protection, although sunbonnet is
often preferred by those who can bear
them over their ears. A sweater is 4
great comfort, but whether it be taken
or not, large shawl or golf cape is
necessary for the hours Of resting in
the twilight. Comfortable shoes arc
the greatest essential to pleasant
trip, and these should be tried for Some
days before leaving home. There are
fine boots now made just for tramp

our feet have grown used to. Just
before starting We have heavy sole

both soles and heels. Unless they are

WOMAN'S @

FEATHERED MILLINERY DOOMED.
Success of Movement Against Slaughtc
ing Birds For Hat Trimmings.

Success OF movement AsdfhSt
ing Birds For Hat Trimmings.
Even the most pessimistic observers
of millinery in its relation to bird lie
have been forced to admit that tie
beneficial influence of the awakened
interest in nature has been marked
1t is rare, in Massachusetts,, at any
rate. to see hat trimmed with the
body or feathers Of any native song
bird. The threatened attack on guils
anu terms, moreover, two years ago,
resulted in the protection movement
conducted by William butcher, with
the help of the Thayer fund. AS q re-
suit of the generosity of the contribu-
tors to this fund and of the activity
of Messrs. butcher and Palmer, not
only is our coast patrOled as never
before, and the gulls and terms protect
ed in innumerable quantities on numer-
GUS breeding spots, but an almost un-
broken rampant of protective legisla-
ton has been enacted in the seabOard
States.
There is, however, in spite Of these
encouraging features of the contest be-
tween vanity and ignorance on the one
hand, and broader sympathies and en-
lightenment, one stronghold in which
the powers of darkness threaten to
make q desperate stand. 1t is an
nounced that the aigret, which has
never ceased to be more or less fash
ionable, will come into greater demand
than ever during the coming winter
1t is proved extremely difficult to in
fluence the wearers of these heron's
plumes, and the consequent slaughter
of the beautiful birds has gone on at
an appalling rate. The egret, once an
abundant bird in Florida, is now orc
one of the rarest inhabitants. The
trade is now supplied for the most
part from South America. The number
of egrets killed in VenezUela in 1898,
according to the official reports of the
British Consul was 100000. These
figures will not represent the entire
slaughter, however, since the feathers
are taken from the bodies of the par
ents when the young are helpless in
the nests, SO that the Wiping out of q
heronry means the death by starvation
of hundreds Of young birds. The Cell

The latest fad in character reading

Here are the chief points, given by an

Eyebrows that are arched show the

If the eyebrows are thick and we'll

Among the latest offerings of fancy

most recent of them.
