Horse Millinery Notes.

You ean’t judge a horse by the hat he wears. Rooster feathers falling behind the left ear are popular for afternoon wear. It is bad form to use a bonnet trimmed in led if your color is gray. Blue is far more becoming. The aristocratic horse goes bareheaded evenings, but his front hair must be carefully arranged. The well-bred horse will never allow his ears to wabble after his hat is adjusted, but will hold them firmly erect. The height of the crown worn depends entirely upon the length of the ears. Mules wear plug hats. Horses whose owners drive them when going golfing should never wear leghorn bonnets. Something in the way of a cap is besttform. Fancy straws are growing in favor, and three-ply rims are seen occasionally.
