Beautiful Hats
BT JULIA BOTTOMLEY.
. We cannot help acknowledging that
much of tho millinery we see is ill
chosen on the part of those who wear
it. The desire for something new
(which means something novel) and
the disposition to follow the lead of
some one else rather than their own
good judgment leads women into mis
takes in millinery.
There is a very simple rule to follow
when one is trying on with a view to
purchasing one of the more or less
artistic models of the milliner's art It
la this: The wearer should look bet
ter with the hat on than without it.
After finding a hat which, from all
points of view. Is becoming, the ques
tion of Bhape, at least. Is decided
rpon. Details of materials and con
jltruction can then be settled.
It Is usually more satisfactory to
both milliner and purchaser when a
satisfactory hat can be found among
those on display In the shop, to buy
outright rather than to order a hat
made. Nevertheless a good and clever
milliner is sometimes able to Improve
upon a model and, very often, can
make concessions In price by copying
a pattern more or less closely for the
customer. Every woman should econ
omize last In her bat It is the finish
Ing touch in her costume, a sort of
keynote In the harmony of her cloth
ing. Excellent millinery, with excel
lent shoes and gloves will give an im
pression of elegance and redeem a
plain gown from being commonplace.
The three hats illustrated here
may be said to picture some perma- i
nent values )n millinery, for there are
some (comparatively) permanent val
ues In shapes and materials. The silk
hat In Fig. 1 is a much modified Cor
day shape, built upon the lines of the
frilled cap which was worn by women
In the time of Charlotte Corday and
Is now identified by her name. This
shape is comfortable and becoming
and is vanea in me ma&iug up iu
suit the age and style of the wearer.
Is not excelled In beauty of out
c ijne. One rarely sees an ugly Corday
""ntodel; even the stupidest of makers
can hardly undo altogether its good
points.
The hat shown Is made of silk
faced with velvet and trimmed with
silk rosettes having velvet and bead
centers. A silk and velvet rose, with
foliage and loops of velvet ribbon.
NEW DECORATION FOR DENS
Wood Splints of Hardwood Set In
Framework of Polished Wood
Is Popular.
A Hew finish for the walls of dens,
men's bedrooms and other Informal
rooms, has lately made its appearance.
It consists primarily of an Interweav
ing of wood splints of hardwood set
in a framework of polished wood, the
- finish of the splints being rather dull.
It is applied to walls, either Tor
their entire height or as a lower two
thirds below a landscape frieze or a
tapestry or leather paper. It can bo
,.a in pat ntnln desired, although It
is shown in the shops only in a warm
brown and green.
A wall treated with it presents a
. MMMA1a rT nf a 1-
-series OI narrow ipuoi
ternatlng wide and narrow ones. It
Is an effective background for highly
colored pottery. 'for hunting- scenes In
color and for copper and brass. The
came weaving of splints Is applied to
a great variety of furniture, an agree
able change from the familiar reed
and willow.
Veils Important This Year.
folio vara nnver before so pretty
as they are this year.. Lace veils for
draping are, seen in both black and
white, and net face Tells are extreme
ly fine and cobwebby but el ; large
mesh. -
The new veils are much wider than
those to which we have been accus
tomed, and are much more conveni
ent for tying over the large hats of
the season.
New Mesh Veils.
Clack Uerre -lace has taken the
place of -white lace, for the winter
veils. They promise to be even more
nnbecomlag than' those we wore in
the summer. The most artistic mesh
that a woman can wear is the wlde
cpen round one that Is made of
tonrse, silky thread. These are Quite
cew and are rather expensive, but
f ey outlast veils of fine net -
finish the model. Even France has
nut given us a better design In head
wear than she gave us in this.
In Fig. 2 the broad-brimmed pictur
esque hat shaped like a Leghorn or
Neapolitan flat is made of felt This
Is a shape perennially fashionable and
is made of all materials. The good,
full ostrich plumes with which It Is
trimmed are also always in fashion. A
concession to the season's fancy Is to
be noted in the strands of beads,
which look like jet but are really a
composition, very light In weight and
very handsome. The purchaser of
such a hat owns millinery permanent
ly fashionable and good, that Is, until
it wears out. Italy sends us, and has
sent for centuries and will continue
to send, fine hats of straw In this
shape. Innumerable good copies of It
are domestic manufactures. Spain
launched the turban shown in Fig. 3
It Is a jaunty, round hat. having much
dash and style. Its trimming amounts
to a decoration applied to the shape,
and a standing cockade or something
to take its place at the side. This lit
tle hat as pictured is made of heavy
corded silk, trimmed with beads and
imitation Jot cabochons. It is finished
with a fancy feather aigrette and
knotted scarf of velvet
Thus three nations have contributed
models that one may choose from sea
son to season, If they are found more
becoming than any others, secure in
the knowledge that they are hats that
are beautiful too beautiful to be dis
cardedand are always fashionable
HANDSOME BLACK WAIST.

front and slashed open at .the sides
over an underblouse of white tulle, the
edges united by straps of cord and
little buttons. The waist is trimmed
In an odd way with bands of embroi

white tucked tulle and lace. :
The sleeves are somewhat in rag
Ian style, shirred their entire length,
and finished with cuffs of tucked
white tulle and lace like the plastron.
The pretty arrangement of the hair
Is the very latest style in Paris.
Boas and Beads.

wake the feather boa, In which Paris
is at present reveling. In that city
the boa is worn so long that it falls
almost to the hem of the skirt, and Li
very fat and round In all its length.

PROFITABLE ONION IN FALL
Of Many Kinds Yellow Potato or Mul
tiplier Has Proven to Ce Best
for Late Planting.
After trying many kinds, I have
found that the most profitable onion
to plant In the rail is the yellow po

and never make seed, and the small
bulbs can be pulled off for bunching
in the Bprlng and ay that are left
will mature Into good onions that can
be sold in a dry state, so that there
is no loss In running to seed, says
a writer In the Business Farmer.
Onions, especially fall planted on
ions, need a light and well-drained soil.
It is a matter of course that the soil
should be well prepared and made
rich. There is one advantage In the
onion crop In that It can be grown to
ada vantage year after year on the
same land If the soil Is properly fer
tilized. Clean cultivation and the use
of chemical fertilizers only will grad
ually clean the lands of weeds, for
weeds must be kept out at all hazards.
"Clean as an onion bed has come to be
a maxim for clean cultivation. If
you want a rapid and early growth
you must be liberal, with the fertiliza
tion. The manure needs o' the onion
crop are mainly nitrogen A potash.
To make a ton of fertilizer. J? onions,
I would mix 900 pounds of acfO phos
phate, 600 pounds of cottonseed meal
or fish scraps, 100 pounds of nitrate of
soda and 400 pounds muriate of pot
ash. Of this I would use 1,000 pounds
par acre well mixed In the soli, half
in the furrows under the sets and
half alongside the rows. The dis
tance between the rows will depend
on the extent of the crop and whether
horse culture or hand culture are used.
In either case lay off furrows and ap
ply the fertilizer. Throw a furrow
over this one from each side to make
a bed or list Flatten this somewhat
and open a shallow furrow in the bed
for-plantlng the sets. The sets should
be covered rather deeply, as a win
ter protection, the earth being pulled
away in the spring. . Setting them
deeply in the flattened bed will bring
the bulbs on the surface in the spring,
or just where uiey will develop best
An illustration is given of an imple
ment that will prove of much value to
the farmer In smoothing the grrlund
before seeding.

FARM NOTES.
When packing apples do as you
would be done by.
A weed killed new means 100 fewer
weeds next spring.
Plow up the old strawberry bed if
It Is falling and start a new one.
Store early dug potatoes in a cool,
'dry place. Do not put In the cellar.
Allowing a potato to take a second
growth spoils it for eating pur
poses. Clip grap3 off with a pair of shears.
Don't allow anyone to tear off the
bunches.
Mulched potatoes will not grow as
badly as the unmulched If wet weath
er comes on.
Plowing the orchard late encourages
late growth of wood which Is apt to
winterkill
v Letting weeds go to seed . means
that you are laying up trouble for next
year.
Great Difference in Rice.
Some varieties of rice ripen In two
months after planting, while others
require up to sU months of cultiva
