ABOUT CLOTHES, IN
GENERAL.
The following article, which appeared recently in the Daily News, describes the
visit of a fashion expert to some of the famous fashion houses in London:-
Millinery this year will be severely plain. Many of the newest models are Brushes, pompoms, quite untrimmed. clumps of feathers or knots of ribbon are the most popular trimmings, and these are used exceedingly sparingly...
Hatters' plush, panne and felt are the most fashionable materials, and black and brown the most fashionable colours.
In shape hats are vory smalt, with Square erowus and tiny brima. Brins are nearly all upturned slightly in front.
Three hats seen at the Maison Lewis will give an idea of what is most chic and new in the millinery world, as this house is always in the forefront of fashion.
The Arst shows how the Directoire style is slowly but surely coming to the front. le is a very smart hat suitable for älter. Of dark brown panne it has
Boon wear,
a high crown and a beautifully curved brim which. dips most becomingly at one side. Its only trimming is a high clump of nutrich fenthers placed at the back The effect of this hat is picturesque, and it shows the new millinery line to per fection.
The second model is of black hatters' plush and almost like à man's top hat in shape. The crown is square and the tiny brim has an upward curve in front: Its only trimming is a black and white brush which is placed "right in front, ut the top of the crown, and sticking, straight out. For those who can wear
this severe type of hạt nothing coukl þe smarter.
The third model is also" of black, but has around crown. The little brim has the inevitable turn up in front. On top of the crown is placed a fold of black satin ribbon lined with white velvet.
This is brought out at either side in points, This black and white arrange ment is one of the smart nalumo effects, and the extra with given by the folded ribbon, is most becoming.
Each of these three models is the last word in the new season willinery and shows exactly what will be worn.

THE MARTYR QUEEN"
(OVER 10,000 feet of Interesting Scenes)
The story commences at the period when the young Princess Marie Antoinette came from the Court of Vienna to become the wife of the Dauphin of France. It shows how her husband's in- difference induced her life to guiety and extravagance; how her domestic affections were aroused by the illness of her eldest son; her devotion and courage when the King and his family were made prisoners; and concludes with her trial and death on the scaffold.
Of the many elaborate fila reproductions of the French Revolution which have been submitted to the public within recent years, this productionis the most notable. Thegorgeousness,stupen. dousness and sheer artistry in direction baffles description. It is a picture that is incomparable from many angles of production... Its tenderness, beauty of thought and treatment. Its tre- mendous soul gripping theme and magnificent character por- trayals will stir spectators as they have never been mored before.
