displays of former seasons If Of

good taste.
Large hats are increasing their
popularity. Milliners assure us that
they will soon equal the smaller
shapes in public favor. Hats suggest

many showing fiaring brims varying
in width are triumphing among those
models designed for dressy or evening
wear. Many of these are in black
with simple but brilliant garnitures in
fancy ostrich or metallic trimmings.
Fur plays conspicuous part in
shapes, both large and small.
Black and dark rich tones of brown,
green, blue. purple, and occasionally
the deepest Of reds, make ideal back
grounds for the posing Of the brilliant
trimmings of the season. Silver and
gold braids and ornaments, jets. fancy

feathers, and curious flowers, which
suggest mother-of-pearl and metallic
effects, combined with silk and velvet,
