The motor car is rcsponsiblo for tho revival of another old fashiop, that of tho close-fitting straw bonnet (says an English paper). It is not tho coal-scuttle nor tho scoop-brimmed headgear that we called Early Victorian, but a bonnet that frames the face without projecting over it. It is trimmed with ribbon put on sedately" or perhaps with gauzo and a few (lowers that resist sun, dust, and wind as. well as may be. Over-this headgear a veil of gauzo to match tho trimming is worn, and anything mora fascinating or becoming to a pretty girl it is hardly possible to imagine.
