Tha face that cannot find a hat to ault It must be plain Indeed, for there Is no end to the wonderful variety In millinery. Hats big and small, tall hats, and low hats are all in order. The high crown. mm with or without a brim, la one of , the picturesque things of the hour, and with the) head else a trifle smaller than it has been for aome lima back there Is a definite improvement. As a large choice la given a woman these days In tha choice of her millinery, each woman should study her own face, or let her modiste do H for her, and choose tha style which la naturally hers. To begin wKh, burettes are not worn they are com pletely out The hat must sit well down on the head. The Bergulna, Cabriolets, Syrian, Charlotte Corday, Breton, or Pierrot shapes do not suit big,, fat, middle ged, or elderly faoea For tha short woman there are the high crowned hats with trimmings en aigrette; for tall ones, tha apalln In Italian atraw, with flat trimmings. The stout should shun hats with narrow brims, which em- . phaahM tbe great alse of bust and hips. Those with abort necks will find the upward turn at the back of tha Louis XVL or Napoleon gives the desired line. Tor all except women with large faces the Gains borough shapes or tha ahapes turned up all around are becoming. A woman with a good profile always looks well In a Galnaborougn or Rembrandt, but only women with Irregular feat a res of the tip tilted variety should wear the 1 new babyfled models that are being featured ht the lingerie hats. A dark hat lined with a lighter tint la becoming to a brooette, while a blonde will find the fairness of her skin and hair set off to advantage by the hat with a dark lining. Tha most popular colors are black, .white, oerlse, and lurry blua Tha greateat momentary success Ilea with the big hats of extremely wide brims. The Immense nanllle, with a border of roses, ever retains Its eight-, aenth. century charm, and each year sees Its reourrene In sotns shape or fashion. The pure white flowers made of gause, lace, satin, or velvet, with pure white foliage, (Which were used so freely a few seasons ago, are in great vogue again. Tor tha lingerie hats the ones made of batiste or lawn are especially effective. White hats with the dead white trimmings are espe cially effective with any of tha brilliant costumes worn this summer. An odd hat worn by a pretty girl that I net recently was built with a wide brim that rolled up slightly all around and had a dome crown. At one side of the front there towered a fleur de Us stalk, with tha blossoms at the' top and the long, slender foliage below. There la nothing that one might call demure about the floral trimmings of hats this season. Hollyhocks . as well as sunflowers are ahown on many of the Ira- . ported hats. . Tha hollyhocks are placed on an upright stalk at the side of a high crowned hat. In the same way that wa are now using the straight wired plumes. . On' tha axtramely large ahapes, wtiioh are everywhere featured, roses la aigrette arrangement, violets la double garlands, forget-me-nots with tiny pink rosea. white lilacs with pink roses, or black velvet mar-, gnarites are among the favorite trimmings. i Many soke shenea are noted, but th en - - w m v m wm much nor generous socle than those that war de signed tor early summer wear. Ia addition, the aides spread outward and do not. as a rula. touch the ears a precajitloa wtiich-es adv4able for warm days. ffiDK) - C90cmc?4fl A' iN V ; , ; .VT'..;' . St, 5 1 s-1 r .i r r ;.

On of the strongeat style notes In millinery la tha uae of hiiKe bows of ribbon, which are plaoed horizon tally ax-roiia the back, on top of the crown or obliquely at the left aide. One of the newest features In trimmings Is a swallow with bright green or red feathers, with wings and tall of black velvet. The majority of tha models shown, however, are de lightfully airy In appearance. One of the moat effective) lace trimmings that bear the stamp of novelty Is tha large pompon made of straight edged lace, about four or Ave Inches wide. The lace la gathered so full aa to form a thick ruche that Is arranged into a full roaette. beneath which are several Irregular, overlapping rows of the cloaely shirred lace, forming In all a tall pompon. A trimming of this kind Is attached to tha side of tha high crowns, and frequently spreads over the top. When used on low crowns the pompon Is not elongated, but takes the form of a full, ball-like ruche. Another arrangement of the lace la an exact reproduction of on of the newest fancies In taffeta, and ribbon. Several loo pa appear to Jut out of the aide of the crown, tha Joining of the loops and the crown being concealed by a coll cr a nest of lace, taffeta, or whatever fabric tha loops themselves are made of. Tha moat recant Paris models of coiffure arrange ment develop little that la new, - but show a tendency in the direction of following the Amerloan style of ex hibiting the contour of the head, with the ears covered . and the maaa of the hair arranged low at the back of : the head. Many of the arrangements are In the Greek ' formation, nearly all banded with either double or ' single band arrangement of fabrics, and some are shown . with suspended curls. ' At present green Is playing a conspicuous part In tha halrdreaalng adopted In the French capital, bandeaux and other dressings of that color being frequently used. A' large percentage of the ornaments worn have either green settings or are made up In green materials.- In many Instances the green Is combined with gold. " .
