For Hot Weather

When the sun strengthens and blazes in the sky and beat becomes a factor to reckon with In dress, and everything else, millinery must be cool looking or it will fail to be attractive. All white or combinations of white with black, give us the crispest and best effects for the dog days. But white set off with a bit of scarlet, deft blue or leaf green is smart and effective also, and may be chosen instead of white with black. Black for day time wear is not cool looking except when made of the thinest fabrics, like lace and net. The big black hats of hair braid or pyroryllne are lacy in texture and the admiration and the darling of the summer girl's heart This season they belong to the “mystery” class; those hats that come down over the head, veiling the eyes and showing the profile from one side only. The corday hats of net hnd lace

or those made on the “helmet” shapes have captivated as many as the big 1 drooping picture hats. A lovely hat for the hot weather is shown here made of dead white chip, overlaid with black Chantilly lace. A grouping of tour immense roses in tulle and silk is mounted across the front, they are almost colorless with a blush of pale pink at the edges of some of the petals. The effect is of millinery as light as air. A pretty sailor for practical wear is trimmed with white wings and a coronet of plaited ribbon across the front. The shape Is a Milan in the natural pale yellow of the finished hat. Ajil the trimming is pure white and A crisp ’satin faced ribbon is chosen for making the plaiting; A floating washable lace veil Is the thing generally worn with these sailors.
