Some of the hats be ing shown are tine pressed milaiis, others of imported hand sewed straws. Tho noted absence of many of Miss Webb's models and those bearing tickets marked "sold" havo evidenced the fact that the ladies who have at tended have not only admired but have purchased ns well, which has proven gratifying to the tlrin mciu-1 tiers of this popular little shop.
