This Is far removed from the fash.
ion Of covering plain hats with fanci-
full vcils to give limo and color. It's
o good scheme. although the nilliLers
show no disposition to decrease the
price OF a hat by reason Of It. The

used for this yelling are high. The

about the cost OF hand labor being
the reason for the prices in shops that
she had forgotten the same doctrine

chimes that weave every particle Of

exceedingly careful work and It can
not be bought for penny.
One Of the tricks Of the Ynillire-s IL
to cover gold brocade or metal cloth
with black tulle and by It to convert
a brilliant evening hat into one suit
able for street in the afternoon. This
fact may be pleasing to women who
must economize. The black tullc dra-
perry is placed fatty on the brim Of
the brocade hat or over the entire tur-
ban OF silver, but It is not permitted
to drop low on the face. It catches
one just below the eyes In the fashion
OF last winter. This masque idea In as
old as coquetry. and was . part and
parcel OF allurinE days in Franco ana

dropped by the Parisienne. but 1t n

States.
Another bit Of coquetry advanced by
France. which appears better than It
sounds. is the placing Of short or long
curls in the side Of the hat. This

suit the period from which the NIL
liner has chosen the hat. In France,
as in America. the price Of waving,
washing and treating the hair has
gone UP so fast that women may have
to 60 back to false hair to help out
the coiffure, and shampoo the hair at
home as in other and more primitive
days.
There is little to choose from in hat
fabrics this season. Orig inality must
be gained by the shape or the eccen-
trio, or artistic use Of Hues. flowers
and wings. Paradise and all Its imi-
tations still rule In the highest places.
Ribbon Is seldom used. 1t Is kept for
sashes. Satin as a substitute for vel
vet has disappeared. much to the dis
appointment Of many women who
have always found velvet q discom-
fort to the head. It is menace to
a fresh Marcel wave.
It is strange how persistently vel
vet holds the center Of the millinery
stage. Women begin to wear 1t in
August and do not relinquish 1t until
the leaves are green. In its common

does not deter women from buying
it and often doing so as an economy.

BUSINESS.
If one intends to indulge In this
false economy, then the next neces-
sary step is to buy an expensive piece
of yelling to cover the poor velvet.
Aren't half our economies doctored
into extravagancies in this manner?
