MOTOR MILLINERY.
Motor headgear is always rather an interesting subject at this time of the year. Whether it is in leather, wool, or silk, wo have learned the art of making the best of it, and there is hardly a more becoming item which fits round the face, framing it closely and casting soft little shadows over the eyes.
The ridiculous little leather cape, like the Great Panjandrum, which are decorated with a carious little cut-out fringe of the same leather, and have a tiny turned-down brim attached to them, are still very popular.
But the prettiest of all are the suede motor caps which fit firmly dewn on the head, but not round the face, and which are decorated in front with a little festoon of coloured kid flowers in shades to tone with the silk. There is likewise the motor cap trimmed with pompoms, and the poke bonnet trimmed with a very narrow ribbon or leather bande and a very narrow bow in front, -or-with--no trimming at sil, except for the shot gaute or ninon veil which accompanies it.
And last of all there is the motor cap which consists of row Place in a mixing bowl and add upon row of little plissee frills of
