New Hats.

Quantities of foliage are noticeable on
the spring hats. Sometimes one sees
hats made of rough straw, with folds OF
some transparent material punched up
with brown and green leaves. An coca
sional bunch OF violets peeping out
from among lot of leaves is just nicely
suggestive of springtime and flowers
1t is too early as yet to wear tho gor.
geous and full-blown flowers that belong
with summertime. Green and purple
grapes are much liked in millinery.

Partisan Ideas in Belts.

Short at the back and long at the
front is the fashion i'm waists. Tailors,
therefore, are making belts to go with
cloth skirts that come up high and
pointed at the back like a girdle and
narrow down to almost nothing at the
back. There are any number of ex-
quisite gold and silver filigree buckles TO
fasten the belts at the front. Stitched
collars and belts are we'll liked, and give
a very neat and tailorlike style to gar
ment. Even with very sheer and fluffy
bodices one will see belts ard collars OF
stitched silk, satin or panne. Ii is these
little touches of style that count for SC
much in the smartness of the seasons

their own fool. One could wish that
those who neglect their duty of properly
and efficiently nourishing their own
bodies would study the statistics of in.
sanity and its increase am)ng us. The
old Latin proyerb tells us that our aim
kshould be to keep a sound mind in a
sound body.
"Drink, and hurry, and worry send
most of the men to an asylum" says u
doctor, "while love affairs, combined
with a lack of food, throw most of the
women off their balance" The love
affairs would have but little influence
over them if they were properly fed; but
among the illusions in which girls and
women indulge is, that, as they care
very little about their food, so the lack
of it cannot have much effect upon
them. They rather despise men for be-
ing careful to have regular meals,
whether business presses or not, and are
inclined to vaunt their own superiority
in such respects. But if this disregard
of the natural instincts of hunger leads
US in the same path as "drink, and
hurry, and worry lead men, and if we
are to be Inundated by hyper -sensi-
tiveness in love affairs, how pre-
eminently does male common sense
stand out in the matter.

"We so often exalt our weakness into
something to be proud of. And. if we
go without lunch some day. an avenging
headache sweeps down and makes US
irritable. Surely, that is nothing to be
proud Of Or, if the men of the family
are dining out the women have tea, and
toast, and scrambled eggs, and next
morning wonder why they feel so limp
and as if everything to be done were
dreadfully troublesome and impossible.

The Level-Headed Never Lose Their

Worry is the twin sister of nervous
ness. Neither ST ou.d ever enter into the
daily life of any one. God, in His all
wise providence, put the head of "a hu-
man being on top, that all beneath it
might be subserylent to it.. There is
something wrong above the eyes, in the
region of the will power, when one be-
comes nervous in the sense of excta-
bility. know thy self is good; con-
troll myself is better. Worry and ex-
element never aided any one. Any fool
can get along when everything is all
right, but it takes wise man, a level
headed man, to get along and not worry
nor become nervous when everything
is all wrong April Ladies' Home Jour
