SHE GOT A HAT.

And Her Husband Will Not In Future
BE So Rough Upon MiIliners
From the Detroit Free Press
why don't women buy their hats as
| men do? Now. there's a derby that ONLY
| cost me couple of dollars, and 1 wear it
for two seasons and Chauncey Smith
took off a neat hat and handed II to his
wife.
THAT is your privilege" she responded:
do you wish me to wear hat like yours
They are all the style"
NO; 1 mean feminine affair with lace
and ribbon. Something that compares in
price with mine. You let your milliners
swamp you with their ideas and expendi-
| lures. Be original and make your own hats
and buy other things with the money
/ saved"
II am willing to try" said his wife, pleas
antly
That's right, Lottie. You know a man
doesn't know anything about a womans
hat. 1t Is the face under the hat that ap-
peals to u.s." and. lighting a cigar, he
staggered Off.
A day or two afterward business called
pretty girls in Gainsborough hats, who
were friends Of his wife. They were pretty.
but he knew they had always been out
ranked ran ,s by kottis and 1t gave him pleas
dowdy-looking girl approaching, and he
looked at her with a mental shock.
why Will women get themselves up in
such frightful shape? 1 dare say that
poor thing would be passably Looking
II she were stylishly dressed. Good heavens!
Lottfe?'
II made it myself" said Lottie, as she
shot past him, leaving him the picture of
modification and dismay.
You see,' she explained at supper that
evening, millinery is a profession 1 never
learned; and I haven't millinery fingers
| naturally, as very few women have. But
what is wrong with my hat?''
1T is simply frightful. that's ALL
81 made it for song"
II should think it came nearer being a
nightmare"
$50 do t. said his wife, decidedly. "a
milliner studies the features of her Gus
toners and makes hats to suit them, and
the effect is harmonious. My effort made
fright of me, and l can never improve.
Making hats isn't my forte.'
Have one made tomorrow and send the
bill to me- l hope you didn't see any of
our friends on the avenue"
oh said Lottie, demurely, none of
them recognized me in that hat"

ORCHARD AND GARDEN.

The garden must be mellow, rich
md kept clean.
Sawdust is good mulch for all kinds
of small fruits.
II done early, spring is the best time
to set out trees and plants.
Strawberries, If well mulched, are
less affected by change of weather.
After the orchard is in bearing II
does not pay to continue to crop it.
Currants and gooseberries need an
annual pruning to remove useless wood.
Tobacco water is one of the best rem
edies to destroy bugs and worms on
rose bushes.
Resin and tallow in equal purts make
Il good covering for wounds made in
!funing fruit trees.
Starvation and neglect are the great
profitable orchards.
One advantage In using commercial
fertilizers in the garden is their free
dom from weed seeds.
Small fruit growing may not pay the
farmer away from market, but he can
grow fruit for his own use.
Only well rotted manure. should be
used In the potato patch, and 1t should
be well worked in with the soil.
