Millinery Feature.
Velvet or brocade brims and fur
crowns and the reverse are pro-
nounced feature of all millinery exhib-
its just now. The soft tones of pelts
are very often heightened by bright
colors, such as deep rose and pink
shades, and the bright green's and
blues. Violent contrasts are in favor
with all kinds of furs, and the more
pronounced the touch of color the
smarter the effect Tarnished metal
lie laces and galloons with rare old
laces and brocades are very popular
with furs. A stunning big turban seen
yesterday had chinchilla crown and

The large size mushroom shapes
lend themselves to fur trimmings ad-

coming shapes for youthful faces. The
combining of contrasting furs in hat

with genuine stones of many colors.

is among the odd fancies of the
month. A handsome chapeau of this
character is now being displayed at
an uptown milliner's. The under
brim is of rose color velvet and the
upper one gorgeous brocade. There
is a second brim, which extends into
the crown, giving the impression that
the crown of the brocade part has
been cut out in order to allow the vel
vet to pass through it. At the extreme
left side is a cluster of variegated
feathers, introducing all the rich col.
orings found in the brocade. The
group Of plumes is held at the lower
parts of the stems by a bee hive
shaped ornament made of dull gold
cord.
