Fashionable Models In All Styles Of
Ladies' Hats and BonnetS.
The variety in hats and bonnets this
season has never been exceeded. They
run through wondrous grades of di-
minutive, medium. large. immense
and grotesque sizes. and individual
taste has unlimited scope. for there is
much to chose from in the way of style.
shape and adornment. The very pop
ular "Peek-a-boo" bonnets grade from
a tiny coquettish shape. having 4 little
penthouse brim. to an exaggerated
style like the old-fashioned caleche
bonnet. suggestive of the grotesque
head-dress worn by Buttcrcup of Pima
fore fame. This large model is this
season trimmed from the back of the
hat. and there is frequently no gar
niture on the front except the wide
band that surrounds the crown. There
are also innumerable styles in the
Gypsy. cottage, princess and other
French bonnets, which are invariably
chosen by women of elegant tastes.
In round hats are the Bismarck. tho
Smugglcr. the Vivandiere. the Leon
ardO da Vinci-Otherwisc called the
Gainsborough. the BOulanger. the
Princess of Wales and the large. elc-
giant Jaques Collet shape. The crown
of this hat is completely covered with
full ostrich plumes. and it is usually
made of black or goklen-brown velvet.
Among the trimmed hats exhibited. is
one in this style made of shot or
cauchemar (black with terra Gotta re-
fiets) velvet. trimmed with gold lace
and glittering jewel!cd pins. another
with canaque or Caledonian plush
adorned with sea-birds. Another alto
gether different style. with crushed
in crown and al upturnsst brim. is
made Of black velvet corded with scar
let. Around the crown is set wreath
of crimson velvet unmounted roses. A
second hat Of this shape is trimmed
with garnet scarabs. mounted in gold.
Nesting in torsatles of open-work silk
etamine in broche patterns. High En-
glish felt hats. with brims rolling close
to the crown, called the Torquay and
the Brighton. are severely plain in
the matter of garniture, there being
but two gray quill-feathers thrust !
through ssiff-~pped ribbon bow at
the left side These hats are worn !
with tailor suits, and the cloth caps in
jockey style are worn en- suite with !
long coats closely fitted. made OF plain. |
or striped tweed. and trimmed
with black fox or beaver. The caps /
are not deco rated in any way. Glossy
beaver hats with velvet brims are
trimmed with Roman scarfs. shot vel !.

question are settled. the woman-suf-
frage question must be settled. for this
question underlies both labor and
temperance. We have nothing to fear
from the votes of foreign-born women.
We need not fear the votes Of the bad
women. They are very small
minority.
l have visited thirteen State prisons,
and the officers tell me that eight
tenths of the convicts have been
brought there through strong drink.
The temptations that assail women do
not assail men, and vice versa. The
temptations of the women are the
jewelry. dry-goods and upholstery
stores. Her temptations come through
her intense and overwhelming love for
the beautiful. Men say women do not
want to vote. The umwillingness Of
women to vote is generally because of
the unwillingness of the men of their
households 20 have them vote.
In 1886. there were in the prisons Of
the United States $1,000 men and
5.OO5 women. The fact is there are
not many bad women. The bad.
woman scare is senseless scare. Men
and women do not make two classes,
but one class. If woman does not
have logic, she has something to make
up for that deficiency. she has intu-
ition, and one is as likely to come out
right as the other.
There is not question before the
people to-day that has not moral
basis. Only one-half the people-the
male half-is working at these prob
lens. Call in the other half, the fe-
male half, and you have the whole OF
humanity. If men have done grandly,
what will they not do with women to
help them? The whole is better than
the half, and there is the argument fol
woman suffrage in nutshell
