wear.
Many spring hats are made entirely of
dark rich foliage; white roses or clusters
of white violets constitute the only trim

explaining the budget TO the House OF
Commons, Sir Michael Hicks-Beaeh,
chancellor of the exchequer, announced
that the ministry had agreed To the re-
Imposition OF the ancient duties on flour

been decided to impose a duty of pence
per hundredweight on -four and 5 pence
FER hundredweight ON wheat and grain.
The chancellor denied that the regis
tration duties on wheat and flour vio-
lated the principles OF free trade. or
would increase the cost of food. He
thought the duties had been recklessly
abandoned and declared their remission
