The AFFAIR of the EASTER HAT

f" S A "wrl N 016 B P rtnß * WW ■■ young man’s BM fancy lightly ■ flj turns to thoughts gl of love.” while * J that of his sisters ■ I and all the rest MM. of hlB feminine V- ■ ■ relations engages Itself with spring attire. The affair of the Easter hat, especially is of the first importance, and is quite likely to become mixed up with that of the young man’s fancy. Aside from this very alluring prospect, and even when a young man figures in the case not at *ll, the choice of the Easter hat is a matter of moment which It Is well worth while to consider before a purchase Is made. Any one who has once possessed an unusually becoming hatj has discovered how much her good looks are enhanced by a hatexactly suited to her own stlye in shape, in trimming and coloring. She will ever after give the selection of her millinery the proper attention; devote thought and time thereto, and live up to the old axioms of the milliners, which is. that every woman should look better In her hat than without it Manufacturers of hatshapes and forms have made such progress that there is a graceful shape for every type of face and figure; They choose models from all nations and any period or time in history, drawing inspiration from head-coverings of all the world. They modify, combine and improve, to evolve the innumerable varieties of shapes provided for each season. -v ln toe group of hats shown here for spring, are four types of which many varieties are to be found In the millinery establishments. The "Rembrandt" following closely the lines of the original model; a walking hat which U built upon the lines of a derby, but much modified; a cap-lilie shape, one of the many varieties of the Wilhelmißa or Dutch bonnet and a large “picture" hat with brim partly like the cloche, but rolling upward toward the ■ edge. These are the best Ideas of the season. Oriental turbans —as a result of the Durbar —will be a feature of this season's millinery also, and later in the spring the straw sailor will develop much strength. The sailor is out of place except for wear with plain, tailored, or simple morning gowns, or for traveling. It is not, as a rule, becoming—lts lines are too straight and the shape too rigid. Bat 4t to neat and sensible and finishes a costume of the same character with harmoney. The popularity of the sailor hinges upon this one fact The pretty hat with the soft tarn crown of velvet is one of several models called after Rembrandt In the picture, the, hat has ' a velvet crown and an upturned brim of white Ztain-straw braid trimmed with bows of velvet-covered cord. It to developed

in a great number of combinations, and is often made of hair braid or other pliable braid. The upturned rever is omitted and the hat finished with a band of heavy lace, applied to the braid, in some of the handsomest models. It is beautifully developed in fine black hemp or hair braid, with the upturn covered with cream satin, to which applique lace Is mounted, or ruffles of fine, very narrow Val lace are applied. Standing spirays of flowera called “stick-up”* effects, cockades and feather stick-ups are used for trimming. This is a charming hat and has been made of all sorts of materials. A Ftench pattern jfh ~ t&& shape is made of fine Milan braid In bronze and trimmed with a wreath of roses In several colors, sewed flat to the band about the head. This is a hat for maids- and the younger matrons. The walking bat pictured here Is made of a soft mixed braid, over a wire frame. Several colors appear in the braid, with a strong blue predominating, showing glints of red, brown, purple and nattier blue; a sort of dark mother-of-pearl coloring called “macre,” which appears in so many braids this spring. This braid is sewed, row on row, to the upper and under brim. The crown is a plateau of the braid sewed separately and afterward draped over the frame. This is one of the hats that may be successfully made at home if one starts by selecting the right frpme. It Is trimmed with a large rosette. sewed flat to the crown. The rosette is made of changeable blue and black taffeta ribbon with a large velvet-covered cabochon in black at the center.* A rosette of wide velvet ribbon, made of side plaits, arranged about a cabochon at the center, makes a handsome finish for this modeL The saiqe hat made In lighter hraKls. is trimmed with flowers in wreath, rosette or standing sprays. This shape is almost universally becoming and is to be worn well dowa over the head; it is One of the best models to choose for “all-round" wear. No hat, as a matter of fact. Is exactly suited to all occaUbns,. but this one wIU be appropriate tor all ordinary requirements and is suited to til ages of grown-up*. ‘ The derby bat in straw, follows closely the Uoes of men’s derby’s, and finds many admirers in the cities, where it to worn with the “tailormade” gown, It to trimmed with a gay cockade or brush, and worn far down'over the head. The "Wilhelmina." shown here. Is one of the great variety of shapes having the Dutch cap as their inspL ration. This one has departed so far "from the original model that one hardly recognizes it as belonging to the class. .It is mode over, a bonnetlike wire frame, of a silky, fluted braid In a dark amethyst shade. The

c' ?■' crown is lengthened and finished with an upturn, covered .with silk, about the sides and back. This silk Is a changeable amethyst and rose taffeta. The hat Is finished with a large cluster of locust blossoms in light amethyst, blue and pink colorings, which Is posed at the back. There are! many developments of. the quaint Wllhelmina bonnet, lees extreme than the smart model shown here. Lace and*flowers trim them and they are bewltchingly pretty and feminine looking. Almost any face may find the particular variety of this shape which is becoming and novel a combination to be noted when one takes up the selection of the Easter fiat. The most beautiful and becoming of all hats la the wide-brimmed picture hat It may be worn by any one on the sunny side of sixty, or on the other side, for that matter, by those whose looks and bearing belle the years. It Is made of all ' sorts of straw-braids; chip; Milan, hemp, leg- ( horn, hair Tuscan, etc., and of nets or : laces or chiffon. In fact every mil- j linery fabric is brought Into use for the picture hat This year many of the shapes are. manufactured with a black velvet j flange or border pn the under brim, or the entire under Brim is faced with black velvet The hemps, chips and Mllans are dyed in many colors, Mattier and light blue, rose and heliotrope being the favorites. Those shapes that are faced or bound with velvet provide the easiest and most satisfactory selection for the amateur milliner Such hats are trimmed with quanlties of flowers, and both silk and velvet ribbon help out to their decoration. A fine Milan, in the natural straw-color, trimmed with rosee In their natural colorings and with black silk or. velyef ribbon, makes a combination always beautt fuL same Is true of other braids. The Panama has entered the field ot the picture hat also. Bis now manufactured in shapes with wide brims, it remains to be seen whether or not this Incomparably beautiful braid will strike the right note in a flower trimmed picture hat. Among these various hats there to one for every woman. Let her not underrate the Importance of finding her own, nor forget the charm o! flowers. Now that they are so fashionable let each one do something toward the brightness #' Easter by wearing them. Since the days of .tb* flower-laden “Merry Widow,” such adorable bats have not been übvma as those which have arrived with leap year ’T* l **? l * w*** the affair of the Easter hat should not be settled to everybody** satisfaction. e.
