Those authorities who direct the fash- "busof the present agegcnerally speaking, ‘wise in theirgeneration. Rather than force a iastzon the people, they intuitively dis- , mover what the public need and proceed to fll the want. It is evident, to judge from ‘the season's new shades and materials, that the improvement in good taste that liasmarked the lastfew seasons is still mom accentuated with the advent of the spring of the year 1900. A careful examination of the stock of a large Millinory House has demonstrated this fact beyond a doubt to a represen- ;ative of “Tm-z GUARDIAN", who visited for this purpose the premises of Messrs J18. Paton 8c Co. the well known Milliners of Charlottetown. Through the courtesty of ‘if ‘their Head Milliner and New York buyer ‘hm- Guannlarfs lady representative as ioresaid was enabled to look through the vast accumulation of Millinery, which has Ibsen the result of the labor of the above named lady. Whenshe visited the First Big Millinery show of the season in New York.It needed buta passing glance to gather at the out ‘act one important fact, namely that Miss iIeEachern has not been idle since her xeturn. She has trimmed Hat's by the score all ready for Easter trade Miss Mc- Eachern said that it is not going to far to aay that the pastel shades introduced last iall have come to stay for some time, for modified tones these shades are the pret- tiest yet seen. Several hats of a very catchy appear- ance are especially noticeable among the i ‘large number displayed. Following are a few illustrations:- No. 1 represents one of the Lpopular Celeste toques, the crown of which is made wholly of pastel ribbon encircled with a garniture of white brillante mousseline de soie; a bunch of roses forming the effect under the brim on the left side of the hat, being ‘in a faded tone of pastel blue. _ jBotal .

Around the crown are folds of the same with three Prince of Wales plumes fastened in the centre with a cut steel buckle, giving the hat a most striking effect. Equally striking is No. 4, composed of black straw, with .41 American Beauty Roses around the brim, while the crown draped in chiffon, repre- sents panne velvet, with black mousse- tine de soie scarf with fringed ends. The scarf itself is caughtup at the right side of the back of the crown by a rine stone pin, while the fringed edges are allowed to fall behind the hat reaching almost to the neck. " No. 5 represents a handsome brown Hobb’s Hat, with velvet in the popular Khaki shade forming fancy pufl‘ bow in front. On the left is a bunch of blue taffeta silk, with Khaki straw edging. No. 6 is another and most attractive toque in black plaited straw with an im- mense bow of black silk (shirred on wire), falling in folds over side and caught with a get buckle forming the fashionable bow, high to left side, with Bird of" Paradise plumes, making a. simple .but - very picturesque, hat. . ‘Ii Canadian Patriotic Fund.

The line of children's headwear is especially beautiful and extensive this season and includes everything from the dressy hatsto the most serviceable af- fairs that can be easily laundered. A child's poke bonnet in pink, cream and white lace pigue and muslins, trimmed with lace and embroidery that looked delightfully summery and cool. In fact the little folks seemed to have been par- ticularly looked after this spring and it is seldom one sees such. an assortment in their especial line. ' While in the work-room THE GUARDIAN representative was shown some Admiral Feathers made by Miss McEachern, which were perfect in design and workmanship, and showed the care- ful study needed to perform such beauti- made of maliue edged with straw and Honoton braid, which the reader would have to see to have any conception of. Perha the most noticeable feature of the com ng season is that it will be more than ever-a ‘made’ one. Straw hats for ordinary street wear, for the country and for travelling, will be as numerous as ere- tofore, but for promenade purposes, den socials visiting, and all dress occas sion, such delicate fabrics as soft crepe do chine, ‘ ante’ mousseline-de-soie.

A striking straw hat from England is" the ‘Yeomanryj which is made after the style of the slouch hats worn by the by the troopers ofthe Imperial Yeomanry colonial corps, and which, although the new makes are not quite in the strictly regulation-shape, are decidedly of a better “appearance than the ‘rough rider‘ which has been seen so frequently of late in the streets of Charlottetown. _ It is, though, in materials and trim- mings that the eye can take most plea- sure, and for these _two subjects one description will sufiice, as materials and trimmings are really synoymous, The wide ribbons in satin and mousse- lifle-do-Soie in pastel shades of blue green, straw color,‘ purple and brown, are especially pretty asare also the all- ribbon hats made of the same.
