For general every day use, with
lounge and business suit, the Derby or
stiff hat has the preference. Ii is now
the favorite; and the Alpine, or soft
felt, has only second place, until the
spring and warm weather. The black
Derby is the most fashionable. Tbs
reason is obvious. You can wear
black Derby with almost any shade OF
suit, ana its only restriction applies to
all hats of its shape, and that is that it
can never be worn with frock coat.
This does not apply, OF course, to tho
frock overcoat STRAIGHTFORWARD. known
MS the Chesterfield. The Derby this
autumn and winter is, indeed, very
pretty hat. The crown is Boiled most
gracefully, and not as high as that of
last year. The brim is wide, with much
curl, and there is a slight tendency to
come to point in the front and tho
back. The band is Of narrow ribbed
silk.
The brown Derby comes next in
popularity to the black. There are
several shades of tan and fawn.
The only drawback to brown Derby
lies in the fact that it cannot be easily
worn except with a brown or gray
suit, and with even the latter it is apt
to prove too striking a contrast in color.
This winter there has been introduced
a square Derby with high crown, the
facsimile Of that OF a groom or SER
wants hat, but little flatter than the
headgear of the bishops. The prevail
ing color is black the brown or fawn
being loo much like livery to ever be
come fashionable. For stout elderly
men this hat would be becoming but
it lacks smartness and chic, and l
In the late spring and the early
autumn tho soft Alpine hat is much in
vogue; but during the winter it is dis
carded in the large cities, as it is aHhit
negligent in styls. In the country it
is the bat of all others, aud in travel
ing it has not a rival. Harper Bazaar.

mr.. GLADSToNE's KNOWLEDGE.

A few years ago Mr.. Gladstone visited
Oxford, the scene Of his youthful

the rounds OF one Of the most interest
ing quadrangles. the University Press,
where the famous Bibles are printed.
When he had been conducted through
the various departments, and had been
allowed to handle the Cations and
other literary treasures, the superin-
tendent informed him that the men
employed in the bindery, composing

assembled in one place, and were
anxious to sec him.
Mr.. Gladstone consented to show
himself Entering the assembly room,

remember that there is something

After this introduction Mr.. Glad
