New York, July 3.-The latest hat
is the breast of bird. 1t is close.
fitting little cap of white feathers with
one long spirally white feather stuck
up in front to wave in the breezes
1t is supposed to be some highfallutin
sort Of a white pheasant or other, but
looks suspiciously like a common barn
yard fowl. 1t is enough to elicit the
,luery from Mr.. Johnsing: "Mr. Bones,
when is a Leghorn hat not Leghorn
hatf When it's a Leghorn her"
Anyway, it is delightfully."- appropri.
ate, worn alike by both old hens or
sprightly chickens. Though it is of
feathers, it is worn down on the head
at cOcky angle. To be strictly up to
date, you've simply got to get one by
fair means or fowl, for it's truly a
bird of bonnet.
Another new hat effect in the wider
hrim models is the tli-oyrr lace bi i'm
fith crowns of either straw ur clvct.
These are charming topO,FS 70 ,he
'ilmy lingerie trock. One lovely com.
,ination is of sheerest white shadow
ace for the wide brim and crown OF
lcrp gold colorcd straw garlandcd with
,lull white satin folinge
Another with a black lace brim has
soft full crown or Dluci; velvet with
a delicate pink rose, blue fringed gen.
tian, a gardenia, yellow daisy and a
brown pansy set about the crown at
artistic intervals.
A winsome hat of pink chiffon
wreathed in white clover is ideal, wrea-
thing a winsOme face wreathed in
smiles. That's the unspeakable ira
gedy of most hats; they are always
found on the wrong faces. There real
ly are hats to fit every race; but where
u lace brimmed hat will turn an in
genue face into study of Greuze, and
one of the new featherd chapeaux make
piquant young person resemble q
leader of the bird ballet, one 3 hatchet-
faced great aunt nor a portly judge
weighing three hundred pounds on the
hoof can affect either one of these
models with anything the least bit like
impunity.
Those cunning little half mast wells
that reach with seant courtesy to the
tip of your nose are decidedly in IA
vor, especially when worn with the
small sailor shapes and feather bonnets.
In black with a small lozenge shape
single thread mesh and a solitary row
of black dots as finish they are as
smart indeed as the maiden who wears
them, and tehreby dots her nose rather
than her eyes in these days of high
cost of oeeulists.
Shaded chiffon wells for motoring
are very lovely and jumping from head
to feet the same color scheme is being
sported IN hosiery.
For instance, starting with a flesh
tint at the taper ankle, the newest silk
stockings shade through tones of pink
till they blush deep rose in the region
of the dimpled knee, the deepest tone
being the highest tone, as it were The
yellow shades lend themselves very ap.
prOpriately to this idea, as they all
start at the foot with corn shade.
These tones are so very popular in
all parts OF your appeared these days
that you aren t considered at all up to
date if you haven't streak of yellow
somewhere about you.
Stockings with birds. beasties and
members of the reptile family disport.
ing themselves eOyly up the instep are
the very latest features for our feet.
They are mostly embroidered, spangled
or beaded designs but the very last
touch is to have ones geological hosiery
handpainted.
The craze for handpainted apparel
doesn t rest merely at the feet, either.
for hats, parasols, gloves and even
whole froeks are artistically handpaint
ed as well as faces.
