S,eciaI Correspondence of The Star.
NEW YORK, October Swell, after
all the fuss and pother the milliners
have been kind to the women with long
fac The high-crowned hat is not
absolute. There are others.
There is one leading style. as is usu-
ally the way in America at the first
of the season when a large majority
choose their costumes without wait
ing for the settled cold weather. But
as soon as the first excitement has
died down and this leading fashion has
been established by the vote of the
majority, then every one begins to look
around and see what other fashions
present themselves.
When the new millinery made it's APP
pearance in the first of September the
position and the Reboux sailor with
the nose veil were acclaimed as the
leaders, and at once the nlilliners put
out several dozens of them. They
were the first shapes to launch the
high crowns, to bring them to the pub

hats had changed their shape. and TO
warn those who were considering the
practice of economy that such effort
was futile.

early as May in order to stimulate in
dustry. and each house tried out some
pet scheme of it's own. America re-
received the position and the sailor al
once, and the struggle was on in the
minds of those who could not possibly
fancy themselves in hats that elongated
their faces and made them look more
like their Puritan fathers than ever.
And you might like to claim descent
from these gentlemen, but you don't
want to claim resemblance,
Then, after the first furry was over

unkindly feeling on the part of the
miiliners and no insistence upon the
one style of crown; they were too
canny as commerciaiists to be ar

The Hat of the Priest.

women with long, broad faces is taken
direct from that worn by the French
and Belgium priests. 1t is called the

looks too girlish over mature face,
it is eliminated without marring the
effect of the shape.
The biretta of the old French student
made in black velvet is another fash
ionable shape that can be softened
in its upward flare by dexterous touch
ing, and in its f1attened and sobered
state it goes unusually well above the
large face. The postillion is not for the
woman who is neither young nor
slender, neither is Rebaux's sailor; but
both are quite enchanting on the right
face. one that has piquancy and regu-
lar, small features.
There are turbans which are massed

These are also suitabl to the mature
