the semi-tal hat made OF fine straw and
trimmed with handsome buckle and a band
OF ribbon. This hat is slightly suggestive of
highwayman fashions but it is even more like
the tall cashmere hats worn by Frenchmen of
the old type-on state occasions.
The crown is moderately high and slightly
tapering, while the brim is quite narrow and
fat In the Bots and at the smartest restau-
rants one sees hats of this order worn by
pretty women. and they undoubtedly be-
coming, especially when accompanied by one
of the new nose-length wells.
Yet another startling millinery novelty is
the bowler hat made Of straw or covered with
satin. In this case the original shape is care
fully preserved and l have seen black satin
bowlero which were exactly the shape OF a
mans lat. Those made of straw are rather
more ornate, but here also the domed crown
and slightly curled brm are in evidence.
These mannish hats look very attractive
when worn in conjunction with serge or linen
tailor-nades. Some of the black satin models
are untrimmed others have long quill or
heron's feather jutting out at one side. One
of these is highly ornamental bowler. In
this case the male element shows itself in
outline only, for the crown of the little hat is
covered with shaded hydrangea blossoms and
trimmed, in front, with Louis XIV bow made
of supple jet.
These cut jet bows are very popular with
some OF our best miners; they are using
them on hats and toques, and have also seen
them placed on the front of an evening cor
sage. with a length of fragile tulle twisted
through the loops
The floral bowls which are now doing duty
as headdresses are curious little models COW
cred all over with small blossoms and trimmed
with a single rose spray, or with a cleverly
tied bow OF striped ribbon. To young and
pretty faces these floral bowls are wonderfully
becoming, and the Parisiennes wear them
pressed down over the forehead with no
fringe showing.
Soft-crowned SLOUGH" hats made of dull
rose or blue faille, are very fashionable this
season. These little hats have narrow,
slightly curled brin. and are trimmed with
large, fat flowers round the crown The Pa

tres with good effect. Bands of satin or vel
vet ribbon are run through the hole where
the heart of the flower should have been, and
very charming harmonies Of color are OBJ
tanned in this way.
For instance, there is soft-crowned hat
made Of heliotrope with giant velvet pansies,
without hearts, placed fat all round the
crown. A length of aven's-wing blue velvet
ribbon was run through the pansies, the ends
being tied loosely at one side. The pansies
were shaded from deep purple to green.whte,
and the model which was the creation Of
very famous miner, was veritable poem.
A similar shape, made of rose-pink faille,
had large black velvet peoples all around tho
crown and a band of pearl gray satin ribbon
run through the centre holes.
A distinct novelty is the small, bowler shape
covered with thickly jetted tulle, with brirn
Of black silk beaver. A fascinating model OF
this order had for trimming single "Amen-
can Beauty" rose, with long stem and many
leaves. The rose stood up high at the right
side, and the hat was accompanied by short.
loose veil made of dull pink Russian net with
q narrow black silk borfs. u
