Nature's Millinery 



Flowers are nature's millinery. 

 The gentle sex at present writing 

 wear them wherever a pin will catch 

 hold — on the shoulder, the breast, or 

 at the equator. Now, of recent years 

 the female wash out on the line has 

 not been very interesting, due to 

 Parisian standards, but the time is 

 coming soon when American women 

 will cease to imitate along lavender 

 lines, both in clothing and headgear. 

 The style will be created in New York. 

 The time will come when the Astor- 

 bilt fraternity will discard the imita- 

 tion and wear real flowers on their 

 hats. Society scrubs will follow and 

 then the intelligent mass will trot 

 along the line of least resistance. 

 So we think within a reasonable 

 time fresh flowers will decorate 

 hats — and why not? Florists' ads 

 will then run something like this: 

 "Spring hats trimmed while you 

 wait," "Send us your fall hat to be 

 trimmed — we have a large variety of 

 hardy fall trimmings," "Hats called 

 for, trimmed and delivered daily," 

 etc. Andinsteadof stores filled with 

 cloth, wax and feather flowers, there 

 will be fresh flowers assorted accord- 

 ing to season. My, what a harvest 

 for good growers that would make ! 

 And the best of all would be the fact 

 that lilies are perhaps the most ap- 

 propriate under the circumstances. 

 They keep longer, cover more space 

 in decorating, and are very profitable 

 to growers. That is, of course, if 

 growers use Horseshoe Brand bulbs. 

 Amf rica will have the greatest boom 

 in the history of the world before 

 very long — are you getting ready 

 for the occasion?
