Hats are of various kinds, Lut we' will confine our t!eseniivo ntvoiint to tlie two most iiiipoiiaiit lii'i.uc'.es of liie hat industry . the making of felt hats, and of sill; liais, As now made, fe!t hats are of tlo'ee differ, nt kind-, plain soft, plain hard and "napped," or fur fells. Formerly all the proees-es of liat-lnaking Wcic tieeronioislied l y baud W'ul'k, but. I'o'.v luaelliilei'l i- lel'V largely employed, 'flic lil-t si:cee-.-flll lliiu lliliec for lids luiriios,. was ilevi-cd I ill Amei'ii a, and was iotioilnced into Lug-land :i In nil s;,.S; il i- now u-cil in illl larg !a!,li-!i!uei!s in Hiiro, e as well as III America. The liner felt lials are made entirely of fur, others of mixed fur and wool, iind y et i tlu-i's of wool only. In making fur hats, tiie important part of ihe apparatus Used consists of a cone of e ip !' of the size and foiio of :he hat to he made, pci'focaleil all nifr with small holes. 'I'his is made to i,o!.c on its axis slowly nvei- mi oriliee, under which there is ;l powerful fan, which main tains a sli'ong inward draught of .air through the holes iu the cone. On one siile of this is ii trunk or box, lo-arly lillcd with line fur clipped from the skill. This is lliro'vn ou: hy tlie raoid reV' Illtio.is of a l,ni-h-like cylinder, and the little cloud of si palate h.dis is drawn hy the current of ah- to tin-cone, and depo.si.cd upon its oilier suiface. When this is cover. I Willi a coating of loose lihers n wet cloth is wrapped around it, over which another cone is slipped, and tho whole rolllow-d, while iinolher copper cone is placed in position for eoiiliniiiiig the work. The doiihle cone taken away is put into ii tank of hot water, which makes the fur tena cious, so that it can he slipped oil the cone, taken to :i table, gently worked hy haiid-rolliiig in a piece of hlatikct, then iircvieil and folded into :i con vetiient shape, aud laid ii.-ide for the liual process of making the hat. If wool felt is to he iiiit le the wool is carded, then wound ui'oiind u conic;. block of wood. Two strips of the carded wood . are taken, w hicli are made tu cross ami reeross eiieh other diagonally in winding aleuit the cone Hy this plan the strength ii.nl elasticity of the felt ill'c holh greatly ilicl'e.'lscd. Into each cone of wo..l when taken from the hh.ek an inlayer is placed to keep the iii-ide from matting, after which they are folded iu eio'.hs ami put ou a irrfot'iitfd iron plate, through which steam is Mown. When well moistened and Heated they are placed lietWeeli hoards und siilijecied to n rubbing ac tion to harden tin in. The mats of fin er Wool felt are ill this singe sent to the hatters, whose first work is to "size" theui. This which is entirely a hand process, coi.si-ts in ruhhiug a pile of several of theui, first dipped in hot water and roll, d iu a piece of blanket upon a sloping tuUo. technically called i. battery, fiy ruliiiing the hat bodies iu this way for a short time they are re duced In iihout . ili.'-t lii cii their origi nal size, and the fell is rendered more coinptct. 'fiie "shells," as they are now caile l, arc next dyed of uny desired color, nfier which they are hloeked, which consists iu stretching tin ueshapeil shell over a wooden or p lister hloek of the -hap.' and size of the hats to he made. For still' liais, tiie felt is sain rated with ;i soluiioii of ,glile liefoi'e hloi king. lee next operation is pouncing." hy w hicli the rough sur face of the ll ll is smoothed. Both Mock ing and pouncing wore fornicciy done always hy hand, hut are now pi-i-formed hy niiichiiiery. After pouncing, the hat is again stretch 'd on a block and pressed into any shape desired w ith a liot iron. The trimming U done by girls w fin put iu the lining, the round lop piece, und the leather, ami sew on tlie baud nml binding, the hist mimed being usually put ou with a sewing mas chine. A hot iron is again run over the hat to press it into p. rfect shape, and it is ready for tin' packing box.
