MRS. CLEVELAND’S FALL HAT.
Symphony in Flowers and Colors Reminds One of Late Leaves. An important order was to be executed the other day by a Washington milliner, for Mrs. Cleveland had written down for an autumn fiat. “Your own selection,” she ordered the milliner. The hat when it reached Gray Gables was of pale green straw with brown dots scattered over it These were small knots of grass. Ona
side of the hat was trimmed with stiff taffeta bows in brown and green—loops of each. The other side of the hat was a mass of snowballs nestling in green leaves. The back was a standmg mass of lace, and the pointed top carried out the brown and green motif in an abundance of these leaves. With Mrs. Cleveland's order was one for small russet shade hats for the little girls. There are trimmed with forget-me-nots and green ribbon.
