THE WORLD FASHION.
QUAINT OLD COSTUMES AGAIN COMING TO The
FRONT.
This Renaissance May Even Go Back as Far as
Shawls, But They VIII Never be Worn in
the Old Way-SOme New Designs
for Summer Dresses.

As halt in front Of the show win
dows and look upou the quaint types OF
headgear bearing such names as Mother
Goose, Mother Hubbard, Welsh Peas
ant, Hogarth and Mephisto, awaiting
patiently their turn for some dain ty
giriSh head to come along and nestle
under them. Pm almost inclined to
think that this fondnesS for the quaint
and picturesque is the first SYMPTOM Of
discomfort, the first manifestation Of
dissatisfaction with the outstanding,
bristling, crisp and perky styles of dress
that have now prevailed for a number
OF years, and that mayhap the gracious
Queen of Modes is on the point of de-
creeing a return to the long, the loose
and the flowing, TO scoop the scuttle
bonnets with trilled fronts, to short
waists and, oh, dear! even to shawls
again. Think of it! But of one thing
be assured, if we do so back to shawls
they will never be worn in the old way,
never, but the great designers will fold

dieting where their hats will lead them.
To Lunacy. / hear some crusty old
bachelor exclaim; but not so, for there's
kIienty of method in all this madness.
These curious bits of headgear are all
springes to catch male woodcock, and
the cup and saucer hat is the very latest
novelty in this line. The brim is the
saucer aud the crown the cup, the
lattet being filled with tall daffodils or
tulips, or with even an entire plant OF
dandelion. But in some the flowers
roses or double violets devoid OF stems
and foliage-merely fill the cup crown.
Anyway, the cup and saucer hat is
pretty piece of fantastic headgear for
round, girlish head with saucy face
in front of it. As usual the fashionable
girl will follow the natural procession
of flowers, starting out with buttercnps,
daisies, dandelion and fruit tree BIOS
SONS; later in the season reveling In
roses. and still later decking her lat
with the fruits and berries. 1t Is quite
safe to say that the pancake, or fiat, Ell
fects in hats have seen their last days.
The tall crown smothered IN flowers has
quite wiped it out of existence.

Forty-eight years ago Colonel NOW
General) West, of Cane Geek, this
State, visited Ticktown while on an
equestrian trip aboard his justly cele-
brated trick mule Mary, and was de-
lighted TO notice how hungry he was on
arriving there, and also how much more
so be was when he came away.
he also detected what the other citl-
zens had not before noticed, as there
we're no scientists then living in Tick
town, that the place had mean annual
rainfall and d view OF Pisgah and the

appetite he acquired while there, led
him TO consider the feasibility Of max

here, said he, wealthy men who have no
appetite may come and get mighty
hungry, il they stay long enough.
