ACENTURY OF EASTER HATS
The whims of Dame Fashion In
Hundred Years.

The Whlms of Dame Fashion In
Hundred Years.
The periods of century are punctu'
ated by its hats, and woman's headgear
for the past 100 years illustrates with
striking effect the varying whims OF
time. Beginning with the first year OF
the last century, Dame Fashion was
modest and inexpensive, for then, as
now, the modes came from France, and
simplicity was prevailing in Paris at
that time, in striking contrast to the
extravagances Of the aristocratc ladies
who lost not only their hats but their
heads in the Revolution. Ten years
later the fashionable hat resembled an
elbow of stovepipe more closely than
ANYTHING else, and women Of the pres
ent day have at least one thing to be
thankful for-that such styles 10 longer
prevail. The bonnets of 1925 and 1880
were pleasantly picturesque, the one
with it's high crown, the other with
deep poke brim, so becoming to a pref
ty face and offering such charming
D0chSEOuuu lOI IInSiSlo UoppAho oAONA
the ears. Flowers and ribbons galore
were used on these old time hats,
which ten years later were modified
into a simplicity almost Quaker-hke, as
an 1910 illustration will evidence.
Reaching the turning point of the CEN
tury, the hats suddenly became fiat and
shapeless-no crown, no brlm, simply
piece of silk shaped to the head in hood
fashion and really making most fas-
cinating bit Of headgear, an unobtru-
sive frame for the pretty face below.
With the next type all are familiar,
for whose mother has not worn hat
in the styles Of the sixties? How old
fashioned it looks now, yet with GER
tain quaint charm Of its own, fur pref
cradle to the fashionable but hideous
shapes of the next twenty years! Va
ried and outre were the styles Of this
period, the last ten years offering a
welcome relief. The hats Of today are
the prettiest Of the century in point Of
materials and making. There. is more
art in the designing Of millinery today
than at any time during the past hun
dred years, more taste and skill in the
manipulation Of materials and more
elegance and expense in their makeup.

ALL OVER THE HOUSE.
"A Few Usefui Hints on the Care Of
Furniture Woods.

The care Of furniture woods is an
exceedingly interesting part of the
intelligent housekeeper's duties. The
daily light busting must supplement
the weekly rubbing if the "bloom,"
in this instance not desirable, is to
be kept away. As a rule, the use of
oily restoratives is to be deprecated.
Unless applied by tireless arm and
thoroughly rubbed in and thereaft-
er the piece of furniture kept in per-
feet polish By daily rubbing the oil
is sure to form a crust sooner or
later which is gummy to the touch
and not pleasing TO the eye. For
this reason new furniture should be
kept as long as possible without the
application of such restoratiyes.
Furniture which has been finished
with shellac or varnish, whether in
glossy or dull finish, should never
be cleansed with soap or water. Soap
is made to cut oily substances, and
in the performance of the service
for which it is made eats the oil out
of the waxed, oiled or shellacked
surface it touches and destroys it.
Where white spots appear on pol
.ished surfaces from the dropping of
liquids or from heat the immediate
application OF raw linseed oil will
generally restore the color. The oil
should be left on the affected spot
for several hours or over night.
Alcohol will perform the service if
applied at once to rosewood or high
ly finished mahogany. In each in
stance, when the color has returned,
the spot should be repolished with a
piece of cheesccloth moistened with
turpentine

Plenty of Bags.

Every closet door used to have its
cretonne shoe bag, but in these ad-
vanced days boot trees have taken
its place, the shoes being kept in
shape longer than when they we're
carelessly thrust into pocket. The
bag has other uses, however. Nit
tens, rubbers, clean dust cloths, a
ball Of string, numerous small
things which one would wish to have
close at hand, are conveniently kept
in pockets. The trouble is that they
are too apt to become receptacles for
all sorts of rubbish. The domestic
science experts who propose to abol-
ish the kitchen pantry and whose
motto is Everything in sight"
would probably object to them on
this score.

The PaSchnI Egg.

The resurrection took place just
after the Jewish feast of the Passover,
which was held on the 14th day Of the
moon, being approximately the time Of
the full moon or what is termed the
paschal full moon. Tie word Easter
old English, Eastre; German, Ostcrn-
means the festival named from the
Teuton goddess of spring, Austro.
The custom Of distributing the
''pasche cge" has been almost always
universal among Christians, and for
centuries children have enjoyed hard
boiled dyed eggs, which they roll about
or throw and finally eat. Among the
Tyrolese bands Of musicians traverse
every valley singing beautiful Easter
hymns to their guitars, calling out the
people to their doors, who join them in
the choruses and together rejoice OIL
this glad anniversary. The paschal
eggs, which have formed necessary
part of all Easter offerings for centu-
ries past, are not forgotten. The good
wife has these ready prepared, dyed,
inscribed with notices made inefface-
able by a rustic process Of chemistry,
and when the children bring their bas-
kets they are freely given in return
for their Easter carols. Unless the egg
and the rabbit arc symbols Of spring
as being the genesis of development
and the plentiful prey Of the early
huntsman, it is not clear why these
cmblems should typify the present
festival.-New Orleans Timcs-Demo-
