NO. SHAFTS TO MATCH
COSTUMES.

Womans hair has always been re-
ferred to as her GROWING glory. but
in fashion lore We discover a close
rival for this honor. namely the
chapeau To the French women this
means more than hat; 1t is the
frame which is most CAREFUL! select
ed TO complete perfect plcture-th"
crOwning glory OF a beautiful gown.
Like a frame. it should blend in with
the costume, yet never call attention
TO itself TO the exclusion OF the dress
il is intended TO beautify.
Just at this time fashion has con,
sented to a most unusual as well as
economical departure in wash hats 70
match costume These hats. OF tub
fabrics, can be had in very smart
styles, and some Of them are very
beautiful The majority Of these hats
are made in solid cOlOrs, and offer
very little contrast to costumes. They
are work for an artist, however these
simple appearing wash hats; for If
they were not given all the attention
of a silk or chiffon creation, they
would be impossible. II one wishes
TO order a hat for a figured wash
dress it is best to purchase a plain
material to match the predOminating
color in the pattern. Then, again, a
very effective scheme is to have a
white wolfe or Organdle hat made,
with some small fancy or trimming Of
the material made into an ornament.
In this way a woman can be the
proud possessor of a hat for every
costume, with small expense, as ma
tertals left over from dresses will
probably prove sufficient for making
a hat Milliners as a rule do not
charge more than $3.50 to $500 for
making these hats. which appear quite
chic, and still are economical.
White hats are always very much
in vogue for summer wear, and white
dresses of course are the thing to wear
with them A very good departure
from the rigid white, however, is a
hat with a black hemp facing, and
solid white organdie crown; this hat
should be Of especial appeal to women
with high coloring.
When the subject Of silk and chif-
fon hats comes to us for considera-
ton the answer is not difficult to find.
Generally a hat and gown Of the same
material and color is considered good
taste. But, in the millinery business,
figured silks are classed much the
same as figured cotton goods. 1t is
much more satisfactory to wear a
solid color hat with a figured gown.
This does not apply to the silk or
cotton sports goods. They are in a
class by themselves, and hats to
match skirts no matter how eccentric
the pattern are considered quite
''voguey."
A dark dress will appear less SOM
bre when worn with a white hat, with
perhaps just a suggestion Of trimming
the shade Of the dress. Wearing shoes
to match the hat is also quite fad,
indeed white shoes should never be
worn with dark dress unless the hat
or some other part of the costume is
also white. II costume is entirely
dark and white shoes are worn, par
ucular attention is called to the feet
of the wearer, and this is what most
women would choose not to do. This
fault can be remedied, however, by
using white for collars or yestees.
A gown OF navy blue foulard was
given great distinction by the hat in
the upper left hand corner. The crown
Of navy blue straw has a cluster OF
tiny spring fruits, and, as If to dare
the food censor a whisp of wheat is
tucked between them. The transpar
ent brim Of nav georgette hints dark
