FASHION NOTES.


Hats are losing that look of compact
ness that they had in a marked degree
in the early spring. About Easter time,
when it was difficult to pick out the
new characteristics of the new mill
merry because of the remarkable variety
of the array it was pointed out that
almost no sprangling arrangements OF
trimming were seen. Since then MILL
merry have been branching out. Outing
headgear of the simple order, of course,
still holds to the rule, even sailors that
are very freely trimmed having their
garniture arranged in close set masses.
But with more dressy headgear 1t is a

LIE IN CHICIGO.

Life in Chicago isn't as hopeless as it
evidence that increased longevity re-
suits from the present systems Of pub
lie instruction, from the publication Of
waterways and the pavement of thor
oughfares, and through improvements
in the construction and sanitation of
dwellings, DR.. Arthur r. Reynolds,
Health Commissioner of Chicago, called
attention recently to the comparative
figures of mortality in that city. These
show that the average duration of life
there has more than doubled during a
single generation. In 1869 the average
years for the total number of decedents
were 1879. In 1898 they We're 294 years,
an increase of 115 per cent Based
upon figures of population, 1t has been
shown that with an average annual
death rate of IA per thousand during
1S94-'9S, compared with like rate of
40.6 per thousand between 1S45-'54, there
has been a saving of $50 lives per an
mum out of the average population of
the last five years, The conditions were
better, DR.. Reynolds pointed out, than
the showing for England and Wales,
made the subject of congratuIatory
comment during the Victorian jubilee
in 1897. Besides the increasing length
of life in Chicago, an important feature
of the health records is the marked re-
duction in the proportion of infant and
child mortality to the total mortality of
all ages They demonstrate reduction
of 80 per cent. under one year, of near
ly Sc per cent. between one and two
years, and of more than As per cent be-
tween two and five years.
