FALL MILLINERY OPENINGS.
To the feminine fanny there is a charm
about the display of millinery entirely
unknown to the masculine gender and it
ism pleasurable matter that twice n year
at least en opportunity is afforded of
gratifying our mothers and our slaters,
our cousins and our aunts to say nothing,
about the queen of many a household.
Brussels takes no bank seat in preeenb•
ing a highgrade of millinery .art and as
a consequence the attendance on the mo-
oasion of Spring and Fall Openings is
large, appreciative while critical and
practical in its outcome, viz., in increased
sales. Last week was no exception to the
rale although the weather was anything
but favorable on Thursday and Friday.
Mre. Rogers has welcomed the public
many years and as on former occasions
presented a neat, well arranged, stylish
display of millinery in hats, bonnets,
trimmings, &o. Mies Liviogaton was de-
servedly complimented on her good taste
in the exhibit and more than one pretty
fade was made prettier by the donning of
the fashionable headgear "just to see bow
it looked." Out of many most commend-
able millinery designs we take occasion
to mention the following and at the same
time urge all who have not called at Mia.
Rogers to do so and see for themselves :—
Tbe leading shades and combinations are
brown, blank and white, hello, brown and
rose shades combined: One very stylish
gray hat is a Gainsborough with a large
spotted breast, blaok and white, going
either way Prem the front, finished with
soft silk of helio and green °ruslrable rib-
bon. Another one was a Pan-American
white felt hat, orown lased with blank
oheniIle and raised at one side with folds
of black velvet. A very pretty toque,
tipped on the face made and draped in
olay and pale blue felt, large steel buckle
holding in place two breasts on either
side of the crown and colors to matob
felt, was admired by many. Among the
larger hate we notioed a very becoming
fawn satin tuoked hat, trimmed with two
Duehees plumes, naught bank by a steel
ornament, flniebed with a drape of fawn
and rose panne velvet, all parrying out
the oiroular effect. In tasty millinery
goods used for the trimmings are plumes,
breasts, fancy buckles, ribbons, panne
velvets, silks, &o. Mrs. Rogers also
keeps a well assorted stook of Ladies'
ooabs and capes in latest styles with a
good supply for ohildrens' wear, She
was well pleased with last week's Open-
ing and looks forward to an inoreased
trade during the Fall and Winter.
At Misses Habkirk's store it was gait°
evident that the millinery display was
highly appreciated by bhe enthusiastic
admiration expressed by the visitors.
The large show room was neatly set out
with palma, dowers mud mirrors lending a
charm to the initial opening day by the
ladies above mentioned. Most of the
hats are nearly circular in form with
pieatotts of panne and mirrored velvets,
vari-colored felts, obeniilee or silk. One
of the most conspicuous styles shown was
a targe plush Garnaboro' shape, the brim
and facing mads of alternate frills of
panne velvet and taffetta silk and crown
of panne velvet. 4 rich bleak plumes
starting from the baok followed end
softened this award cures. Bandeau
trimmed with a large knot of panne vele
vet, fastened with a rhinestone brooch, a
long beautiful chiffon tie, trimmed with
bleak applique was caught eh the back
with a rhineatono br000h and bronght
loosely around the neok and fastened with
a bow of blank velvet ribbon. Especially
strong in workmanship and general ate.
peeranae was a design in blank and white.
The medium large shape had ' a rich
black sequin orown with whine chenille
stare, the brim decorated with upright
folds, Two large blank plumee and two
white ones spring from the bank and
sweep about the left side to the front,.
The bandeau is deoorated with rich blank
ribbon velvet. A' child's gray telt hat
simply brimmed in biaok velvet ribbon
hold m plane by email steel buckles, wae
much admired. Bonnets for older ladiee
were teetotally trimmed. Turban shapes
made in different aolora, also a red hat in
fell and velvet were pleasing. Fancy
foathere, wings; long soft breasts are
greatly used in trimming. Misses Rab -
kirk aunennoe that they maks a speaialby
of mourning millinery, They were high-
w! pleased with the Fall 0050500 and
ill be pleased to haus calls p thorn the
Lidice of Brussels and surrounding mum
