if you can wear them. OF course,
they mug the cheeks and are brought
down over the hair, so that they
reveal only the perfect contour, and
naturally make the nose more promi-

Large hats with dropping brims
are seen at the restaurants and also
on the streets or in limousines when
milady is calling or attending the
matinee. The hat, of course, is cor
rect in box at the theatre, but the
fetching little pokes and Normandy
caps, made of the gilt threaded lace
or lustrous velvets, are much more
suitable and becoming for the oc-
| casion.
The Dressy Kind of Hat.
Both lace and malines are at the
height of fashion, and sometimes
both are used on the same hat for
dress wear, lace being yelled with
the airy malines. Sometimes a
touch of fur adds contrast, and on
the same hat there may be a cluster
of the pretty little silk or chiffon
roses with their glistening metallic
leaves. The heavier laces, such as
macrine and Venise are used for
uuIlllueIy, anu JH6Se ldC6S, ld1u on
folds of black maline, and veiled
with more of the cloud-like stuff, are
very rich in effect. All sorts of airy
trimmings are being thought out by
milliners to take the place of the
beautiful but prohibited aigrettes.
Paradise feathers, burnt coque, vul-
ture and goura are all used, but of
all these the paradise feathers are
the most graceful. The odd little
jockery chapeaux of Paul Poiret have
band crowns that fit around over the
hair like coronet and from these
emanate towering loops of malines,
which spring upward and fall back
like water into an electric fountain.
A hat of this sort, made of gold
braid studded with blue turquoise
| and with black malines loops sprout-
| ing geyser-like from the top, was
worn recently by fashionable young
lady. The funny little hat accom-
panied a frock of lustrous fabric
! that looked like a silky permo mix
ture, which was yelled with a black
chiffon tunic, heavily weighted with
gold fringe.
Peacock Feathers in Vogue.
1t is a strange fact that many of
our novel hats are worn by middle
aged women, who have had supersti-
tions for years about peacock feath-
ers and these hats are trimmed with
| bands of peacock plumes and 9TH
ers are almost entirely covered with
the pretty breasts of the bird, as
well as its tail feathers.
Again, we see little peacock orna-
ments at the side of the hat and we
wonder if woman is becoming more
sensible or, if she is such an admir-
er of Dame Fashion that she will
follow her willy nilly-no matter
what her fears may be in regard to
the bird of i'll omen.
A hat of great charm was shown
| this week in fashionable milliner's
and was composed of black velvet;
the shape was small and decidedly
| becoming to most features and con-
tours of face. The brim turned up
at one side and rolled a little on the
! other-and this is always a safe
model for the irregular features.
Over the crown a soft silver cloth
was draped and wreath of hand
some pink roses encircled the crown
and was carried over to the left side,
where handsome large velvet bow
fastened it and stood up at the side,
tall enough to add height
This is one of the beautiful effects
and is not too dressy for afternoon
wear.
A Word For Hat Crowns.
The crowns are all so very dis
similar that they truly need a word
| of notice. The most popular hat at
! present has the peaked crown. 1t
has the tall roof as well as trim
ming. The tailored hat may be of
felt in any shade that matches the
gown, but it has almost invariably
the upturned, rather narrow brim
and the square crown. 1t fits rather
snugly about the face and down over
the hair. The large hats, with the
wide sweeping brims have the round
| crown, dome shaped and not very
small. Nothing is small in the way
of crowns, in fact, since the large
crowns appeared three years ago, we
have had no smaller ones of any per-
ceptible account
Another crown that makes a fur
ore at the present day, is the Tam
O'Shanter. The soft velvet falls in
square sort of pad on the centre
of the hat and projects in the same
manner as the real Tam O'Shanter.
1t is hat that is becoming to most
faces and is always becoming to the
young girl, and so is selected by her
| as general favorite.
The soft felt are exquisite in quail
ity and they are so expensive that
one really pays for the hat this sea-
son as well as the trimming and
style.
Leave your fine trimmings for your
pieture-hat, or your velvet turban
shapes and wear your tailor-made of
finest quality with no trimming more
than a wing, ribbon bow, or a tiny
| ornament as the trimming. Feathers
may appear on something, but they
are always more appropriate for the
large hat.
