Mrs. Shakespeare sounds a bit odd
to our ears, and that is why thousands
of people will read with curiosity the
article under that title in the March
Ladies' Home Journal. The paper is
extremely interesting. It is by DR..

thority, who gathers together every.
thing that is known about Shakes.

most fascinatingly y.interesting article.
With the growing tastes for fancy
waists wholly independent of the
skirt the problem of economical
dressing becomes susceptible of an
easy solution this season. The same
skirt can be made to serve more than
one purpose, and on the other hand,
the bodice not being compelled to
conform in style to the latter, may
be put to several uses. This distinc-
tion between the two parts of the cos.
tune is greatly facilitated by the new
materials. Thus, the highly artistic
broche crepon of latest importations
is admirably suited to skirts both
stylish in appearance and practical
for everyday wear. The Mcdowell
Fashion Magazines just received con.
tain many designs of new models of
bodices as well as skirts, which rem.
der them unusually attractive this
month. They cost $3.50 each for a
years subscription, or IS cents pei

The Century for March has two
particularly fresh and unhackneyed
subjects. In these globe.trotting
days the account of "a new field of
travel" will be greeted with pleasure
by American travellers, and this Miss
Harriet Waters Preston and Mr.. Jos.

of Dalmatia and Albania, a region.

This puts your correspondent in mind of his youthful experience in the poultry line. He was told that putting an even number of eggs under a hen would result in very poor "hatch." But he ran the risk to try it, putting twelve eggs under hen that in due time came off her nest with a full "baker's dozen'' of little chicks.

 The little Vernon Brothers are to give an entertainment at the Congrega- tional church tomorrow evening. From the Willimantic Chronicle we clip the fol- lowing:
 tIA large audience greeted the little Yer non Brothers on their return engagement last evening at the Baptist church, the house being completely filled, and a more highly entertained audience would be inn possible to bring together. Every num- Der of the program was heartily encored and the applause was continuous. A committee from one of the leading church. es of Hartford came out to hear the con- cert and was so pleased with the enter I tainment they made an engagement for the first open date, under the auspices of the B. Y. P. Union in Hartford. While we have not doubt that many business men of this place are affected by the closing of the First National Bank at | Willimantic yet the statement, that each one had on deposit from $ 1 ,000 to $1O, ,000, seems to us like the anglers story of the size of the fish which was lost just before being landed.
