The small hat has had Its day With the autumn big. picturesque styles resume their Interrupted dominion. It la not often that a winter fashion can be foretold with certainty so early In tbe season. In tbe a weltering days of July, when cloak models stagger under furs and wholesale buyers perspire at they finger velvet* and heavy cloths, there la el way a a gambler’s risk about lueestments. To buy the thing capridops woman will not like when she gets back to town means ruinous advertising to convince her of her mistake, with Inevitable loei at the fsr end of the

bargain.

Tbe small hat has been a blunder. A ware of laughter ha* swept over the country at sight of gentle, dignified women transformed by polo turbans into the likeness of Impertinent minxes.

Without the hairdresser’s aid. the average woman would not hare looked worse,

Fortunately the flat bread and butter plate that Frenchwomen hare slapped perpendicular ngatnat their foreheads and hare called bats have not prevailed ao largely In New Tork City as have the polo turbana. Wherever they hare been seen they have taken Brat prise for foliahneaa. SHADES FOB PARLOR 1 When refurnishing the honae one numot have too many dainty fol-de-rola about.
