TOQUE THAT IS WATERPROOF

Serviceable But None the Lees Pretty Head Covering—Many Shapes , Are to Be Offered.

Hats and toques are in every possible shape, so there is a choice for all. One of the newest 1b the patent leather waterproof variety, much worn by women at the races, and. very suitable for sports. The brim is forced well down upon the hair, and is lined with colored silk, a band of the same surrounding the high crown. The silk is stitched in close lines and is sometimes blue, at others red or the new shade called tango. A very useful hat for .country wear is in tan colored leather, the crown and brim in sections closely stitched together, the wired brim lined with silk, usually black, sometimes green or blue. The new woolen velvet hat, in black or qplors, has an adaptable 'brim, curved to any shape, and usually trimmed with a silk or satin band around the crown. The colors in which this hat is made are purple, aaxe, tan and navy blue. For ceremonious occasions there Is ajnong many others the round black hat in the same material as men’s silk hats, very simply trimmed with striped or fancy ribbon rolled round the crown, and rising in an aigret at one side. Brown velvet composes many smart hats, with trimming of handsomely patterned ribbon that seems borrowed from savage races, especially when It sits on the edge of the brim in meaningless fashion.
