasts and bands of fancy feathers In
solid and variegated colorings, small wings
and large and an endless variety of bush
and fan effects cockades and showers are
being offered in domestic and imported
goods and IL seems reasonable to suppose
that the fancy feather business will more
than offset any deficiencies In the sale
of flowers during the season past
Ribbons very much to the fore. En-

LusterIess weaves In Favor.
There are OF course, many novelty
weaves in plaid and figured designs and
many double face and fancy edge effects
that ought to prove popular. Picot edges
are being shown and there are bows made
OF lace edged ribbons, a valenciennes edg-
ing being put in without fullness Judg-
ing from the ribbon trimmed models seen
to date, lusterless weaves appear to be the
favorite. There is, however, considerable

colors and from three to five inches in

and as the color is q good one there Is no
reason why II should not continue in

very smart and because OF this velvet
