PARIS FASHION NOTES.

[FROM OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT,

ISABEL BANKSAT.]

PARIS, October 2nd. The Autumn and Winter hate have made their appearance for the benefit of the ordreas buyers who flock to Paris at the beginning of every senson to see and bur what the big couturierà and modistes bave to offer. Up till now the new, models have not got much farther than the salons of these fashion potentatea, seeing that tha majority of the elegantes of Paris are still una- ning themselves in their country chuteaur or at Biarritz but a-review of the principal collections" shows what is in store for them on their return to participate in the Autumn and Winter festivities, and shows, also, what one may expect to see in the streets, restaurants, theatres and salons of Paris during the next few months.

Felt will be the grand chic. Every accond hat you see is made of this "material. As well as the felts we bare always known, there is a new variety of beaver- felt that is as soft and pliable, as velvet and altogether delightful to look at. This is equally attractive, whether rolled up into a little toque affair and squashed' down on to the head or ous on wide. undaliting lines.

are worn

Next to Selt, there comes plask. This material is used more especially for the fashioning of the bord (tam o'shanter) form of head-gear, that is doing its best. to return to popular favour. The model is taken from the soft, valvet caps, with the coloured ribbon tied round, the head- band to denote which pa ienlar branch of uri or learning the wearer belongs to, that

by stalents, in the Tatin Quarter, with the difference always that this simple model is exag gerated and transformed out of all re- cognition. On account of the originality of its form, a bord is rarely seen in any other colour but black, The traming also, is of the simplest, and consists for the most part of a twist of ribbon, with perhaps a bow or a rosette at the side.

As a Parisienne without a velvet bat would be as great an incongruity as a bullock without horns, modistes Lave supplied this necessity in the quantity. Vlivet hats are seen in big, small and middling, sized shapes. A few weeks ago, I wrote of the leather coats and jackets I was at Deauville, these still exist, accompanied Bow by the smartest of leather hats to match. Black is just a little too socibre and is apt to create a funeral effect; by maroon, cream and raver bluc leather made up into a cont and hat is about the smartest thing you will see anywhere. If a trimming is added, it takes the form of bands of a design worked in narrow woollen thread that is not pulled through tightly on the under- heath side, so that a "fluffy" effect is created which gives the pattern. the appearance of having been powdered." Hats made of leather, being considered chapeaux de pluie, are more of the practical order; they are small and tight-fitting and never hare any other but the form of trimming I have just described.

Satin is very popular for hats this season; in fact, this material has been obliged of late to take a back place and make way for the host of new and fancy materials that the busy tertile manufacturers from Lyons have been crowding on to the market. Still, if Madame desires a bat in a material lighter than felt, plush velvet or leather, this can be provided for her in satin eloky or araballor-two materials that are as light as satin and yet create un effect of richness and variety which satin is unable to do. Little tubby sort of bats that are pulled down on to the bead well over the ears, with a rolled-up brim flat- lebed out on the right side and the jutting out effect thus produced, further enhanced by the addition of a bunch of cock's feathers, a spray of curving imitation ospreye, or a collection of loops of stiff ribbon, is the form mostly adopted for cloky and similar hata. If a big shape is chosen, it is decorated therely with a je ornament, a cockade or a single rich-looking feather.

As a matter of fact, Dame Fashion is very eclectic in ber tastes this season, and is allowing her subjects to decorate their hats" with almost any material and any fantasy they like. As is only natural, seeing the tremendous rogue for far-trimming on dresses and coats, bands of far are also seen on the majority of hats. Sealskin, aquirrel and erpine lead the way, there is also ut certain amount of beaver, but this must bea used carefully or it is apt to create a 'heavy effect. Monkey fa hardly seen at all.

Besides fur, ribbon" is used" extensively. It is seen in the form of huge stiff bows, in rachings, and in trailing enda... As well us those to mediume, there is lace, embroidery and feathers from every bird almost that ever flew.

In the matter of colours, Dame Fashion is more exacting, and demands either brown, rust colour, or any of the blond" shades from kige to pain brule. She will tolerate black, but in a far lesser quantity' thin she has done for the past few years. There must always appear to be a fur greater pro ponderance of black worn in France because of the longer mourning period observed, but designers, bave. evidently made up their minde to combat the babit Parisiennes have grown into of wearing black whether they are in mourning or not. During the Sum mer, modistes launched millions of mauve and gay yellow hats on the market; they

There are some things that we must not decide by a majority vote. One of these things is whether or not you, and we, and John Drinkwater shall, or shall not, drink water.

Being free people, we do not need other opinions on this. Our own opinion is all that matters.

No Haig & Haig Whisky is being exported in Decanter bottles.

We find it necessary to make this statement because our House was, at one time,

a user of this bottle. After long experience we find that it is not a good bottle, It is easily broken, and the sizes frequently vary, to the detriment of the buyers We discontinued its use in the interests of our customers. We sell the same high-class quality Whisky in this bottle. We have one quality only.
