the effect extra bewitching.
A woman who was asked to donate
something for a fair up in the Cats
kills last summer. made half a dozen
pairs of bath slippers or bedroom
mules as she called them, which were
voted the prettiest thing on the table
and which brought three dollars
pair to swell the worthy fund for
which the fair was given. These mules
were patterned after the sort which
the Dowager Queen Alexandra of En-
gland has made to her special order.
The woman who made them for the
fair bought at the village store some
ordinary soles such as are sold for
worsted slippers. These soles she COW
cred on both sides with pink satin. At
the front, instead of toe were placed
two satin flaps which Joined over the
instep under a large button mould
covered with the satin. The mules
worn by Queen Alexandra are made
of dainty brocades in light colors and
the flaps are fastened with rhinestone
set buttons, but the satin affairs made
for the fair were voted a great sue
cess. The flaps at the front allow the
foot comfortable freedom while walk
ing around the bedroom.
An article that always sells success
fully is the calendar or bIotter deco
rated with a photograph. The woman
who owns a camera can make very
pleasing little donations of this sort.
Even blue prints, mounted on blue
plotting paper, will bring in twenty
or twenty-five cents If the photo
graphic prints are interesting enough.
Hand coIored prints are very attrac-
tive when mounted on cardboard fold
ers which may be used later for
Christmas greetings, and 1t is not at
all difficult to color photographs sue
cessfully with the special japanese
tints which come for this purpose.
Ordinary water colors are too thick
and do not allow the shadows to show
through.

model in navy blue, the brim being
faced with deep purple velvet and the
pointed "donkey's ears" of velvet
poised across the front being lined
with navy blue satin. A touch OF
metal braid with blue and nauve
threads unites the two seemingly
clashing colors in a smart harmony.
Dashing Bows of Silk Fan Trimming.
Few of the new hats show ribbon
trimmings, but there are many good
looking bows of silk-a rep weave
heavier than bengahne, and the new
lustrous taffeta being the silk used.
These bows are often tremendous in
size and, of course, the silk is wired
to keep such large loops in position.
A photograph shows the manner of
trimming with silk bows. the big loops
entirely covering the high crown of
the hat with one or two loops stand
ing even higher at the back. This hat
is a very attractive model of violet
colored felt, the taffeta silk bows be-
ing a changeabIe violet and gray ef-

so that the wings would come at the
back and the hat would be equally
modish and correct. This hat has the
very tall, pointed torpedo" crown and
is perfectly round at the base. The
crown is covered with brown velvet
and the wings are brown with hecks
of coral pink, the brim facing match
ing this coral pink color. This model
promises to be a favorite with younger
women. The hat is worn, as the pic
ture shows. slightly tipped back on
the head.
Another youthful hat that resem-
bles this model in shape is the rolled
brim model with a soft grebe breast
forming the brim facing. This beau
tiful model hat has a high crown and
flexible brim of white French felt,
the feather facing being in shades OF
Dutch blue which grow darker be-
meath the hat. The bow is a grace
full one of white velvet, and as in the
case of the wing on the brown and
coral hat. may be worn either at the
front or the back.
Pure White Tailored Hats Fall Fad.
Already the pert little Pierrot
shapes of snow white felt are appear
ing in the shop windows. and several
of these hats have been noted on
young women at the beaches. These
white hats, trimmed with white wings
or bows, promise to be the conspicuous
feature of early fall, but whether the
pure white hat fad will last over into
the winter it is hard to say. Unless
made too common. such hats are
charming particularly on young
girls; but alas for a dress fad of any
sort that takes in New York. BY
the time the last milliner on Four
teenth street has stocked up with the
moments craze, it has been banished
from the smart shops in the vicinity
of Thirty-fourth street, and no mat
ter how charming it is in itself, its
day is done. But just at first we are
sure to see many of the pretty, pure
white chapeaux with fall tailored suits
of worsted and mohair.

velour hat Is foremost among new hat

models had bell-shaped crowns and
very tiny brims, but the new velour
shapes are more dashing, with i'm

and wider briIns that may be rolled

last season. A new velour model which

women, others should prove becom-
ing on almost anybody, provided the
hair is arranged correctly and the
neckwear is trim and in good style
but these two considerations should go
without saying. when the wearableness
of a new hat style is concerned.
The Coronation red hat by Marie
Crozet is a Paris creation that hints
at the extravagant favor for wing
trimmings. The wings on this hat are
short and blunt in shape and com
pletely cover the crown, starting at its
base and running up on all sides to a
peak at the top. The brim rolls up
all around, the left side being carried
up to a sharp point which lends the
hat a certain dash and gaiety. This
hat is of Coronation red taffeta silk
with a velvet brim facing in a slightly
darker shade. The wings are in a
soft grayish-red color which is ex-
ceedingly beautiful, the color growing
grayer or redder as the position of the
hat is altered in the light.
COIors Come into Their Own.
After a long period of black and
white in millinery, it is rather discon-
certing to see so many gay colors, and
/ one instinctively feels 4 could never
wear anything so gay" as one looks
round for a friendly black and white
or all black model. This craze for
colOrs is the result, of course, of the
coronation last June. when the En-
glish court abandoned it's mourning
garb for King Edward and blossomed
out in purple and red in honor of the
new sovereign. Queen Mary has a
strong penchant for gay colors and if
not respectfully held in check by her
r, L
glazing bright colors in the same cos
tune. Her love of vivid hues has IN
doubtedly done something toward the
revival of color in dress this season.
Another French hat with wing trim
mfngs that completely covered the tall
crown was a beautiful Georgette
model. This hat was a helmet affair
with the high crown slanting down
over the ears and then turning up in a
graceful roll which rose higher at the
back than at any other place. The hat
was a long-haired beaver model in
bright navy blue and the wings which
sprouted up in tiers over the crown,
were in shades Of blue and green.
Trimmings at the Back Fall Feature.
If you propose to trim your fall hat
yourself, you cannot go far wrong if
you place a pert pair of wings or a
sharp pointed bow directly at the back;
and the back trimming must show a
trifle above the high crown, from a
front view. Many of the hats may be re-
versed and worn any way that proves
becoming. For example, the smart
little hat Of velvet with a rolled brim
faced with a lighter colored material
and having a pair of Mercury wings
directly in front, might be whipped
around the other way If one desired

The apron illustrated is made OF flow
cred lawn of a quality that can be
bought for ten or twelve cents a yard.
With the addition of two yards of rib
bon a very satisfactory gift may be
donated to the fair at trifing expense.
There is usually good deal Of work
on elaborate chafng dish and tea
aprons trimmed with ruff1es and lace
insertions. but some of the work may
be avoided If instead of hemming
long strings for the waist, ribbon ties
are attached to a bit of embroidery
which binds the top of the apron.
Or strip of beading may be used,
the ribbon being passed through this
and formed into a rosette which may
be pinned at the side when the apron
is donned.
Boudoir caps always sell like wild
fire at a fair. These caps are extreme
ly fashionable now and, since they are
easier to make than to launder, most
women like to have a constant sup
ply Of fresh ones. A pretty boudoir
cap can be made from circle of fine
lawn run with a casing at the edge
and finished with a three-inch frill of
lace. A ribbon and bow cover the
casing and seam where the frin is

7 EAR or Two ago Wnen we
were under the thraldom of
low miIlinery-when huge
- crowns and fat brims made
womankind resemble mushrooms
growing on long stalks-how we could
laugh to be sure. at the queer tin
types taken of ourselves during the
late eighties when hat crowns were
tall and narrow with trimmings fiat
tened against them like vines clinging
to a tower. and heads, topped with
these tall hats looked very tiny above
the immense sleeves that were the
vogue.
But here we are again at a season
OF steeple crowned millinery and
sleeves belled out and even whale
boned out at the elbow are more than
mere Paris rumors. It never pays to
laugh at fashion. Who knows but at
the next turn Of fashions wheel It will
be unescapably ours? The fall hats
are to be very, very tall-that point
IS assured; and sharp, stiff trimmings
will make some of them even taller
than ever. And these new tall hats
are really a good deal higher, in actual
measurement of inches than the hats
so lately considered grotesque-of
the eighties; for the high crowns do
not rest on the head as they did then
but settle down over 1t so that several
inches Of the crown slope downward
below the point where the head
touches the inner side.
Tail Hats Make Women Taller.
These very high crowned hats GER
tainly do lend height to their wearers
and for this reason are usually becom-
e8que and graceful as more spreading
shapes. One must be smartly tailored
and beautifully groomed to make the
tall, severe hat look well, and the
proba bility is that many women this
fall will sacrifice mere prettiness to
dash and smartness because of this re-
quirement in dress.
With these smart, high crowned
hats, tall, well-boned neekwear will
be worn and the hair will be dressed
low over the ears. and earrings
particularly the graceful, swinging
sort, will lend an extra touch of dash
and knowingness.
Wings to be a Favorite Trimming.
Six new fall hats are illustrated to-
day, and these hats show the style
features which have been decided on
for the early autumn and winter by
Paris. Some of the hats have come
directly from French milliners; others
have been built by authoritative mil
liners in New York. All are typical
OF the shapes materials and trimming
that will be with US after August hal
slipped around the corner and fall
openings commence.
These hats show both moderate and
extreme styles. and while some Of
them will be possible only for prett,

complexion more into relief.
RalxIsh Velour Hats Again Appear.
Last fall the flexible velour hats
which chung closely to the head and
had soft crowns and brims that might
be bent up or down anywhere, made
their first bow. These hats proved so
comfortable and so practical for
knockabout wear that they have been
retained in fashions favor and the
