make it higher. Take all the old trimming off,
and remember you have more latitude this year
than last for color. II the hat Is

spray IN run through a slit in the straw in the
back and comes out against the hair. This is o
great trick this season in the trimming OF hats
You know how often when the hat is Just right
an end OF a feather, a stem Of a rose or a bit Of
ribbon won't go anywhere. just snip q little
suit in the hat and push the offending piece
through. Like as not it will come out in quite
the right place on the under side or, il not.
you can tuck it away into harmless obsourity
there. The girl who wears such a made-over
hat needs only fresh complexion and eyes
that will come out prettily with the green on
the hat to be every bit as lovely as the girl
with the brand-new hat Of the very latest style.
The crown is pretty much suppressed in
many hats. 1t is represented sometimes by q
hole. and again by beauteous mixture of
feathers, lace and flowers. In the former case
the hat is usually the dress or theater hat; in
the latter 1t may be what is termed a simple
hat. There is some effort against the ORDERLY
and mathematical arrangement to which we
have all been broken in, so much indeed, that
the top OF a hat has sometimes the effect OF a
fiat plate upon which is served up a very pretty
array of dainty things. It is a relief from the
style that binds dainty flowers and laces to
wire and sets them a shooting upward and for
ward. Black lace straw is much used for hats
like the last model pictured. This is fiat on
top and has fairly wide brim. Only the out
side two or three rows Of the straw

NIGHTS FOR COURTING.

Seeing Ones Best Girl.

Fashions Decree Concerning the Times for
Seeing Ones Best Girl.
From st. Louis Exchange.
"One doesn't hear as much now about set
nights for seeing ones girl" said Henry B.
Jones Of Portland, Greg. at the Southern. Il am
led to speak Of this matter by hearing the ex-
cuse which a young friend gave me for not
being able to give me much attention Of even
ings during my sojourn here. He said he had
to call and see his girl every night. If he
missed night, he declared, she worried and
cried and carried on SO that she looked bad for
a week after. and he found it difficult to explain
that he hadn't spent the time with some other
young lady.
ago, either-Sundays and Wednesdays and Fri
days we're the regular nights for seeing one g
best girl. She expected you those nights and
was ready for you. The other nights Of the
week she spent as she pleased, and if you called
you surprised her. Then Sunday began to get
common, and it was called the servant girls
night, just as you call Saturday night at the
theaters "nigger" night, and it was cut out OF
the counting schedule. Soon Wednesday and
Friday followed. and the last remember is
that Tuesday and Thursday became the fashion
able evenings for spooning. l know that my
last best girl, who is now my wife. made me
change my visits to Tuesday and Thursday be-
cause some working girls in the neighborhood
had their swains visit them on Wednesdays and
Fridays. Now every night is lovers night, and
the parlor sofa and the front gate have great
deal more weight to carry and work to do than
they did formerly. 1 suppose the scarcity OF
young men has something to do with the aver
age girls selfishness in keeping her sweetheart
to herself every night in the week"

BRIM BENT PICTuREsoUELY.

don't happen &c think of that the effect does
not strike you badly. A model of the big leg
horns is sketched herewith. Its big black brim
Is turned mp on one side. and it is trimmed
with large green ribbon bows and white flowers.
At the side is placed a large bow Of green rib
bon.
So varied are the shapes, trimmings and
colors and SO lawless seem the combinations
that it is enough to convince the shopper that
anything will do. The hat Of today often does
look so simple. Likely as not it is Just a fat
piece of straw with no brim, or rather, all brim,
and 1t seems TO merely touch q band that in it's
turn rests lightly the head. spray Of
flowers seems to lie just where 1t pleases and
there Is a bit of ribbon, perhaps Just half
caught knot-that is all Home you 90 and in
course OF a short time you turn out your edi-
ton of that kind Of hat. You have made ND
your mind not to keep trying it on while you
make 1t because, after all, one can't tell any
thing about half-made hat and it is so dis
couraging. To be sure. it looks more dis
couraging when it is all done. but then you
know how hats are this season, they look like
nothing at all in the hand and they are
so pretty on the wearer, SO you put yours on.
1t would be all right il the flop only came
little further to the side, and IL
1t would stand a little differently in the 'front.'
That. you think. is because the straw is so soft,
30 you put little stitch in to remedy that
Then you have TO put in another stitch to coun-
tersct that one and make q drop. The result is
. dissipsted joggle and a wobbley effect that

covered with a careless array Of black lace and
pink roses, with here and there a tuft of wheat
grass in black. Such a hat is put on by pink
strings that pass either side of the knot Of hair
in the back and loosely cross to come around
IN front under the chin. A pretty notion is to
pass the ribbon through few inches of lace
straw at the top. 1t adds to the daintiness. and
secures the ribbon against ugly twisting at the
top. and the rumpling SO caused. Never has it
been more necessary that everything should be
fresh and looking as though just made. No
rumples. no mussed bows. everything must be
crisp and new looking, no matter how inexpen-
sive and inelaborate. While all colors seem to
be worn together. and while there has been an
evident effort to make hats not matching the
gown the correct thing, you are safe still to let
harmony and matching rule your selection.
The simpler your theater hat, the prettier
and the more becoming it is. The prettiest
seen lately was nothing in the world but a fillet
of cut jet. Right in front two jetted antenne
stood upright That was all there was to 1t,
and the girl who wore the pretty thing did not
have Greek profile. either. The little fat pam
cake hats that were WORT last year with fare
up right in the center Of flowers or ribbon
can be worn again this year, only the fare-up
Is cut down much, or entirely removed. Those
made with a tall bow in the back and a short
bow in the front have the bows removed. or
else the short bow is divided into two, and one
put on each side, the tall one being entirely
suppressed.

You Cant Believe the Newspapers.

From the Detroit Free Press.
"Some years ago" said the man. who might
have been untruthful and might not, II was
in q small town in New York state where
Chauncey Depew was billed to make a speech
that night. and it happened 1 stopped at the
same hotel he did. just after supper the editor
of the local paper dropped in to see Mr. Depew.
and the distinguished gentleman proceeded to
have some fun with the country Journalist.
He had, too, aud every now and then he
rounded up sentence against the editor by
saying oh, you can't believe everything there
is in the newspapers the editor having used
newspaper matter very largely in his argument
After the speech making was over the editor
met Mr.. Depew in the hotel Office again and
there was a big crowd present.
"'Well. my friend inquired the genial
Chauncey, what did you think of my speech?'
The editor hesitated a moment
"'Are you, he asked solemnly. the genuine
Chauncey NJ. Depew?'
Certainly. Why notT laughed Mr.. Depew.
"'Are you the one that all the newspapers
have been saying was the finest speaker, the
greatest talker, the sharpest stumper and the
brightest wit before the public?' pursued the
editor.
az guess I'm the one.' blushed the gentle
man. 'Why?'
"'Oh, because you can't believe everything
there is in the newspapers and Chauncey

Broad brimmed hats frequently have the
brims turned straight back against the crowns,
in something like the old three-cornered effect
except that there are very few corners allowed.
Right in front the brim goes straight back
from the forehead and the hair, and either q
buckle or u rosette is placed there as an orna-
mental finish. The effect is becoming if a lit

to become promptly common. Very big leg

A Remarkable Shad Story.

FROM the Ashevllle On. CD Citizen.
In May, 1888, an official of the fish commits
sion, who had been sent out with cans Of shad
fry to deposit in the waters of western North
Carolina, lost himself and his fry in the wilds
of tho mountains around Asheville. He was in
predicament. The stream in which be was TO
deposit the shad fry was on the other side of
the mountains. The only available place to
deposit the fry was in the Swannanoa. and if
deposited there the nearest seaport for the
young shad would be the Gulf Of Mexico, over
200 miles distant from Ashevile.
1t was urged that the shad was a stranger to
the gulf and possibly would no. thrive in its
waters; that the route the Young fish would fol-
low from Asheville was, under the best condi-
tions an unusually long one for migratory fishes
to obey the instincts which guide fish in their
multiplication: that the intermediate waters
we're warm and muddy. and that so many dan
gers beset them, both in their infant stage or,
that return at any future time was very prob
lematical
But there was nothing else to do. The cans
OF the young fry were brought up into the city,
and about o'clock that night we're taken out
to the Swannanoa river. Major W. E. Breese
took the agent in charge in his buggy to the
river, and the cans were placed in o wagon. and
then, In the presence OF Major Breese and his
son, William E. Breese, IT,, Messrs. Thomas
Porter, Erwin W. Patton, John s. Rice and
Jack Patton, the cans were emptied into still
eddy in the river, a short distance above the
bridge, and left to their hazardous future This
was at q point about half mile above the
junction OF the Swannanoa with the French
Broad.
Yesterday morning, while Thomas Porter
was examining his fish trap, about 200 yards
below where the fish were deposited. he took
out shad fifteen inches long and weighing one
pound and half. 1t was unmistakable shad
in poor condition from its long Journey but
nevertheless. true a shad as ever sought the
Cape Fear, Neuse or Roanoke river. 1t was
brought up to the city and critically examined
Several things were thus proved. Shad will re-
to tn Which the spawn fry
up or down the long system Of rivers leading
to the Gulf Of Mexico, and they can thrive in
the waters Of that sea- thing that has been
doubted. II one fish returns to its birthplace,
others will do the same, and this fact may be
OF much great future importance to the nabobs
Of the French Broad valley.
