I C. & G. S. Mower Co. Held Theirs ? Yesterday?The Prevailing Colors and Styles Shown. \ esterday was a day of great in, terest at (he C. & CJ. S. Mower Co. I] ; store. Everything including the <1 weather nintle the millinery depart- t men I ot this fashionable and nicely ( I arranged store a scene of beauty and e the ladies that thronged the depart- ? merit while still arrayed in their light, 1 airy, and becoming summer dresses were just as enthusiastic over the g fall and winter styles as if the p "snow king" bad already arrived, ti and indeed judging from some of the t exquisite, snowy "willow" plumes that adorned I wo or three of the most |i beautilul hats which were on displav 1 one would think they had been u brought from I he home of t he eter- 't nal feathery whiteness. p I lie prevailing colors Cor the com- I ing season seemed |o be green, purple I and navy blue, nr rather a Persian effect combining all three of these p colors, touched up and brightened by c the loveliest gilt tinsel, gilt buckles, I and gill bands. In fact everything li nearly has a touch of gold about it t this season, and the real colors of ti the autumn leaves seem to be rivaled ( by these new and fashionable crca- v lions, which the visitor finds at (\ & v Ti. S. Mower Co's. millinery store. i> One of (lie first bats shown is a t large flat iron hat, navy blue, ex- n quisitely trimmed in the most bean- f liful Persian ribbon, and a bird of ti Paradise giving tli?? crowning clYed. a Another, which is probably one of a the handsomest hats ever brought to n Newberry, is ? large white satin hat c faced with black velvet, and the b white willow plumes which adorn this exceedingly stylish bat are a dream of loveliness, so white and fluffy and I1 beautiful. T! e effect is very strik- < ing and I his bat received no end of e< admiration. One of the prettiest q features of this hat is the gilt gause d band with green leaves on it. u Another and we might say a com- tl pan ion hat to this one, is a white s.-Hin hal faced with velvet and trim- s med with ermine and ostrich plumes. H I liese hats are loo dainty to be ac- w eurately described. |j I hen there are two other verv it handsome hats that might also be classed together as they too seem to rival each other in the extreme sty- a li-di etlcct that has been obtained. \v One is green velvM with a handsome tl Persian liand and the top covered ll by a magnificent Pocahontas feather, f II i- somewhat of the Oainsboro ef- 11 feet and is flared on the side. While li tin* other which would become some tl >lyles ( !' beauty more i- a flat iron II -liape. The chief color being peacock blue. (>n one side is a verv v strikingly handsome gilt buckle and fi il also has one of the new Pocahon- c; las plumes, and there is a lovely d tinsel band around this hat. Another hat thai needs mention v on account of the sweet simplicity |, yet elegance which it presents is a |t large Copenhagen blue simply trim- M tiled iu large shaded roses which w change I rum an old rose to a pink. sj This is ;i beautiful lial and very be- t] coming lo most of the ladies who v were a| the opening. si I hen liiere was a large black ha! I; that everyone thought was handsome o as well as beautiful, 'file most ex- o quisite thing about this hat are the twi large black willow plumes. It is p raised to the left side. <; < 1 course there are all kinds of -Itapes in street bats and the stylish dre>s hats. There is the greatest p alutndance ol flowers, beautiful ribbons, pins, buckles and many other n little articles that g'o far towards j, making a hat the delight of a wo- ^ man's heart. Sl flic opening was a decided success. I and the most courteous treatment is I; shown everyone by the accomplished t milliner. Miss Pursley, 'and her very s pleasant assistants.
