grounds, the ehapeau known in vulgar parlance as the "stove pipe," or "plug" I has steadily retained its supremacy us thc dress hat. Without it the man, no matter how fine or fashionably cut his his garments may be, can not be admit ted to be in full dress. It is indispensable to the completeness of c.cry gentle-

man's co.-tuine. For years these glossy production of the hatter's skill have been worn among us, yet until lately the manufacture has been confined lo larger' cities.

Then the iron-| ing and rubbing process is repeated ca-! ressingly by the workman, who evidently can not bear to part with the improving beauty, lint separation is the common fate, and he is at last forced to turn the hat over to other hands to have the band put on thc crown and the binding on the brim. He recoveres it shortly, however, and molds thc brim into the graceful curve of thc present mode. Then after ironing, the hat is finished, and after being held out a few moments |br critical admiration, it is placed away in the case or sent home to the one who ordered its creation. This is the process of making new hats, but there is another branch of the trade which is extensively worked at this factory. ThiSt is remodeling and redressing of old silkre- hats. Persons of an economical turn of mind can have their half worn -ilk hats

made over into the current fashion and to look almostas gol.l as new at about half the price latter. The workmen takes the shabby tile, strips nil' (he silk, which is cleansed and re-Colored. The frame is reshaped., and the ru'inainder of
