They will show a large and better selection I of the seasons newest creations than tever before. Miss Serena Riser, the .popular milliner for this up to date - store, as usual spent the month of - Agust in New York ('itv studying a the new styles in the largest estab t ishments in that centre of fashion. Sand i<~ this season better than ever .prepared to serve the pulie with Sthe newest and most stylish headwear that has ever been shown in New MILLINERY OPENING. C. & G. S. Mower Co. Held Theirs 1 Yesterday-The Prevailing Col ors and Styles Shown. Yesterday was a day of great in -terest at. the C. & G. S. Mower Co. I store. Everyt.hing ineluding the weather made the millinery depart- t nient of this fashionable and nicely ( arranged store a scene of beauty and f the ladies that thronged the depart ment while still arrayed in their light, I airy, and becoming summer dresses were just as enthusiastic over the fall and .winter styles as if the t ''snow king'' had already arrived. t and indeed judging from some of the t exquisite. snowy "willow'' plumes that adorned two or three of the most r beautiful hats which were on display t one would think they had been i brought from the home Of the eter- -t nal feathery whiteness. I The prevailing colors for the com- I ing season seemed to be green, purple I and navy blue, or rather a Persan effect combining all three of these colors, touched up and brightened by c the loveliest gilt tinsel, gilt buckles, I and gilt bands. In fact everything I nearly has a touch of gold about it I this season, and the real colors of t the autumn leaves seem to be rivaled ( by these new and fashionable, crea- I tions, which the visitor finds at C. & i G. S. Mower Co's. millinery store. One of the first hats shown is a t large flat iron hat, navy blue, ex- r quisitely trimmed in the most beau- i tiful Persian ribbon, and a bird of t Paradise giving the crowning effect. s Another, which is probably one of a the handsomest hats ever brought to r Newberry, is a large white satin hat c faced with black velvet, and the b white willow plumes which adorn this exceedingly stylish hat are a dream of loveliness, so white and fluffy and I beautiful. The effect is very strik- c ing and this hat received no end of c admiration. One of the prettiest q features of this hat is the gilt gause d band with green leaves on it. r Another and we might say a com- t panion hat to this one, is a white satin- hat faced with velvet and trim- s med with ermine and ostrich plumes. I These hats are too dainty to be ac curately described. f Then t'here are two other very i handsome hats that might also be lassed together as they too seem to rival each other in the extreme sty- a lish effedt thiat has been obtained. v One is green velv2t with a handsome t Persian band and the top covered t by a magnificent Pocahontas feat'her. f It is somewhat of the Gainsboro ef- t feet and is flared on the side. While b: the other which would become some t styles of beauty more is a flat iron I shape. The chief color being pea cock blue. On one side is a very x strikingly handsome gilt buckle and f it also has one of the new Pocahon- c tas plumes, and there is a lovely d tinsel band around t-his hat. Another hat that needs mention y on aceount of the sweet simplicity b yet elegance which it presents is a h large Copen:hagen blue simply trim- r med in large shaded roses which v chang'e from an old rose to a pink. s This is a beautiful hat and very'. be- t coming to most of the ladies who y were at the opening. 's Then there was a large black hat t that everyone thought was handsome c as well as beautiful. The most ex- c ruisite thing about this hat are the two large black willow plumes. It isp raised to the left side. ( Of course there are all kinds of shapes in street hats and the stylish dress hats. There is the greatest r abundance of flowers, beautiful rib bons, pins, buckles and many other n little articles that go far towards ts making a hat the delight of a wo- 3 man's heart.s The opening was a decided success. t and the most courteous treatment is t~ shown everyone .by the accomplished t milliner. Miss Purs.ley, sand her very s pleasant assistants, Misses Joe Jones I and Sara Pope. C Other Openings Next Week. Next week there will- be others. The Cash Store and Mrs. Hair are no0w preparing for their openings ont Wednesday. and they have some treats in store for those who love pretty things. Mimnaugh will have his annual . opening on Wednesday a4nd Thursday and it is very evident from what has been the case in the past that at this establishment will be presented some of the most sivlish as well as nost elegant hats ever brought to Newberry.
