The Millinery Openings.

Last Thursday and Friday were fit
ting days for Brookhaven's two MILL
merry DISAPPOINTMENT days in our
commercial world that had been so
well advertised by the enterprising
and astute managers that they drew
not only local residents, but visitors
from adjoining towns and country
and even from the Capital city of the
State. The bright spring sunshine
seemed to have inspired an o'er-vault-
ing ambition for fresh and beautiful
consideration where becomingness and
artistic combination of style and color
were so temptingly seductive to the
fair purchasers. Bonnets visible sold
on sight, while orders for the $50 Pa
risian hats" were taken by Martin Nc
Grath quietly, in view of the disturb
ance that may be raised by pater ia
milids later, when easter Sunday"
makes its revelations! A rather I'M
usual incident of the day, were the or
ders for bandboxes with their cher
ished contents to be sent at once to
their various destinations, for fear that
alien fingers might mar the charm that
had won in the mental conflict, were it
ever so slight, between vanity and
economy in dress" So, by evening
there were many empty stands where
had erstwhile brilliantly shown the
elegant pattern hats, both at the
Racket Store and John McGrath &
Sons, but wouldbe customers felt con-
fident and gratified that Mrs. r. HI.
Hamilton or Miss Dodson, could with
their own deft fingers duplicate the
most elaborate or artistic Partisan
novelty. These leading ladies in the
millinery art will be kept busy for
many days to come. The airy, fairy,
spring like decorations of both the
Racket parlors and McGrath's were
we'll worth a visit in themselves. Mrs.
Hamilton's natural sense of beauty
and propriety manifested itself not
only in her many handsome millinery
creations, but throughout her apart
ments, while Martin Flood surprised
his most admiring friends with the
skilled adaptability to the occasion he
displayed in the minutest arrange
ment of every detail. Again are we
called upon to congratulate these two
popular firms for the success that
crowned their efforts at their Millinery
Openings. May it continue through
out the season.

All the attendants deserted their

rumbllng like that Of an earthquake

set up a roar Dewey's cat jumped
down on the back of the goat, and ev-

The EorgetmenOt Legend.

When God had created heaven and
earth and named all things, he also
gave each plant its particular name.
All flowers had to appear before the
Lord, and he named them according to
their colors. "Now," said the Lord to
them. never forget the names that
your Creator gave your
But soon afterward a little flower
with small sky blue petals came back
and meekly asked the Lord: "What
name did you give me? I've forgotten
it."
"Forgetmenot," replied the Lord,
and the little flower felt ashamed and
retired to the silent brook and hid in
the dense green Of its banks. But for
ever since it keeps its eyes turned up
ward to the sky, and. never again to
lose the memory of its name, it whis-
pers, "Forgetmenot, forgetmenot."-

What Il Khakfs

What Is khaki? Is a question put by
The Tailor and Cutter, which evident
ly Is not pleased with the new uniform
of the British soldier who has "gone
SOUTH" Khaki simply describes a col
or and not a class of material and, ac-
cOrding to our contemporary, is asso-
ciated with "vulgarity and dirtiness."
The word Is not to be found in John
son, Webster or Nuttali, but The En-
cyclopedic Dictionary gives 1t, and its
meaning there Is: IAN earthly or gray
clay color used to dye the uniform of
Indian soldiers and sepoys. A sect of
Brahmins called khaki because they
apply the ashes of COW dung to their
dress and persons
The Greek dictionary gives us kaa-
kaa, dirt; the Welsh vocabulary. the
German, the Spanish. even the Maori,
has the same word spelled little diff.
ferently, 1t is true, but In every case
the meaning is the same. 1t is Of the
earth, earthy-dirt, of the dirtiest kind;
