shade in millinery is a lovely nut
brown, and is dividing the honors
with an equally exquisite shade
known as flame pink" Soft straws
in this latter shade are particularly
popular with milliners just now, who
veil them with tulle and generally
trim them with flowers in dead tones,
some times mixed with old lace.
One of the most lovely new models
in headgear l have seen was nut
brown straw toque, trimmed with
soft pink roses, with some old pat
termed coffee lace placed to droop
low over the brim. Shapes are very
fat and wide just now, and very often
they are curved at the side. Flowers
Will be immensely popular later in
the season. Many of the new hats
are worn tilted off the face, and cut
up the back TO show the new low
couture, the hrims being lined with
some controlling color. Some are
quite square in front, the entire
crowns being garlanded in flowers.
The wide boat shape is kept fiat and
simply trimmed with foliage.
rather doubt whether this new fiat
style of headgear will prove becoming
to many, but it is change; and so
we welcome it for its air of novelty
if not for its beauty and general be-
comingness. KATE GARDNER.

matching in color the goods, adds
much elegance to this new skirt, es-
pecially when the material chosen hap
pens to he crepe de chine or the all
conquering nuns yelling. Satin
faced foulard promises TO be among
the favorite materials for smart aft
ernoon frocks. The fancy of the mo-
ment is to trim these silken gowns
with one or more plated
ruffies, made of black point de esprit
net over one Of white taffeta silk. An
other fad, and a very pretty one, too,
Is to have a little cloth bolero
matching the prevailing color in
the silk. For instance, n laven-
der and white foulard was fin
ished with smart-looking bolero
fashioned of lavender cloth and
trimmed with narrow silver and white
braid and tiny silver buttons. An
othergown in which this idea was very
prettily carried out was in lovely
shade az rose pink lightly patterned in
black and white. The chic bodice was
rendered doubly so by means of a
iaunty white cloth bolero, cut very
short in the back TO show a folded
girdle of turquoise blue panne velvet.
j know the intermingllng of rose pink
and turquoise blue sounds rather dar-
ing. but i'm this particular instance the
combination was introduced by the
artistic fingers of a master hand, with
results that were simply stunning.
The extreme daintiness of the new
cotton fabrics cannot but appeal in
the strongest manner to the love OF
the beautiful innate in womankind.
Cool-looking dimities and French
lawns are to be reckoned among the
most attractive materials now on eX-
hibition. while the silk ginghams and
embroidered cotton batistes are love-
" enough TO tempt the unwary into
rank extravaganza. They come in
white, pale blue, light green and all
the pretty new shades of pink. Some
of the silk ginghams have n double
border of silk woven on the edge,
which is meant 10 be used as trim
ming in connection with much lace and
wards upon yards of the ever-popular
Persian ribbon. Many of the new
mercerized ducks and cheviots, cotton
though they he, are exceedingly beau
tiful, and so closely resemble the most
lustrous silk as TO make them quite
admirably suited for any but the most
dressy wear. Within the week | have
seen some very swell-looking tailor
gowns fashioned of both these mate
rails, those of cheviot being particu-
larly fetching. All were as carefully
tailored, even down to the smallest
detail, as though made of the finest
broadcloth. Some showed to particu-
lar advantage with their short Elton
coats tucked both back and front,

The Mystery of "Two Ten"

Baroness Burdette Coutts was once
shopping in Paris, and whenever
she went from one department TO an
other she was escorted by clerk, who
handed her over TO another attendant,
saving: 1.-TWO ten" Struck by the
popularity of the oft-repeated caba-
listic words. the baroness asked the
proprietor as she left the establish
ment:
PRAY. what does two ten mean?
I noticed that each clerk repeated it
to the next as | went from one counter
to the other
"Oh, il is nothing" replied the man.
at is just a password they are in the
habit of exchanging" But the baron
ess was not satisfied. When the por-
ter, mere lad, brought home her
purchase, she said TO him:
"My boy, would you like to earn
five francs?" OF course he would be
charmed.
"Then tell me what two ten means.
and | will give you five francs" The
youth looked at her in astonishment.
Don't you know, madam? Why, 10
means: Keep your eyes on her ten
fingers!
That solved the mystery. The rich

make interesting reading. The rigid
Puritan observance of the Lords day
had its origin with the Puritans of old
England and reached its fullest devel-
opment in Puritan New England, says
Donahoe's Magazine.
None OF the laws were more rigidly
enforced than those intended to pre-
vent the "prophaning of the Lords
day" The old records are full of CON
victions for violation of them. Capt.
Kimble, of Boston, was in 1856 set for
two hours in the public stocks for his
"lewcd and unseemly conduct" which
consisted in kissing his wife publicly
on the Sabbath day upon the doorstep
of his house, when he had just re-
turned from n voyage after an alb
scnce of three years. The story is
told of Robert Pike, of Amesbury,
that, having TO go ON n journey, he
waited patiently until the sun sank
behind the western clouds on Sunday
evening, and then mounted his horse;
but he had only gone a short distance
when the last ray CLEANED through n
break in the clouds, and the next day
he was brought before the court and
fined.

collars of embroidered lawn. These
collars are worn low on the shoulder
and give rather n slopng effect, with
an inner vest of tucked lawn and lace
to correspond. The popularity of the
lace blouse seems rather to wax than
wane, and just now it is the proper
caper to have it made of handsome
Maltese lace. | am bound to tell you,
however, that this lace used in the
making of the approved blouse, in
which much fine handwork must APP
pear, would run the price of the gar
ment up TO figure that would place
