So ex acting were the customers and so painstaking the hat maker In creating Individual styles thnt she practically made each lint on her customer's head. To Insure a perfectly becoming con tour,' to arrive at Just the most becom ing angle, to mid to or lower the height of n crown or breadth of a brim, the French milliner poaea the hat In Its first crude form and then works with shears and pin» to have It exactly right for tba puivhaser.
