He foundthis to be so very inferior a8 to preclude the possibility lot Siteria ever being a competitor with i : ‘ this continent. A letter from the Rev. D. R. Me- Kenzie, Can: dian Methodist Missionary at Kanazawa, Japan, says: “We bave had quite @ taste of Canadian winter On this coast—very cold weather—and, what 1s very rare,a foot or more of good dry snow, with ice two inches thick. — Although many feared the opposite, they say thatthe clover in our fields is looking wellas the ice melts offit.

Rather than force ® taste on the peoodle, they intuitively dis- cover what the public need and proceed to fill the want. It is evident, to judge from the season’s new shades and materials: that the improvement in good taste that has marked the lastfew seasons is still more accentuated with the advent of the spring of the year 1900, A careful examinu.tion of the stock ofa this fact beyond a doubt to a represen- ative of “THe EXAMINER”, who visited for this purpose the premises of Messrs Jas. Paton & Co. the weii known Milliners of Charlottetown. Through the courtesty of their Head Milliner and New York buyer THE EXAMINER’Ss lady representative as foresaid was enabled to look through the vast accumulation of Millinery, which has been the result ofthe labor of the above named lady. When she visited the First Big Millinery show of the season in New York.It needed | buta passing glance to gatherat the out set one important fact, namely that Miss McEachern has not been idle since her score all ready for Easter trade Miss Mc say that the pastel shades introduced last fall have come to stay for some time, for modified tones these shades are the pret- tiest yet seen.

No. 2 is a picture hat in black Tuscan braiding and _ white brillante mousseline de soie, a pastel ornament fastening a bow of black velvet ribbon at back, the other trimming consisting ofa large Admiral Feather, hand-made, of mousseline de soie over yellow taffeta, (Just lovely), high to the left side and quarter Ostrich Tips forming a _ perfect contrast. No. 3alarge dress hat of white nea- politian straw, with hand tucked brim of white crepe de chene. Around the crown are folds of the same with three Prince of Wales plumes fastened in the centre witha cut steel buckle, giving the | hat a most striking effect. Equally striking is No. 4, composed of fancy black straw, with garniture of 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 caught up at the right side of the back of the crown bya 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 puff bow in front. On theleft is a bunch of bive taffeta silk, with Khaki straw edging. No. 6 is another and most attractive toque in black plaited straw with an im- mense bow of biack 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 picturesque hat. The line of children’s headwear is especially beautiful and extensive this season and includes everything from the dressy hats to the most serviceable af- fairs that can be easily laundered. A child’s poke bonnet in pink, cream and white lace pique and mustiins, 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 their especial line. While in the work-room THE xaminer's 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- i ful and artistic work. Also some Agrettes made of matline edged with straw and Honoton braid, which the reader wo.1i4 have to see to have any conception of, Perhaps the most noticeable feature < the coming season is that it will b» mon: than ever a ‘made’ one.

Hats it may be said advisedly, for there is no sign as yet of bonnets De coming so pupuiar as to be generally worn —a fact perhaps to be regretted when one remembers how pretty they seemed even on girls not out of their teens some ten years ago. Of hats themselves and the popular shapes afew words will suffice, The brims are, asa rule, large and in- clined to droop, and in crowns, toques and tams will be eyually worn, while high crowns tapering to the top will continns to be used te some degree. Both toques and Jarge hats will probably have an eq- ual share of popular favor, the reason ly- ing in the suitableness of the one or the other to the individual. In the all-straw hats, as may be sur- mised, the ever popular sailor, which never seems to die, is well to the iront, Some in rough straw of the khaki color (out of compliment tothe gentlemen or- dered south’)looked particularly smart, They are almost, but not quite. symmet- rical, the crown being about half an inch higher than the width of the brim. Other sailors have tam crowns, and are in both rough and fancy straws of all shades many approximating to pastels, though of course it is impossible io give the same delicacy of tint to straw that can be given to soft glace ribbon and mousseline de soie, assortment in COPY OF A PRETTY TURQUOISE TOQUE WITH ROSE TRIMMING.
