Mll q! Gossip.

Color, color. every whore aud riot
Of shades and hues strange and
startling, contracted with much black
combined with sparkling jet character
ICES the spring millinery shown at the
shops Monday when the local milli-
ners announced themselves as ready
for the calls of their patrons. Other
characteristics shown in the spring
models were angular shapes, extreme
ly high trimmings on the left side,
lightness Of weight, and soft, fine
braids with very little straw trimming.
Last year saw great many touches
Of the brilliant shades called "Bul.
garian". This seasons hues far out
reach these email touches of blues
and reds and puppies and the most
gorgeous sunset has nothing on some
of the creations prepared for. milady' Is
summer adjoining. The Tango"
furore has spread to everything con-
nected with woman's costuming and
the Tango shoes shown at Wicherski's
are just step ahead of the Tango
hats that are shown in every millinery
store in town. The name, however.
does not refer to the shape of the
hats but to colors and the Tango
shades range from q light tan to
deep, dark, rusty reddish brown but
every one of the shades contains a
hint OF mahogany. Shades as widely
different as scarlet and golden brown
become Tango by this hint OF maho-
gany in them and one can hardly pick
up hat that has not some of the
Tango tints in its makeup.
In general, shapes are small and
there seem to be two general styles,
the low, fat, round hat and the varia-
tions of the angular, tri-corner hat
trimmed with pompons. The trimming
is set on at smart angles and it is safe
to say that the person with thin,
angular face is going to have a few
heartaches before she tinds the hat
that quite suits her. Flowers are
better than ever but there are many
hats trimmed with fancy feathers and
ribbon has it's own peculiar use on
every hat.
In visiting all the shops one is
struck with the large number Of black
hats trimmed with jet. Many of these
hats are wonderfully light, being con-
structed of maline, or net and the jet
forms practically the entire garniture.
Many hats with colored brims have
soft. transparent crowns of black
maline or net Another popular style
has the crown of straw and an up
haring brim of sheer, lacy material.
One such hat was shown by Mrs.
Follm M. The crown was an Alice
! Blue straw OF fine quality and q
shirred brim of black maline aaring
up smartly on the left. About the
brim was wreath of small, pink rose
buds that gave very fetching air TO
the whole Under the brim was an
underbrim of the rosebuds also. This
underbrim feature is one of the new
touches this season. 1t is more THAI
q bandeau and in some instances
really is large enuf to be called real
brim, turned down over the hair,
while the other brim rolls away from
the face.
Mrs. FolImann was also showing a
large number of purple hats and com
bin nations of tango shades with green

very striking. The shape OF thes,
hats reminds one of the headdress o
an Indian warchief.
