CHARMING MILLINERY
IS BEING SHOWN BY
MISS PEARL HARDY)
■y MARTHA RANDOLPH.
A charming millinery salon is that of 1
■Miss Pearl Hardy, in the Hillyer Trust I
building. It is "something different" '
in every detail from the usual estab- I
Ushment of the kind. An air of indi
vidual taste and a decided tendency
toward the French type of millinery
shop, .in .the artistic apartment itself,
in the courteous service of well
gowned, attract)'' e women, and in the
charming chapeaux on display, offers ;
an irresistible appeal to the woman of I
discrimination.
Mise Hardy's shop is modeled after •
the chic little shops in Parts, with its I
parlors finished in a soft French gray
and with rugs and draperies In coleur
de rose.
In these artistic rooms the woman on
a shopping: inspection comes in contact
with the well gowned women of the
city ai)d with many out-of-town peo
ple who have the discriminating taste '
and the knowledge of w here to find the
hats which appeal to their artistic ap- '
preciation.
Miss Hardy, the charming young!
woman who owns the shop and under i
whose exquisite taste the hats are se
lected and prepared, save: "My cus
tomers are of the very best people, and
that is what contributes largely toward
making my work a real pleasure They
appreciate' mv sincerity in giving them
the best, and also my ability to suit
the individual taste."
There are no wholesale duplicates of
hats in Mis? Hard' 's shop, and the
woman who recognises her style in a
pretty hat can be assured that her sat
isfaction in its- charm w ill not be dis
pelled after the purchase by seeing on
another'woman a duplicate of her own
possession. Individual expression is be
stowed in cverv creation in Miss Har
dy’s establishment. She suits the hat
to the wearer, and with her good taste
never fails to give the right hat to the ;
right woman. And that is one of the 1
most important things to be observed 1
in the selection of a hat. and one that |
the average woman most often neglects i
The hats now on display in Miss I
Hardy s parlors are beautiful exam- i
pies of the summer's styles. They have-i
the soft', rolling, upturned, wide brim I
effect, with garniture of softly tinted ;
flowers or ribbons. There are also ex- j
amples of the tailored style w hich de- •
pend for their effect orTsmart lines and ;
I their suitability to the face they frame. ■
The range in prices for these hats will !
suit every taste and noon the simple 1
made hat of small price is bestowed the .
same thought as to detail and becom- j
ingness as upon the handsome dress ■
hats for afternoon and evening wear.
Associated w.ith Miss Hardy In het
salon is Mias LAie. of New- York, who is
winning the esteem and confidence of
the patrons of this shop by,her charm
ing personality and good taste in her
work
The shop occupies an entire floor sit
uated in the new building of the Hill
'■er Trust Company, and may be quick
ly reached by a competent and cleanly
elevator service.
