NEW FEATURE IN MILLINERY
Summary Of Points About the Styles
That It VIII Be Well to Keep
Always In Mind.

To sum up this seasons new mill
tinery features, we want to remember
that the head sizes are large; that the
hats set we'll down on the head; that
the crowns are moderately high; that
the tailored hats are small, the dress
hats large; that everywhere there is
Irregularity OF brim and crown; and
that the smartest hats have but lit
tie trimming and are in combination
effect.
A buckle, for example, covered with
fur will give a smart touch to a vel
vet or satin hat and Just think how
little fur is needed. A few scraps of
satin can be shaped into wings and fin
lshed with an embroidery stitch. and
thus make new style trimming for
last years hat. And then, too, the
idea of having the crown and brim of
the hat Of contrasting materials is
helpful to the woman who wishes to
remodel the hat she wore last year.
